    Amazing all around. Chicken liver pate with a homemade cranberry chutney was superb. The French onion soup had clearly been cooking for hours as the onions were almost liquified with just the right amount of sherry added. A French onion soup worth going out of your way to eat. The fondu was large and very filling on a cold night. We had the gnocchi as the entree and the earthy sauce with lots of black truffles was a great partner to the incredibly fresh tender gnocchi and delicata squash. Every dish was fantastic plus a very attentive waitstaff that seems to work great as a team. Anytime driving past Kennebunkport it will be hard to not stop for dinner.

    This little place is a real find and great addition to Kennebunkport. It’s French but bistro casual. They always have vegan options and updated classics. Drinks and wine are fun too. A real step up from some of the touristy offerings in Dock square.

    We were looking for an open reservation for dinner during Prelude and while we were not familiar with this restaurant, it was the only reservation left anywhere. Upon entering we were instantly charmed by the beauty and ambiance. Our host greeted us warmly and told us to “have fun” which instantly set an awesome intention. Our server was an absolute sweetheart who was knowledgeable, kind and accommodating. I asked her for a pasteurized cheese substitution on a dish we ordered because I am pregnant, and she was immediately responsive. The chef was so easygoing in the accommodation and didn’t seem impositioned in the slightest. We ordered an apple and walnut salad, fondue for 2 and a beautiful orzo risotto. The food was exceptional. Light, exciting and delicious. They had some non-alcoholic options for me and my wife had sparkling roses and sangria, both of which, she loved. On the way out I told the host, who actually may have been the owner, what a lovely experience we had and how being able to get a reservation was a happy accident. It turns out that the were booked months in advance and we were able to book due to a cancellation. If you have not been to this amazing spot, get there soon! Best meal all around I have had in a while.

    Superb! We had a 3 course dinner with wine pairings and a 3 course brunch and both were terrific! Hollandaise was sublime on the eggs Benedict. Quiche was excellent. Gnocchi were perfect little pillows in a lovely mushroom sauce, and the desserts were great. Wine pairings were perfect. Would go again in a heartbeat. Staff was attentive and the owners even gave us a tip on where to find an ingredient.
