    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.

    Beauport is the perfect place for a holiday celebration! It’s so beautifully decorated and festive, there is such a positive vibe and everyone is in such a happy mood! Jingle Bar was in full motion, love the relocation to the back of the lobby, so intimate and magical! We had dinner in 1606, needed a little more quiet time together and it was perfect! Our server was excellent, dinners were delicious (hard to choose next up with the new menu, cocktails, and food - so many great options! We all agree that a part of lobster bisque is the best around, including Boston! The burgers and pizzas are always a great choice, and scallops were delicious too! The restaurant, bar, lobby, and Jingle Bar wereall crowded, it was wonderful to see so many people out celebrating the holidays! The staffing was proportionate, never oh wait and the visibility of management ensuring everyone was being taken care of and enjoying themselves and the food or something. You don’t see everywhere! Also, it was nice to receive a personal check in from Chef Jon, wanting to be sure everything was as we liked it…and we loved everything! Looking forward to our friend event on Friday night, 14 of us will celebrate and enjoy a delicious and special meal together in the private dining room!
