Thirsty Mermaid

Top choice in Key West


The lovely Thirsty Mermaid serves outstanding seafood in an elegant, easygoing space. The menu is a collection of sea-life culinary treasures such as an oyster bar, ceviche, middleneck clams and caviar. Among the main courses, seared diver scallops or togarashi-spiced tuna with jasmine rice are outstanding. There are also luxurious sandwiches with lobster, fried oysters or local snapper fillings.

There are a few non-seafood selections: like poached pear and Brie sandwiches or gnocchi with spicy short-rib ragu.
