The real good the toasted pumpkin chocolate chip muffin. Best thing we had. And the fruit cup was super fresh and great tropical variety. The ehhh- they make their own quiche but it was small and they microwave it to heat it. No crunch of the crust or anything. Makes no sense to ruin it that way!! I got a side of gravy and it was decent. Tasted homemade but not hit enough temp wise. Bf got the burger and the chips were the highlight. The hamburger was over done and little flavor. The bad- the grits watery yucky and cold. Like worse then instant made at home. Overall, place has potential they make own breads which my toast was also delish but they take shortcuts which don't make sense and bring down quality.

Staying at the JW Marriot and wanted some pizza. This restaurant had high reviews on Yelp…read more First, the pizza was delicious! Wish we ordered another one as it wasn't enough for us (4 people). As this was a take out order, there was a big issue. The app gave options to add for an order. I ordered a spaghetti marina and thought I "added" garlic and oil. But when we received the order, it was just pasta, garlic and oil. Wtf?! Why the heck would anyone order a spaghetti and only want garlic and oil? The option was NOT clear. I thought it was in ADDITION to. So for $20 I got pasta and garlic and oil. No marinara. It's NOT spaghetti! This was a take out order so the experience might not be the same if you eat at the restaurant. UPDATE: The owner, Sami, called me the next day to apologize for the mixup and offered to replacement. Within 30 min I received a still hot spaghetti the way it's supposed to be. Not only that, he added some dessert. As a business person myself, I understand mistakes happen. But when the issue is rectified, it's a testament to the values of the restaurant. The spaghetti was delicious! Not only the food is delicious, but awesome customer service. I can imagine how good the service would be if we ate at the restaurant. Highly recommend. (Went from 1-star to 5-star - the owner never asked me to change my rating)

I upgraded to sweet potato fries. They were good. The burger was great. Mom liked her poke tuna bowl. We also had the stromboli which was the least favorite. The flavor was good but loaded with more cheese than meat. It's huge! It will easily feed 3. We will be back.

Coleslaw has good flavor! We love getting their pulled pork sandwich on garlic toast! Highly recommend! Service is always very fast & friendly! The only thing I don't recommend is ordering delivery through Uber eats or those services because the order could get mixed up with the drivers other deliveries that are in Naples. One time we order through Uber Eats and it took over an hour when I could have just walked 10 minutes to get our food. I recommend calling in the order and picking it up yourself to make sure you get to enjoy the fresh food experience!

Can't leave Marco Island without a stop at Michelbob's, but this lunch visit fell short. Since this…read morelocation is strictly carryout, we ordered the 1/2 Baby Back Ribs with fries and coleslaw, along with the Pulled Pork and baked potatoes. Each meal came with garlic toast. The staff member was friendly and let us know the fryer would add a few minutes to the wait. With several customers ahead of us, the total wait was just over ten minutes. Unfortunately, the food didn't travel well. Even though we live less than five minutes away, everything was already cooling off by the time we got home. The fries didn't seem freshly fried, were barely warm, and the portion felt skimpy. The ribs and pulled pork were just okay, and the garlic toast was soft and flimsy. The one standout was the creamy coleslaw, which was genuinely good. Overall, the carryout experience was disappointing. Next time, I'd skip the Marco Island pickup and head to the Naples location instead.

Happy hour and grilled grouper? Say less…read more We spent the day exploring by pontoon and pulled up to Island Gypsy for a late lunch. The vibe was 10/10. All outdoor seating right on the water. Our waiter was great, too. He even kept an eye on the time and waited until the clock hit 3 so we could take advantage of happy hour. The onion rings were a standout. Seriously, get them. They also surprised our niece with a little birthday treat, which was such an unexpected touch. (See video.) Before we left, we wandered through the gift shop... it's actually worth the visit. Island Gypsy is 100% worth checking out, just be prepared for a wait because this place stays busy.

Nice atmosphere. Great service…read more Ice tea very good. Fish Tacos spicy but overall very underwelming in appearance and taste. Chicken sa dwich with bacon and cheese: Bacon undercooked and the 1/4 inch slice of chicken was like eatina a piece of cardboard. Fries were good and the chips with the fish tacos were great. The last thing that really irked me was the parking lot is crushed stone and maybe shells. After the young man that brought my car to me got out of it, the front mats were full of the white dust from lot. After I got home, I needed to remove both mats and wash them. Just that would keep me from returning.

The first day I took advantage of their crab legs special (Sundays and Mondays) which came with melted butter and fries and was delicious! The second time, we went for lunch again, and brought the fish we had caught on an excursion that morning (snapper, trout, whiting, I think). They can prepare it in multiple ways and we chose to do half fried and half grilled. It was delicious! Note that whenever we have visited, it has been for lunch so I can't speak to the evening atmosphere, but during the day it's very laid back, and often mostly locals. My husband declares it's the best grouper sandwich he's had, and he says that on every trip, even though we go to other restaurants.

My husband and I are full time residents of Marco Island. Since moving here almost a year ago,…read morewe've been having fun trying all of the amazing restaurants in the area. Today, we attempted to have lunch at The Speakeasy. We've heard mixed reviews from other residents. However, we like to form our own opinions so we thought we'd give it a try. What a mistake. Walking into the bar/restaurant, a handwritten sign told us to seat ourselves. So, walking towards their outside area, we were hit by a wall of cigarette smoke. No biggie. It's outdoors. Not ideal but whatever. It IS mostly a bar. So, we picked a table. On our way to sit down, a server walking past mumbled a hello and kept walking. So, we said hi and sat at a table. The server then stood several feet away and just stared at us. Literally, did not move. Not even to take care of other tables, which we noticed after a time, were just sitting there not receiving service as well. So, we waited. ...and waited. 10 minutes later, and the server never moved. Ultimately, we decided to leave. As my husband and I stood up and began walking out, the server reached behind her and grabbed two menus, watching us the entire time. She then said, "Sorry folks. Have a great day." Wow. Off season, places like this depend on locals to keep their businesses afloat. With the kind of attitude and service we received, we won't be back.
