We had to visit Conch Heaven before leaving Miami as it was highly recommended by the locals in Miami as the best Conch joint in Miami. After tasting 2 dishes, Conch Salad and Scorched Conch, I highly recommend this spot! We were reluctant to trying the Scorched conch, but, a local paid $20 for us to try it because he knew we would like it. It was absolutely delicious. The conch salad was just like they make in Bahamas, fresh and prepared to ordee. The people (staff and natives) were so down to earth. We will definitely be visiting again. read more

I go back and forth with my cousin anout conch heaven all the time he loves the food but doesn't love the prices which i understand a d i don't. You simply have to pay for quality food bottom line and here at conch heaven the food is top notch!!! I've been coming here since 2012 and i haven't had one bad bad meal nor bad experience and thats a rare thing to capture in someone's mind. The fried shrimp is butterflied and fried till golden smh straight fire. Fried conch is like butter when you bite it not like other spots whose fried conch is tougher than leather not here a toothless man can eat this conch here . I've had a piece of the conch burger and that was also good. You can come here and find local celebrities sneaking in the back door to grab some good cooking without being harrassed by fans. I've seen plenty doing so. Don't believe the hype of other new and upcoming spots Conch Heaven is the real deal and here to stay. Must try!! read more

Now EVERY time I visit my hometown I MAKE SURE I stop by Conch Heaven to grab some stew fish and grits for the road. My commute back to Jax is around 5 solid hours. I know it's weird that i go to this place for the fish and not the conch but I'm not a fan of their conch. It's on the chewie side. But this stew fish n grits with Johnnie cake is my fav!!!. Sitting and eating here wouldn't be my recommendations, it's what they would a "Hole in the wall". But please don't let that steer you away. A lot of great food comes out of "Hole in the wall" place, and YES that IS A FACT. I'm Bahamian so food like this reminds me of home. Try a slice of Johnny Cake. #SAVORY read more

The oxtails with peas and rice is absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back for some more good eats!

Walked in and said, "fryers are broken", after taking someone else's order and were obviously just being lazy.

Clean and great customer service! I walked in at 1:55 and no one was waiting to order. The only other person in the place for his order moments after I walked in! #winning Now there are five customers who came after I arrived. We are socially distancing and everyone is wearing a mask. The counter is clean, seats are clean, sanitizer available and paper menus with foot operated trash receptacle. #theygetit #miamidadediningduringpandemic. I will review the food separately. read more

Conch Heaven - Inside Counter-- - Caribbean Near Me - Miami, Florida

10/10, good customer service and very friendly. The food was served fresh. I would recommend to anyone if your a seafood eater.

I have only been to this restaurant twice and both times I was disappointed. Decor: I don't really pay much attention to decor because I never intend on eating in at these types of restaurants. In the order there isn't much seating but they do have a larger sitting area around the corner. Food: My favorite thing here is the festival. Everything else was a disappointed. They put sugar in almost every dish. I am not one of those black people that's into all that sugar in my food. I could taste sugar in the rice. I could taste sugar in the mac and cheese. Sugar in the oxtails. If you're getting some fried, that would probably be your best bet as I would hope that it doesn't have sugar in it. While the festival is delicious, it isn't enough to make me come back to this place unless I am in the area. Staff: It is a hit or miss with them. Some days they want to be there and some days they don't. But that's food service in general. read more

Excellent food and service! Prices are very reasonable. I wanted food with flavor and Conch Heaven was it. I give Conch Heaven 5 out of 5.

