Skipper's Smokehouse

4.5

About this business

If you are ready to try smoked mullet, fried grouper, grilled catfish, or award-winning Gator Black Bean Chili, this is the place to go. Skipper's Smokehouse is a combination of a tropical Key West bar mixed with a lively restaurant with eccentric decorations. Add to that a dash of live nightly music and you will have your taste buds dancing and your toes tapping at the same time. This is always a happening nightspot and is one of the best concert venues around.

The food was nothing to brag about. And it was impossible to see the band from the seats. Hugely disappointed.

Place is run down. Bar smells like shit and puke. In fact if I went into the bar itself before ordering food I would have just not ordered any food despite being starving. Ribs and okra cost me 26 bucks and both tasted like they came out of a frozen bag. Worst ribs I've ever had in my entire life. All said I won't go back.

Most of their seafood is up in my top 10 list. The Calamari is the best and lightest I have ever had. Their raw oysters are always fresh and select size. It has a dive character to it. I love the outdoor music venue. they have top musicians nightly. The Parking sucks. but part of the adventure I guess.

I've been visiting Skippers for nearly 30 years. It's been consistently great in terms of the food, service, and experience. I'm now introducing my kids to Skippers and hope that they'll do the same one day.

Skippers is an awesome place to go to hear live music.....preferably the blues!! I heard Damon Fowler there for the first time many years ago and instantly became a fan. The atmosphere at Skipper's is like being at home in your backyard with friends. Good food, good drinks, good people and great music!
