RIOJA & BAROCCA LOUNGE enjoy a unique location bordering the Solole Private Reserve in the Noordhoek Valley. Where customers can eat in close proximity to such African wild life as buffalo, springbok, ostriches & a wide variety of birdlife.

Situated opposite the main RIOJA restaurant is BAROCCA LOUNGE that offers cocktails, wood fired pizzas, antipasti platters, & light meals in relaxed, comfortable surroundings, both inside & al fresco. In addition, sports lovers can enjoy all major televised sports events on a large plasma screen. Every Saturday evening from 8pm, you can enjoy a great party vibe with resident DJ Gotz Scheffel. Strictly over 30’s only! Between 8pm and 9pm on Saturday is Happy Hour, offering drinks at great discounted prices.

RIOJA is highly rated by local restaurant guides & has won prestigious Diners Club wine awards. Chef Simon & his wife Ceri’s extensive international training & experience, when they were called upon to cater for rich & famous, is reflected in the wide range of local & international dishes on their menu.

Simon’s insistence on using only the freshest of produce has resulted in the creation of an adjoining Chef’s vegetable garden & free-range chicken enclosure. The chickens absolutely love to have visitors, so take a stroll around to see where all the fresh produce comes from!
Enjoy your lunch or dinner whilst the kids stay entertained on the jungle gym & there is a kiddie’s menu.

There is plenty of secure and complimentary parking. RIOJA also has a separate room for private dinners & functions. It’s the perfect place to unwind.