As a Bahamian who's been away from the Bahamas for over 11 years, I always try new Bahamians restaurants. Needless to say I was very disappointed with not only the service but the food as well. I ordered the fried chicken but they didn't have dark meat so I switched my order to the jerk chicken. The chicken wasn't bad but everything else was. I got jerk chicken w 3 sides. Mac, peas n rice and potato salad. The rice was a bit raw and hard. it needed to be steamed for at least 10 more minutes. That or it was just old microwaved rice. The cold potato salad just had huge chunks of potatoes and the eggs were minced. It was flavorless so I added some seasoning to it (thank God I took my food to go). The Mac was flavorless and looked old. The chicken was spicy and well seasoned. Now on to the attitude on that lady!! I walked in and greeted the people that was there. She didn't answer (cool). I sat there as she kept talking and to other customers who had their food already. I was completely ignored and just played it off by reading the menu. I had questions about the jerk chicken since they didn't have my original order (fried chicken but hey had no dark meat). I wanted to know if the chicken was cut up in pieces (like Jamaican restaurants) because I have a toddler (didn't want him choking on tiny pieces of bone). She completely ignored me and told the cook I changed my order to the jerk since they didn't have my initial order. The service was fast (about 10 mins) but that's more because it seems like they microwaved food and put it in the plate. As I was leaving, a lady walked in with her daughter for an order she did over the phone. The way the waitress (lady with locs) greeted her, you'd think I did something to offend her when I walked in. The service was night and day. I have some of the potato salad left over and it smells rancid! Mind, I made this order LAST NIGHT 7pm!! Not even 12 hrs ago!! If it went bad that fast, imagine how long ago it was made since it was refrigerated. Thank God it was only like 11 bucks. I wanted to order more food but her service turned me off so bad I only bought 1 plate (I should've just walked out). 2 stars are for how quick the "service" of microwaved food was and for the edible but salty chicken. read more

The fried grouper nuggets were amazing and the conch salad! Great customer service!!!

American workers don't know the different between thigh and breast snack. Drove all the way from Pembroke Pines for the wrong order. Despite this experience that happens often, this is one of the best bahamian restaurants in south Florida, really enjoy their lobster salad with no mayo, because it's made like a conch salad. The crack conch is good and so is the chicken in the bag, the baked Mac could use some onions and sweet pepper to be better but others that I've eaten with there enjoy it more than I do, peas and rice is a little oily sometimes but good none the less. Chicken snack never disappoints unless they give me white meat when I ordered dark. read more

Hello! On 3/23/24 Saturday after 80m I ordered fried grouper & fries& the fries were half burnt hard & greasy, the fish was greasy falling apart with no seasoning but salt, the young girl who serviced my takeout was albino with no customer service experience, I arrived home noticed it wasn't worth the effort to even eat the fish & fries. My with went out side thru it in the garbage can because if it's not suitable for human consumption it's not good enough for dogs or cats, my family & relatives visit conch heaven weekly spending about $4-500.00 wkly & when that happened to me having that embarrassing moment at conch heaven thinking to myself, I feel better when I arrive home to begin eating, but that all changed the moment I opened the takeout grouper & fries dinner realizing the unexpected bad food I was served from Conch Heaven is just fit for a dog! By the way the grouper & fries dinner was $26 w $8 tip, I will never ever go to that awful restaurant conch heaven again unless my life depended on it, what a waste of time, money! What a waste of F&%king time & F%#king money, SHAME ON ME FOR EVEN GOING THERE! read more

My family and I stopped by today to get some Bahamian food the food was great ! But the service sucked ! The lady taking orders was very rude and rushed us to order and had a very bad attitude.. this place seemed to be pretty busy for the hour we were there so if she had more help in the front maybe her attitude would have been better ! 3 stars bc due to being rushed and having a bad attitude read more

So where do I start, first let's talk about the Crack conch. The Crack conch was so delicious and the rice and peas was phenomenal. Now on to the conch salad. The conch salad taste amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

I've been a happy customer of this business for years until Wednesday. I purchased three dinners, 3 drinks and 3 salads totaling approximately $150 for my children and myself. To be specific the fried shrimp was salty, the fried conch and the peas and rice were tasteless and the conch salad was more tomato than anything. The best thing about the meal was the Goombay Punch. I called to inform management of the issue and was informed that I need to drive 32 miles one way back to the restaurant to prove my claim. I advised them of the distance and was told basically too bad. The Goombay Punch was good though. I cannot say anything bad about the young lady who served me. STAR was awesome. read more

Conch Heaven - This was the best thing from my meal. - Caribbean Near Me - Miami, Florida

We went to conch heaven on a Friday and they had live Bahamian band playing. The opening is in the back parking lot area. It is very confusing to go inside the restaurant. When you eating I side the restaurant their is and area for take out and an area to eat in. We sat down the place is very small so when it is pack it is pack. The atmosphere was okay it needs more pictures paintings on the wall. Now to the most important part the food. We has the conch fritter, oxtail crack conch aka fried conch, peas and rice, white rice, bake Macaroni and cheese and Johnny cake. The conch fritter did not have enough conch inside so I was a little disappointed. The Johnny cake, crack conch, ox tail and macaroni and cheese was good. They did have the goombay punch and kalik which is the beer of the Bahamas. The restaurant need some updates in the decor and replace the seating in the restaurant to bring it in the 2000's. read more

The BEST cracked conch I have ever had and I travel over an hour to get my craving on the regular.

