Had the fritters last night and they were raw inside. Also, I couldn't taste any conch. Stay away from the conch fritters.

Very good place at the far west end, don’t hesitate to take the trio to taste a little bit of everything. It's not very expensive. There aren't too many people. You can sit at small tables

Worst food ever. Conch ceviche was tart, hard.. even the tacos were terrible.. French fries were soggy and oily. Don't waste your money and time!

I tried the lobster roll per the owners recommendation. It was hands down the best sandwich I have eaten in a long time. When he says he makes the best ... He truly makes the best lobster roll ever ! I will be coming back every time I'm in town for one !!!

My husband and I like to try new-to-us foods when we travel. We stumbled upon The Conch Shack during a recent short trip to Key West, and had to try their conch fritters. Widely consumed in the Bahamas and southern Florida, minced conch (shellfish) are traditionally mixed into a seasoned batter made of cornmeal, chopped vegetables (onions, bell peppers, celery, jalapeño peppers), lemon juice, tomato paste, and seasonings (creole seasoning, black pepper). After being formed into bite-sized balls and deep-fried, the fritters are served with a dipping sauce. In the case of this restaurant, it's a tangy key lime aioli dipping sauce. We ordered a 6-piece order "snack" to share ($10, Feb 2024) from the walk-up counter. Staff we're friendly, and the fritters were served hot from the oil and the accompanying beer was cold. The fritters and dipping sauce were both tasty. We ate this at the small outdoor long table, while listening to the sounds (no visuals) of live music from a neighboring establishment. The table is tucked into a side alley; it's not on the main road. A stray rooster wandered nearby. There are no restrooms; indoor seating is not available). Our ratings. Food taste: 5/5. Value: 4/5. Staff: 5/5. Location: 5/5 (on pedestrian-friendly and busy Duval Street). Ambiance/seating: 2/5.
Conch is a big deal down in the keys and I would recommend giving this place a try! This is a tiny little spot over on Duval Street! There are a few seats around the shack and it feels very much like a diner since you can see them prepare your order! The staff here were very friendly! They took my order and chatted with me while it was cooking. After I received my hot a fresh trio, they continued to ask if I needed anything and how it was tasting! The food: I love ceviche, so I wish you got a larger order but it was still tasty! The fried conch was my least favorite, only because of the texture it is chewy and hard to eat. The sauces were delicious with these tho! The conch fitters were tasty but definitely more breading than conch. Overall, if you are looking for a snack or a meal option, come say hello to these friendly people and enjoy some fresh conch!
