Some of the state’s best sites are hiding right under our noses – and that’s exactly the case with Uncle Buck’s Grill. The under-the-sea themed eatery, which includes a huge aquarium, can be found inside the popular sporting goods store, Bass Pro Shops. With an atmosphere like no other, the restaurant is practically guaranteed to serve up an unforgettable dining experience. Take a look:

Though there are nearly 100 Bass Pro Shops scattered throughout the U.S., Mississippi is home to only one. Located in Pearl, MS, the Magnolia State’s lone location opened in November 2005.

Less than a year later, in April 2006, the shop opened its on-site restaurant, Uncle Buck’s Grill.
