Going the 23rd - 30th

I've heard atlantis on site restaurants are arm and a leg, so I dont want mid food if im paying disney prices.

Additionally, some good off site spots for stone crab claws and seafood would be appreciated.

My wife and I used to walk across the bridge separating Paradise Island from the main island to eat conch salad at the base of the bridge on the mainland side. It’s made as you watch at some of the little shacks there. It’s great for lunch.

I'll start by saying I don't have much in the way of specific recs.
I love conch and the Bahamanians do it better than anyone else imo.
Theres a shack on Junkanoo beach that has great crack conch, but all the spots seem to do that well.
I had amazing grilled conch somewhere on Nassau in the 90's when I took off on a moped but I haven't been able to find it since.
You could probably find someone that stews it, or curries it, etc.
Sorry I can't help with specific spots, but they all seem to know how to cook conch well, and there's not a whole lot of places in the world you're going to get conch fresh, so imo the Bahamas is the place to get your fill of it if you enjoy it.

I’ve had to go to Nassau for business ~10 times.

My go-to for business dinners there is The Graycliff (Link)

As “fancy” as Nassau gets, huge wine cellar, it’s fairly expensive but I’ve never had a bad meal or time there.

It’s uphill (south) a bit from the waterfront in Nassau, away from the hoi polloi.

It's been a while but taxis from Atlantis to the other side were pretty pricey and still paying Bahamian prices, so savings aren't gonna be much. Still always nice to leave the resort, but unless you have a big group.

Appreciate all the advice. I dont mind paying Atlantis "hostage fees" if the restaurant is good or unique

But im not paying 40 bucks for a plate of spaghetti and meatballs, simply just not. Ill go off resort for dinner every night so that 40 dollar plate is at least something unique that I cant normally get.

You should definitely try it! It isn’t expensive and really good. Atlantis is a great place for kids. I would go offsite to eat. I would go to a grocery store and buy snacks and drinks before you get to Paradise Island though. Nassau is expensive. Atlantis and Paradise Island take expensive to a higher level.

Grab a cab and venture to the Fish Fry
I was docked at Bay St marina and Luciano’s was a walk down the dock but the area fish fry was good vibes. Kind of double decker places 12-16 long. Cigars stands and restaurants, best conch. Priced for locals so for Nassau it’s cheap.

My daughter wasn’t impressed with the food at Atlantis. They stayed a few nights on the way home from Sandals resort just to see what it was about. If they ever go back to the Bahamas it will be an air bnb. I don’t think they found the resorts worth the cost.
