On a gorgeous day, my friend and I enjoyed lunch outdoors here. The inside was a lovely atmosphere and the outdoor dining was quite enjoyable. I had the salmon salad and she had the blackened chicken salad. It came with a tiny free bread loaf set in a light drizzle of oil. The prices were what I expected (about $16 for a salad) in a higher end type of restaurant (definitely not fast food fare). I’ll definitely be eating here again. The service was friendly and prompt, too.

We had an event in the Banquet Room at Mermaids and I can’t say enough good things about the staff at Mermaids! Damon was unbelievably helpful and accommodating and every single person we worked with was so friendly! The room was perfect for the event and the food was delicious, but the staff makes having an event there so worth it regardless!

Loved everything but the main dish. Food is lacking flavor and is not good. I got the mermaids Alfredo with chicken. Chicken taste like it came from a can.

Anniversary night- I had the special which was a 12oz New York Strip Steak w/ bearnaise sauce & tarragon spice which to gave it a hint of a certain smoke flavor. Hands down the best steak flavor I have had in a loooooong time! A nice cut of a good steak and this sauce is a must try!

Wow, what great food! Some of the most tender calamari I have ever had (in Arkansas?) We enjoyed our cocktails (French 75) and I had the salad with chicken and shrimp. Light dressing, feta cheese, with big shrimp and chicken curry to bite size. So big I took it home and he’d the rest for breakfast. Loved the bread with the drizzle butter!

We have visited this restaurant two times, each time was for a special occasion (wedding rehearsal dinners). They really decorated their special room very well. It was beautiful with all the little white lights and they treated us wonderfully with their attentive service.

My husband & I spent our 5 year wedding anniversary here and we are SO glad we did! Our server, Brian, made our experience absolutely awesome. He was extraordinarily knowledgeable in all dishes on the dinner menu! I chose the duck and my husband chose Mongchong, fish from Hawaii, which was the special of the night. Our dishes were phenomenally flavorful and worth it. We even had enough room to order the brownie pie to celebrate our anniversary on a sweet note! We highly recommend this place for a nice night out for some delectable food!

The food and drinks were well prepared, perfect temperature and delicious, but a bit overpriced. The atmosphere was pleasant. The staff were unprofessional compared to other formal restaurants we’ve visited. I highly recommend the blackened mahi-mahi and Cajun pasta.
