    FAMOUS FISH & CHIPS
    Mary D.

    Popular area with restaurants & shopping. Large seating areas & huge menu choices including happy hour options during the week. Server was friendly & wait time was reasonable for spring break dinner crowds. Kids eat free is an attractive option. Food was ok but not outstanding. Ordered crab & cheese dip-served with the food instead of as an appetizer which was odd. Very cheesy & colorful chips. Table tried fish & chips, grilled shrimp. Shrimp scampi pasta, burger & kids meals. Portions for kids were filling for them & burger was huge. Fish was ok-small portions & acceptable not outstanding. Acceptable place for a quick meal & lots of drink options.

    Oysters, shrimp, and wings got the hot and teriyaki wings

    You walk in and you can relax grab a drink at the bar and order some food this is what pinchers is to me when I walk in there. I go to the bar in time for happy hour order my 2 for 1 drinks and get the happy hour oysters, shrimp, and wings. Feels like paradise with this combo and the fishing theme inside to help me feel the island vibes and the look through bar to the outside seating. Jonathan is a great bartender btw always a pleasure having his serve me.

    Great lunch local resturant location. Excellent service with a traditional local seas food market vibe. Fried clams with fresh cut fries were very good

    Bucket of cocktails was so fun. We then had a bucket to get shells on the beach. Recommend this. We had oysters , shrimp and tacos. As a snack before sunset. It was a nice venue. The food had good flavor I do not recommend the up grade to black grouper. Not sure I would have noticed the difference. Was good though. Waitress was friendly and patient with us not knowing what to get. We did have the bogo beer that's a good deal. Cute location and fun times

    We stopped in at Pinchers again while visiting Marco recently. It was just Wifey and I on vacation this time and we wanted a non-fancy meal for our first night out. Our waitress was over in a flash and got our drink orders (Strawberry-Basil margarita and a Premium Margarita). The drinks were great...even a little strong. For our entrees I ordered the crab cake sandwich and Wifey had the Fried grouper sandwich. Both sandwiches were filling and really tasty. The fries were a little underdone, but still tasted good. I also ordered a cup of the corn and crab chowder and it was FANTASTIC! This place can get a little loud and it's almost always packed, but the food and service have been great. Would definitely come back.

    If you love seafood and you're in Marco Island, you absolutely should go to Pinchers!!! Everything was excellent -- the food, service, specials and live music all fantastic!! I had the Alaskan Snow Crab meal which was delicious and very filling! Crab was fresh and not overcooked! Everyone else had Grouper and all said it was fresh, flaky and perfectly seasoned. We were lucky to be seated quickly, but I highly recommend reservations. This place is super popular for good reason. Highly recommend checking this place out if you are in the area!

    There was no wait on a random Sunday and we decided to give this place a try. There was a live singer which was a fun add on. The food was excellent and tasted fresh. It took a bit of time for the food to come out but it was worth the wait. The drinks were strong and they were running a buy one get one, which is unheard of and ended up being $10 for the two. The oysters and mussels were fresh. The crab cake was alright, but the snow crab legs were delish! The food is pricier given its seafood, but I was happy with everything there!

    We really enjoyed pinchers on our recent vacation to marco island! This place is NOT FANCY, but it is a little expensive! I mean its seafood, so I don't want it to be cheap. I do think the ambiance and presentation at Snook Inn is more worth it at the same exact price point. But our seafood was honestly really really yummy and tasted fresh, we had good service, and they do have good drink specials and a nice happy hour for the peel and eat shrimp. The cold peel and eat shrimp were our favorite thing we got! The blue crab claws were also very good and we enjoyed the crab and corn chowder. We would definitely go back considering its within walking distance of the marriot vacation club, good price point for the freshness of the seafood, and club owners get 10% off!

Our usuals are the Pink Moons but we also tried some local oysters and they were delicious! I got the seared scallops with the black spaghetti and it was great. Always love their seafood! Overall I think everyone loved the food - a friend got the lamb shank and said it was amazing. The only thing that could have been improved was the surf n turf special. The steak (which I think was a strip) was reported to be lacking in flavor... Pro tip - don't skip on the free bread/cornbread and butter! It's the perfect carb start to any meal!!

