The food was simply delicious, everything presented great and at right temp. The ambiance was just right. The four of us were very impressed. Our new seafood Asian inspired restaurant!

Anyone looking for a perfect pre-theater meal, this is your place. The service was excellent (special nod to Jeanine who exceeded all expectations of what a server should be) and the host station staff were genuinely friendly and willing to seat me before my companion arrived, something I greatly appreciated. The menu was varied, the portions right-sized, the quality excellent and the ambiance upbeat without being too noisy. Two of us were able to share two appetizers and one entree and feel perfectly sated (and I was hungry!) and enjoy some conversation without screaming. The restaurant is also big enough that it looks like you can always find your way to a table or bar seat if you're looking for something last minute in the area. Also, don't miss the negroni choices - the bianco was delicious. So glad the Mermaid team decided to open this location!
