If you're in Key West and looking for a place to get out of the heat and humidity, Dante's is a solid option. We went and there was no cover fee to get in, though locals mentioned that during busier seasons or for events, a charge can sometimes apply. My advice would be to arrive when they first open so you can secure a lounger, as it can get pretty packed out. Dante's features a large pool in the center of the area. There's a sailfish water fountain and a waterfall that goes over rocks in the background. While there is a good amount of seating, much of it with shade, getting there early is key to getting a good spot, especially during busier times. It's a good setup for relaxing and staying cool. The food we ordered was good. We tried the Bang Bang Shrimp, the Ceviche, and the Conch Fritters. Our waitress was Lexi, and she was very busy, running drinks to everyone and keeping up with orders throughout our visit. She clearly worked hard to make sure guests had their food and drinks. They had a DJ playing music, and the restrooms, located upstairs, were clean. If the heat and humidity in Key West are getting to you, Dante's provides a comfortable place to spend some time and stay cool. Price per person: $50–100 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Racial profiling. Racist manager. I'm BLACK AND LOVING IT don't suggest for anyone of color. I visited several places in the area so thought this place would be cool but NOOOOOOOO. the bathroom was nasty, the pool was over crowded, the food was as nasty as the bathroom and the customer service was worst than the food and bathroom.

A legendary bar and a very popular spot in Key West. Visited for lunch during the week and the place was packed. It can be hard to find a free chair or lounger especially during busy times but the place is definitely worth visiting. The pool and drinks arefantastic, lots of awesome photo op, and the food there was surprisingly very good too! I had shrimp ceviche which tastedamazing and imo was a perfect seafood snack by the pool. It's an experience and if you've never been it's a must stop while inKey West!

Delicious wings, drinks and a pool; what could be better with the Florida heat. Heather made it all better. We loved the drinks she made and her friendly personality was so refreshing. Key West has a lot of personalities and hers was one weappreciated. Buffalo wings were delicious and just as good warmed up as leftovers at our bed and breakfast. The pool waspacked on Sunday but not very much so on Monday while we were there. We didn't mind the crowd as you should expect that with abar and a pool. Two things that go together well. The food would also make us be returning customers. Thank you, Heather. Havea happy day.
