Arturo's Bistro

"First time here for my Dad's birthday. If you like seafood - go with the special! My Dad got the special and I was eyeing it HARD! The Jambalaya was still very good, but the calamari appetizer was kind of disappointing. Too bready, and tentacle pieces were basically all bread and no squid. Even though I can't really do butter or dairy (blessed be the lactaid), the escargot was GREAT! Perfectly cooked."

"A great choice for a fancy meal on Marco. From the white tablecloths to premium service it's a great place for a high end meal. Repeat customer."

"We've been coming to Marco Island for 16 years, this is hands down the best meal I've had on the island. We've been all over the Island to restaurants and paid their exorbitant prices for sub par meals with a decent view. While there isn't a view, I would rather come here and actually have the kitchen/staff care about my dining experience. Incredibly polite and friendly service with a great relaxing atmosphere. The food was out fast and made exactly how we ordered it. We got the Cobia, Salmon, Stuffed Pork Chops and the Beef Bolognese and all were delicious. We will be back on our next visit! Highly recommend!"

"We are at Arturo's for Thanksgiving. The special (traditional Turkey dinner) was amazing. Also can't say enough for the shrimp scampi and Grouper entree. At the top of the list was the service. Everyone was friendly and we wanted for nothing."

"We were so disapointed in New years eve. 1st when we called it was not explained that it was a set menu & price. We were surprised calling 3 days prior that they had open reservations. We arrived & the restaurant was not full. The set menu 1st to our surprise; had no Italian options. There were no prices on the set menu. The options were, sautéed seabass, chicken Oscar, surf & turf or ribeye. You had an appetizer choice, salad or soup, main entree & then dessert. The seabass was fine, clean & not greasy. 2nd the ribeye that my mom had was full of fat & was not a pricey piece of meat, my husband had the filet & cold water lobster tail & it was not served hot nor was the drawn butter. 3rd we were shocked at the cost of $95 per plate. I can't imagine paying that for the chicken Oscar dish. They did comp us 50 towards the ribeye plate because of the poor quality. I'm so sorry we spent over $300 to take my mom to this disappointing meal. We definitely expected more quality from arturos."
