Fried Conch Anyone?

So, on the drive down to Key West, we decided to stop at a little seafood shack of sorts off of US 1 in Marathon. The place was called Keys Fisheries, and their menu literally took up an entire wall next to the order menu. Since I had never tried conch before, I decided it was the sandwich for me. When you order you have to give your favorite celebrity's name, which is kind of cute, but the food is the real star.

My sandwich was fabulous. The conch was chewy, and the breading was crunchy and flavorful. The cole slaw was fresh, and it wasn't too sour or creamy. My sister got fried hogfish, and she said it was delicious. My mom's lobster salad wrap looked amazing. Mom dad got a chicken salad, but we won't talk about that. This place is definitely recommended, especially since you get to sit on a porch overlooking the marina.
