Fantastic service and excellent Salmon Risotto! Others at the table had Canadian walleye and prime rib. A cup of Louisiana gumbo soup hit the spot!

Inver Grove Heights

About the restaurant

Mallards is serving up award winning seafood & Cajun fare with southern hospitality. Born and raised in Kansas City Missouri, southern hospitality is on the top of our list. It’s more than tradition. It’s ice cold beer, key lime pie, and a party in our backyard. Our family wanted to turn passion into a reality in 2013, so we came together and opened Mallards. With Dad in charge of the menu all of our favorites started showing up! From Jambalaya to Tennessee Hot Chicken, our story finds itself on each and every plate!
