We had a fantastic experience here for dinner. The staff was extremely good and the food was great. They have a great drink menu and wine list. We really enjoyed the beef carpaccio and the fries were outstanding. The steaks were all great. Even though they were slightly overcooked (we ordered medium and got almost well done) they were tender and delicious. The desert was also very good. Big bonus that they are very kid friendly. Overall, I'd definitely enjoy eating here again.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly. Staff is good with kids and they have plenty of high chairs.
We came this evening for a company dinner with SGC. The food was fantastic. The two gentlemen that served our party were absolutely incredible and so funny. We had a great time.

My family visits Marco Prime every time we are at Marco Island! Sea Bass and espresso martini's are my favorites here.
Honestly, we weren't expecting much here - until our amazing waitress Alona(?) helped us pick our entire meal. She NAIILED it, from the scallops, to the Chilean sea bass, to the Wagyu Filet w/ potatoes. My wife and I absolutely loved every part of the experience. If I could change one thing, I'd like to see the wagyu offerings a hair lower priced. We really wanted the Wagyu "experience", but the $300 price tag for 7oz~ is honestly a bit extreme, maybe if it came all inclusive instead of a la carte? That's more than the premium aged elevated cuts from the legendary Berns Steakhouse in Tampa.If we make it back down here again we will most likely come again. ?

Sat at the bar and the service was pretty immediate. Big place so they are very busy - ordered a $72 NY Prime and had to send it back because it was over cooked. They fired it again and the steak was now undercooked because they were trying to get it out.Luckily the bartender said they will take off the steak but overall not a great “steakhouse”. It’s also inside a strip mall ?

Miso glazed sea bass and the scallops are certainly fantastic choices. Their soufflé is the best decadent desert I’ve had. It’s larger than I remember so be sure to get one and share!!!
Dined at Marco Prime for the 1st time last night. Food was excellent, service and atmosphere just as good. Would go here again. ?

The absolute best steakhouse on the island! Maybe anywhere. Their happy hour is not to be missed. The chef is insanely creative and the staff is exceptional. Have truly never had a bad experience. And, I must mention the wine list- top tier! 10/10 recommend.

This place is a major ripoff for the unwary. Something has happened to Marco Prime and its sister restaurants Oyster Society and DaVinci. As longtime fans of the Carvelli Group of restaurants, we noticed some substantial slippage in quality last year and it has apparently accelerated this year. At Marco Prime, I ordered a strip steak that cost $72. It was terrible! The most unflavorable steak that I have ever eaten. My wife ordered the scallops, also boring and flavorless. There is no wow factor. There isn't even any good or average factor. It's just plain bad. Over $200 for two people and all we got was garbage. This place has become a major league ripoff. Apparently, the Carvelli family thinks they can cut corners and cash in on the hordes of newbie visitors to Marco Island who don't know any better.

The food was great but the atmosphere and service really suffered based on a group of 6 individuals with no self control who were extremely loud and used profanity in a mixed groupAfter alerting the management who took very little action the behavior continuedWhen the group finally left the entire room applaudedThe management was given plenty of opportunity to correct the situation but the manager Matt choose to observe rather than correctFood was great but never going back
