Gino’s Olde Marco Trattoria

Friendly staff and a clean restaurant set the stage for a nice evening. Pizza was good and fairly priced. Only negative is music extremely loud in all parts of the restaurant making it hard to carry on a conversation

We ordered a large pepperoni pizza and a penne a la vodka dinner, and were sorely disappointed. I’ll start with the pizza. It was an 18 inch pie, which is unusual to find down here in FL. That’s really more of a NY thing, so that was good, but it was way way way too well done, almost burnt, and didn’t have enough sauce, so it was dry. As for the pasta dish, it was tasty, and that is the only reason this place gets the second star. The portion size was shameful. They filled the aluminum container up half way and had the audacity to charge $ 17.50. This is a meal that costs about $ 3 to make at home, and they still felt the need to be skimpy on the portion size. Last thing, the side of bread that came with the dinner was not Italian bread. It was sliced white bread, and was not fresh.

Jeff, our bartender was fantastic. Very friendly and great service. Pizza was great — thin crust & tasty.

Was just ok-​I wouldn’t come back. The poor waiter seemed very overloaded and didn’t have much help. The lobster bisque was very fishy-​my mom couldn’t even eat it because of the fishy taste. My husband and I had the buffalo chicken pizza. The pizza crust was good. The chicken was slimy and I didn’t taste buffalo sauce at all. I like to think of myself as a buffalo chicken pizza expert. This tasted like chicken on top of cheese with no type of sauce at all. Not impressed.

Had the pasta fazoul as others have advised and it lived up to expectations. The clams in scampi sauce was served some on the shell and some mixed in the angel hair, my choice of pasta. The sauce was lemony and garlicky but mainly tasted like white wine and clams, the other flavors present but not intrusive. A nice Malbec was a good accompaniment. Mary the waitress was very attentive. Not a desert person but I saw the tiramisu go by and it looked awesome. I love Italian and we have a lot of it on Marco. This place is all I need and ²⁄₃ the price of the BigThree. Hidden away in an office court this is hard to find but worth it.

It is Friday and our last night on the Island, we just wanted a simple dinner. We stopped into Gino’s to get a pizza. We decided to have a drink at the bar while we waited on our pizza. We ordered the Capresse pizza (cheese, prosciutto, and basil). And s couple of beers. The pie was delicious, fresh ingredients and a good crispy crust with a little chew. The staff was friendly and the bartender was super nice (from Saratoga Springs, NY). The place is hard to find, hidden in a business park, but worth the trouble.

Very difficult to find the restruarant. But nice atmosphere. chicken parm was better than ok but have had better. Would I spend $ 75 again? Even with a bottle of wine. Probably not.

Hidden away place but we figured what the heck, let’s try it for takeout. We were very happy with the quality of the food. And the service was good as was the drink we had while we waited. I would recommend that you give it a try if your on Marco.

I went in tonight and found that stolen bread! But in all seriousness this place has the best pizza on the island. Try the white pizza it’s so delicious with the ricotta cheese on there. Pasta dishes are great too. Check it out for a good meal!

Excellent selection of wine and drinks! Lots of room for small and big parties in the new bigger location. Italians cuisine is superb, I recommend the pizza, pasta, veal and chicken entrees. Also the bruschetta appetizer is delicious! You must also try the tiramisu desert, you might be full from your entrée but it’s worth it just for a bite or two! Staff is friendly and quick, I highly re commend this establishment.

This place is ok. if you don’t feel like waiting in lines and just want to get some thing like pizza, or pasta go ahead and give it a try.. The calzone was decent.. A lityle under cooked but pretty big for the price… drinks are over priced and not too nuch of a selection…

This is a great find here on Marco Island. We were ready to take a break from Seafood & Steaks so a real Italian restaurant sounded good. Being from Central N.Y. which has a heavy Italian presence– the bar was set high. I am happy to announce that my expectations were exceeded! Started out with a Calamari appetizer. Nice texture and flavor with a tasty sauce on the side. Went old school with the lasagne — spot on. Great sauce, fresh ricotta, and tasty mozzarella = Yum. Another person in our party had the veal. Again, flavorful, cut with a fork tender, pasta cooked just right. If you have room for dessert: fresh made cannoli and the Tiramisu are both winners. Friendly wait staff along with a pleasant atmosphere. Will definitely be on my list to revisit when I’m back in the area.

One of the best Italian Restaurants in Marco Island and not even owned by Italians. Beautiful interior, nice atmosphere and all of the food is great.

First off, very difficult to find. Parked then waited 10 minutes in reception for someone to tell us where to sit. There were 2 tables seated and we didn’t see one waiter or host. We ended up leaving after 10 minutes and walked over to cocomos grill which was delicious. Never going to come here again.

First time at gino’s. My husband and I have been to marco island many times snd wanted to try a new place. We were very disappointed. Bread was microwaved; hot but hard to chew. We both ordered the specials: mahi-​mahi and chicken dishes. The mahi-​mahi dish was flavorless and the chicken dish floated in a loose gravy was terrible. I would be embarrassed to serve this food as a chef.

Nice atmosphere, cute bar area! Great employees, very friendly. Good pizza! I will defiantly return.

Cute atmosphere and comfy bar area. Veal was tender and tasty… Pizza was good. Not too impressed with the Calzone… it didn’t look like a calzone and the dough was very different from a traditional.
Overall — good place to get some eats. Good value for the price. Alex the bartender was very helpful and social — made the visit even more enjoyable!

This was a pretty good place until it moved and expanded. Now it’s just awful. Our meal was close to inedible. Not cold, just tasteless. Our waiter was friendly but clearly untrained. The evening was ridiculous. Take the silverware, don’t bring any back. Take drink orders, then come around for food order before the drinks arrive. Very, very busy, which may reflect the low prices, although our meal bill was anything but a bargain. There are so many better places on Marco Island. The owners — really nice people — need to get a handle on food and service, fast, or they’re not going to make it. Shame.

New location is more roomy and pleasant. Service ok but food is at the low end of italian restaurants on the island. We had veal and eggplant but entrees were tasteless and covered in a mediocre red sauce. Everyone else in restaurant was having pizza and it looked ok. Suggest you try Davinci’s, Arturos or the best Sale and Pepe for italian food.

The new location is a little hidden in a business park but once inside, the interior is very welcoming. Contemporary and sleek. We have been going to the old Gino’s location for some time and this updated restaurant is sure to please the Gino’s loyals. The menu is pretty much the same from what I can tell with the addition of a nice bar and a full liquor license. Though the wine selection is pretty minimal. We got a bunch of food to go and everyone liked the quality of the food we have all been enjoying for years.
