Ordered spaghetti with Garlic and Oil. But instead...just got garlic and oil.
Christian G.

Staying at the JW Marriot and wanted some pizza. This restaurant had high reviews on Yelp. 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)

Mouth watering flavorful lamb chops.

What a gem! Delicious lamb chops! We had mostly appetizers the first day then lamb chops the second day. Service was excellent. Great value! Didn't get a chance to try the pizza.

The best tiramisu- home made at Sami's

A hidden jewel on Marco Island that you can't miss. Nothing fancy, but great food good prices, but more importantly great people. We found Sami's last year on a trip to Marco Island after the exhausting drive from our home in Naples, Florida:-). We sat at the bar and had a glass of wine and pizza, which is a great pizza with fabulous sauce and toppings. The atmosphere was so pleasant. We went back again last night and were lucky enough to be served by joy and we met John the manager. He's truly a hands-on manager, and it is evident by the kind people that work there and the comfortable environment. If you haven't tried this restaurant you need to do so. There's something for everyone with one of the most expansive menus I've ever seen. They also make their own homemade tiramisu, which is a must try.

We visited during a holiday weekend and the service at Sami's was incredible. You'd think that service would be slow, but that was not the case. Our large party was very happy. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. The live music was great, we even had a Sweet Caroline sing-a-long. Looking forward to dining at Sami's when we visit Marco Island next time.

They allow pizza mixing.  A great solution when the family all wants different types!  We order a large pizza and apps.  Everyone was happy!

Great service. Awesome family spot. Reasonably priced. Order a large mix pizza and apps for a budget pleasing, family friendly meal

Best pizza I've had in a while!! We ordered Sami's Pizza with choice of toppings (basil, garlic, extra cheese, olives). It looked like a cartoon pizza the way the cheese stretched out. Their service was also immaculate. Someone greets every guest as they open the door for you. The lights are dimmed, and they're quick with getting the food out and ready. I would totally recommend this restaurant. The only thing that might be presumed as negative is the pricing. Some of the menu items are higher in price than most other pizzerias I've been to. Otherwise excellent!

OUTSTANDING quality food and EXCEPTIONAL service that should serve as an exemplary standard for the restaurant industry. We were blown away after eating multiple meals here because everything tasted perfect and we could not come up with a single sentence how or where they could further improve themselves. Pizza was as good as a pie made in Howard Beach NY or at a Lower Manhattan pizzeria that's been in business for over 50 years. Wings were done just right , crunchy on the outside , soft and juicy inside , steak fries were amazing, calamari was probably the best I ever had. That marinara sauce was perfection. Lamb chops were seasoned just right and cooked to perfection. Even the balsamic vinegar on the salad was super premium quality. I can tell the owner takes pride in what he serves and it's reflected in literally every item on the menu. If you're reading this review, stop reading and go over to Sami's for the best food on Marco Island.

The restaurant was 5 mins from the hotel and didnt have a huge wait so we were able to sit right down and get an order in. Service was solid, spot was casual but with an upscale vibe. We started with the garlic rolls and a side salad (that came with the pasta) and both were very good. Garlic rolls were fresh and full of flavor without being too oily. Food wise, we ordered cheese ravioli and the gnocchi with grilled chicken, both in vodka sauce. We also ordered a large cheese pie, Joeys way, without the sausage. The ravioli and gnocchi came out HOT! You can tell these were freshly made and cooked to order and they were devoured quickly. The pizza to me, was the star of the show. It reminded me of tavern style chicago thin crust pizza. Paper thin, cut into squares and the perfect balance of sauce and cheese. Between me and my son, we ate the whole pizza! If we end up back in Marco island, Joeys will definitely be on the list to return to!

