- LLacieChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoEvery dish was amazing! Justin is an extremely talented chef and we can’t wait to go back. Even something like potato leek soup, which I almost didn’t select because it seemed too ordinary and there were so many other great options in the first course, ended up being the best soup I have ever had. Cocktails were creative and fantastic as well. Really nice ambience with the rustic but elegant decor.More infoEarth at Hidden PondPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Kennebunkport•4.8

I had the squash ravioli to start then the halibut in the the richest/ lightest/ most heavenly artichoke lemony caper broth… i will Not forget this dinner or the adorable ambiance downstairs.
