Le Rocher - Rouen

We found this place by chance whilst browsing. The first thing we liked was that it seemed 'low key' yet all the tables seemed be be full of locals all tucking into a variety of Moules. As a table emptied we dived in and found that basically it concentrated on Moules with thin Frites in huge bowls. We order one lot with cream and another with curry (!) and both came accompanied with steaming bowls of frites which were filled up as the waitress passed. The food itself was great including the pudding 'Cafe Gourmand' (delicious) and the price was very reasonable. Service was very pleasant and just for info, the toilet was spotlessly clean. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Ps... we had our 7 year old with us who apart from munching away on my plate of modules, also tucked into the children menu which came with a drink and pudding. No complaints from him!!

We love mussels dishes with lots of fries, so we were in our element at Le Rocher. My wife was thrilled that, in addition to the usual varieties (beer, curry, etc.), Le Rocher has varieties using the popular local cheeses in the broth - Camembert and Roquefort. So she ordered the Roquefort, and loved it so much that we had to go back a second time.The four star rating is because the mayonnaise to go with the frites was from a package. If you wanted ketchup or mustard, also from a package. And once you squirted them out, if you didn't want to drizzle them over your frites (not my favorite thing), you had to hollow out a piece of bread to serve as your dipping bowl.The frites were of the string variety - not crisp, but good. And I have to give a shout out to their waitress - I forget her name, but she was Moroccan (a university student who would have rather been in Paris hanging out in clubs), and super-friendly and we loved chatting with her.

This small restaurant serves nothing but Moules et frites, in many sauces you could ever imagine - Camembert, Neufchatel, Lobster bisque, curry, carbonara....to name a few. You can change the frites to a green salad if you wish. Rue eau de Robec is a quaint street very close to the Abbaye St-Ouen. The ambience is pleasant, service friendly, very reasonable price, large portions.....can't ask for more. A MUST if you visit Rouen and a mussels lover.

It's a small restaurant and at first glance you are not sure you have the right place. But if you are truly into mussels and just want to go wild, this is the place. They serve them any way you can imagine and they are full pots of delicious goodness. Unlimited fries and bread. That with the few beers we consumed as well, it was a perfect meal for my husband and I. The service as well was friendly and enjoyable.They have tables inside and outside and probably it's a good idea to call to be sure you can get a table, especially in season.

After reading some great reviews about this place on TripAdvisor my parents and I decided to have dinner at Le Rocher: a lovely little mussel restaurant. Since we're from Holland we eat mussels quite frequently, but only with herbs and vegetables. When we arrived (around 7:30 PM) there were only two other couples dining, but around 8 PM the place was packed. We ordered two big (1 kilo) mussels with camembert and one big mussels with roquefort. Honestly.. best mussels I have ever tasted. We wanted to order fries on the side but our lovely waitress told us they were included. The menu also includes German and English translation, although the staff doesn't speak anything other than French. They did their best to make themselves understandable, which was very kind of them. We had 3 kilo mussels, a huge amount of fries, baguette, 1 liter of water and half a liter of white wine for 60 euros. I will definitely visit this awesome little piece of mussel heaven again!
