Beach House Cafe

[Daddy Carp]

This is probably some of the best foods I have had over several years. My wife and I dine out quite often and like to try the new places, concepts and chef-offerings throught the mid-west. We took a trip through Louisanna in 2000 with the purpose of sightseeing and eating at some of the local, authentic, Cajun & Creole cafes around the gulf area & New Orleans. We started eating at the Beach House Cafe after moving to Rockaway Beach last year. It seems that each item we try is better than the last.

We were most impressed with the "Seafood Buffet" on Friday eves. where you can get all you can eat of shrimp, redfish, mussels, frog legs, crawfish, etc. all done up Louisanna style. I and my wife both agree that the crafish and baked redfish is better than any we had while touring Louisanna. It is no wonder, I have learned that Ellen has a great abundance of expertise in this area. It seems that she cooked for many years for the Cajuns and riggers on the Louisanna off-shore oil rigs. If you happen to be in the area for lunch (you can go by boat and moar at her dock in the back) I would highly recommend the gumbo or an oyster po'boy sandwich! If you try it once, I promise you will be back for more whenever you can. Besides the fine foods on Friday eve. Ellen has a country band that is very good on "old style" country and bluegrass. Come on down & try it out!

My wife and I hit the seafood buffet Friday night on the way into Branson, it was everything we heard it was (we ate lunch there a couple weeks ago too). The catfish was great as was the shrimp and fried oysters. We didn't opt for the extra for the crab legs, I can never get full on crab legs you work up more of an appetite cracking and shelling them than getting full. It beats any of the buffets in Branson.

You guys have talked me into it. Where is it located? I am thinking I will start launching my boat at Rockaway and not Branson so I can eat at Pizza Celler or Beach House when I take out of the water because there is no courtsey dock to tie up to while fishing.

It is right in the middle of town on the main drag. It is on the same side of the road the lake is on. It is across the street from the sporting goods store.
