Review Summary

Vincent Sous-Marins receives a mixed reception in these reviews, with nostalgia for a well filled warm sub and competitive prices paired with reports of inconsistency and flavor gaps over time.

Overall, the reviews suggest good value and reliable service, but flavor and consistency vary and some longtime fans feel it is not what it used to be.View restaurant profile
