Mermaid Oyster Bar offers a taste of the beach with fresh seafood in a lively Village atmosphere. Guests can enjoy the tender, buttery Lobster Roll blue plate special or the rich, hearty clam chowder. The friendly and efficient service enhances the dining experience, making it a favorite spot for seafood lovers. The restaurant is known for its top-notch oysters, clams, calamari, and drinks. The wellfleet oysters are favorites among guests, and the atmosphere is described as chill and intimate yet open, with a Cape Cod feel and the smell of seafood cooking inside.
Happy hour is considered one of the best in NYC, featuring a variety of decently sized portions on weekends. The hot n dirty cocktail is a highlight, and on Mondays, guests can enjoy all-day happy hour with complimentary chocolate pudding at the end of their meal. Recent reviews praised the fresh oysters, crispy calamari, and great cocktails, along with the friendly staff who take the time to explain the different oyster varieties. While some guests experienced slow service, they enjoyed dishes like the Caesar salad, fish tacos, and the sea bass in brown butter. Overall, Mermaid Oyster Bar remains a top choice for happy hour or regular dining, offering great service, a vibrant atmosphere, and a focus on fresh seafood.
