    Another great meal in one of our favourite restaurants. From the outset the service was oiutstanding; all the staff are very nice, professional and friendly. The food's excellent, two of the highlights being the oysters and the skate. Highly recommended.

    Amazing food! I booked the 'Festive Party Menu', the Rocksalt fish soup was full of flavour and the dark chocolate mousse was the best dessert I have had in a while. Lovely views and Christmas decorations. I would definitely recommend to a friend and would love to return in the summer.

    What a great find in Folkestone. This is one of the best fish restaurants I’ve been. For lunch we had some starters that were very tasteful and exceeded our expectations. We selected an English wine with the food which was a perfect paring. Service was very good, good atmosphere in the restaurant overlooking Folkstone harbour. Can definitely recommend Rocksalt.
