About the restaurant

Simple. Good. Food.

From humble beginnings over 20 years ago, Seven Fish has earned its place as a Key West Classic.

Serving the freshest local fish in a casual, contemporary bistro setting, it is the perfect finish to your Key West day.

Unpretentious dishes, with a commitment to only the finest ingredients, and made from scratch every day, it is the meal you don’t want to end.

Try our house specialty, Thai Curry Snapper, or any of our fresh fish dishes, or maybe the Banana Chicken or even the locals’ favorite, 7 Fish Meatloaf. There is something for everyone, lovingly prepared to exceed your expectations, including our specialty drinks and inspiring wine menu. Be sure to save room for one of our home made, classic desserts.

You will love our beautiful new building, enjoy our warm, friendly staff and come back again and again for the remarkable food.

We sat at the bar with friends, Eric is an outstanding bartender. He made great recommendations on food as well as making great drinks. Tuna poke appetizer special was super fresh and scallop entree was delicious. This was our first time dining here, it definitely won’t be our last.

About the restaurant

A visit to our house is a unique way to relax and enjoy life's simple pleasures as well as our treasures from the sea. The word Bagatelle comes from the French and means "a trifle or a little nothing", often referring to a light, fun, yet not too serious spring time romance. The French brought their history of fine cuisine and their love of wine to the Caribbean Islands. It is in this tradition that we have combined our French heritage, southern hospitality and the indigenous tastes of the Florida Keys into the meals we prepare today. Our chefs blend the best of our locally caught fresh seafood, fresh produce and delicious tropical fruits for our tropical seafood dishes.
