“If you haven’t been to this restaurant you need to go. I would describe this restaurant as an eclectic and industrial vibe with great ambiance. Our server Sam was phenomenal! He was very attentive, professional, respectful and charming. We went there on July 13th 2024. Our table had the burrata appetizer and the shrimp cocktail. They were plated beautifully and very delicious. I had the special of the day which was cobia over a bed of Parmesan risotto with a lemon beurre blanc sauce and Hericot Verts. I am not a fish fan but I wanted to try something different for a change and I was so happy I did. The fish had trout roe on top and it popped in your mouth and was fantastic. I finished everything on my plate. Sam sold me on it with his description and the chef provided a meal I will never forget. My dining partners had filet mignon, Lobster Madagascar and Schnitzel A’la Holstein. I tried them all and I loved each and everyone of those dishes. I wish I lived in Marco Island so I could go there often.”

“My neice bought me a gift card 3 weeks ago for Mangos because we love the restaurant, went there to use it and the waitress tells us we can't use it at this time...So you sold a gift card to someone when you can't use it...That seems illegal and very bad business”

“Excellent meal and drinks. Service was top notch too. Highly recommend!”

“Five stars—again—for Arturo's Bistro on Marco Island.

Our most recent dinner at Arturo's was our sixth visit since first discovering the restaurant in May 2025, when we celebrated our anniversary there. That first experience was exceptional, and Arturo's has continued to impress us every time we've returned.

Once again, the food and drinks were outstanding. There is a consistency here that keeps bringing us back.

A special mention to Neal at the bar, who was entertaining, engaging, and added considerably to the enjoyment of the evening. Our server, Mihaela, was attentive, efficient, and highly professional—excellent service from beginning to end.

Six visits in a little over a year says more than any single review probably can. What began with a memorable anniversary dinner has become one of our favorite Italian restaurants on Marco Island.

Outstanding food, excellent drinks, terrific people, and consistently professional service. Arturo's Bistro continues to earn our five stars. We will most certainly be back.”

“We always enjoy visiting the Sand Bar! Great staff - great drinks - great food! Have become friends with many of the regulars over the years! Cant wait to get back……👍🏻👍🏻”

“It was perfect. Our waiter Alessio was very attentive, helpful, and funny. This was a special dinner for my husband's birthday and we couldn't have asked for more. We look forward to returning when you reopen in the fall. Thank you!”

“Delicious ice cream on a hot day!!!! Thank you from MN!!”

“Fantastic food and service!!”

“we went here 4X in our 5 day trip to Marco Island and that says everything you need to know. Delaney is so sweet and the lady that works at the register is always so kind. The kids chicken tenders come in a little sand bucket! 10/10 would obviously come here again”

“I wish I took a picture of my dish. I’ve been using Mongolian beef as my judge for Chinese restaurants for decades. Easily eaten it thousands of times at hundreds of restaurants. The Mongolian Beef at KJ was in the top three I’ve ever had. That includes some very high end places in every big city. To find a gem like this in a corner on Marco Island was a wonderful discovery. I’ll be coming back every time I visit the island. The dish was spicy. I asked for as spicy as they make, nothing gets to me anymore, and this was right on the edge of the hottest food I’ve been served in any of the restaurants. The flavors were excellent and the ingredients were top notch.

We also had a few sushi rolls, all fantastic, and the krab rangoons were the best I’ve had in years. You can tell they really care, I made a mistake reading the menu and they fixed it up right away. (On that note order the big giant roll without deep fry and it’s amazing, I just don’t like hot rolls).

I think the owner was the one who took care of that for me and I meant to thank him in person and let him know how amazing that Mongolian beef was, but I didn’t get a chance. Hope you read this review! I can’t wait to be back!”

“Jackies has beenpart of our favorite take out restaurants. More NY style chinese than other places we yried in FL. Good food and value, love their vegetable soup, curry shrimp. Nevrr have Been disappointed. ❤️?”

“Delicious! The cookie dough ice cream was legit!”

“Absolutely lovely establishment, service is super quick for takeout.

They have a really cool golf memorabilia area inside the shop to look at while waiting on your order with A REAL scorecard of Dwight D. Eisenhower where they wrote in “Mr. President”! Not to mention the signed pants and real clubs from Pros like Bob Hope and Gene Sarazen.

Ryan the worker their was super friendly, I would definitely recommend this family run Micheal Bobs to anyone on or near the Island!!!

11/10 food and service”

“awesome food , awesome service ! The best pork burrito I've had in my life ! I would highly reccomend to anyone !”

