Smoky Mermaid Restaurant & Bar

This courtyard restaurant, in a grand former mansion, is popular for its relaxed garden setting and Caribbean-accented food (cassava-crusted snapper, piña colada pie). The atmosphere is equally winning: strings of lights festoon the branches, and the outdoor bar has bucket-seat stools mounted on tree trunks.
