Rocket Restaurant wishes to advise you that as of July we no longer offer BYO on Saturday evenings, However, from Monday - Friday bottled wine and champagne may be brought to the restaurant. Corkage is $10 per bottle.

 

Rocket had its first seasonal degustation night in late May. Held on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Fair Gamie evenings were terrific fun, Richard's five course menu being matched with wines by Alex and Natasha.

These themed dinners are planned for the beginning of every calender season, with the next to be in early October.
