    Hello Di Thank you for your 5 stars and feedback regarding the door to the deck being open on such a hot day. Usually would be closed to assist with cooling unless lots of traffic in and out from the deck. We are so pleased though to hear you enjoyed your recent dining with us and look forward to hopefully welcoming you back again soon. Kind Regards Kirstine, Daniel & The Rocks Team

    Good fast service and great staff. If you like seafood, it's a good restaurant. Could use a little more variety on the menu though. Other than that I would go again.

    We had the $99 PP Seafood Platter. It was really yummy and well presented. Unfortunately we had to tell them to slow down the courses. Our waiter told us we had to leave in ten minutes for the next sitting but he had forgotten to order our dessert. He happily let us stay and brought out our dessert and it was delicious.
