Submarine Crab - Wellington

Wow. I've been so disappointed in South Floridian food rankings that I cannot trust them. Their four stars are my two or three. This place breaks the mold. It's a very rare trianlge of food quality, food prices and service, thus the rare 5 stars. For some reason there are very few cajun, Creole restaurants in SoFlo. I ordered a mixture of waitress favorites because I was curious and my eyes were bigger than my stomach. The crab ragoons are made at the location and a chunk of blue crab is added to help localize it. By itself, it's great but dip it in the sweet and sour and it's like having dessert for an appetizer. Delicious. The first thing that hit me with their gumbo was the wonderful smell. Very close to mine. Nice taste and heat profile. Not too hot but if you want it hotter, they can help with that. I like a little more rice in mine but that's ok. The Cajun fried rice was fantastic. Huge amount. Great flavor. Plenty to take home to finish off later. I had two waitresses taking care of me. They were both very nice and very attentive. One, who I got to know better, knowing my history in restaurants, brought over the bottle with dried ice to make it bubble, for me to wash my hands after dinner. This is usually reserved for meals where you use your hands but she was sweet and wanted me to have the experience. It was a very nice touch to finish off the meal. This place is nothing fancy. It doesn't need to be. Fancy and cracking a pound of crawfish open and eating them don't necessarily go together. Thank you for bringing this to Florida.

Fantastic new place!! The Seafood Pasta and Crab Rangoon is delicious. The waiters and waitresses are super kind as well. :

Great food and service! Fresh fresh fresh! The sauce is amazing!

Omgggggg! That torpedo sauce is delicious with any of the combos. My fave!

The food at this restaurant is amazing! The seasonings are just right, and everything is fresh and served hot. The service is outstanding as well—everyone is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, especially for first-time visitors. I look forward to coming back!
