Duck In Market

Cajun restaurant

👍👍 We loved it. I had the catfish poor boy (only served on Friday) and my wife had the duck in burger (she loved it). We both had Cole slaw and it was also good. Located just off the bike trail, so that's how we wound up here. Cute combination of little store, bait, and restaurant, but it works. They...

Shay's Creole Smokehouse (Hosted by The Millstream)

Creole restaurant

👍👍 I live 45 minutes away from New Orleans. I come from a family of GREAT cooks, yet this place is impressive. I've been to places in New Orleans that claim creole cooking and this place brought me to my mom's house on holidays years ago. Food is great here with that nice creole spice. The gumbo, etouf...

👍 We were pleasantly surprised to find such good Cajun food being served in the Lake of the Ozarks area. Shrimp Daddy's, while relatively small, offers a relaxed atmosphere with New Orleans decor.

Crabs Landing

Seafood restaurant

🫤 Ordered the fried shrimp as I strolled by the restaurant on my way to Washington Ave. One word: Nah! 😑 Battered in unseasoned cornmeal, what I thought would be a nice treat turned out to be and underwhelming experience. Now, I recognize that this place is more suitable for the diner who wants a...
