Shorty Pants Lounge Review

Love this restaraunt. I'm from Louisiana. We tried this place after hearing good things. We were not dissappointed. The food was fabulous. Great portions. Server was friendly and attentive. We definitely will be back soon.

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Food was worth the price. Jambalaya was excellent. Will go there again on my next trip to the lake

Excellent food and service. Seating right on the water. Get the Cajun quesadilla. Delicious.

Beautiful day and beautiful view! The food was AMAZING and the drinks were made perfectly. Thank you to Alicia for being such a great and attentive server and to Skylar for making some of the best drinks at the lake. :)

Fun place, good food and great drinks. Definitely a good place for family.

Love it has no pee pool, not to noisy, great atmosphere, great food. My favorite place to eat on the water, and I have to go 17 miles to get there.

Always a great place to stop by. Food is consistently delicious, service is great, and on the water!

Menu is diverse and prices are fair. I enjoyed the Pull Pork Sandwich, Baja Burger, Jack Daniel s Burger, and Cajun Club.

If your on the water this place is on the 21MM.

Best pulled pork at the Lake of Ozarks!! Be sure to try their mac-n-cheese as your side dish....Ummm Ummmmm GOOD. Great service - great food!!

Food was 5 stars, service was 3. Friendly and nice, but very slow. Worth the wait, but don't plan on making this a quick stop.

I have been there before and had great meals. This last visit I was really disappointed. I had the asian salad which was good but was missing ingredients that were described on the menu. The sundried cranberries were missing and as well I was looking forward to the rice noodles which were been chow mein noodles instead. Rice noodle even when fried are snowy white.I told the waitress and she went back to the kitchen and came back and told me that the rice noodles were on the salad and they were out of the cranberries. As well, the bourbon carrots which were always amazing were really lacking in flavor and sauce last night also the gumbo had a dirty taste which boils down to a poor job making the broth and not skimming it well. I will say that the service was alright and our server really tried and had a good attitude. I'm going to assume that it's the beginning of the season and the crew is new and will get back on track with more practice and training. Hopefully they will get back on track to serving the great meals they had in the past.

Great place. Awesome lakeside atmosphere. Plenty of mooring slips to come by boat. Great food & service.

Great place,best food on the lake,great wait staff!

The food was off the charts! I had the shrimp and grits tacos. Yummy

This place is the most expensive bland food I have ever had.

DOESN'T EVEN EXIST!!!! WE TRIED TO GET THERE AND THERE IS NO ROAD!!!!!!!!!

Great food. Service slow but expected on lake. Great mojitos and wings

Do not expect a cheap meal, but the food is good. We love cajun dishes. However, it is hard to find good cajun food outside the deep south. Shorty Pants is our pick when at the lake. You will not be unsatisfied.

Great for appetizers and drinks, Lakeside fun and off the beaten path.

The food was so so and the service was slow. I was terribly disappointed in the fried green tomatoes.

One of our favorites at the Lake. Service is always great. Food and drinks are always excellent. Great place to watch football in the fall!

I ordered the crash cake pasta. The pasta was cold and tasted shrimpy, so I sent it back. Then the second one came back and it was still cold and the crab cake was not cooked in the center. So disappointed in this experience. Also, the waitress disappeared and I had to tell the food runner about my cold food and she let my drink glass get empty.

Great food and drinks reasonably priced compared to other places in the area

Food was delicious and service was fast and friendly. Would love to go back.

Great place for a meal and a drink. Loved the atmosphere

Food was very good ,beer not real cold ,waitress great. Just wished employees wore masks.

Very good food - Large portions - staff was extremely nice! Will recommend to others.

Food was great! Service was pretty good, would have appreciated a little more attention to our drink levels. Admittedly they were very busy. We were on the way home from Branson, and it was nice to be free of our masks after having to be in them constantly. The restaurant atmosphere reminded of Beach side places in Florida. The restaurant had many people coming in from boats and PWC's. Car park is available, all of it is not obvious from the street.

Looked for a place to eat on the lake after a day of boating. Was not disappointed at all!!! service was great, food was even better and the drinks just kept going down. Will definitely be coming back.

Food was delicious! Had a little rough-around-the-edges hostess but we ordered our food to go. Plenty of places to sit.

Excellent margaritas and tasty Cajun food. Blackened catfish was very nice and light. The sausage is money. Enjoy!

It was a beautiful day and we sat on the deck. Food and service was good

Virginia was awesome waitress Whitty pretty and on the Ball, food was good too

Great views if you're sitting outside, feed the ducks and fish; the wait staff is friendly; the food is authentic, but takes some time.

Food and service was exceptional. A little pricey and drinks a little weak that's why I only gave it 4 stars. Everything else was top notch!! Would recommend.

Great service. Attentive bartenders. Excellent food. Live band on the Saturday I was there

Wings good, staff nice, service very very slow. Don't question manager he not up for it

Food was amazing, location right on lake is fabulous.

The food was okay and not very cajun if you've had the pleasure of eating in Louisiana. The flies were absolutely horrible and made it difficult to enjoy our meal from our indoor table. The service was, however wonderful. A waitress gave my son $.75 in a cup for fish food. There are some good sized fish, turtles, and ducks to feed. My son had a great time watching them eat. Pretty much made up for the flies.

We had a large group and sat under the awning. The flies were terrible. Sit by the water's edge and that is not a problem.

When we got our "ceasar" salad, I was very concerned that this place was going to be awful! It was gross looking iceberg lettuce with canned parmesan cheese and one giant crouton, so absolutely skip the ceasar salad. But, we ordered what I think was called the New Orleans sampler to share and it was very good! It had a wonderful amount of flavor and heat as Cajun food should! It was all cooked really well, and it was nice to sit right on the water. We liked that it was more of a family atmosphere than a party crowd. The service was great!

Great food, staff, and atmosphere. If it wasn't raining, we would of enjoyed the outside fire pit

Always great food and customer service. Low key most nights on restaurant side but usually busy with great live music often. Social distanced tables. This is a must every time we re here! Recommend the blacken steak with twice baked cajun mashed potatoes!

They was closed when we went but i bet i would of had a great time lol

Fried oysters were amazing. Dirty jambalaya was to die for. The rum runner with a floater was the thing of my dreams and the New Orleans Hurricane was refreshing.

Everything we had was amazing, except the "blackened ribeye". It was not blackened, it was not rare as I ordered.

Speaking as a Chef from the New Orleans area, their "blackening' leaves much to be desired and is quite misleading considering how on point their gumbo and jambalaya is.

Everything I'd tasted up until my entree made me feel like I was home again. The blackened ribeye ruined that.

I'd definitely eat there again but I'll never order their steak nor anything described as "blackened".

Disappointed Blackberry Mojitos had very little flavor. And waitress was very rude and carried herself with an arrogant attitude.

Great lakeside place to eat and see some neat boats. Prices a little high but a nice staff and atmosphere.

Very good . We sat on the deck, it was a nice evening out The food was good, but a little over priced. We just wanted burgers which were good we each had a beer. I had an extra beer before we left . Our bill was about $40 which is ridiculous for 2 ground beef with cheese and 3 beers. Probably won't go back.

Great food that's prepared very well. Very good for the price. Made from scratch quality! Impressed with the flavor, quantity, and presentation.

Delish! Got the shrimp and grits tacos and they were next level!

Great Cajun food. You have to get their Bloody Mary. It's the best I've had.

I'm local and this is by far my favorite spot to eat and definitely drink the house margaritas.
