I had the pasta with lobster and it was delicious. My husband had “the special” which was shepherd pie (although made with hamburger) and he said it was also delicious. The drinks were also good. We shared a blueberry pie and yummy it was so good. It was off season we had a open table reservation but didn’t really need it.

Overall, our experience at Mile Marker was outstanding. Our server, Riley, was excellent and answered all of the menu and wine questions our group of four had. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel very welcome throughout the evening. The food was very good, and everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed their meal. We also appreciated the low noise level inside the restaurant, which made conversation easy and enjoyable. Mile Marker offers a great combination of attentive service, delicious food, and a comfortable atmosphere. We look forward to returning.

    The food was amazing (and it is consistently). The service was fantastic, including the hostess. And the vibe was good (not loud or noisy, music was good, not too snooty). Definitely a favorite of ours. I recommend the filet and the brussels.

    Absolutely the best baked haddock with mashed potatoes and pea pods. Love mashed potatoes with skin on. Poundkiller was amazing . The taco salad was great too. A bit noisy but added to the fun. Wonderful visit!!
