DOC FORDS SANIBEL RUM BAR & GRILLE
A place of legend is Doc Fords and the food is legendary in its own right. My top seafood dish by far the Seafood Paella is unrivaled at Doc Fords consisting of jumbo scallops, shrimp, mussels and tender fish medallions with chorizo sausage saffron rice, carmelized onions and tomatoes and their hand-cut mahi-mahi seared in sweet soy sauce, placed on a jasmine rice stir fry with a prickly pear ginger vinaigrette is one of their Signature Dishes

Presentation alone is not what matters to this great chef. We had the Shrimp appetizer bacon wrapped, crab stuffed shrimp in lemon butter sauce and were very much impressed.

CLASSIC FILET MIGNON – Incredible beef served with Stilton butter and roasted garlic potatoes

THE CROWS NEST
