On the Marsh Bistro

Fabulous restaurant. Nicely decorated and comfortable seating arrangement. The food was fantastic! Seafood Marseilles was unbelievable. Lobster, Scallops and Shrimp with pasta in a tasty sauce. Creme brulee and cappuccinos were an excellent end to a wonderful dinner. Our waitress Colby was awesome! Very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend going there!!!!!

On our first visit to Kennebunkport, our inn keeper suggested we try On The Marsh. Unfortunately, we never made it. Fast forward 4 years to 2020, and as permanent residents of the area, we finally made it on a recent, Friday night. Here’s what we found: a very comfortable and friendly atmosphere, a varied menu, a good wine list and a full bar. Our friend and now neighbor had the Oysters Rockefeller which he raved about. He didn’t say much about the haddock special That followed. I had an unremarkable Caesar and an over cooked 1/2 duck (I asked for crispy but I believe the chef mistakenly construed that to mean well done). The 3rd member in our party had a butternut squash soup which was apparently very good and a pork roast which was also good but not great. The oysters were the only stand out. Bottom line, the fare is pricey so our expectations were high. I’m not sure the execution of the dishes served warranted the prices charged. That said, I’d absolutely give it another try.

The environment was excellent, the food exceptional however the evening was hampered with our exit when the server felt it necessary to walk by our table verbally denouncing their acceptance of our AMEX card. Apparently he felt it necessary to let the surrounding guests know that we failed to present the appropriate card. Obviously he was unhappy that I placed my hand on the bill advising him I had not yet reviewed the guest check for payment which must of embarrased him. In the end the venue was A+, the server, needs coaching. Highly recommend........
