Conch Republic Seafood Company

Great food! Great location! Great service! Not sure how they managed to get our whole tables food out so quickly but wow it was much faster than expected. The server was very nice and attentive. They did not have any drawing utensils for the kids but the kids were amazed by the large fish tank anyways so not a huge deal. We did eventually find a pen so I guess that was fine too. The food was amazing, kids had burgers, and adults had Veggie Pasta and Catch of The Day (Swordfish). Pasta was great, huge fans of mushrooms. The swordfish was great, seemed fresh, the rice and veggies were cooked perfectly but the home made sauce the catch of the day came with was amazing and went well with everything. Would definitely go again and very much recommend it to all other families passing through.

We made our way down to Key West and didn't know where to go. The first restaurant we saw was this, and we decided to go in. I was skeptical at first cause it is "open," but the fans were pumping, and it didn't feel muggy. Our waitress, Sara, was phenomenal. So sweet and gave us great recommendations on things to do in the area. We ordered the conch fritters and the peel & eat shrimp for the table. Both delicious. I got the St. Kitts pasta as my entree which was also good (not pictured was too hungry). The rest of the table got fried shrimp, a chicken sandwich, and a fish sandwich. All greatly enjoyed. For dessert, we got three items. The table loved the key lime and the chocolate cake. I only tried the strawberry tempura, which was like nothing I have had before, and now I dream of them. If we return, many items looked good, and I must try them!

Get the snapper you won’t regret it. It was fresh caught that morning, and I didn’t see a single table around me who didn’t have at least half of their party order it. I will say the bathrooms were very unclean to the point that you didn’t want to use them I guess it comes with the environment sometimes! Still recommend the restaurant!

The seafood was amazing and fresh the staff was wonderful quick and polite. Cannot wait to dine there again( until the next visit to Key West). And to top it off its an open seaside restaurant and the ocean breeze in the evening just helps the atmosphere 👌.

This was our first time there and it truly was a nice place. It was really busy but it was a great atmosphere. You can watch the sun set as the boats come in as well as buy souvenirs and hot sauce from the gift shop on your way out. Also, outside behind the restaurant you can pay for fish and feed the big snapper under the dock! It's quite pricey but what isn't in Key West.

Great place for fresh seafood and local flavor. This place seems to draw a nice mix of tourists and locals due to the quality of the food. We met some locals that recommended it as it was a 'go to' spot for them. Their slogan, 'to find fresher seafood, you have to catch it' is apparently accurate. Service was also friendly and speedy despite the very busy Friday night crowd.
We can't wait to come back here.

LUNCH on Wednesday:
The breeze off the water kept the outdoor patio area very comfortable and inviting. Tyler delivered outstanding hospitality and plate recommendations. We enjoyed conch chowder and a smoked fish dip. Both perfect for a light lunch ahead of renting an electric car to tour the island for a few hours.
DINNER on Thursday:
We sat dockside under the roof of the open air dining area. 95 degrees in the sun but again breezes off the water and the roof shade made all the difference.
Michael continued the company’s high standard of easy dining and friendly conversation. He suggested the perfect recommendations off the menu. My wife had another bowl of conch chowder, I opted for the lobster bisque. My bisque had a custard/flan quality which I love -the sign of a great lobster bisque, at least to me.
We both had salads, the perfect dishes to wrap up our visit to Key West.

Quick and friendly service in this nice semi-outdoor restaurant! Tried the conch fritters, bacon burger, fish and chips burger, fish with good veggies and bacon wrapped shrimp dish. Everything was yummy!

Toured the town and aquarium while there. We were given coupons to eat here! It was phenomenal! We want to go back sometime! This place for food will be on our minds until the next time we come back! Well worth family having a dinner here!

This was the best restaurant we ate at in Key West.
Wished we'd discover this place sooner on our trip. We came here on our last day of our trip and loved it. Seafood is so fresh and we enjoyed everything we ordered. The drinks were also delicious. Very cool to get to watch all the boats come into the pier while we ate. Would definitely be back if we're in Key West.

Walking around and decided to stop in on a busy afternoon. Wife and I sat at the bar and were promptly served by a couple of great bar tenders. Ordered a few drinks and a pound of their red shrimp 🦐. Drinks were great and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. The side of butter, cocktail sauce and some horseradish were delicious.

A great place to grab a bite to eat in Key West. The food was amazing and the staff was extremely friendly and efficient. Highly recommend!

A local hidden gem that the locals eat at. Service was a little slow at first, but the food was pretty good and the views are perfect. Ask for the ruby red shrimp - they're amazing.

If you're visiting Key West and love fresh seafood, stop by the Conch Republic. Because the food was exceptionally delicious, we ate here twice. The first time I ordered the swordfish (Local Snapper Filet) with garlic chimichurri and the St. Kitt's Pasta on the second visit. All of the food is served hot and fresh, and the customer service is amazing!

I had several delicious dishes. Started with the Crab Stuffed Mushrooms. They were quite tasty. Next, I had Raw Oysters on the half shell. They were very fresh and were nice sized and delicious. My entrée was the Seared Scallops on a bed of Risotto with a cream sauce. The scallops were cooked perfectly. My drink was the Almond Joy Martini. It did taste like an Almond Joy.
Definitely will be returning for another delicious meal.

The service was great. Keegan was on top of everything. Snapper was excellent. So good you could ate it withoutthe sauce, the chimichurri sauce made it incredible. Vegs where real good. My wife had the tuna, got it medium to medium rare was awsome, slaw was real tasty on it, sweet mash potatoes where delicious. Conch soup was good. Conch fritters where real good, the dipping sauce was average got the marmalade extra was average also. Dinner and appetizer where filling. Going try Key lime pie when we get home later.

Had the best experience here. Excellent food. Our server Jerry was literally the best most thorough waiter ever. Yellowfin was great as were the vegetables. Kids liked to see the fish in the aquarium. Only thing I personally didn’t care for was the gratuity already added into the bill and it was 18%. Jerry deserved it for sure but it’s a peeve of mine when restaurants automatically put it in. I’m a great tipper but putting it on someone’s bill feels like forced tipping. But I’m sure others don’t tip well and that’s why it is on there.a little pricey though. For 6 of us (4 adults and 2 kids) our bill was around $300. Though it was great probably a bit too high of a price point for a family. Even in Key West.

When key west then conch republic seafood.
Super fine, fresh shrimps on ice. Or very fresh oysters. Super cool bar and fine drinks. Instead of waiting a long time, just sit down at the bar and eat there. Then you don't have to wait 30 minutes to get a seat.

MUST TRY!!!

This place was our first stop as we got to KW and we felt lucky to find it.

One of the best seafood places we have tried so far.

Nikole, thank you so much for your great service and wish you best with your new chapter in Key West. 🙌🏼

After getting off the Key West Express, we were starving for some good lunch.

We stopped here and had a fantastic welcome to Key West. We were able to get seating next to the pier.

The staff was super friendly and accommodating, and the food was good.

I recommend the Bloody Mary. It was great and came with many little accoutrements to nibble on.

We started off with conch fritters and they were cooked perfectly. Loved the taste too!

I had the local fresh catch sandwich, and got it grilled. It was excellent.

A beautiful "welcome to Key West" if there ever was one.
