You don’t need to dine at the fanciest restaurants to get the meal of a lifetime. This is true for the small, open-air fish shack that can be found all the way in Key West. There are no reservations — no lobster dripping with butter, or ginormous king crab legs. But instead, you’ll find clean, fresh cooking, and some of the best fried fish at this historic restaurant in Florida.
This funky driftwood eatery in Key West serves up some of the most delicious fried fish, fritters, and fast food that you can have in the South.
The best part about this open-air seafood shack is that it started just out of a tiny wagon off of Duval and now has turned into one of the best places to grab a cracked conch sandwich in the state.
