    Espresso martini and raspberry martini
    Carina L.

    Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting the keys Vibes, food, drinks, service, impeccable Curated menu with limited but great selections, everything we ordered was delicious (ceviche was a favorite!), proving that quality over quantity always You had to enter with a "secret code" that's posted on their Instagram account which added to the quirkiness of the entire experience At 8:00/8:30pm, live jazz music starting playing and that's when the crowd really began to build up. People chatting, singing, dancing, such a great vibe going for a Saturday night

    My friend took me to this cute spot as I was in town visiting her. She's a regular here. The entree way was cute. Like you're entering a bunker and have to talk into the walkie-talkie for them to open the door. Ambiance: cute spot i must say! They were pretty busy as it was a weekend night. They had live music. And the light was dimmed. So a very cute date night or gno spot. Service: was great. My friends ordered a lot of food that night as they are regulars there. Food: food was great! I liked every dish. And the drinks were aweso

    I came here while visiting the keys and it was such a fun change and vibe from the usual casual scene around key largo! I know key lime pie is everything down there so I was blow away by this key lime pie martini!! I could not stop drinking it. It was sooo good. The bar service was okay, nothing too good or bad about it. It was fun and different to need a password to get in. Would go again for more martinis!!

    I absolutely loved this speakeasy. The concept of it being a bunker was soo cool. Before you can go in, you have to give them the passcode through a walkie talkie. They then grant you entrance into the bunker. It's dim lighting inside, it makes it spooky but also fun and even romantic imo. Great spot to grab a few cocktails with friends or even go on a date. The menu was great, we shared the bunker bites which were steak sliders and let me tell you that chimichurri sauce really made the sliders stand out. We also shared the truffle fries that had Parmesan cheese and crispy bacon. You can really taste the truffle in them, they were not shy with it. The cocktails were all exquisite. My favorite was the key lime pie martini....it was perfectly balanced. It was not too sweet, the merengue was sweet but really tied the entire cocktail together. Their espresso martini was also quite delicious. Don't even get me started on their creme brûlée, it was so good. The service was awesome! Our water was being filled every so often and the staff was extremely attentive. Probably one of the best speakeasy's I've been to in a while. If you are in the keys, you have to drop into this crazy cool spot.

    Cheers!

    We had a blast here! I enjoy speakeasies. This one has you give them the password at the walkie-talkie before you are alloed to enter. The password can be found on their IG. The ambiance is Roaring 20s and the Prohibition era. The crowd was anywhere from ages 21 to 60. Everyone was having a great time here. Drinking and dancing and laughing. Speakeasies were often concealed behind unmarked doors, in basements, or disguised as other businesses to avoid detection by law enforcement. Alcohol was illegal during the Prohibition era 1920-1933. The Armory does a great job of recreating a speakeasy. We both ordered their house soecial, the Old Fashioneds to stay on trend. They were well made. We loved the bartender. He puts on a great show at the bar! You need to come here! I can't wait to go back. Parking is on the street and there is also a parking lot in the back. No stairs to climb.

    Man y'all - this spot!!!!! so nice. We did it way more than twice but no lie - we were in the Keys for a month in February & The Armory Speakeasy was new on the scene & we knew we had to try it out! Everything was divine When I say that, this is no exaggeration, I mean everything from the vibe, the service, the drinks, the food, the way that all of that clearly had everybody else in the place feeling even, it was just top to bottom a five star experience no lie! Everything that we tried here was wonderful. We especially love the truffle fries & obviously the charcuterie (don't think a normal charcuterie. This is like a Michelin restaurant, charcuterie, quality, wise and pairing wise no lie) and my husband really loved the lamb kebabs or lamb chops. Also of note, The Lost Love Letter cocktail, super delicious at baseline as far as cocktails go but made even more special by the fact that there is an actual handwritten note pinned to your drink that comes to your table with it for you to discover all on your own. In addition to the awesome vibe indoors and the amazing food, drinks & service, the outdoor sitting area is all phenomenal with so many authentic relics included in the decor. So many good freaking photo ops out there, and I love the dichotomy of the relics with the natural trees that are on the grounds, the start contrast makes you really appreciate the natural beauty located there on the grounds and of course it's all enhanced with twinkle lights, which are always my favorite . We have gone any night from a Wednesday to a Sunday and all were different vibes, degree of busy and all amazing. Definitely try for a night with the live music because that was super fun as well. Genuinely such an amazing place with phenomenal staff, service, food, drinks & ambiance 1 10 out of 10 can't recommend enough!!!!!

