This comfy and casual seafood spot turned out to be such a winner! Located on Adelaide East and easily spotted by their blue mermaid sign, they have a large and inviting bar area and comfy wooden booths.
Very versatile place - great for oysters & drinks or a proper sit down meal. I hear they do crazy oyster deals of 100 oysters for $100 on Thursdays which I gotta come back for!
We started with 3 dozen oysters which we slurped down in no time. The Kumamoto and fanny bays were amazing - sweet, plump and fresh, these are definitely crowd pleasers and you can't go wrong with them.
Most of our table ordered the mussels and fries which came in a coconut cream, garlic, lemongrass & cilantro sauce. Really fresh and fragrant and the fries were deadly.. huge mountain of perfectly crispy and herb seasoned fries, we would not stop stuffing our faces. A big highlight for me was the grilled whole fish. If you don't have a phobia for munching on a whole fish, you've got to try this. The fish was expertly charred and the meat was super delicate, juicy and well seasoned. Simple and oh so delicious.
And to top everything off, the no frills 10% off with yelp check in was really a bonus. I already scheduled my next visit!
