The Unassuming Missouri Restaurant That Serves The Best Seafood You’ve Ever Tried

Landlocked Missouri probably isn’t a state where you would expect to find amazing seafood. Even more surprising is finding a great place for shellfish in Joplin, which doesn’t even have a major river flowing through it. Yet, located off a busy street in the same parking lot as a Save A Lot grocery, is an unassuming restaurant that serves the best seafood you’ve ever tried.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
