Description:
- The Mermaid Inn, an upscale version of a classic seafood house, brings New England to the East Village. The decor comes straight from the walls of many a Maine dune-top shanty, though it works not as kitsch but as a subtle hint at days gone by. The cuisine works in much the same way. At the raw bar, you can choose from oysters, clams, and shrimp as well as a range of cocktails and samplers. Appetizers such as Crispy Fried Oysters, Shrimp Chowder and Roasted Mussels will warm your belly and your soul. The list of entrees is short and sweet; lobster sandwich, sauteed skate, shrimp 'n' scallop spaghetti, cod, salmon and pork chops. A nice array of fine wines is available by the bottle or by the glass.