Marco Prime has always been our go to Valentine's Day spot for ambiance, great service, and excellent food. This year was very different. For Valentine's, we were given a fixed menu that eliminated longtime favorites, including the 10 oz filet and their New York-style cheesecake. We settled for steak frites at $140 per person. The steaks were gristly and underwhelming, and their usually exquisite beef carpaccio looked and tasted more like a chopped salad in a retirement home. When a manager checked on us and I calmly explained our disappointment, his response was, "But sir, our beef carpaccio is Wagyu," which did nothing to address the real issue. A co owner then came by, was empathetic, and asked, "How can I make this right?" In a lighthearted way I said a slice of their award winning cheesecake would be wonderful. He promised, "I'll make that happen." We pushed aside our half eaten steaks and waited. Ten minutes later, our (excellent!) server informed us there was no cheesecake that night after all. For a bill north of $500 (which included our customary 25% tip) on a special occasion, that combination of poor food, tone deaf management, and unfulfilled promises made the evening a real disappointment. For contrast, the other Marco Walk Plaza restaurants we visited that week--Oyster Society, DaVinci's, Nacho Mama's, and The Salty Dog--were all excellent. Sadly, Marco Prime has lost our business. A celebrity cruise meal at Viking cruise prices. As a postscript, our son lives in Naples, and his dog Murphy ultimately enjoyed our leftover steak frites without complaint. Unfortunately, "Murphy loved it" is not the standard we use when deciding where to enjoy a special Valentine's dinner.

The seafood selection on the menu felt limited. I expected more variety for a coastal restaurant. Appetizers were decent but did not stand out. The salmon carpaccio looked nice and tasted as expected, but the flavor was fairly simple. The frutti de mar had good flavor and the seafood was cooked properly. The sauce worked well and did not overpower the dish. The portion was disappointing for the price. The dish cost $52 dollars and only included three scallops and three shrimp. The rest of the seafood was mostly clams and mussels. I substituted angel hair instead of linguine which helped keep the dish lighter. The chicken Madeira looked great but the flavor was mild. With a stronger sauce or seasoning it could easily be an excellent dish. The kids meals were a win. The chicken tenders and pasta kept them happy and the portions were solid. Overall experience was good mainly because of the service and presentation. Some dishes need stronger flavor and the seafood portions could match the price better. Still a pleasant dinner spot on Marco Island.

The restaurant has inside and outside seating. We sat outside because the weather was nice. Service was friendly and efficient. The reason for 3 stars is the food, which in my opinion was at best mediocre. The kid had pasta and red sauce, which at $12 was overpriced. The pasta was overcooked and the marinara lacked flavor. It came with fries that were crispy and well seasoned. I thought they were good but the wife said she tasted old oil. The wife and I had a house side salad and frankly, it was pathetic. It was not attractive to look at and not well assembled. It looked like someone just threw together some lettuce, a couple of cucumber slices, and some diced tomatoes and called it a salad. The portion was very small. We wanted a wedge salad but were told that they "were out." Whatever that means. We ordered the Caprese pizza, $26, which was overpriced. The crust was not thin but not thick. It completely lacked flavor. Someone forgot the salt when making the dough. The pie was not fully cooked in the middle. The ingredients, which were supposed to resemble a caprese salad, never really came together. The wife did not like it all. I was not as harsh. It was not terrible, but it was not very good. We did not take the leftovers with us. I don't know where the 4 and 5 star reviews come from. Maybe we got them on an off night. Maybe we ordered the wrong food. I don't know. But what I do know is that I would not recommend this restaurant and we will not return.

It's dark, but open air and if you like a lively loud environment when you eat, this is the place to be. There is indoor seating near the salad bar, if you want a more calmer, quiet setting, this is where you want to be. There is an outdoor setting at picnic tables, if you want an outdoor setting with water views and live music, this is where you want to be, but you will need to wait to be seated. This is an extremely casual place, no need to dress up. Some not so good: Parking here is a disaster! Uber here if you can, as the parking situation is limited and tight and you find yourself circling the lot waiting for people to leave. This place doesn't take reservations, wait times can be significantly high, which doesn't help the parking situation. If you want to eat outside, be prepared to wait. We came on a Wednesday night, 5:30 (early) in April (not the busiest time of year) and we waited 45 minutes for an outdoor table. We didn't really care as we had a drink and talked, but you might.
