About
Signal is a coastal Maine grill with influence from across the seas.
Inspired by the relentless spirit of the historic three-masted schooner Signal that once called Kennebunk home.
In the mid-to-late 1800s, Signal built its reputation as one of the most formidable fishing vessels on the coast - venturing farther, staying out longer, and returning with unmatched hauls. That same pursuit of excellence defines our restaurant.
Our menu is anchored in responsibly sourced local seafood and premium cuts of steak - prepared with a balance of simplicity and refinement. Bright coastal flavors paired with our extensive beer, wine, and cocktail menu shape the experience to feel both grounded and transportive.
