"Grouper sandwiches are right up there with Cuban sandwiches when it comes to must-devour Tampa fare. And Big Ray’s, located in South Tampa’s “South of Gandy” neighborhood (home of Mac Dill Air Force Base) does them up right. The owner grew up catching fish just blocks away on Ballast Point Pier, and now slings some of the best catches in town including the popular grouper sandwich (served grilled, blackened or fried) and grouper reuben on rye bread with thousand island dressing as well as shrimp po boys and lobster corn dogs. The old Florida vibe is complete thanks to casual picnic tables, cold brews, and a laid back outdoor setting."
