Mermaid's Garden – Seafood
This maritime sanctuary captures the essence of a coastal escape, where the scent of sea salt and fresh citrus fills a bright, inviting space. Chilled platters of Old Bay-dusted shrimp and zesty ceviche lead the way to buttery lobster rolls and velvety smoked pates, celebrating the ocean’s bounty with every vibrant bite. It is a refined yet relaxed destination where the simple elegance of perfectly poached salmon and golden fish cakes brings the spirit of the seaside directly to the table.
