This was a fun place to eat even if the food had been “ok”…However, the food was AMAZING! We have Celiac Gluten free family members and they were safe here. Will it miss a chance to go back anytime we visit! PS, we thought “the best key lime pie” was marketing, but it really is the BEST.

Stephanie and her staff are absolutely amazing! We had a wedding at Dream Bay and they catered 4 different events for us! I cannot say how amazing they are! The food was out of this world! They know how to transition from a relaxed atmosphere to a high class event! Each member of their staff was friendly as well as concerned about taking care of you! They were very specific to cater to our gluten free guests, which made me feel so appreciative!! I hope that if you go to the keys, you consider using them for catering or visit their location!! They are just amazing people!!!

The sad gluten free menu was a real disappointment. Poor descriptions of the food and no prices. The gf potato skins were nothing more than a baked potato with cheese and bacon served with dried out chives and diced tomatoes. $12.95
The gf French onion soup was good. $6.99 The conch chowder a rendition of tomato soup with presumably conch. $9.99
The server lacked any enthusiasm. The garden dining was delightful.

Our waiter Aaron was very polite and helpful. Chef Floyd came out to visit us personally twice during dinner and was super friendly. He is very talented! After a couple years of having a house in the keys, this red tail snapper platter is my favorite meal of anywhere! I have a gluten and dairy allergy, and I can safely eat it baked. The spices are delicious! The view is great too. And they have live music! If you are a resident, you can join the Turtle Club for $25 and you get 15% off every visit plus 20 or 25% on Thursdays.
It’s also dog friendly.
We highly recommend! -Lauren and Andy.

Our dinner here was excellent. I was easily able to order a gluten free entre and appetizer. The fish menu on the back was the favorite around the table. Mostly ordered blackened mahi. I had the churrassco steak salad and it had so much flavor, was loaded with veggies other than plain lettuce and the steak was cooked perfectly medium. Our server was attentive without interrupting and delivered everything we ordered quickly and expertly.
Of everything we ate the chicken sandwich was the food item we would not recommend. It was tough and lacked any real flavor.
If we have the chance we will come back to this restaurant!
Marked gluten-free options on the menu ensure a safe and enjoyable dining experience for those with dietary restrictions. The relaxed atmosphere on the elevated deck, overlooking the marina with boats drifting by, creates a serene setting to savor meals thoughtfully prepared to accommodate gluten-free needs. Friendly staff and a large tiki hut bar enhance the welcoming vibe, making it an ideal spot to unwind while enjoying live outdoor music and the gentle tradewind breeze.

We were in town in May, for a wedding and wanted to go to lunch close to our hotel. So, we decided to go to Skipper’s Dockside. Plus, it was a quick walk from our hotel. Wow, it was so much fun! What a great place to eat with a relaxed atmosphere! Or you can sit on the deck and watch boats go by in the marina. While you listen to live entertainment!
All the staff were friendly and went out of their way to handle my celiac and soy allergy. I was able to speak to Chef Michael Ashley who made my meal. So, for lunch, my husband and I both got the Blackened Mahi sandwich. But they substituted the bread for quinoa and vegetables. The dish was delicious! Can I tell you we came back the next night? Yes, we had to try the Frozen Rum Runners. And I cannot forget the best chocolate martinis. We got a great meal, excellent service at a reasonable price. If you are looking for a place to chill and relax, go to Skipper’s! We will be back!

Nice restaurant with a lovely outdoor. Great service, the staff was very knowledgeable of the celiac disease. The hobo shrimp is very tasty and comes in large proportion.

I had the tuna poki bowl (GF) and hubby got eggs Benedict. Mine was so amazing I'd get it over and over again!!!! Hubby said seafood cake thing under his egg wasn't that great but everything else was excellent.
Great service and fabulous views. We'd go back to try other dishes.
Server was very knowledgeable about gluten free.
