    Food compared to other JW high end steak houses was quite awful. Service was great but the ribeye and seabass was lack luster at best. Super disappointed for the cost

    The food was disgusting, the only thing that was decent was the French onion soup which tasted pretty average. I got the $160 dollar seafood tower which comes with beaver creek oysters which you could barely even get any meat out of very disappointing and a whole main lobster that tasted disgusting and most of it was stuck to the shell because it was so overcooked. The seabass dip tasted like cat food meow and the crab meat tasted spoiled. The shrimp was the nastiest thing you will ever taste, go to pinchers for crying out loud. And I’ve had many seafood towers and for $160 they didn’t even pre cut the seafood for you which makes it so much easier to get the meat out of the lobster and crab legs. I had a great experience at Marco’s Prime Steak and Seafood and the Oyster society very delicious I would skip this disgusting place and check out those two.

    Dry aged prime rib special was amazing, I’ve been to the best steakhouses in the world and have never had a prime rib prepared this well!

    We had a great experience at Ario on Marco Island. Our waiter, Nezo, went above and beyond to make our evening one to remember. He had great recommendations from food to wine and was overall a very creative individual, setting up an outdoor table for us after deciding to move from the indoors to the outdoors. Would highly recommend the hibachi crudo (when in season) and the steak tartare (Nezo’s favorite as well)!
