From the start this place is fantastic. Got the double mixed berry jam mimosa, besides being tasty it worked like a lava lamp as the smashed fruit kept rising and falling with the bubbles. We got the Seafood Trio Omelette and Crab Cake Benedict. Both were fantastic as we switched half way to try each dish. However, the quote from my wife "Holy Fuck" when switched is she tried the Crab Cake Benedict read more

This is a more upscale restaurant in the Keys. The food is superior and never disappoints. They accommodated a late night drop-in and made us feel welcome. The food is excellent. We started with a shared salad and we shared one of the specials as well. They split both servings and made me one of the best rum Old fashioned drinks I have ever had. The fish special was excellent. (See pictures) Also a very good Key Lime Pie. (Thanks for the anniversary dessert) read more

After stopping in here last year on a Food & Walking tour, I was excited to come back for a dinner reservation this year. I made a reservation on Open Table and requested balcony seating which we were given. I also noted that it was a birthday dinner which the server also recognized by bringing out dessert at the end of the meal. We all absolutely loved our food and the service was top notch. Our waiter was knowledgeable of the menu, friendly, and never kept us waiting or wanting for anything. He brought clean flatware between courses and kept our beverages full. I enjoyed the Heart of Palm salad with added grilled shrimp which was plentiful. Others at the table had the snapper (whole fish!), lobster fettuccine, and roasted chicken. We also devoured the lobster Mac and Cheese as a starter. I would definitely recommend dining her if you want higher end service and food right on Duval Street. read more

I have been here A LOT. Bagatelle never disappoints. The historic house with old Florida charm, the great staff and amazing food really elevate your Key West experience. I recently tried their brunch happy hour and now I will make it a point to do it every time I am in Key West. the lobster mac and cheese was the perfect portion and the cocktails are totally worth it! Do the brunch happy hour, sit at the bar. You'll love it read more

After scouring Duval Street for something different we stumbled upon this wrap around balcony seating restaurant that was originally a 200 year old bahamian style house. The burrata salad, the breakfast tacos and warm brie were splendid. The food and location were great but the service from the waiter was lousy and took away from the entire visit and not what we expected at a nice place. read more

Definitely recommend! read more

We had made reservations in advance so we were able to be seated right away. We had brunch and was seated upstairs inside. It was bright and sunny outside, so glad we were indoors. Had the fish tacos with black beans and rice. The fish tacos were not heavy and was very light. The cilantro cream sauce was really good. The pico de gallo was very refreshing to have. Our waitress was very nice and had the prettiest name. She made sure to keep filling up our waters on that hot day. There can be a wait for the bathrooms, but there is bathrooms upstairs and one bathroom downstairs. read more

This review is for the daily HH 4-6pm. While waiting for sunset celebration at Mallory Square, we decided to stop and have early dinner here. we ordered their specialty cocktail : cucumber cooler and the mule. The mule was our favorite, like the ginger beer, it match well with vodka. The cucumber cooler has a bit of bitter after taste, it's quite refreshing. The happy hour food portions are small, which is good for us, as we are not that hungry. The lobster Mac and cheese was really flavorful, love the mac and the crispy topping. Pork tostoda was okay, the pulled pork was great. overall, this was a great HH experience. read more

The restaurant itself is stunning, and the food was clearly well-prepared and thoughtfully presented. Unfortunately, the service fell far short of what one would expect in a high-end dining experience. Our waitress, Tracey, appeared disengaged and lacked even basic attentiveness throughout the evening. We endured long stretches without acknowledgment, and when interactions did occur, they felt rushed and impersonal. At no point were we asked if we would like another glass of wine, and when dessert was mentioned, she began walking away before we had the chance to respond. It's worth noting that we arrived early to enjoy happy hour at the downstairs bar, where the service was exceptional, attentive, welcoming, and truly reflective of the level of hospitality we had hoped to experience throughout the night. In hindsight, we wish we had stayed there. In a restaurant of this caliber, service should complement the quality of the food and atmosphere. read more

Bagatelle is a standout spot in Key West with a fun, lively atmosphere and consistently good food.

