    Was looking forward to another lovely experience but it was so cold in the restaurant, was glad to gi upstairs to have our coffee. The day was bright and clear and cold, so was expecting it to be warm when having our meal but instead we got colder and colder. Felt we could not endure having coffee afterwards there so opted to go upstairs instead. Here it was lovely and we started to feel more comfortable. Unhappily for us, not the experience we had had before.

    The set menu was lovely. Would be nice if it were also inclusive of vegetables as that really adds to the cost. Took two people who had never been before and they were impressed.

    After avoiding Rocksalt for many years after a very mediocre visit just after they opened, we decided to give them another chance with the set menu and what an awesome difference. I had oysters which were the perfect appetiser. Followed by delicious fish soup for me and a fresh salad for my wife. We both had the butternut risotto and, while I pride myself on a very good butternut risotto, this was on an exceptionally higher level. The food was amazing, the service attentive and the ambience great looking out on the harbour. It won’t be very long before we return.
