Mile Marker One waterfront restaurant offers four season indoor dining and igloo dining on the marina with stunning views of fishing boats, some you'll recognize from television. We offer the freshest seafood, locally sourced direct from fishermen. The grass fed beef is amazing and you're never going to leave our restaurant hungry. We have fresh local clams, fresh local lobster, hake, halibut, and a stunning lobster grilled cheese sandwich with sage butter. We're about friends, family, fun and we even have music some Wednesdays. Local bartenders are always coming up with new drinks like our signature "Purple Rain." We host the Blue Fin Blowout each year in July.

    Great experience to be in an igloo with a beautiful view. The food was good and reasonably priced. The service was good to start, but then we were left alone for a long time. The server forgot to bring my husband’s second glass of wine for an extended period. When the server finally returned we got rushed out and nothing was done to celebrate my husband’s 67th birthday despite that I included this information on the reservation. Disappointed that we left with the false implication that we overstayed when any delay was the service, not us. Not a great ending to an otherwise generally good experience.

    We can't recommend Mile Marker One enough! It's always been a summer favorite of ours, but we just ate lunch in one of their very cool igloos on the water, and it was fantastic. Along with a table for 4, there was a cozy sitting area for 2 people provided. The service and food was the usual excellent, and the view! Their was even music tapped in. We didn't want to leave. Thank you for putting these igloos on the deck so we could experience everything we love about Mile Marker in the winter too! A+

    MM1 is one of our favorite restaurants, mostly in the summer going by boat. Last night we drove and had an EXCELLENT dinner. Grilled swordfish with lobster risotto and the beef tenderloin with mashed/smashed twice baked potato were both amazing! Great food, great service as always.

    The new transparent igloo domes are amazing! Eating under the full moon, watching the boats on the water, all while it’s freezing cold outside, but cozy in the igloo—what an experience ! The wait staff manages to bring the food while braving the cold. Too bad they charge an extra fee for the igloos, but I understand why!

    We had dinner in one of the large igloos which was so cool & just de the scene perfectly for a nice winter’s night cozy romantic dinner. We started off work a cocktail each , them on to 1/2 dz of amazing oysters, followed by the “ star of the show” the excellent clam chowder! We both requested it be served piping hot & it arrived exactly that way! It was so good, my girl thought it was the “ best chowder “ she has ever had!! Our entrees were shrimp & lobster scampi & seafood risotto, both were excellent! Our server Mariah was also super friendly & attentive ! Mike Marker hit it out of the park!

    Dining outside in one of the igloos was perfect for our family which included a 3 and 5 year old! The privacy and warmth they provide is amazing. The food was delicious.
