Quote

“We just want to do fun things. We want to be the neighborhood hang out, on our patio, in our bar, after work, after dinner. Who doesn’t love oysters and beer?” – Jay Pierce, ROCKSALT Executive Chef

Other ROCKSALT Tips

• They’ve begun some “whimsical offerings” as Chef Jay Pierce calls it during the week. They encourage patrons to “steal” their logo pint glasses on Sunday nights with the purchase of a beer. They also give away Koozie on “Koozeday”

Today and every Sunday, when you buy a draft beer, we’ll look the other way as you “Steal the Glass!” #NCBeer #CLT

• Half price, raw bar fresh oysters from 11:30am- 4pm each Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
• Recommendations: Brutus Salad, anything on the half shell, mussels, and the Halibut Steak. I love how they take fish that perhaps diners are not familiar with and prepare it in a fun way.
• Sit at the high top table by the kitchen. It’s fascinating to see your food being prepared for you right then and there. Great view of their famous, wood-fired grill.
