Mediterranean
*Reservations made are for indoor dining room only. Outdoor dining is available as first come first serve.*

Tesoro, the Italian and Spanish word for "treasure," is truly a fitting name for this culinary destination, and it is also appropriate that the second syllable is "oro", which means "gold" in Italian and Spanish, because one of Marco Island's best treasures are its golden sunsets.

Savor inspiring Mediterranean cuisine served tapas style and fresh Gulf seafood. Toast the sunset with hand-crafted cocktails and martinis or choose from an extensive wine selection.

As the resort's only adult-exclusive (21 & up) dining destination, Tesoro will provide an intimate culinary escape highlighted by stylish interiors, a polished contemporary lounge and an indoor/outdoor bar. Reservations are made for the Dining Room Only from 5pm-10pm.

*Lounge Entertainment: Thursday - Sunday: 6 pm - 9 pm

    Service was beyond bad. We only got to order one drink during dinner. And our waters were only refilled once. The waiter basically disappeared for long stretches of time.

    The staff was great, above and beyond, and the food was excellent. Best of all is the view, even from inside great views of the sunset. We loved the small plates (tapas), and a very good wine list also!

    We ate inside. Very modern and comfortable. The menu isn’t extensive but all four in our party found something interesting and enjoyed it. After dinner we went out on the rooftop, had an after dinner drink and listened to live music. Beautiful setting. We’ll be back.

    The $62 steak was very good but small and expensive. Our used dishes sat on the table for a while with repeated waiter visits. Lovely atmosphere. Not overly impressed with the small dishes and the Greek salad was terrible and tiny

    Tesoro is still not back to it's pre-COVID excellence. Waited 10 minutes for someone to appear at the check in stand. Very slow service for dinner. The menu is still interesting and the food was very good.

    This was such a strange dinner, and pretty disappointing. The outdoor terrace during sunset is amazing, but dinner inside was not great. It was weirdly quiet, the food was decent (honestly mediocre) and the service was pretty bad and slow. It took over an hour to get water, and the server forgot things multiple times, then never addressed it or brought them. She brought us the dessert menu after dinner, then never came back to take our order. We ended up having to ask another server for the bill, then left and had dessert at a different restaurant. I’d suggest going for a cocktail around sunset, then going to Ario (or another restaurant) for dinner.

    Lovely atmosphere with a modern touch…have a drink on the bar patio before your reservation and see a most stunning sunset! We had a sparking strawberry martini which was delicious and beautiful to look at. Great Mediterranean menu, we shared a mezzo plate, I had the brazino with sea pea risotto and my daughter had the chicken with couscous, both delicious. Very nice service, a lovely evening experience.

    Service was slow…. Our drinks were empty for more than half of dinner never gave us water glasses. We had reservations at 7:30 we got there at 6:20 to have a drink and sit at the bar thank goodness we ended up getting a table in the bar because the hostess who we told we would be in the bar never came to get us for our table and I never got a notification on my phone that our table we had under our reservation was ready it was very weird. Honestly after coming to the marriott for over 10 years now I’m very disappointed at my experience. Would not recommend.

    Great view for cocktails only. Was informed that our 6:30 reservation was for indoors only. We put our name in for an outside table. After a half hour of noticing 5 tables empty and people being seated after us. I asked the hostess if we can have a table. Server was very nice and apologetic. An hour and a half later, food still hasn't arrived. We finally just paid for our drinks and left.

    Our dinner started with a problem - the restaurant blocked its main room for a party and did not notify us until we were already in the restaurant "so that not to disturb your dinner plans." They offered a choice between a low to the ground lounge chair and a table right next to a large loudspeaker. After expressing our dissatisfaction to several "I am just a hostess/waitress/etc" employees, we were introduced to a manager and things started to improve. We were offered complimentary drinks and were assured that the first good table on the terrace will be ours. Once we were seated at a nice terrace table(I have to admit - faster than I expected) it became clear why the table by the loudspeaker was vacant. Even seating in the opposite corner we often had to read each other lips. The food was good - with one interesting little quirk. Who came up with the idea of putting marinated mushrooms on a flatbread pizza? IMO he combination did not work.

    Very disappointed in the restaurant. Food quality was mediocre at best for the price. We had to ask to be waited on after we were seated. We have eaten at many fine places in the US and world, this was not one of them. Much better food on the island at a lower price

    The food was good. No complaints but it was nothing special, just average fair. Service was very slow and inattentive. Starting with an awkward interaction with the hostess. We had to wait an extended period of time for the hostess to arrive at the hostess stand. I then explained I had a reservation but they did not reserve a table and just generally asked where we would like to sit. It was just a very weird interaction to start. At the table, it took a long time to order drinks and each course. It also took a long time to get the check and close out. We were celebrating my girlfriend's birthday and it was not acknowledged once. I had added special note into my reservation here. One of my friends is a food and beverage director at the JW, they called the day before to confirm our reservation and wanted to surprise her with a chocolate cake. The server had no knowledge of this and again had a awkward interaction when I tried to explain it to him.

    We were able to be seated outside to enjoy the sunset and Gulf views! Pedro was our server. We’ve had him twice now and he remembered us. He was so amazing! He addressed us by name. He was very attentive and knew the menu well. It was a Saturday evening and there was music; my husband enjoyed the Doobie Bros songs! Drinks and food were delicious. We love this place! Highly recommend.

    My fiancé and I own a house on Marco island, however we’ve been coming to Marco for 13+ years before we bought, always staying at the JW Marriott. I finally was able to bring my 85 yr old parents down for a week and of course I took them to the Marriott for dinner. Typically we go to Ario, but since Tesoro changed their menu we thought we’d try it. We were not disappointed at all! The food was delicious along with the drinks and service. Our waitress was exceptional. She honored my father who is a navy veteran in a very memorable way, and thanked him for his service several times. We were very appreciative of her acknowledgment, I wish I got her name. We were there for the spectacular Marco sunset which made the night just perfect.

    The ambiance of the restaurant is quite nice and the views of the sunset and beach are the highlights of this 21 year and older eatery. I found the menu quite confusing as to what would actually be served. And the service leaves much to be desired. At lunch I was served a meal with no silverware or napkins, and at dinner, I had to get up to take napkins from another table as our server was nowhere to be found, even though the restaurant was not even 1/2 occupied. Also the server could not adequately explain the menu further. Lunch and dinner Menu choices were extremely limited. Lots of bread or naan bread was served. Their dinner (medium plate) charcuterie type board left much to be desired. It was an extremely disappointing eating experience for lunch and dinner. Lunch was better than dinner. We had a hamburger and a pita with lamb, both had fries and were quite good. The only issue being service at lunch. Dinner was a total disappointment in every aspect. I would not eat here again. For dinner, I would suggest Ario, also in same resort, over this place.

    Gorgeous venue! Service staff extremely rude to us as we figured out seatings system. Thank goodness we had a reservation- because waitress was curt and abrupt telling is- “you can’t sit there”, “you can’t bring your bar drink to table”, “you can’t sit down til we clean table”, she needs to check with host”, we “need to stand up and not sit at table”. Honestly felt harassed and humiliated. Of course host told us no problem, no one was waiting and we had a reservation! Waitress was not nice at all and I have no idea what her issue was!!

    Maybe it was an off night but the service was very bad, the appetizer we finally got was not great & overpriced. We waited so long for our 2nd drink & main course that we finally left. Manager was very nice & apologetic. Not sure what was going on because the other restaurants at the hotel were great.
