About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for scenic views
"Bel Mare means 'beautiful ocean' in Italian. We specialize in coastal Italian food served with an emphasis on traditional fine dining. Not only does our food come from that beautiful ocean, but our dining room overlooks it. The gorgeous yachts docked in the foreground of the A&B Marina make for stunning views and sunsets over that beautiful ocean!"

    We came 1/2 hour earlier than our reservation and they accommodated us. Excellent service and food. A beautiful and classy oasis in the midst of Key West.

    Fantastic view from our outside table. The food was outstanding. The service from beginning to end was great. The Key lime pie for desert topped off a great evening.

    Our recent dining experience at Bel Mare was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious—each dish was thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. One of the true highlights of the evening was the stunning view of the marina. Watching the sunset over the water while enjoying a fantastic meal made for an unforgettable experience. The ambiance, paired with the quality of service and cuisine, makes Bel Mare a standout destination. I highly recommend dining at Bel Mare. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a memorable night out, this place delivers on every level.

    Great food and service. Yes it is a little pricey but then it is Key West. The ambience was terrific as we ate outside and the weather was perfect. We focused on fish since we were on the ocean but we heard others remarking on the high quality of their land based servings. Overall we would highly recommend this place for a lovely evening out together!!

    Dinner at Bel Mare is an excellent experience. Overlooking the marina and being served fabulous food can’t be beat. Henrow, our server was outstanding. He suggested two specials that were amazing. An appetizer of whipped feta and mascarpone with balsamic roasted strawberries was a real treat. The scallops 5 of them, were served with lemon risotto and green cauliflower with a pomegranate reduction on the side. Truly amazing. The tried and true mushroom soup with tellegio and veal bolognese with house homemade pasta are still hits. Can’t wait to go back.

    This restaurant is upstairs across from A&B Lobster (under the same management) and the menu features Italian specialities. Our waiter, Steven, was attentive and friendly.