My 2nd time coming here before 10 and them saying their kitchen is closed it closes at 9. If you are not gonna serve someone until 10 then change your time to 8:30p read more

Omg conch salad was so disgusting. I'm mad I drove from Lauderhill to Miami for this bs. The conch taste like ocean water literally. The taste was so bad I'm pissed. I even tried to add seasonings at home and still bad. There was so many vegetables in the conch salad it didn't make any sense. They don't even make it in front of you , it was brought out from the back. read more

Star did a great job serving us today. The food was great quality and delicious! We ordered oxtails, two seafood combos, grilled conch and steamed conch. The amount of food is plentiful. We will return again. read more

Sour conch, twice same visit and the server was epic with the response of it's all the same batch ‍

This place could not be In a better location than in front of Miami Dade North Campus. Their conch salad is made with lime and other citrus (not water down!) fresh peppers, onions and tomatoes! their fritters are the bomb, golden on the outside and soft in the center and what many of them lack here in Miami that this heavenly place does not, CONCH! LOTS OF CONCH! Their staff is friendly, kind and the service Swift. They have a take out location in plantation and hopefully more to come. This place is family owned and from time to time you will see the patriarch of the family, or as many called hi, "POPS" welcoming you with a smile. Visit and support your locals and you will come out winning. read more

So when I'm in Miami 3 things are a must and conch is at the top of the list. I've eaten at conch heaven a few times but never wrote a review, so here we go. We had conch salad of course and fried conch because why not. Both were prepared well, not too chewy and seasoned well. The conch salad can always use more conch because there's no such thing as too much but the amount given was descent...good conch to tomato ratio and there was no need to add salt or hot sauce. The cracked or fried conch was fried well and the provided sauce was a plus. A little lime squeeze and you'll be in conch heaven. read more

Amazing Bahamian food. The best Bahamian restaurant in the east coast. Drove from Tennessee to buy

Conch Heaven? No. Conch Hell should be the name. | s e r v i c e | We walked in about 1030 and the young girl did not look thrilled to see us. I understand that they close at 11 and I'm sure she had a long day, but that's not a way to greet a paying customer. She looked annoyed and didn't even say hi. Told us that everything is on the menu is NOT available, which was understandable since it was the end of the day. | f a c i l i t y | How is this place still open?? We ordered and paid for our food. As we were waiting for our food to be cooked, we saw a couple of small roaches running from behind the drink machine. Seriously? That's so gross. | f o o d | Okay, look.. I know what you guys are thinking.. "I wouldn't eat the food after seeing the roach" I totally agree, but after hearing so much good things about conch.. I really wanted to try it. I was leaving Miami in the next hour and there wasn't another place open at the time! ): And crazy thing is, their food is actually good! Must be because of the extra protein from the roach poop. Lol. I'm joking. [ + ] Crack Conch: This is deep fried conch. Really good. It comes with 3 sides. I got mac and cheese, fries and cole slaw. Their sides were pretty good. Esp the cole slaw! [ + ] Curry chicken: This is a yellow curry base. Also pretty good. Comes with three sides. We got rice, potato salad and fries. The curry itself was seasoned good. They were generous with the chicken. [ + ] Conch Salad: This is like a fish ceviche. Pretty darn good. There were chunks of conch. My only complaint is that I wish it was served with some tortilla chips or something. It would've added some saltiness and crunch to the dish. All in all, the food is actually pretty good. It's unfortunate that the service sucks and the facility is a mess. I hope they decide to improve things to better their restaurant. They can actually be successful if they put some effort and change things up. read more

