    We had a good time here! Everything was decorated for Christmas - even the ceiling. I got a butternut squash soup, my mom got a prosciutto flatbread, my fiancé got a roasted chicken, and my dad got the American Smash Burger. Everything was delicious.

    This restaurant / bar was very festive for the Christmas prelude, glad we had dinner here for the ambiance. Overall food and drinks were good, wished it was a little better but was an overall good experience. The service / staff very friendly as well.

    One of the two bao. At $15 it's the best bargain in town. Crispiest chicken ever.

    On an August Sunday night when most other restaurants had hour-long waits we were delighted to walk into a mostly-empty Burleigh. As much as we locals appreciate an empty restaurant the Burleigh deserves more business. Fabulous bartender Stacy, excellent fried chicken bao and fish and chips. Only the Caesar salad was meh.

    Went here for an early dinner with my parents, we were quickly seated out on the patio and our orders were taken promptly. We got the charcuterie board to start which was delicious, and our main dishes were also delicious! (Caesar salad with steak, smash burger and fish and chips- all amazing) the patio was so cute and with the shade of the umbrellas it was the perfect spot! So glad we made the choice to pop in, will definitely be come back!

    Stayed at the Kennebunkport inn , made reservations for dinner in the Ski Gondola. ( the bureigh ) staff is very friendly! Gondolas are adorable and comfy & heated! Ordered drinks and app, had crab and cheese dip with chips! I did mot care for this dip. Made our dinner selections of Pork Tenderloin and baked stuffed haddock. My tenderloin was good and filling, husbands Haddock was also good, then had creme brûlée to end our night... our waitress was friendly and nice and on-top of refills and making sure we had all we needed.

    This restaurant is in the bottom of a cute Inn. I have never been there in the summer so I can't comment but this review is for the pop up bar, The Tinsel bar. The decorations are amazing and the bar/ restaurant is so cute. The service was fantastic and the food was amazing. I got the pork loin and it was very tender and juicy. My friend got the butternut squash soup and she said it was fantastic. I would come here just to get a drink and see the decorations!

    There are so many cute restaurants in Kennebunkport but we chose this one based on reviews and their menu. Any place with a kids menu is a plus. This restaurant is located in the Kennebunkport Inn and you can't park in the hotel parking spots as that's reserved for guests staying at the hotel only. It's a small restaurant and we sat in the area by the bar. The seats were comfortable. Bread and truffle butter - omg. You had me at butter and truffle. It was truly delicious. Kids hot dog - it came out burnt which was a bummer and we told the waitress if we can get another one bc my son will not eat a burnt hotdog, who would? The fries were delicious with the perfect amount of salt. Kids cheeseburger - ok. My daughter didn't finish it and I thought it was because of the sesame bun but it wasn't. She's just really picky with burgers. Clam chowder - good. Bacon, potatoes, celery and clams of course. I'm not a clam person but it was good. Lobster melt - sooo good. Highly recommend it. I love arugula and cheese and lobster on buttered bread! It was all gone. Catch of the day - tuna - a little too fishy :( presentation looked good. Overall the service was spot on - Tabitha was amazing, friendly and just so delightful! I hope you enjoy your stay. The gentlemen was very nice as well! Thanks!

    Delicious Mussels !

    Another great visit! I went right before closing (my fault for not looking at the hours) and despite my late arrival they were so friendly and welcoming! I had another delicious meal and cocktail, this time the scallops and a delicious salad. Everything perfect and the staff friendly and amazingly helpful.

    Great service, we were the only one that night. Good food and looks very upscale. However nothing too special or memorable. Good for sit down, fine-ish dining with company.

    Fire delight!

    Great drinks and cool ambience. Ordered the scallop app - legitimately came out with 3 dime sized scallops and it was something like $18.

    The Rococo Dessert Bar is such a unique and fresh idea located in Kennebunkport! For a night cap,…read moremy friend and I visited to try their espresso martinis. The dessert bar is beautifully decorated with touches of peacocks and pink. Aside from espresso martinis, the menu is extensive with different types of cocktails and desserts. Our waitress was friendly and provided us with great recommendations. Next to the dessert bar is Rococo ice cream. It's a sweet lover's dream!

    This new dessert bar is SUCH a cute spot in Kennebunkport! Perfect if you're done with dinner but…read moredon't want the night to end yet. The menu is a great mix of drinks, desserts, and dessert-drink combos. A group of 5 of us arrived and waited about 10 minutes for spots at the bar. The inside is pretty small but optimized with both bar and booth seating. The decor is so cute and whimsical. I loved all of the details! The desserts are pricey (most are around $15-20), but the portions are big enough to share with at least 1 other person. I got the Chocolate Chip Cookie Royale, which really hit the sweet-salty spot with a warm choc chip cookie, salty sweet cream ice cream, salted caramel, sesame brittle, and tahini whipped cream. The savorier elements allowed me to keep eating and not get overwhelmed by sweetness. My friends got the vegan peach crumble and chocolate cake and enjoyed theirs as well. Come with your sweet tooth, and leave happy and satisfied!

    Have been wanting to return here quite some time my husband was able to get us a last-minute…read morereservation so we snagged it. The restaurant is cozy and beautiful at the same time. It feels like Maine with the wood logs as the decor and trees. We sat in the back room which almost gives a Maine camp porch vibe. There are two different Prix fix a three and a four. My husband got the three but I went with the four because I had heard some great things with the glazed carrots, I thought we could share them. Everything was wonderful but just too much food for me. I started with the tuna sashimi which was superb and my husband had the pork belly. I had the glazed carrots and they brought my husband glazed cauliflower on the house, loved both. My husband had the steak and I had the halibut and they both were delicious. My fish came with baby potatoes, I'm not a fan of those. Finally my husband had their famous glazed donuts, the plate was licked clean and I had the chocolate cake. I am gf so I could not partake in some of his items but he said they were delicious and Earth did a fantastic job ensuring my allergy safety. Can't wait to return.

    Food started strong then progressively went downhill. Service also started strong with the host,…read morebut once the server came over it became weak and continued to decline throughout the evening. He completely disregarded the other guest and only focused on my drink order, which felt disrespectful. After taking my order and walking awaynot once but twice, when he returned I had to ask, "Are you not going to take her drink order?" The tuna sashimi was great and the carrots were good as well. However, something about the halibut tasted off. I work with fish daily, and this personally was not it. I had one bite and could not continue eating it. The server boxed up the halibut for me, but then tossed a to-go container onto the table for us to box our own dessert, which felt inconsistent with the level of service. The bartender was wearing an H&H raincoat and appeared to be drinking on the job, while other female staff members were scrolling on their phones. Overall, not a great first impression. The ambiance itself was nice, but when you make an 8:30 PM reservation and receive a text at 7:30 PM saying your table is ready, it feels a bit off-putting. I had asked beforehand if anything earlier was available and was told no, so I intentionally booked later for an evening experience. Then upon arrival, the restaurant was fairly empty. Within the first few minutes of us being there, the kitchen doors were closed and cleaning was happening all around us. It created an unpleasant atmosphere for what was supposed to be a social evening out and a little hoorah celebration, and nothing was acknowledged by staff. It was clear that reservation notes or comments in chat of reservation were not reviewed. Overall, not thrilled with the experience. Been there, done that -- one visit was enough for me/us unless that 49-year-old male server Charlie learns how to properly serve guests and the kitchen team start to season the food a bit better. Would have been nice if Charlie checked in with us more like he did the other tables hence the eaves dropping to know more about him and the place. 4/10 experience, will not be back which is a bummer.
