About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
Anchoring the renaissance of Rockefeller Center is Le Rock, a thoughtful revamp of a historic Art Deco space from James Beard Award-winning chefs Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr. From the team behind some of Manhattan’s best restaurants (including Frenchette and Le Veau d'Or) comes an updated take on a grand brasserie in a iconic space, hailed by The New York Times in a Critic’s Pick three star review as “truly exciting”. Though focused on French cuisine, the location is iconic New York - Le Rock is located on 50th St between Fifth and Sixth Avenues adjacent to the Theater District, as well as MoMA and Radio City Music Hall. Open six days a week (closed Sunday), weekdays with continuous service from lunch until 9 pm.

Why they're an Icon

  • Award icon
    James Beard Award2025

From the OpenTable editors: From the same restaurant family as beloved bistro Frenchette, Le Rock jazzed up Rockefeller Center when it moved into the ground floor in 2022. Expect the same impeccable service, but true to the iconic skyscraper’s Art Deco style, even more over-the-top glamour in the design details. This is the scene for soignée seafood towers, saucy bison au poivre, and showstopping tarte tatin. No wonder Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr have been named James Beard Semifinalists for Outstanding Restaurateur.

    Vastly overpriced, absurdly/offensively small portions [especially given the prices!!!], and the room was too loud to engage in conversation. Apart from my company, hard to think of a less pleasant lunch experience.

    The chicken salad I ordered was not that good. Only brown meat and chewy. It was too bad. I was really looking forward to a great lunch.

    Food was on. Decor was ok. Not fabulous, not worth the hype. But ok. Good for corporate cards, but wouldn’t go on my own dime

    Very disappointing. Food very mediocre. Had to wait for our table with a reservation when there were several empty ones and walk ins were seated. Simple cocktails not up to par and expensive. Server was excellent and friendly Extremely noisy. Would not go back.

    Great spot for a pre-show dinner. Made a meal out of the amuses / apps section and it was perfect for 2 people who just wanted a light meal. Great service and a beautiful room.

    Le Rock is to French cuisine what the Olive Garden is to Italian cooking.
