DJ's Clam Shack is a famous place selling its well known lobster roll. DJ's Clam Shack are located in various locations, most notably in New York but it also has locations in Florida. Most people come here for the lobster roll. The bread used for the lobster roll was said to be toasted perfectly and goes really well with the lobster.
As we were visiting Key West, we went to DJ's Clam Shack located on the South Side of Key West. We got there around noon and there weren't too many people. We ordered 2 lobsters rolls and a conch fritter. The lobster roll itself was $22, which was quite pricy.

After about 5 minutes, the lobster rolls were delivered to us. It was quite fast. By looking at the lobster roll, we could see that the lobster used here wasn't the big ones. Also, it only used the meat from lobster claws and no tail meat. As we grabbed the first bite, we just found out that the lobster meat was cold. We thought it was supposed to be boiled and warm. So it was more like lobster salad. It was a bit disappointing because the lobster meat could have been there for a long time and not necessarily fresh. The bread had garlic taste but we wouldn't say it was the best bread used ever.
Overall, the lobster rolls at DJ's Clam Shack was okay but it did not meet our expectation. We were expecting to see better lobster to be used but we guessed that the cost might be even higher. It is probably worth a try if you have never been here before, but we will probably not go again for a long time.
