We have been eating at this establishment since the '80's. That was when we were lucky enough to enjoy a fishing trip with the husband (now ex) of the owner. He prepared our grouper that we caught with him three diffent ways; delicous! We've dined there at least one night for each of our visits to Marco (annually). Recently, we... more

We just returned from Marco Island and I am glad to say that we had our final nights dinner at Cafe de Marco. After a small mix up with the cab service at the hotel we were off to the Cafe for dinner. From the minute we arrived the owner made us feel right at home. We started with the... more

Many of the restaurants on Marco Island are currently offering special discounts to drum up some business in the slow season. My wife and I dined at Cafe de Marco tonight and took advantage of their "26th Anniversary Special." This fixed price special (which only runs through the end of May) included a glass of wine, salad, entree (from a... more

We dined at Cafe de Marco on April 2, 2009 and we had an excellent experience! The house salad dressing (a strawberry vinagrette) was perfect, not too sweet, not too salty. I had the Grouper Nantucket and my husband had the blackened Grouper. Both were great choices. Furthermore, our server made an excellent wine recommendation. Our server was incredibly friendly.... more

Would I go back? Yes, without a doubt. We actually went two nights in a row because we didn't want our last dinner to be bad or sub par. We were a group of 4 for both nights and the first night was for New Years Eve. All of the food was great. No complaints what so ever. The second... more

Once again, we were on our seasonal trip to Marco Island. Needless to say, we visited our favorite restaurant. Again as usual, our dinning experience was not to be matched. We asked for our special friend, Johnny, and again he treated us with all the professional and comfortable, service, as he did last year. This time we tried his suggestions... more

Very disappointed when ordering the signature appetizer Shrimp Lenny. The shrimp was very over cooked and cook (can't call him/her a chef) used fake crab. This restaurant is marketed as an upscale seafood restaurant. Florida is a seafood mecca. Fake crab should be banned in restaurants. The service was OK. There were only 2 other occupied tables and we had... more

We made reservations at Cafe de Marco to celebrate our anniversary last month. We had dined there before and had a wonderful experience. This time was different. My water glass was dirty and we found some of the silverware to be dirty also. The waiter with the accent seemed bored, made us feel rushed. The wait staff serving other tables... more

We had a great dinner with fantastic service! Our meal took a little while to get to our table so our server brought us complimentary glasses of wine. Our appy was soo good...shrimp stuffed with crab and wrapped in bacon. Dessert was great! Peanut butter pie...enormous portion! The only problem...There was a special that our server explained to us...basically the... more
