We’ve all heard that mantra location, location, location, especially when it comes to real estate. But the same can be said about choosing a restaurant. Sure, there are those times when a quick run through the drive-thru will suffice, but sometimes we want an experience, maybe looking out over the water and, if we’re lucky, catching a sunset. This incredible waterfront restaurant in Lake Lotawana, Missouri has it all – stunning views of the water, a chill vibe, and some of the best food in the area.
A little more than half an hour from Kansas City, Marina 27 Steak & Seafood sits along the 600-acre lake of the same name, offering some of the prettiest views in the area, especially as the sun begins to fall asleep each evening.
Even if it's a bit too chilly or you feel like sitting indoors, the golden sunlight streams through the windows in this relaxed restaurant in Missouri.
Try to time your visit for a warm afternoon or evening, so you can sit on the patio that looks out over the shimmering lake. Umbrellas promise much-needed shade.
Can you think of a better way to spend an evening than sipping a cold cocktail or mocktail as the sun sets and the heat from the fire pit nips any chill from the nighttime air?
This is one of those restaurants where you can really relax and savor the experience, so consider starting with a tasty appetizer. Escargot, smoked salmon, and blue crab cake are among your many choices.
The entrees showcase classic seafood and steak dishes. If you're in a seafood kind of mood, dig into the sea bass, blackened salmon, or broiled lobster tail.
A seat by the water, the sunlight or the moonlight dancing on the water, sometimes just calls for a grilled-how-you-like-it steak. Will you have the prime filet mignon or the prime filet strip?