Enjoyed a lovely date night at Bagatelle. Love when homes are converted into restaurants- makes for such pretty decor. Everything we ordered was plated beautifully. Staff was very professional & polished. It was a nice change of pace in key west to dine somewhere upscale, and I felt the food and service was well worth the price. I did choose this restaurant specifically because of all the rave reviews about the swordfish- unfortunately to me the seasoning was way too salty and I've had better swordfish if I'm being honest. However everything else we ate and drank was simply delicious- highly recommend sharing the lobster mac & cheese, and my husband and I both loved the grouper entree. read more

So glad to have finally tried Bagatelle. We were a large group and seated quickly, though I'm almost certain someone in our group had a reservation. The service was excellent! I started with the cucumber basil martini and it was stand out delicious. For dinner I got the blackened swordfish and was really impressed by it! The serving size was way more than enough for me. We did get a couple orders of mussels for the table and as someone who only eats mussels occasionally, if not rarely, I found theirs phenomenal... I really liked the cognac peppercorn cream sauce. I was able to try some of the Key Lime Pie and found it good but thought was maybe too much meringue for me, though I recognize that's kind of a key west staple. read more

We started with happy hour at a high top downstairs for a cocktail then moved to the outside balcony on the upper level. Ambiance was excellent for both styles of our visit. They had a great wine selection and we enjoyed a bottle of Cab with our dinner. We started with a Caesar which had nice pieces of white anchovies (mine only) and then we both had blackened swordfish which was cooked and seasoned to perfection over risotto. We finished off with a glass of baileys on the rocks. Dinner was 2.5 hours of overlooking Duval ave in KeyWest. An incredible evening with service that wasn't pushy but there when we needed something. read more

The good: really cute and good vibes off Duval street. The bad: The signs outside, along with the website offer a morning happy hour ending at 11:30. When we got inside at 10:45, we were told it is only at the bar, so we moved upstairs to some additional bar tables. The server upstairs said HH ends at 11 now per her owner, and since it was 11:01 she couldn't put it in the system. After involving several other staff, they said they would honor the 11:30 time. The food was super average. The lobster mac and cheese had a couple specks of lobster in it. The corned beef hash was very dried out and had a lot of fatty pieces that looked like potato. The cornflake French toast was ok, but wouldn't go back for it. Very glad we only paid HH price for this! read more

Had breakfast at Bagatelle on Saturday morning. The restaurant is lovely just lovely. Beautiful decor. We had lovely Sol take care of us. What a wonderful server. She was sweet and very attentive. We found our breakfast dishes to be well prepared, very flavorful and nicely presented. We had some delicious Mango Mojitos. You have to get those. Why not a 5 you ask? The whole time we were sitting there an employee was talking to someone else at the bar in such a loud manner that we couldn't enjoy our time together. We heard all about here displeasure with God knows who. She was very distracting. I couldn't understand why Mgmt did not address it. It was unfortunate. I felt like I could not enjoy my food in what was a beautiful, romantic environment. read more

Absolutely exceptional food and service. Beats some of the best steakhouses I have been to. Filet and ribeye were cooked to perfection.

I highly recommended coming here for a delicious date night for an amazing experience. read more

Came here for lunch. The menu has GF options listed. We ordered different flavored mimosas to start. I indicated that I was GF/celiac and the server hesitated for a second. I just ordered from the GF items on the menu. My friend and I split the Bagatelle salad and garden omelette with no mushrooms. The food was really good and I did not have any symptoms afterwards. They do not have any GF dessert options. read more

Stopped by here for a brunch and we were very pleased with that decision. Our waitress was just wonderful and offered interesting specials and pointed out the stars of the menu. The front porch seating is beautiful with plenty of shade on a hot Florida afternoon.

Will definitely be back and highly recommend to check out this gem a short walk from Mallory square. read more

This place came highly recommend to us and thus, we decided to eat here on our first night in Key West. We entered the restaurant and there was no one there. We were sat outside and I went to the bathroom. When I came back, there were three other tables outside. What? Luckily, we were the first ones sat. Otherwise, we might have not stayed. One table actually got up and left. Obviously, we don't know why. My guess is either the menu was too pricey or they were frustrated with the service. They only had one server for all the outdoor tables and even though he was above average, he was certainly a little overwhelmed. The prices are outrageous for Key West. You can definitely get better food for much less. I ordered the whole snapper and it was very mediocre. The portion size was small and it just wasn't a lot of food for the price. As I stated above, the server was fine and he was trying his best. They were also out of the one beer that I wanted which was a bummer. I just didn't love this place. There are so many places to eat along Duval Street that I wouldn't go back here. It wasn't terrible. I just know that I can find better elsewhere. read more