This is my buddy favorite go to spot after work on Friday's. So I agreed to meet him there. It's a very familiar place, where most of the times the waitress knows you. The food is decent, nothing to get your panties/boxers in a bunch. I've been here several times and I must say the conch salad is the signature dish but again that's hit or miss at times. So if your in the area and want a True Bahamian Style Conch Salad this is your spot. Lastly a decor upgrade is way over due, but nevertheless I'll continue to come for the conch salad. read more

Visited from out of town because we wanted to try Conch. From California and it was worth the trip to the area for the food. Waiters were very nice and even the cook who I think may be the owner, I'm not sure but he was very cool too. Love the hospitality in the place on top of the food being REALLY good. My mom had the oxtail dinner, I had the fish dinner and my partner had conch salad and fried conch which I got to try. Will definitely come back to this place when I visit again. read more

I give this place 5 Stars because honestly I cannot find anything bad about this place. The first time I went in about a week ago I ordered the Conch burger and conch salad. The conch on the burger was super tender and flavorful. The conch salad was one of the best my wife say she had and this lady loves Conch. My second visit I took the wife and we sat in. The place is not fancy which is to be expected for a neighborhood dive. Despite the place is adequate very clean and comfortable. My wife was going for the conch salad again but wanted something warm. She wanted to try the grilled Conch never having it and after it came recommended highly by the server she went for it. The server was so correct it the conch was super tender and the broth and veggies were very flavorful. The broth was amazing and took the dish over the top. I ordered the cracked conch which was lightly fried tender and very well seasoned. The food came out in a reasonable time and our server was very knowledgeable and attentive. Will definitely be going back in the near future. read more

Great restaurant. The nicest people and best conch I've had in a long time I highly recommend giving them a try you won't regret it.

I hate to say this, but my food was a disappointment. Mainly because the food tasted old like they saved it from the day or a few days before, not the conch though. The mac and cheese looked old I could not eat it. The 3 stars are for the conch. Will I order from here again maybe for conch only. read more

Food was fantastic!!! I'm from Miami but live in Virginia. Whenever I go home to visit I will stop in.

Prices are okay for seafood service from a young man in college and he was a great guy food well damm it's gone lol

If you are new, after you park in the back parking lot, look for the furthest door on the left side. That is where you enter the restaurant to dine in. There is a separate room for people to wait if you just wanted to order take out food. Overall, good service, friendly locals, and good food. Daily lunch specials include a side item. When you walk in the restaurant, pick any table and seat yourself. Good place for large table parties as well. Server will come and greet you to take your order. After ordering, it would be a good idea to ask for more napkins and more lemon or lime. If you have a large party, they'll give you a large pitcher of water. Conch was what my family was craving, especially my Mom. LOL. Conch fritters could be better...certain family members mentioned it was lacking the natural conch juice flavor. True...also, there were only small bits of conch within. I preferred the crack conch. The battered conch pieces were more enjoyable. This item is kid friendly as well. Fried crabs were good. There were 2 crabs per plate order. Grouper fingers were delicious! Loved the fresh fish within. Must try this one again if ever in town. Side of french fries were good too. The other two sides were peas n' rice and potato salad. Rice was plain with no flavor. Potato salad was good to fill you up. Fried shrimp was fine. They were topped above head lettuce salad. So, that was the only veggie besides all the other deep fried goodies. Conch salad is a must here! Love the generous amounts of chopped conch, tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, and love the combined flavor with the citrus juices. read more

You have Cuban, Haitian and Jamaican restaurants that flood the South Florida market, however there are not too many Bahamian restaurants in South FL. Here we introduce Conch Heaven (formerly known as Goldie's) which has amazing fried seafood. This restaurant has plenty of indoor seating and is located directly across Miami Dade's community college. Upon entering you will notice two doors, one for access to the dining room and the other which is a bar area. You must go to the bar area to order your food. I must admit that the bar area is small but there is a TV so that you can watch popular sport events. I ordered cracked (fried) conch and cracked (fried) lobster. I also had conch fritters with potato salad, mac n cheese and goombay soda (a Bahamian soft drink). The conch here is fresh and is the real deal. Tender and not chewy. The highlight for me though was the cracked lobster, never have I had such flavorful and crispy lobster, I also loved the potato salad which had red pepper to give it a little kick. This is a must try if your into Carribean foods! read more
