Thirsty Mermaid

Incredible place. Service was outstanding (Ionela was my server - she did a great job!) Had some oysters from the raw bar and a salad with a snapper sandwich. Everything was prepared perfectly and delicious. Will definitely be back. Great espresso as well.

This place was so much fun! Everything was so tasty! My husband had the fried oysters, one of the best he’s had, very crispy and fresh. And the hummus plate. The homes was so good that it has inspired me to try it at home! I had the large seafood platter. Ate every bit of it! Very fresh and perfect, actually. Then it was so good, we had to try the desserts. Intended to take them home, but ate all of them. We had the bread pudding and the honey pear.

Crab cakes were TO DIE FOR. My friend and I got a little meal here after spending all day tanning on the beach and it really hit the spot. Excellent wedge salad as well, just make sure you really love blue cheese before you order it! We arrived at happy hour and tried some of the draft beer, which was excellent. I also tried my first oysters here. Staff was super friendly as well! Thanks guys!

This is our February 2024 review - We visit Key West often and found this amazing seafood restaurant about 8 months ago when we were here last, so on this trip we knew we wanted to return and we went twice! Out first visit recently was to just stop at the bar for some bubbles prior to another dinner reservation elsewhere. We got our same server from the visit many months ago and she was just as great, but we also encountered Nicolas on this visit. So, we came back 2 nights later for dinner and were seated in an area handled by Nicolas and he immediately recognized us and welcomed us back… We enjoyed an amazing dinner with incredible service and great conversation with the staff!! The seafood here is incredible and fresh! The wine list is awesome and nicely priced! Portions are substantial and their menu is nicely diverse to accommodate anyone’s needs. Highly recommend stopping in, as we will continue to return on upcoming trips! ************************************************************* This was our June 2023 review - Came here for dinner one evening without reservations and opted for seating at the bar. Our server was excellent, very attentive throughout! They have a Very nice wine list (which is very nicely priced!) and a beautifully done, unique menu! They offer a different fresh catch each day, done in unique preparations. The décor is really nice and clean. The food was outstanding! Ceviche was very fresh and tasty! We tried their grouper and their yellow tail and both were AMAZING! It’s enjoyable to have fresh-caught seafood, such as what they offer! The only issue is the name… it sounds like a bar or something, but it’s definitely not, it’s a restaurant with an amazing selection of fresh seafood as well as a nice wine list, but surprisingly no spirits/cocktails. We’ll most definitely return! Highly recommend stopping in!

After swimming in the pool and feeling all icky and stuffing my mouth with constant seafood (it’s Key West, what else would I expect?). I wanted to eat something not involving seafood. Yes the name is of a cool sea creature but hey, might as well shoot my shot. I ordered the Gnnochi and my god, it was so good and the portion they give is insane especially with the price. It could feed like 2 adults. In my humbles opinion , if you’re is key west and tired of seafood or your children hate seafood, try this place out.

We had a fun time with a random couple we encountered at a local bar. The bartender sent us this way for dinner. The line caught swordfish was phenomenal and the gnocchi was also a delight. They have a good wine list and bottles are reasonably priced. Service was also impeccable m.

The scallops are to die for! Great service. Cute and quiet restaurant among all the noise. We had an excellent dinner. Definitely recommend it to everyone!

i’ve never written a bad review before even though some places probably deserved it, but what happened at this restaurant was almost comical. this “shrimp cocktail” was $17. there was no description on the menu and it was under the “raw bar” section. i’m not super educated on seafood so i’m not aware of the market price for shrimp but this felt like a slap in the face. i had to keep myself from laughing in the waiters face when he set it down in front of me. they also messed up my best friends order and severely overcooked her burger. the shrimp tasted good, that’s why i would have loved more of them. the staff don’t chose the prices so i didn’t make a scene, im just posting this so people are aware of what they’re getting into with the shrimp cocktail, i would have loved a warning!!
