    we had read reviews, and also been recommended to make a visit. Firstly Folkestone itself was a total surprise to us, and we urge you to visit if you have never been before, and secondly in a town of some exceptional restaurants, Rocksalt stands high above others. The location on the bank of the harbour is stunning both day and night. We entered through the bar and had a cheeky cocktail, which was well made, and not crazy prices. Then downstairs to the restaurant and our table could not get much closer to the harbour. The greeting of all the staff was genuine and warm, and the whole process of going through the menus and ordering was as simple as it could be when trying to choose from some amazing choises. The quality, freshness and execution of every dish was top shelf, and we thank the whole restaurant and kitchen for giving such a great evening.
