Ocean Restaurant exceeded every expectation! Their prix fixe menu options were absolutely amazing — each course was thoughtfully curated and beautifully prepared. It made the entire dining experience feel special and elevated from start to finish. We visited for Valentine’s Day, and it was the perfect choice for such a meaningful occasion. This is truly an ideal spot for date night or any special holiday celebration. The wine pairings offered with dinner took everything to the next level. Each selection complemented the courses perfectly and enhanced the overall experience in a way that made the evening feel indulgent and memorable. The wait staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming, adding to the warm and refined atmosphere. Considering the prime location and the outstand

We didn’t know what to expect but had heard that the food at Ocean was well worth the price of admission. We found that to be true and more. Setting was quintessential Maine. The dining room was intimate, comfortable and inviting. The service was excellent and the food the very best we’ve had in a long time. The prix fixe menu included a wide range of options from tuna tartare to scallops and corn purée to lamb shank to duck to toasted halibut—every morsel was absolutely delicious. We sat at a table overlooking the ocean and couldn’t be more pleased with the overall experience.

Just went for cocktails and bites from the Veranda menu. It was pretty windy outside, so they let us sit in the living room. But we still had an incredible view of the ocean at sunset! The drinks and food were amazing. I loved the Thyme 75 and the deviled eggs (perfect smokey paprika and crispy shallots). It was quiet and not crowded during the off-season. The service was perfect. Attentive and kind, but let us enjoy our quiet time with the waves. We will definitely be back!

What a beautiful experience we had dining at Ocean. Our server, Charlotte was 5 star all the way. The food was delicious and presentation on par with the fine dining I've experienced at restaurants such as Per Se, Le Bernadin and Daniel in NYC. This restaurant only offers pre-fixe menus 4 courses $125pp but the selections are nicely varied to accommodate different palates. My family of 4 dined here and everyone left with full bellies and happy smiles. The bar tender made delicious cocktails! (Wild Blossoms) If you're looking for a restaurant that has stunning views, great service, and not your typical local fried seafood fair, come here and celebrate this culinary thrill I found in Kennebunkport ❤️😊✌️

We stayed at the Cape Arundel Inn for our honeymoon. We splurged for the 4 course, prix fixe menu with wine pairings. The amuse bouche croquet was a great little starter. We had oysters, and watermelon feta salad followed by scallops and crab with avocado. The main course was halibut and swordfish, with a peach panna cotta and cheesecake for dessert. An amazing ocean view, go before sunset. The dining area overlooks the rocky Maine coastline, complete with a view of the Bush compound.
