Whether you’re lovebirds newly in love or a couple that’s been together for decades, a romantic dinner is a must for any trip to the Lake of the Ozarks.

With a charming ambiance, delicious food, and a robust wine list, we highly recommend you make reservations at a local restaurant called The Duck.

Opened in 1985, their distinctive lakefront dining experience features both traditional favorites and innovative creations prepared with the freshest ingredients by their culinary staff. A fun little tidbit: They initially opened as small cafe, called The Lucky Duck Waterfront Cafe. Click here to read about the story behind their name.

Begin your dinner with perfectly Smoked Trout or their Cheese & Meat Board that will you get tastebuds anxious for the main dish. Feel free to take a sneak peek at their Dinner menu, lighter options, and of course, their wine list.

The Ducks is located in Lake Ozark off of the Horseshoe Bend. Their address is 67 Cherokee Court, Lake Ozark, Missouri 65049. To make a reservation, call 573.365.9973.
