Restaurant Fine dining restaurant

👍👍 A really elegant and chic, white tablecloth setting by the docks. The restaurant is situated in the upper floor area of one of the dock-front restaurants. The whole dock is full of food places and has a real buzzing energy. The candlelit ambience and old ship style interior decor creates a great set...

    A really elegant and chic, white tablecloth setting by the docks. The restaurant is situated in the upper floor area of one of the dock-front restaurants. The whole dock is full of food places and has a real buzzing energy. The candlelit ambience and old ship style interior decor creates a great setting to enjoy ones food. The fish ceviche is full of bursting flavours with pieces of zest. I particularly recommend the Parpadelle with shrimp, it’s handmade at the restaurant and was cooked perfectly Al dente. The chef paid our table a visit which is always a nice touch. I would revisit this place when next in Key West.

    We were sat immediately upon arrival! Our Server was pretty close to perfect! He recommended items and was very attentive to our needs. We ordered a bottle of Pinot Grigio -the Caprese & Oysters on a half shell. Beautiful views of the water & boats. Very nice all around experience!

    Excellent meal start to finish. Staff were phenomenal. Best ceviche (and overall dinner!) on the island - if you love a spicy, citrusy, fresh zesty marinade 👍🏻 Their homemade pastas are a must!

    Had incredible food there tonight. I live in Maryland and get Italian food from some of the greatest restaurants in DC, but this meal topped them all. Great food. To top it all off, we had an amazing waitress tonight. Ask for Alex, she’ll take good care of you.

    Belmare proved to be more than a fine dining establishment as it was truly a visual and culinary experience that exceeds expectation. My wife and I had the opportunity to celebrate our Anniversary at Belmare. The staff took joy in celebrating with us by offering a cozy romantic setting that started the night off right. Course after course the culinary experience just got better and better, a smorgasbord of culinary delights from the Chefs Ceviche to a Ribeye that just melted in your mouth. Thank you Chef Shane and your staff for making this a truly memorable occasion. I have included pics to reflect the beautiful space, views and amazing entrées. Mr. & Mrs. Corbelli

    A delicious dinner. Our waiter, Steve was very informative, friendly and attentive without being overly so. He even recommended some attractions we hadn't heard about yet. The food was by far the best meal we've had on the island! Be sure you save some room for the gelato it was 1000% worth it!

    My favorite dining experience in Key West. The service experience brought by my server added to the menu tremendously. Jarred made the whole menu execution brilliant. Highly recommend.

    From the moment you walk-in the experience begins. The staff are attentive, kind and make sure you enjoy your time there. The cuisine by Chef Shane and his culinary crew was delectable. They truly have a passion for cuisine and it is evident in each plate from design to flavor. The bar also has some great selections in wine and cocktails which are made very well. Whether you're a local or someone visiting Key West, stop in for a great meal, amazing view of the harbor and an experience you will not soon forget. The White Tarpon downstairs is also a great spot run by the same set of passionate and dedicated team. Don't miss out, be sure to stop in.

    My husband and I visited Belmare on a whim. We actually were going to eat at one their places next door but something beckoned to us here. What a phenomenal experience! Cyril was our server and was so attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. The food was amazing. I especially loved the mussels. Simple, quality ingredients just like in Italy. Every dish we had was presented so beautifully and was perfectly balanced flavor profile. It was a dinner to remember. Well done!

    This was another place we accidentally found during our visit. We came here for New Years Eve and we were excited yet it was ok. First, I had the chicken cacciatore and the mashed potatoes were a bit on the salty side. The chicken was just ok. We also ordered the squash ravioli and those were delicious. We unfortunately ordered a half ordered and it only came with five raviolis. That was on us. Next time we will order the regular size. The temptation cake was out of this world.

    Expected more unfortunately… the service was fine but the prosciutto and melon was underwhelming. It had four small - very small pieces of prosciutto and fruits that don’t go with the dish… pineapple, strawberry, berries and yogurt - just weird. We got the fish picatta special which was grouper - the flavors were good and the fish portion was excellent but it was over cooked and for a $50 piece of fish a bit of a disappointment. We generally go to the same restaurants every time we come to Key West and this time we strayed to try something different - last time making that mistake for a $260 meal - not horrible but not worth returning

    We arrived a little early for our dinner reservations and were quickly seated. We had asked for outdoor and were offered a private balcony overlooking the boardwalk and harbor. This is the spot for people watching and for a sunset as well. The tiny balcony is secluded and just large enough for a four top table. During our stay in Key West this was our best view during dinner. Service was great and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was fabulous and plentiful. I would suggest reservations for this fairly new restaurant as I believe it will only become more popular. We will definitely be returning on our next visit. Urban Cowgill May 2021

    Beautiful spot, great view of the marina and everything we ate and drank was spectacular. Honestly a good value for the level of food they serve. Will was a very intelligent and attentive server.

    The veal bolognese was so good. We were hesitant to try it because we had never had veal. The flavors were perfectly married together. I also have to say the servers were great. They were all very attentive and gave great suggestions and explanations. We would definitely eat here again.

    OK, new favorite place in Key West, amazing meal every time we go. Mothers Day deal was over the top great, fried lobster! Best craft cocktails at the bat! Always a.nice meal. Food is always fresh, well thought out menu. Everything is made in-house, and flavors do not disappoint. We love the appetizers for sharing. Pastas are house made also, and they show in the taste. Staff is always on point with knowledge about dishes and never had to ask or wait for refills. They are professional and polite. Views are amazing of the harbor, and sitting inside looking out over the harbor is great. I never give 5 stars unless I am impressed, 5 stars for them. Sit at the bar, bartender makes the best drinks and knows her stuff. One of the best old fashioned on the island. Also, the in-house drink menu does not disappoint either. Speaking on that, into wine? Go here. Best selection hands down.
