Welcome to Thirsty Marlin, Palm Harbor’s laid-back seafood & sushi joint where the waves meet your plate. Here, we serve only the freshest — still-flappin’ — seafood, premium meats, vibrant sushi, and seasonal produce from local farms. Sip tropical cocktails at our tiki bar, soak up live music under the palms, and enjoy dinner on our breezy patio. No fuss, no pretense — just great food, cold drinks, and a chill vibe you’ll want to stay in all night.
At Thirsty Marlin, our menu is a celebration of coastal flavor. Think hand-cut grouper, mahi mahi, conch, jumbo shrimp, and daily chef’s specials — blackened, grilled, fried, or cedar-plank — all prepared with care and passion. Sushi lovers, we’ve got you covered, too: fresh rolls, sashimi, nigiri, and creative chef’s specials that blend island flair with Japanese technique. Pair your meal with our “Tackle Box” sides — think sweet potatoes, beans & rice, or island slaw — or enjoy one of our signature appetizers to kick things off.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

You can’t beat our scene: an open-air tiki bar, string lights overhead, sand underfoot, and live music drifting through the night. Grab a seat at the bar or at one of our fire-pit tables, order a fishbowl or specialty cocktail, and let the evening unfold. Whether you’re here for happy hour, date night, or just to hang with friends, every visit feels like a tropical escape in your own backyard.
