Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

So we finished a long day at Ft Zachary and the family wanted some quick/fresh seafood for dinner. I had done a quick search online and settled on this for dinner. What a great choice as the crew quickly found things they liked and enjoyed...dinner outside on a beautiful night.More

Our favorite place on Duvall Street, we get conch trio from here every time we are in Key West. The fritters are the best but we also enjoy the cracked and the ceviche. Their dipping sauces are excellent. And you can’t beat the friendly service.

Yummy casual fare right on Duvall. Seafood is excellent. Taquenos are amazing. Great “dive” spot for your next visit to Key West

Best Conch fritters in Key West!! I stop by every time I come to the island. Cool spot right next to Hogs Breath Saloon. Definitely worth a try!

We got off Virgin’s Scarlet Lady and proceeded to Duval Street to look for a lobster roll. My wife is from CT and yearns for a GOOD all lobsters-all butte roll in a toasted split top roll. We thought about a couple shacks that had...great press, but the street side convenience of the Conch Shack and it’s simple rustic “food truck” appearance sold us. After ensuring that the Lobsta Roll would be fixed with butte, we ordered one. It came on a grilled split roll with plenty of chunky lobsta and a bed of shredded lettuce. The Roll was dripping in butter and the fries were outstanding. We ate on a small bar that was in the parking lot of Hog’s Breath Saloon and caught the sounds of their local musician for free. The roll was good, but the lettuce made it a questionable tweak. Purists just want butte and lobsta. Give it a try…several regulars walked up and the owner knew exactly what they wanted. Gotta love that kind of personal service.More

The Conch Shack is an absolute hidden gem. The freshest, best texture, and tastiest Conch Fritters to be found anywhere. The shrimp and fish fillet on the sampler platter were incredible as well. Highly recommended!

I don't know how they did it but this place has the best chicken tenders we'ver ever had! I mean, it's freakin' breaded chicken but DAMN, Son, these were off the charts! The burger was "ok" but if you're in the need for something to...hit the spot, these chicken tenders were out of this world. Perhaps one of the best meals we had lol.More

A great place to grab a bite to eat and not empty your wallet. The food was tasty and very reasonably priced compared to everywhere else we ate at in Key West.

It was very good food! My husband and I intended to get conch fritters but the lady who took our order suggested the basket to share. It had conch three ways. Cracked Conch, Conch Fritters, and Conch Ceviche. It also came with fries. All of...the conch was well prepared and tasted delicious. They are located on Duval St. and are literally a little shack with bar type seating. Staff was very friendly.More

This place was recommended by our hotel when we visited Key West. The food was amazing. The only problem was parking. There should be better parking for those waiting to pick up food. Overall, the Conch Fritters is a must to try!

My wife was dying for a fresh conch salad. This place had one advertised and had received good reviews. We went there but the salad had virtually no conch in it and it was minced so small you could barely taste it. I ordered a...lobster sandwich for $22 dollars It too was very disappointing. The roll was very dry, maybe old? The actual salad was not very good at all. I love lobster sandwiches and have eaten them many times but this was the worse one I have every had. If it had been good I would not have been upset about the price.More

This hamburger was handmade, and the french fries were hand cut. We took him to a picnic area and had a great time. While we were there, we saw the conch. Fritters, coming out. I’m going back for that. Great experience on Duval Street.

My wife read that this was the best cracked conch anywhere. It was fried rubber. That means it wasn't cracked. We were both extremely offend that anyone could call this good. If you have never had cracked conch just go somewhere else to taste the...awesome conchMore

Our Lobster Rolls are traditional New England style, which means the lobster is cold and it is placed in a warm butter toasted top split bun.
