Happened upon Kretch's one night while at a conference on Marco Island. What a find! Fabulous food, great atmosphere. The service was excellent, folks were friendly. Casual and not intimidating.... but the food is out of this world!! More

What I like about Kretch's is the down home cooking. This is a place to get your comfort food fix! It was a pleasant surprise the first time we went without any expecations. The food is really good and it's not expensive. The portions were very large too. More

We were wandering around Marco Island looking for somewhere for lunch and came upon this place. There were many cars in the parking lot, so we said, "Why not"? What a find! Great varied menu with some very different things, good prices, excellent food, great value. More

My mother-in-law brought us here. Reservations are not needed but recommended in high season. Friendly staff and the food was amazing. Bread comes to your table with your drinks. Try the peach sangria! It comes in a BIG wine glass and is awesome! More

You won't be disappointed if you are looking for great value and large portions! This is a hit with the older crowd on Marco Island and you may have to wait if you arrive at 5:30 since this is when the "early birds" eat. Everything blackened is excellend as is the seafood strudel. Enjoy! More

We've been eating here for years and it's one of the best restaurants on the Island. A homey atmosphere with great service. The fish is always fresh and cooked to perfection. Nightly specials suit all tastes. More

Had an very pleasant meal. The Tuna Steak was very tasty, although they provide a dipping sauce and not rice and vegatables. My wife had the pasta primavera and vegatables. It had a weird first taste and was somewhat cheddar cheesy...wasn't the greatest. Bread and salads were very good. Service was outstanding. More

We dined at Kretch's last night with friends visiting from Finland, and all four of us had a wonderful dining experience. Three ordered the fillet mignon, which was massively thick and cooked to perfection as ordered (medium rare). I had the chargrilled Gulf amberjack fish, and it was one of the most delicious grilled pieces of fish I have ever... More
