Mallards is serving up award winning seafood & Cajun fare with southern hospitality. Born and raised in Kansas City Missouri, southern hospitality is on the top of our list. It’s more than tradition. It’s ice cold beer, key lime pie, and a party in our backyard. Our family wanted to turn passion into a reality in 2013, so we came together and opened Mallards. With Dad in charge of the menu all of our favorites started showing up! From Jambalaya to Tennessee Hot Chicken, our story finds itself on each and every plate!

    Wonderful experience and will definitely be back! Started with sticky ribs to share (except me, not GF), I had a wedge salad - both were amazing. Best wedge I’ve had& ribs fell off the bone good. Had filets and salmon with mashed potatoes and broccolini sides. Steaks were best we’ve had (better than Manny’s or Murray’s IMO), salmon was a bit chewy & miso flavor was “interesting” with salmon. Not my daughter’s favorite but still good. Service was great & as many have mentioned it is not quiet. Hard to hear sometimes. Casual dining with great food. Came home smelling like I was at a campfire though.

    It was my birthday, January 4th and we were greeted warmly. The server was very pleasant and she sat us at a very comfortable table. We ordered the seafood trio, past, steak and a chicken sandwich. The food came out at a reasonable time and was delicious. Since it was my birthday, the server brought me out a delicious creme' bulee. This restaurant has a great ambiance and I highly recommend it!!! The prices are also reasonable for the service and food that you receive. I will definitely be back!!!

    The corn fritters are always a hit! Then we had fish n chips, shrimp and clam chowder-wonderful meal. The breading was very light. Also they handled our child’s peanut allergy very well. We will be back!
