Perfect! Decor is on point, fresh New England Maine oven side. Not overly elegant but classy and clean lines. Service relaxed and friendly. Server was Olivia who was always smiling delivered great suggestions and was superb overall. Food WOW! Scallops are the best but the (my name) goat cheese bomb on the green salad is not t be missed. Prix fix menu but many options. All looked great. Had halibut and cod both interesting and good. Wonderful evening. Highly recommend
Service is way too slow. 20 or more minutes between tiny meal servings Portions tiny. Food is mixed. Some good some awful. Weird flavors put together. Lobster rubbery and overcooked. Hard to cut. And tasted bad with a weird green sauce. Husband liked his food better Totally not worth the money. The house setting on the ocean is beautiful
Should disclose that it is only a price fix menu! Food was not great. Very salty halibut entree, oysters had strange flavored different toppings, scallops served on what seemed to be frozen or canned corn and service was a bit slow. Menu items could use improvement. Waitstaff were very polite and friendly. Manager was very apologetic about our meal and took 30% off. For $105 per person for 3 courses, food expectation should be high and it fell short. View from dining room was spectacular.
We went for our anniversary with another couple and all had the four course serving with wine pairing. Each course was exceptional and the wine pairings were good with a generous pour. Would highly recommend.
Food was excellent. We didnt get table we were expecting near window. I had requested one but knew it wasnt guaranteed also. Ambiance was nice but we miss piano music every time we come to Ocean. We are local so come often during off season too.
All food items were excellent. Service was 1st class and well orchestrated with each course served appropriately time-wise. Outstanding view of ocean! Best restaurant we've been to by a country mile!
This is a set menu! This is not clear from OpenTable or the reviews/description/menu. This is not family friendly so don’t bring your kiddos. My expensive steak was cold :( and the pork belly was not great as well. The whole dining experience took 3 hours so plan accordingly.
This was our second , and much anticipated, visit. The food was exceptional as before, however, it took over an hour to receive our second course and another 30 plus minutes for our 3rd course. While waiting we watched numerous table get seated after us and finish their meal before us. No one ever apologized for the delay. I would expect more from a restaurant that is focused on providing a top experience overall.
Outstanding location overlooking the ocean with a warm ambiance. Our server , Nick was terrific. Good food and wine.
Somewhat expensive but great food and fabulous location in kennebunkport with very good staff.

It was our anniversary dinner, and, long story short, our first reservation we had made for dinner didn't work out (rhymes with kite farm bin)...
We called This amazing place, we're immediately met with a very friendly voice over the phone, who made it a point to accommodate us.... Not just accommodate us, but make our night extra extra special. With a window table, some of the most friendly service we've ever had,
..... And a four-course meal to die for.
No pompous rigamarole, or ego-filled loud tables...
Just incredible, amazing chef-inspired dishes, some of the best cocktails we've ever had, along with the wine pairing menu That made things extra special,
Coupled with a view of the ocean, And while the place did get a little busy, we felt like we were the most important people there, which I know is a skill in itself.
Highly recommend this place, for a special celebration, or just for a special night out.
Pictures of the dishes to follow! The fact that we did not have to make reservations more than a month out, I think this place is a special gem to be celebrated, and I can't encourage enough people to come and experience what we experienced.
Thank you especially to Amanda our server, and the lovely French hostess who answered our call and took care of us so well!
It does take a long time
One fabulous dining experience from start to finish. Excellent food and presentation, perfect service. Not rushed. Beautiful view. The chef is a master.
Wonderful experience at Ocean. The food was impeccably prepared and very tasty. The presentation was beautiful. Service was very prompt and friendly. Highly recommended.
Wonderful upper class dining experience. Expect to spend $200 per person.. Totally worth it if you enjoy this level of dining.
