A Small Food With BIG Flavor - Our Succulent Shrimp!

Seafood is always a favorite food to order at our Lake of the Ozarks waterfront restaurant & bar. While we offer a wonderful variety of different types of seafood here at Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina in Osage Beach, today we're taking a closer look at one particular small crustacean that packs big flavor - shrimp! 



Delicious AND So Much More!
Sure, the main reason so many people look for shrimp on the menu at Shorty Pants is that it tastes delicious. In case you didn't already know, eating these tasty treats have some great health benefits too! 
  • Low in Calories & Carbs
    A medium shrimp on its own is only about 7 calories and they are also low in carbs. They are mostly made up of protein and water. 
  • Rich in Nutrients
    Shrimp is rich in protein, vitamin B12, and phosphorus, among other important nutrients, plus it contains two types of antioxidants - selenium and astaxanthin.