    Great spot, the outside makes you question if you are at the right place yes it does say the VFW. Trust me this place is a hidden gem, the ambience and service is top tier! Cocktails and food are great as well!

    The (bunker) entrance.
    Em S.

    They have turned the VFW into a really unique spot. You don't see it from the front facing US1. Park in the back and enter the "bunker" surrounded by sandbags. You wave to call on the walkie talkie and give the password (found daily on IG). They guide you inside. The inside is really low light. Menus are back lit. They are easy to read. The food offerings are tapas style: sliders, hummus, cheese plate, carpaccio. They have wines, beer and well drinks. The well drinks are made with a flair. I watched an old fashioned be smoked inside a glass called by a skull device and the smoke came out the eyes and nose. Service was superb at the bar. The bartenders chatted it up with us. Be prepared that this unique spot is not inexpensive.

    I absolutely love speakeasies and this one just takes the cake. The drinks are amazing if you tell them what you like they definitely pinpoint something good. Service was very good. Prices are as you would expect in the keys. You have to go into their Instagram to find the keyword in order to get in very cute that they're very solid on that end. The inside is very dark and very 20s setting with how they dress how it looks. The menus glow which I think is a cute little touch and they do have sailor hats of different sorts that you can wear. Between my niece and my mom and myself we were really happy to have gone 100% recommend.

    This speakeasy is exactly what I look for. Hidden entry with password great drinks amazing service and good food. The ambiance was also perfect. Can't wait to go back.

    Mari G.

    Beautiful ambiance, attentive service, and a menu that actually delivers. The lounge vibe is relaxing without trying too hard, and every dish came out fresh and flavorful. Perfect spot to unwind, talk, and enjoy good music. Highly recommend.

    Light up menus!  Now they just need to give us readers lol
    Kimberly J.

    You need a passcode! It's on insta. The very best key like pie martini in the world. Like a meringue on top that is toasted? Yum! The music is very loud. Very loud! It's a dark nightclub. Couches and fancy chandeliers. Latin dancing. French fries were awesome. But we were never given napkins or silverware and we were forgotten after awhile. Waited a long time to get our check. The bartender finally came over and checked on us. Fun place! Just slow!

    The tunnel to get in is hot and they make you wait 20-45 minutes. They allow people to skip the line if they "know someone" inside.

    We had a disappointing lunch here…read more We were in the keys specifically to enjoy Florida lobster season which started last week. As we were getting ready to head home, I had read in their ad in the local newspaper that they featured fresh Florida lobster. So I delayed our departure a couple hours just to make sure we stopped here for lunch. The restaurant has an outside bar and patio dining plus inside a/c dining. We chose to sit in the inside. I'd asked the server what Florida lobster dishes they offered and the prices. She said they had two -- lobster bites and a lobster tail. I order the tail with sweet potato fries as my side. When the meal came, I saw that what was delivered was NOT fresh Florida lobster. The manager (?) told me they hadn't pulled the traps yet and didn't have any Florida lobster -- which was strange as it was almost a week into the season and their two ads touted it. Anyhow, he suggested the snapper instead and I chose the coconut yellowtail sandwich from their specials. This was barely edible -- over fried, over cooked, and dried out. I took only a couple bites and coins t even eat the rest. Meanwhile, my husband had ordered the cracked conch appetizer. We've had this all over Florida (he's a native) and in the Carribean. This version was quite different. It had large square pieces of conch in a heavy fried batter. I would not recommend this dish, either.

We were seated immediately, and there was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating overlooking a beautiful channel with boats constantly coming and going. I ordered the mahi mahi sandwich with sweet potato fries, served on a coconut bun, and it was quite possibly one of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten. Everything came out hot, fresh, and surprisingly fast. You could tell the food was made to order. The staff was genuinely friendly and never made us feel rushed, which made it easy to sit back and enjoy the view. The outdoor seating was fantastic and added so much to the experience. The restaurant is a little tucked away and can be easy to miss, but don't let that stop you--it is absolutely worth finding. We spent about $54 for two people, and considering the quality of the food, generous portions, service, and atmosphere, it was worth every penny. If you're in Key Largo looking for a great meal with a waterfront view, put Skippers Dockside on your list. We'll definitely be back.
