    The food was a disappointment. We were excited based on reviews but the food was uneventful and bland. Unfortunately it cast a shadow on the whole evening.

    Everything was delicious. My salmon was prepared perfectly and really delicious glaze, along with rice and squash - all perfectly balanced. Best burrata I ever had! The atmosphere is really cozy and all of the staff are very friendly and attentive. We would definitely go back.

    Service was poor. Food was bland. There are many great options in Ogunquit. This isn’t one of them. It was the worst dining experience we have had in our 15 years of visiting Ogunquit.

    Disappointed, arrived about 10 minutes early to reservation, waited just a few minutes to be seated. Waited a bit for server ordered drinks which were very good. Waited finally ordered meals, my husband salad and appetizer and myself a dinner. After approximately 40 minutes asked server about meal after table next to us finally got their meals without salads, asked for bread, waited a bit more asked again and told kitchen behind, and no indication coming any time soon, decided to pay for drinks and leave, many other options to eat in ogunquit will not be returning

    This was the BEST meal we every have had in our lives!! Starting with the salad through the desert. My husband is Gluten free and they had many gluten free entries available! The service was excellent and the music was also great! Then to finish off our experience there were scrubbing salts in the restrooms room to wash your hands with, that made my hands so soft!!!!

    We went on a Sunday night in September and it was very quiet. There was only one waiter who did an admirable job. My husband and I both had the pulled pork with rice and beans which was delicious though it had large segments of fat in it. Portions were very large and we should have split it. My appetizer of Lobster and gnocchi was sublime and next time I would get that as an entree. Very enjoyable but would have been more fun if more people which in season I’m sure there was.

    We went to have dinner for 7 and went to the bar for a drink first as we were early. Bartender, Aldo, was super pleasant and room was beautiful so we decided to just stay and eat at the bar. Started with the calamari which was excellent, fresh and crunchy with a great Asian sauce and little chunks of pineapple. Delicious! Our dinners were both very tasty as well. We shared a dessert which was a triple chocolate cheesecake which was delicious and wonderfully presented/plated. Great experience as it was last time and we will definitely go back again. Thank you Aldo and The Roost for a exceptional dining experience!
