    Been dining at this venue every year for 15+ and it has slipped. Ran out of the dinner special, the catch of the day, a pasta "standard" and the filet mignon (really??). They confirm reservations 2days in advance so it can't be a question of dining numbers. The branzino was over cooked. The mixed drinks were over iced. Haven't minded paying top dollar for all these years but this wasn't up to the usual " best of the best" expectation.
    Sale e Pepe - Marco Beach Ocean ResortResponded 2 days ago
    John, thank you for your honest feedback and for being a loyal guest for over 15 years—that truly means a lot to us. We're very sorry to hear that your recent experience didn’t meet the high standards you've come to expect. Running out of key menu items and the quality issues you mentioned are not reflective of what we strive for, and we take your comments seriously. We’re sharing this with our team to ensure we do better, and we hope you'll consider giving us another chance to make things right.

    We have eaten at this restaurant a number of times and always enjoyed it. The last time we went was just mediocre, but we chalked it up to a bad night. However, last night was terrible. We ordered the Crudo which was good. The next course was the Ragu pasta with short rib. The pasta was thick, underdone, and the sauce was watery. Totally tasteless. I ordered the Branino which was adequate, and my husband ordered the veal Milanese. The veal was tough, definitely not a chop that was pounded, and overall tasteless.  our server Jose was excellent, but it was an experience that was definitely not what we were expecting. We will never repeat again. 
    Sale e Pepe - Marco Beach Ocean ResortResponded 4 days ago
    Diane, thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience with us. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your most recent visit fell so far below your expectations. While we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the Crudo and received excellent service from Jose, we’re disappointed to learn that the rest of your meal didn’t meet the standards we aim to uphold. Your feedback is taken seriously, and we’ll be addressing this with our culinary team to ensure we’re consistently delivering the quality you—and all our guests—deserve. We understand how important it is to feel confident in returning to a favorite restaurant, and we’re sorry to have lost that trust. Though we respect your decision, we would love the opportunity to make things right should you reconsider in the future.
