Beautiful location on the water in downtown Rockport. The main dining area is tiny and because it's directly overlooking the water, it's crowded and gets loud. They'd benefit from sound deadening material on the ceiling or walls. There's a small deck with tables in warmer months too.Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie and vegan options, including vegan burger bun and vegan cheese.Parking: In the winter, there is parking directly in front of the restaurant on the wharf. That parking isn't really available in summer due to the popularity. There is also street parking and a couple of lots in other parts of downtown Rockport, then you walk to the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu with chicken fingers, burgers, etc. Extra large crayon pack (6 colors)!

We were in the area and wanted a few appetizers before our drive home. We discovered this place and were pleasantly surprised by the Caribbean influence of their dishes. From reading the menu I could tell the chef or owners had a unique background. In addition, the food was very flavorful and tasted authentic to the dishes we’ve had in the Caribbean. Although the inside aesthetic didn’t really match this vibe. Seemed like they just renovated. I think the place would look more authentic and in line with the vibe they’re going for if they were to paint the walls with some more color, dimmer lighting, music, etc. overall great experience and would come back

Fleur Cuisine is truly a fine dining experience and the Best dining experience I've ever had. The clam chowder is the creamy and loaded with the most tender clams. Alfredo with chicken was superb and the chicken was cooked to perfection. The lobster ravioli in vodka cream sauce was amazing and the ravioli were very generously filled. The grilled chicken sandwich was delicious. Key lime pie for dessert was so good! All of the food was fresh, perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. Great atmosphere and the service was excellent. Daphnee took time to converse with us and make the experience personal. We also purchased a bottle of their homemade Creama to take home...oh my!!! Truly Amazing!!! I wish we lived closer but we will definitely be back and can't wait to try other items from the menu! Truly magnificent!

This restaurant is a hidden gem ?. I can only imagine if it was located in a big city. Anyways... the food was excellent and very delightful. I have been to hundreds of restaurants in the quest of unique and original taste and, of course, to drop them a review.I wasn't looking for this one, but I'm glad I went there. The staff is friendly on top of it.I definitely plan to go back with some friends this week and in the future as well.

A gem of a restaurant in a beautiful location. I had the lobster ravioli, and it turned out to be the best pasta I've ever had! I can't recommend this place highly enough.
Our first time there today and we are so glad we went. Delicious clam chowder, coconut shrimp and smash burger. Everything on the menu looked wonderful and we will be back to try them all. Very efficient staff and super friendly, too. Nice decor and beautiful water views. We went for lunch and look forward to returning for dinner someday soon. Try the lemonade with strawberries, watermelon and basil, too. So good!

Delicious food, scenic location and great wait staff! And also great TVs at the bar—best on all of Cape Ann!
I visited Rockport specifically for this restaurant and have to say this is probably one of the worst dining experiences in MA I have had so far. Everything we ordered was either too salty, or not fresh. The clam chowder had good texture but way too salty. The lobster was incredibly briny. I have been to quite a few restaurants from Legal Seafood all the way to the Michelin stars. Their lobsters didn't taste like that. The truffle fries - looked like they have been deep fried in for ages - dripping oil with only crispy shell left and no substance. The worst of all, the mussels were just plain stinky. I barely ate a couple and called it a day.I would give 2 stars if the service was acceptable. It was not. Our server seemed distracted and we typically had to wait for ~15 minutes to get on hold of her. We wanted the tools to open the lobster, she was basically like go figure yourself. We tried to open it like a barbarian and eventually fought through it, she came back with some tools but it was just too late. We wanted to bring the mussels to her attention but lucky us, she was nowhere to be seen. Even the final checkout took her a solid 10 minutes. Oh my god, a meal that lasted like a full-sized French cuisine but no comparison.Also I noticed a pattern that when people voiced their dissatisfaction, the owner typically had a reply with tons of questions and a passive-aggressive attitude. I get that. It hurts to hear that people don't like the food, or the service, or both. It hits hard. It gets personal (you, the owner). But we need to be honest here. It was not an acceptable experience and future customers should be aware of it. I rarely leave such a lengthy, or even a bad review here, but this time, I should. Please focus on food quality control, and staff training, your restaurant will stand the test of time.

BIG NO to their seafood! I liked the atmosphere of the place and it has a great ocean view. The price was okay too. We came for their seafood but I didn’t enjoy the seafood at all. The mussels tasted STALE and were evenSMELLY. We barely ate any of them and left them on the table. The fries were way OVERCOOKED and seemed to be from last day’s leftover. The lobster was very DIFFICULT to open, because the chef didn’t cut the lobster shell at all and we made a huge mess trying to open and eat the lobster. The server was not attentive and seemed to be in a rush taking care of half room of the customers on the weekend and we had to wait for the server to help clean up the mess before continuing to eat. Overall it was not a great experience and I would not recommend this restaurant.To reply to the owner:Thanks for your reply! But overall still a disappointing experience:1. It was very hard to get hold of the server so we just left the stale mussels uneaten and paid the bill without complaining about it at the restaurant. Maybe check who the server was on December 16 during lunch time and add more staff during busy hour.2. We did ask the server for tools to cut open the lobster and waited for more than 15 mins until she said she forgot about our request due to busy hour and said the kitchen was not able to cut this for us either. She could've asked how we would like the lobster to be cut when she took our order but she seemed to be in a rush and didn't give us enough attention. I believe we left less tips because of it, even though we rarely do.
You get a beautiful view of Rockport if you sit outside in the summer! The food was delicious and everyone was very kind.
