This was such a gem. I booked it weeks before Christmas and knew little about it. The reviews looked good so I went with it. They were able to accommodate more people when we had surprise visitors and the service and food were outstanding . A very enjoyable experience.

Consistently fabulous food and great service! Jason and rest of staff were very attentive refilling waters, checking on us and bringing extra sauce when needed —all despite very large private gathering in another dining room! We never felt rushed, it was easy to chat despite full lunch crowd spread throughout rooms- Comfortable seating, good food presentations & reasonable prices- Love taking friends and family here, NEVER disappoints!

Had to push our reservation due to flight issues and the staff was very accommodating for a busy Friday night. Ending up getting there early and found a spot at the bar. Bartender was extremely friendly and provided great service. Only complaint would be two dogs on the patio, one of which was sitting on one of the barstools.

Great appetizers and main entrees. Had the charcuterie, roasted artichokes and a caprese salad. All excellent for the 5 of us. Entrees included Gnocchi, clams and pasta, carbonara, and penne puttanesca. Couple bottles of Silverado Chardonnay. Excellent food and excellent service. Have been there 4x and on Isle of Capri at least a dozen times. Never disappoints.

We visited Pub 1105 in October and were very happy with our experience. Since then the menu has been expanded and the food is as excellent as our first visit. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The restaurant staff has adjusted to higher volume successfully. We are very happy that Pub 1105 has brought a southern cuisine restaurant to Marco! Highly recommended.
