This is where the locals eat and love it. You've got to try their shrimp and grits, Morgan salad and strawberry shortcake :-)

I had the blackened Mahi and it was just Ok. Not the best I had that week. We did a take out and I'm really not sure what the service was like. There are many more ocean side restaurants I would choose next time.

We went to have a mothers day dinner and all four of us were disappointed in the quality of our meals. Blackened shrimp had no taste, primavera ditto. The bacon wrapped were OK and the bread and service were good.

This is by far one of the best places in the Keys we have eaten. We went on a Friday night at 7:00 and at 5:30 on Saturday and were seated and served promptly. It looked like this was a place for locals. The food was fresh and very inexpensive. The crab cake was ok but had a lot more... More

All four of us enjoyed our meals very much. Jill, our server/owner, was pleasant and efficient. The crunchy fried shrimp were perfect and the hush puppies were the best I've eaten in a long time.

We love the shrimp shack, we always go there with friends for happy hour and love the oysters. They are usually bigger and better than the high end restaurants, who by the way, do not have them on happy hour. The other apps are good as well, buffalo chicken wings, stuffed mushrooms and cocktails

Went out on a charter fishing trip and caught lots of fish. Captain suggested going here to have them cook up some of my catch. I was glad I went. I had coconut crusted Mahi which I thought was awesome until I had some left overs for breakfast and realized it was doubly awesome. I also had them prepare snapper... More

Our very pregnant waitress gave us friendly tips on the local fish and specialties. We tried conch fritters and a blackened fish special. The key lime pie was excellent. Prices were reasonable, service friendly and food very good. A great place to try a number of times.
