It was our first time to Kretch's and the server was pleasant and smiled as she guided us thru the menu . She even suggested an appetizer portion of an entree( not mentioned on the menu) when we couldn't decide between 2 entrees. I had coconut shrimp as an appetizer, and the signature Seafood strudel for the meal. It was... more

Years ago we thought Kretch's was a great find in Marco Island. We don't think that anymore. We feel the food is just average. The people working there are all old and cranky. The atmosphere is dark and gloomy. We won't eat there again. more

We have been fans of Kretch's for years but after our meal there last night we won't be returning. The appetizer took forever so they brought the salad first and the main course was ready at the same time as the appetizer so they held the main course The fish was dry and over cooked. and not very hot., The... more

Went to Kretch's based upon Trip Advisor's strong reviews. Food was fine and menu had some interesting items (hogfish and tripletail), which we tried and enjoyed. Small restaurant with limited seating, clean and well-appointed. Medium-priced. Friendly, competent wait staff. One negative - Don't sit near the door on a cold night (I put my coat back on). One curious contrast... more

Thanks for your review. I just wanted to let you know that because of your input and input from a few others, we have recently built a new wine list. Nothing too fancy, mostly stuff you can find in the grocery stores--all priced below $35/bottle. It will go into effect within a week or two. If your in the area...

Returned from Marco Island on Feb 28. Ate at Kretch's 3 times and never had a bad meal. Seafood strudel is very good, also BBQ ribs were very meaty and fall off the bone delicious. more

We just returned from a great week in Marco Island with our kids and grandkids. Our children chose Kretch's, based on guidebook recommendations, as a thank you for taking them to Florida. The salads were all iceberg lettuce, the appetizers very oily and the seafood over breaded and smothered in a cheese whiz type sauce. We felt badly because our... more

Local atmosphere with involved owners. Soup, salad & Grouper sandwich were great. Filet had a great taste, but the cut of meat was less then a filet. Meat was overcooked & tough. Shrimp Tempura would have been outstanding had it not been overly breaded. German dishes were good, but very rich. Overall, the food was average. Definatly, not #1 on... more
