Always a great experience at Chez Rosa. Bobby was great to us. Oysters were wonderful. Scallops and Beef Bourguignon were delicious. Top it off with an amazing Crème Brûlée. Can’t wait until next time.

We have now eaten at Rosella twice. Both times, it was fabulous. The service was good the first time, but our service this time with Chris was outstanding. The service from the whole restaurant was outstanding. My wife has a shellfish allergy, and everyone was on top of it. The chef saw that we were ordering something with shellfish and made sure this wasn't an error ( It was just for me, no allergies). We absolutely recommend this place.

My sisters and I recently enjoyed lunch in one of the Boathouse's little outdoor lighthouse shacks. From our warm cider cocktails (which were not on the menu, but made to order at the request of our server) to our delicious entrees and the quaint atmosphere of the private wooden shack, everything was top-notch! It was hard to decide what to order because the menu at the Boathouse is pretty extensive and so many items appealed to us. We started with the roasted brussels sprouts, which were some of the best we'd had anywhere. Two of us ordered the baked haddock casserole, the other a salmon entree. All served hot and full of flavor. Other menu items I've enjoyed on previous visits include the fried haddock sandwich, their burger, the poke tuna bowl and the steak and noodle salad. Fries at the Boathouse are worth ordering - I'm assuming they're handcut, not frozen, because they always taste fresh and delicious. Visiting the Boathouse's Lighthouse Village should definitely be on your agenda if you're spending some time in Kennebunkport in the winter. In addition to the cozy atmostphere, wonderful food and service, the photo opps ABOUND (especially on a bright, sunny day) and the sounds of a flock of ducks paddling by in the river may add even more Maine charm to your experience. Make sure you're dressed warmly, especially with warm footwear and a coat you may like to sit on, as the shacks are heated from above and the floor and seats can feel a bit chilly!

We really enjoyed our entrees and drinks at the Burleigh. The stuffed haddock was delicious as were the short ribs. The service was attentive and personable. The ambiance also provided for a very pleasant dining experience in a very snow-covered and cold Kennebunkport.

Food was amazing, staff was great and the ambiance was incredible. Anne was such a great server!
