About the Carvelli
Restaurant Group

The Carvelli and Serravalle families always cherished their childhood memories from Mesoraca, Italy when family and friends would gather for a meal and enjoy each other’s company. The family decided to set out to share and create similar memories for their neighbors of Marco Island through finely curated dining. Working to instill this sense of family in their restaurants, the family strives to reflect the same care and love their family put into every meal through their excellence in hospitality and quality of food at all of their established restaurants.

General Manager
Francesco Serravalle

The bar director / general manager / co-owner of The Oyster Society. His passion came from his father, who taught him from an early age, the winemaking process. Growing up knowing the smell of fresh grapes being crushed to make grape juice, is something that brings beautiful memories to Francesco. These are the feelings and memories Francesco hopes to share with his guests as he has created a menu full of all hand crafted cocktails using only fresh ingredients and putting his heart into each pour. His experience working with his brother and cousins in the Carvelli family at their various restaurants has instilled in him the same high level of standards that are expected from the Carvelli family name.
