    6 years later Submarine Crab ๐Ÿฆ€ is STILL as delicious as the first day we tried it. I have been to several other seafood boil locations but the flavors and service of SC is truly unbeatable. I love that you can get the drinks without sweetener - we order the green tea. The grilled scallops & oysters are always so delectable. The chicken wings are crispy and juicy. The shrimp and fries is pretty standard in flavor but it's the crispness and juicy factor that matter. Some of the best Krab Rangoons out there.The Cajun corn is so delicious with those crispy shallots ๐Ÿ˜‹ Our favorite is ordering the combo #3 with torpedo hot sauce. Gets packed since it's a small place but definitely worth the wait.

    This is strictly for oyster lovers. It's becoming increasingly difficult to find raw oysters on the half shell at a restaurant. And if you happen to be lucky to find them they have gotten extremely expensive. I happen to be in the Pembroke Pines area and I called a couple of different restaurants to see if they had any. This was the only restaurant that said yes. This place is kind of dive barish but the service is impeccable, the hosts were friendly, and I was served quickly and promptly. Price point was acceptable and normal. The restaurant is small and quaint. Definitely a bib place. I would recommend. And I definitely will eat here again. Maybe next time I'll try the crab since that's what they're famous for... ๐Ÿ™ƒ

    I gave a 5 stars to this place a year ago. I have to change it to complete trash now. It is so sad that when a place got so busy and became so arrogant and disrespectful to a point that was completely disgusting. The waiter here gave me a huh and uff when I made a simple request. when I question his attitude, and ask when isnโ€™t this restaurant be respectful to customer like all others. He had the balls to tell me, and I quote. โ€œThat is not how things work in hereโ€. What the effff!!!

    Food was very good! Great flavor and good portion sizes. If Iโ€™m being very honest tho, Amanda, the host, was stellar and amazing. Like she asked if this was our first time and when we said โ€œyesโ€ she took it upon herself to explained the whole menu, what she likes, what was most popular, what to order. I work in F&B management in the hotel industry and she is exactly what the books says of how to win over customers with customer service.

    The food was great, the wait was definitely long. And i had to go ask before continuing to wait any longer about a list, just to be told after waiting 25 mins that there was a waiting list, which was closed at 9p. The reason i give it a 4 star, being that it closed at 10 pm we arrived at 850pm and was told we can only order to go (it could have been better relayed before having us waste our time). To make matters worst, i ordered at 940p and didn't receive my to-go order until 1023p.

    Must try. The food is amazing , we ordered about everything on the menu aw we were a big party and each item is delicious. The sea food is cooked well and is tender and soft you can basically open the crab legs with your hands. Our waiter was really friendly and attentive as well. Donโ€™t expect the more fancy design for the resto as the aesthetic is humble yet neat. Will come again. We paid about 30$ per peson which is good for sea food. Oh and the service was so quick !

    This restaurant is way too small for the multitude of persons that pass through on a daily basis. We waited 1 hour 10 minutes for a wait time that was estimated to be 45 minutes. The order also took pretty long to be served. NOT IMPRESSED ! We ordered combo#2, torpedo, medium and it was overlly spicy. We could not by any means taste the flavours instead it was just pepper. 3 Persons from the group left with headaches. The portion sizes and prices were great. There was also nothing impressive about the service.

    *warning* eat at your own risk. Terrible customer service New owner, new worker,, flavor not the same Foods take 40min to come out. When there's only 2 other tables. And the waitress Kathryn had a big attitude when you ask for extra gloves and napkins. Never again

    I online ordered heads on shrimps and drove 30 minutes to pick them up. I was very disappointed when I found out that they were not fresh. I couldnโ€™t peel the shell off the shrimp and the shrimp meat was mushy and squashy. I am sorry to say this place is not like it used to be.

  • 4/5 Mrs. L. 1 year ago on Google
    Itโ€™s great! obviously you have to be a big seafood person ๐Ÿ˜† donโ€™t expect to go here with friends and get anything else. Everything was delicious we had the shrimp, crab, scallops, gumbo, fries and corn. The service was also good. A little pricey, but our server was amazing and when the scallops were a little small they brought out some more on the house without us even asking.

    This place wasn't decorated all fancy on the inside, but let me tell you the FOOD WAS BANGING!!! Like we were licking our gloves. Lol- The cost is kind of expensive but definitely worth every penny. We'll be returning for sure.

  • 1/5 Ann K. 2 years ago on Google
    I went online to place an order and could not place order without being charged 19% for an order that I was going to pick up. I called the store 4 times and could not get a person and was disconnected 4 times. I placed the order anyways and when I picked up the food, the employee told me that I have to go to their app to place an order and not get charged extra. So why is this not on the website? I always tip the people preparing my food, but did not this time as I already was charged for an order that I was picking up. She stated her boss set up their website.

    Sofia was awesome, she made great recommendations. I had the Cajun friend rice, my boyfriend had the broiled shrimps a la carte with corn, medium spice, delicious. Will definitely come back.

    Simply delicious ๐Ÿ˜‹ food and service . Would totally recommend. The service was nice very attentive of our drinks and needing napkins lol.

  • 5/5 Kaya G. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is delicious. Finally made it to one night without a wait! Figured out the sweet spot is before 7 pm on a Friday. Not thrilled that there grilled oysters went up to $18 for six pieces but glad the servers told us before it came out and we canceled. The mild garlic spice is my favorite and the place is clean. The servers try and are friendly! From all the crab spots I still drag west a half hour! Itโ€™s that good!!!

    Not what it used to be, I used to go regularly but moved away. They used to bring out the mermaid with dry ice in a done up cup, now it was given to us in a plastic cup, no flash or flair. The decor has stepped down , it used to be so lively and nice. I understand why there isn't a long wait on a Saturday. What a shame raising their price and lowering their standards.

  • 1/5 Karla B. 9 months ago on Google
    The customer service was great but you can tell their crabs and corn are frozen. It doesnโ€™t give that fresh ocean taste. Pricy and not worth it. First and last time trying it sorry.

  • 5/5 Tommy T. 9 months ago on Google
    Me and the wifeโ€™s go to place for crawfish. Their submarine sauce A1, lemon pepper wings, the garlic noodles. A few beers, and you got yourself a comfortable and satisfying experience

  • 4/5 W L. 5 years ago on Google
    Tried the Cajun fried rice, Seafood pasta, and Catfish w/seasoned fries, everything was good, except pasta were a bit over done and fries weren't anything special. But gonna go back and try some crab dishes next time. The place was simple but clean (windows can use some cleaning tho), nice staff. ***Went back for some Dungeness Crabs with torpedo sauce/mild... DELICIOUS!!!

  • 4/5 Crystal D. 9 months ago on Google
    Tried this place once years ago and it was okay. Gave it another chance and the garlic noodles were a little salty but it was good lol. The honey mango wings were good as well.

  • 4/5 B.A. 2. 2 years ago on Google
    Don't let the optics confuse you. This place has been around long before some of these big chain restaurants slinging out food. Definitely try them out !

  • 2/5 Ashley A. 4 months ago on Google
    The food was good when I came here the first time to get the seafood boil but this time I got chicken tenders and they were raw. They brought new ones but I honestly still feel grossed out. Won't be coming back.

  • 5/5 Iliadys Perez A. 1 year ago on Google
    It was our first time, it is very close to the house and we were happy. Our waitress Nissy very attentive and gave us a lot of help with the menu. Very nice and charming. We will come back and recommend it to all our friends.
