Does diving into a pile of seasoned crab, shrimp, mussels, potatoes, cut sausage link, and corn on the cob smothered in a buttery sauce sound fun and tasty to you??? What about fresh oysters??
Kansas City may be known for the mouthwatering barbeque restaurants, but there are several locations in the Greater KC aera to enjoy a Cajun meal. Pull up those sleeves and strap on that boil bib...dig into a seafood boil in KC!
Seafood Island
Located: 10810 W 75th St, Shawnee, KS 66214
Seafood Island in Shawnee is a hidden gem that a lot of people in Kansas City may not know about! Seafood Island offers Cajun boils, oysters, and a full bar.
You must start your meal with the Hushpuppies appetizer and the Fried Okra appetizer. Feeling exotic? Try the Alligator Bite appetizer as well!
If you order a boil, I would recommend trying their house special seasoning, which is a mixture of Cajun spices, garlic butter and seasonings, and lemon pepper spices. The boils are severed hot and steamy in a bag filled with the Cajun sauce and you choice of seafood.
Red Crab Boil
Located: 697 NW Blue Pkwy, Lee's Summit, MO 64086
Red Crab Boil is an inviting and mouthwatering seafood boil restaurant in Lee's Summit. Start your meal off with a strawberry margarita or another adult beverage option from their full-bar. Looking for fresh oysters? You must try the butter & garlic oysters as well as the spicy oysters...both were delicious.
Pier 88 Boiling Seafood & Bar
Located: 11825 E US Hwy 40 D, Independence, MO 64055 (multiple locations in the US)
We were in the mood for some seafood and decided to check out Pier 88 off of I-70. We started our meal with the hush puppies appetizer and the onion rings appetizer. Both were delicious, but I'll be craving those hush puppies again soon! We also ordered one of the specials: 1/2 lb shrimp, 1/2 lb Snow Crab Legs, 1/2 lb sausage, corn, egg, and potato for $30. We ordered Hot as our spice level, but we could've gone up a notch! Make sure to try the strawberry lemonade...it's so delicious.
