  To my knowledge, One Rochester is a wine bar set amongst a tropical garden landscape, not sure if there are decent mains for dinner. The most I'd expect is finger food.

  Well, they're not cheap
  Expect average wine bar prices.
  If you're looking at Al Dente and Prego's as well then it's within your budget.

  palm beach isn't exactly that cheap too. but then, what's more important for u? price of food? ambience?
  
  for parking, u can try esplanade or if u can walk further, then its either marina square (free, i guess) or lau pa sat (alongside the road > illegal), clifford pier (also illegal). those aunties are rather on nowadays. do be careful.