We were really excited to try bagatelle as our first meal in Key West. I had seen lots of good reviews on social media. After getting in late on New Year's Eve, we made reservations for New Year's Day brunch. The reservation was not necessary. When we arrived at 10am it was not busy at all. Perhaps this is just due to everyone still being asleep after the NYE festivities. We were seated upstairs on the outdoor deck. Service was pretty prompt but there was a dead bug in my water glass. Not the best start to the meal but also pretty understandable when water pitchers are outside. I ordered a mimosa and a coffee with cream and sugar. I was only provided artificial sweeteners and the container they came in was dirty. We booked the restaurant largely based on reviews of the cinnamon roll starter. We were notified that they were out of them. They were also out of buns so all the sandwiches would be on toast. They were also out of egg whites for any of the omelettes. All in all a pretty disappointing lack of items for the first day of the year. I ordered the traditional eggs Benedict and my husband had traditional breakfast. Both were just ok. Everything was a little lukewarm which is again disappointing. I anticipated crispy home potatoes based on other pictures. But these were soggy and overly doused in paprika. The mimosa was good though. I MIGHT try again for dinner if I'm ever in Key West again, but unlikely given the other great places we ate. read more

Had a lovely meal at Bagatelle on my most recent Key West adventure. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and inviting. We opted to sit at the bar and order a couple of martinis to start the night. We also threw in an order of blistered shishito peppers, which came with a hot honey glaze which gave the dish a nice kick. For my entree, I opted for the lobster fettuccine, which was served in a roasted garlic herb sauce and came with cherry tomatoes and spinach. It was very flavorful and although spiny lobster isn't always my favorite, this particular lobster tail was juicy, succulent, and grilled to perfection. I would absolutely come back to Bagatelle the next time I'm in Key West! read more

We arrived with reservations for a part of 6, seated outside near the side of the house. Our waitress lacked personally and didn't seem like she wanted to be at work. The fish special was lacking flavor, fish was very overcooked as well as the vegetable risotto, fish was lukewarm-definitely not fresh out of the sauté pan, maybe partially precooked. We thought the food came out super fast for it to be cooked to order. The lobster was overcooked, pasta lacked Parmesan cheese that would have provided the salt and flavor that the dish needed. Chicken dish was enjoyed, tuna was ok. Only found out that the fish special was $60 when we got the bill, would have sent back for recook as 2 of us ordered and both dishes were overcooked. Worst meal we ate in Key West, it wasn't our first time here. Won't be back unfortunately. read more

Great location off the main strip. The atmosphere is laid back and casual yet the menu is kinda upscale. We started with the ahi tuna appetizer. It was very fresh yet was lacking a bit of flavor since we are used to the Hawaiian version. My wife had the grouper and it may have been the best fish we've had since we have been here. I had the NY strip steak. It was average for the price. Slightly overcooked. More medium than medium rare. We finished with the bananas foster brownie which we were both disappointed with. The prices are fare and service was decent, we sat at the bar since we did not have a reservation. Stick with the fish and you will be fine. read more

It's a gorgeous house with a wraparound porch and it feels like you stepped back into Key West history. I went for breakfast and the food is totally underwhelming.

This place was really swanky. We came here during the day as part of a food walking tour in Key West, Florida. The building is quite large with two stories, front rooms, back rooms, outdoor patio, outdoor wrap around balcony, etc. This is a great place to make a reservation for a group party to celebrate those special occasions. It's also a romantic date night and a fun brunch place with your girlfriends. Beautiful decor throughout the building. We were in an upstairs, back room bar. It was a cozy room with several tall pub tables and a private bar with a beautiful carved wooden bar. We were served a sample of lobster mac-n-cheese. It was amazing!!! I don't generally eat shellfish. I usually find the texture rubbery and the favor unpleasant, but that was far from the case here. The chunks of lobster were hearty and flaky with no discernible seafood flavor. The mac-n-cheese was a great way to highlight the lobster without hiding this star. I'm certain the prices here are double or triple what they would be in other areas of the US. Bring your credit card and save up for the experience. You can also aim for their happy hour times to take advantage of some of the price deals. Tables have starched white linens and fine cutlery and server sets. It's a classy place for those memorable meals with special people in your life. read more

Our experience was wonderful. We were there for a bachelorette and thy gave us an amazing table on the front patio. It was a little warm outside (mid July) but we could hear live music from down that street and that was very cool. The food was spectacular and everyone loved their cocktails. The chef came out to talk to us after the meal and that made it even more special. They brought out a complimentary slice of key lime pie with a sky high meringue and a giant sparkler on top. The bride said it tasted even better than Kermit's, which is crazy because she is always at Kermit's! Our server was jay and he was just delightful. We certainly will be going back and I am delighted about how much our guests enjoyed the meal and their experience. read more
