Caribbean mix — Restaurant in Lake Ozark

The good was the food. The Cuban was too much for one person at lunch but it was pretty good. Wife had the parm garlic wings and they were tasty too. The bad, was trying to get out of the bathroom without touching the handle. The door is on spring hinges that close while you're trying to throw away the towel in the trash that has to be activated with your foot and is too far away to do both, so you have to use your shirt to to turn the Knob and get out. Next time I'll just let the paper towel hit the floor and they can pick it up, not my first choice but hey, everybody else who exits that bathroom just touched it with their hand and chances are they didn't wash. The only other bad was the drink list. They had some good options but only the name was listed with no list of what was in it. Don't know if you're drinking rum, tequila, whiskey or what's in it so we passed and had water/soda. If they had description so you know what you're getting they would sell more drinks. Might be back might not but as a local, I'm glad they're here.

edit A few days after this review I see they added descriptions to the cocktail menu. Excellent idea! Now we want...

Dined here on a Wednesday night during the Shootout Boat Parade. We arrived before the crowds. Small dining room with some counter seating as well. Wings were on special for $1 each (6six minimum). We ordered Jamaican Jerk spiced and another order with Garlic Parm. Both were good, super meaty and lots or sauce, although my preference was the Jerk sauced. The rice balls are huge, stuffed with meat and cheese. They stole the show. My wife and I split the burger (1/2 pound of meat, thick (like 1/2”) slice of fried cheese and plantain) on a delicious bun. Even half was a lot to eat. Our 18 year old son also ordered the burger and took half home.

Service was good, but only one server running everything (maybe the owner?) so a little slow as the dining room filled up.

We’ll go back for sure. The menu in August 2024 is different than what was posted here on Google Maps when we dined with fewer entrees.

Also, only soft drinks, but if the dive bar next door is open you can buy a drink there and carry it back through the...

If you've ever been to Puerto Rico or the Dominican Republic you've surely tried the traditional Mufongo dish... And I'd bet you loved it! Boy do I have wonderful news for you! You don't have to travel 2k+ miles by plane to get it anymore! Caribbean Mix is the real deal! They also have the most wonderful Fried Cheese Sticks + we got lucky to try their special Birria Tacos! The young man who served us was absolutely delightful! The prices were mind blowing! We paid $42 for an appetizer, two meals, and a drink- in 2024 that's unheard of for a dinner like this! The atmosphere is clean, small, and personable. We will definitely be back, and I recommend you come try this authentic...