Many pizza restaurants will say they offer NY style pizza only to be so disappointed when it arrives at my house. Although they don't deliver, you can get Door Dash or some other delivery service unless you want to eat in or pick it up yourself. I personally don't like Door Dash because they leave the delivery outside on the ground where fire ants and other creatures can get into your food. No ringing of the doorbell, no knock on the door. They literally just leavevit outside. Guess that's why their name has Dash in it! You'll never know when your food has arrived. The Chef at Joey's has many years of experience and he makes an incredible crust, delicious sauce; he will not disappoint you. They have different sizes, we get the large for two people because that is how delicious this pizza is. They also offer Italian dinners. The garlic rolls and canolis are mouth watering. I have been down here for 30 years from the NE area and am so happy to finally have found the perfect NY style pizza. You must give it a try! Laurie Lee Diorio

Anyone who has tried to seat a party of 45 anywhere knows what a miracle that is. The hospitality here is the real deal. This is a true mom-and-pop family-owned Italian restaurant, and they treated all 45 of us like we were their own relatives. Warm, attentive, genuinely happy to have us -- never rushed, never overwhelmed, always checking in. And the food. Out of this world. Every single plate that came out was fresh, generous, and made with obvious love. Homemade Italian cooking the way it's supposed to taste. Our whole table went quiet, which with our family never happens. If you're visiting Marco Island and want authentic Italian food, incredible service, and a place that can actually handle a large group, big family dinner, or special occasion -- go to The Boulevard.

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 person on the phone was concerned and offered to remake our pizza for us, great. I picked up the remade pizza and brought with me the pie in question. Another person, possibly the manager, defended the questionable pie with her pencil pointing out the sauce. I shared I had ordered Addtl sauce and still cannot see what she is talking about and that my taste buds didn't taste sauce. She showed me the remade pizza and I shared there was sauce but very little and I had ordered Addtl sauce! I then shared when the little guy manager was there I never had a problem. She had some disgusting reference to him and I shared I didn't appreciate her reference to someone I had the utmost respect for. At this point I realized I was not getting my dissatisfaction realized and shared I WILL NEVER BE BACK TO THIS LITTLE CESARS, EVER!!!

So give your self a good better best kind selection when ordering for a local beer menu! Food: My wife had an appetizer portion of boneless wings: looks to be white meat chicken that was pan fried till crispy not deep fried which she enjoyed the crispness off. She got there bbq sauce tasted like baby rays but didn't confirm. We split a large bar style pretzel! Super salty but in a good way. Then we made the discovery as I asked about a side of honey mustard! THEY MAKE THERE OWN HINEY MUSTARD WITH REAL Honey!!! Delicious! I had the Baja shrimp tacos! We're a good size definitely recommend! Nice hint of kick!! Our baby who was with us had Mac and cheese it was Kraft. But we were ok with that knowing exactly what is was. Totally underrated and hope people use this review to take a real look into the restaurant. Service was super nice! Very accommodating to family's. Which has its own challenges while being in Marco island. We will return! Good luck everyone!!! See you next year

We had a server and her trainee come over to take our drink orders. I got one of their house beers and the rest of the party got sodas/waters. After scanning the menu we had our orders in mind, but our servers were nowhere in sight. After about 10-15 minutes, they came back with the drinks and took our orders. We werent super hungry, so we ordered an app and a couple dishes. The large soft pretzel with cheese sauce, their cuban sandwich and some pasta for the kids. The food took another 20+ minutes to come out but lets run down the list. Lets start with the app, the pretzel. Came out and it was stale. It was luke warm, undersalted and the cheese sauce tasted like watered down cheese from a can. As a BIG fan of pretzels, this one was a big letdown. Entree wise, the pasta and the cuban, also let downs. The pasta was stiff. Not Al Dente, stiff as in undercooked and oversauced. The Cuban sandwich looked good coming out, but after ONE bite I knew it wasnt going to be good. I dont want to say the meat was bad or sour, but after three attempts, I was done and didnt want any more. There was another large gap in server visits to ask if we needed another beer or any refills so I made every effort to flag down our waitresses so we could get the check and get out of there. Needless to say, as far a brewery goes, I wouldnt go back to Marco Island brewery.