“On a recent visit to Marco Island—one of many day trips to this Gulf Coast enclave—our group of close friends concluded a boating excursion with dinner at Veridi’s American Bistro. It was our first visit, and if the evening is any indication, it will not be our last. Arrival & Atmosphere Parking remains the restaurant’s most notable logistical challenge. The lot is exceedingly small, and despite holding a confirmed reservation, we were seated approximately 10–15 minutes late. Yet once inside, any initial inconvenience quickly faded. The dining room exudes warmth and intimacy: softly lit, tastefully appointed, and thoughtfully arranged. Remarkably, even at peak occupancy, the noise level remains restrained—an increasingly rare virtue and particularly welcome when dining with a larger party. Service & Beverage Program Service was attentive and gracious throughout the evening. Our servers demonstrated professionalism and warmth, though at times they were slightly difficult to understand. The wine selection proved excellent—well-curated and versatile enough to satisfy varied preferences. However, guests should note that the beverage program is limited to wine and beer; those seeking pre-dinner cocktails will need to plan accordingly. Cuisine The kitchen is where Verdi’s distinguishes itself. We began with the Wiki Wiki Shrimp and house meatballs—both exemplary. The shrimp delivered lively flavor and balance, while the meatballs offered depth and comfort without heaviness. Entrées across the table were uniformly praised, an uncommon consensus in a group setting. My selection, the duck, merits special recognition: expertly prepared and finished in a raspberry–hoisin sauce, accompanied by jasmine rice. The dish achieved a refined balance of richness, acidity, and subtle sweetness, and stands comfortably among the three finest duck preparations I have encountered. Desserts provided a fitting finale, each plate executed with the same care and precision evident throughout the meal. Verdict While minor drawbacks exist—tight parking, slight reservation delays, and the absence of spirits—the culinary execution and inviting ambiance more than compensate. Verdi’s American Bistro delivers thoughtfully prepared cuisine in an environment conducive to conversation and convivial dining. Highly recommended.”

“Everything about this place is just over the top, food, drinks and the staff. Vernell Symonette was amazing!”

“We had breakfast at Maia several times during our stay, and each time, both the food and service were great. However, what impressed us most was what happened after one of our breakfasts.

My daughter realized that she had accidentally left behind a collection of shells that were very special to her. She was absolutely heartbroken and inconsolable, so we went back to Maia hoping we might be able to find them. Unfortunately, the shells were nowhere to be found.

Later that day, the Maia staff sent a special surprise up to our room for her. They had put together some impressive shells, a gift card, a stuffed dolphin, chocolate dessert shells, and a sweet handwritten note with cute drawings of shells. It was an incredibly thoughtful gesture that turned a very upsetting moment for our daughter into a wonderful memory.

This is exactly what exceptional customer service and hospitality should look like. The staff went far beyond what anyone would expect, and their kindness and thoughtfulness meant so much to our family. We were incredibly impressed with Maia and its wonderful staff and would absolutely recommend them.”

“Excellent dining experience at Marco Prime. Perfect portions, prepared to order with a variety of sides. Service was well timed w courteous wait staff. Put this place on your list.”

“Great experience! We went for wing night and they were really good. Service was nice. Only suggestion would be to put a changing table in the super nice bathroom!”

“Came here with my wife every night of our honeymoon.
PHENOMENAL staff and service! That is what you can expect when you come to 10k Alley at the JW Marriott in Marco island. Kai is a great manager who leads an exceptional and friendly team. Whether you’re enjoying a drink at their oval bar that’s surrounded with TV’s or bowling at their simple, yet epic bowling alley, or playing mini golf or any of their awesome games, you will be treated with welcoming and friendly hospitality. You’ll feel wanted.

Janae (janaiyah) who often runs the arcade is fantastic and SO helpful. She even cheered us on with our arcade game after helping us with our minor misunderstanding.

Jane and Ryheem were AWESOME bartenders. They run the place with extreme care and accommodate to the best of their abilities.
Alex knew us by name after just meeting briefly one time. She felt like the fun aunt serving you up the best drinks.
Ryheem was an absolute bro. Had lots of great chats with him and he’s a wizard at his craft.

The staff helped make this hotel and this memory of our honeymoon, VERY memorable.

We will be back soon and often. 6 stars, 11/10.

~Mr. And Mrs. Loudon”

“Friendly atmosphere and great food”

“My husband loves ice-cream cake. So for his 50th, celebrated in Marco Island I was in need to find a place that made them. I was over-the-top excited when I found this Cold Stone so close to where we were staying. In advanced, I ordered two cakes as I had this idea to create a two tier cake. Maria was so helpful. She listened to my idea and knew exactly what to do. The cakes were freshly made and were ready at pickup.”

“After a day of fishing, we visited the Marco Island Brewery. The brewery/restaurant features a spacious sports bar atmosphere. They have both indoor and outdoor dining options. The bar is a great size for enjoying drinks and cocktails. We brought our own Sheepshead Fish, and the chef cooked it for us. It was absolutely delicious. We ordered the chicken sandwich, potato tots, bruschetta, mozzarella sticks, and fish tacos. We had a fantastic experience and will definitely return.”
