The menu isn’t large but there are plenty of options (if you like seafood) and we tried a few different things including the scallop ceviche, miso soup, rainbow trout sashimi, two rolls and dessert. Everything was fantastic with very inventive flavor combinations and interesting local options. We will definitely be back when visiting this part of Maine.

My kids and I love Kennebunkport, but last night was our first visit to Rosella, and it did not disappoint. The kids love toro, and their quality was top-notch. Order it sashimi-style and you get four cuts, score! We also tried a few signature rolls, including the Lobster California roll, which was stacked with lobster. The sushi chef did not hold back! The ambiance was perfect for the three of us, and it would also make a great date-night spot, especially at the sushi bar. Andrew took amazing care of us and made the evening even better. We had such a great time and can’t wait to go back!

People nice. we are just 0-3 attempts and always feels like we are in the only spot in the restaurant where we can’t get the normal attention of a waiter or chef. We watch everyone around us get attended to as we seem to be invisible. I do think the team favors repeat customers. etc but we’ve tried 3x. The food is that good which is why we keep trying

                                                                            Yes, Rosella complements its menu with regional wines and a variety of drinks, and guests also mention enjoying sake and chilled wines during their meals.
