“ Ocean front seafood restaurant with big portions! We loved the chic aesthetics and upscale yet laidback vibes of this place. The interior is spacious and perfect for large groups or celebratory occasions. The food was great and the waiter was knowledgeable about the long list of wines they offer. We will definitely be back in the summer when it's warm enough to sit outside. ”

“ Start with a 45 minute drive to get here. Once here you're greeted by valet parking - a plus. Then whisked into the fresh welcoming Beauport lobby where one can have drinks and apps in front of the fire looking out over Gloucester Harbor and Massachusetts Bay. Steps away the comfortable dining room with its spectacular views offers 'over the top' fare as delicious as the setting. Whether breakfast - really, they serve breakfast until 10:45 - a buffet at $18.00! Then extensive wine, lunch and dinner selections including curried mussels, calamari, lobster rolls(HUGE), fusion escargot, marinated beet and citrus salad, poached pear and french onion soup. Making 1606 - a perfect addition to the drinking town with a fishing problem! ”

“ Beautiful views, friendly service, great drinks, wide menu selection, and delicious food! We especially loved the funghi pizza and the fried calamari. The tuna nicoise salad special was tasty but the color of the tuna was a little off-putting. Overall we had a great experience and cant wait to come back! ”

“ 1606 was unbelievable. From the service to the food to the view, everything was fantastic! The homemade crab cake was the best I have ever had - the bean and corn salad and avocado was a lovely touch. We also had the lobster bisque, clam chowder, scallops, Bianco pizza, and caprese and Caesar salads. Every single item was to die for. And the drinks were lovely, and the service by Livvy was phenomenal!!! 12/10 experience, and will be returning! ”

“ Made a reservation for 8 in advance a week prior for my cousin's night before the wedding celebratory dinner and overall it was a wonderful time! The oysters were delicious, the lobster roll was a bit pricey BUT coming with a great serving of side salad was perfect. The pasta options my friends ordered were plentiful as well. Our server was wonderful and very attentive to our large party. ”

“ We have been dining here since the hotel has opened. We have experienced the cooking of multiple chefs.. But the food was great last night! The bread is healthy and extra tasty with the chipotle honey butter. The crab cake and octopus were delicious. The Allen's Brothers' New York strips were delicious and tastier than a nearby favorite steakhouse. We supplemented with the New England fries which are delicious and not greasy. The cocktails are great as is the service from Adam and Venessa. The place has found its groove! ”

“ Great food, even better views! Service is good too, we went for brunch on a Tuesday morning. The menu is varied and comprehensive for a hotel breakfast, there was also a buffet available. I picked a croissant sandwich with bacon on thee side and avocado added, we also got an everything bagel with lox added. They forgot to put the bacon on the side for mine, noticed it before I said anything when the food was brought to the table, and redid the egg for me which was very nice. The croissant sandwich and the side potatoes (seasoned to perfection) were each very good, they happened to have excellent croissants which is a rarity on the north shore. Parking was also very easy, they have their own lot and there's another public lot down the street. The ambience is spectacular. The view is amazing and there's ample outdoor seating. ”

“ My fiancé brought me to this hotel for our anniversary and 1606 (the hotel restaurant) was strongly recommended to us by friends. Make sure to call ahead to make reservations if you're heading there for dinner especially on a weekend! Okay so...where to begin. Everything was so good we came back twice already and I'll bring every Boston visitor I have here!! We ordered the crab cake which was large and had a hearty amount of crab meat. Between the two of us the crab cake and delicious clam chowder (large size) were sufficient for dinner and we ended up having to take our entree to go we were so full! The house tartar sauce was perfection. We loved the half bottle of wine option and views were amazing despite a bit of a stormy weekend. Complimentary bread was delish and served with a house made fig tarragon butter. Can't wait to come back. ;tldr order the crab cake and the clam chow you won't be disappointed. ”

“ We ventured up to Gloucester on Sunday to enjoy the slightly cooler weather. It was mid-70s and perfect to sit outside overlooking the water and have a delish breakfast! We were too early for "brunch," but their breakfast options were very satisfying; we actually ordered too much, *gasp*! We started with juice and water, then ordered the fisherman's omelet, which had tri-colored perfectly sauteed bell peppers, onions, lots of cheese, and spicy linguica! Along with that, we had to try the lobster benedict, which was a lobster cake, perfectly poached egg, more lobster meat, and a Newburg sauce. The "home" fries looked like homemade potato chips at first glance, but they had a neat "puffiness" while still being crispy; what the what?!?! And the seasoning was just right; we didn't need to dip them in anything, but we found out they are super yummy in the Newburg sauce! The yogurt parfait is quite large! Lots of seeds, granola, nuts on top of mixed fruit, and vanilla yogurt with honey! We def could not finish everything and probably could have done with one entre and the yogurt, lol. Sitting out on the deck was the perfect way to start this lovely Sunday. The service was impeccable, and def somewhere I would take friends and family! ”
