- PPatriciaChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined on 14 Oct 2026There were 5 of us and everyone including the 3 year old, (who I shared the shrimp scampi with) loved the food. The shrimp scampi was the best I've ever had and I've had it a number of times all over the country. Two people shared Tapas and had the Baba Ghanoush, lamb lollipops, and Branzino . They loved it all. And one person enjoyed a chicken sandwich. Nice interior and good drinks.More infoLuna Mare Cuisine$$$$• Mediterranean• Ipswich•4.8

- JJoeGreater Boston •13 reviews5.0Dined on 9 Oct 2026Overall, 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.More infoMile Marker One Restaurant$$$$• Seafood• Gloucester•4.3
