Rocky Benard brings Cajun food to Clovis

Jun. 18—Clovis entrepreneur Rocky Benard has opened a restaurant serving Cajun food.

The Salty Mermaid is in the Red Arrow entertainment center, 320 W. 21st St., Clovis.

"Me and Rocky were just brainstorming about names we could name it and we liked mermaids," Benard spokesperson Maria Galang said Monday.

Galang also likes the word salty "because it means you have, like, an attitude."

Galag said The Salty Mermaid will be serving boils of all kinds: Snow Crab leg boils, crawfish, shrimp, lobster tail, scallops and mussels. "We'll also have appetizers, Po' Boys, burgers, salads, baskets and some pastas," Galang said.

The Salty Mermaid will be open Tuesday through Sunday, 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.
