MAMBO RESTAURANT AND BISTRO

Award-Winning Cuisine in an Open Air Dining Environment

Mambo Restaurant’s spacious, open-air dining, which fronts the Caribbean sea and the world’s second largest barrier reef, aims to change the Belizean consumer perception that international and imported food is better.

Developed by former Head Chef de Partie at the French Laundry, chef Léon Cerredo from Paris, France, and fellow French Laundry  alumnus and pastry Chef Stephen Lighter, the reimagined dining spaces and refined menus seamlessly blend global techniques with local flavours and practices.

The duo introduce two distinct Mambo eateries, including the new Mambo Bistro – a casual beachfront dining experience with a casual fare, inspired by their French upbringing and training with a local Belizean twist.

Mambo Bistro

The Bistro

The Bistro is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, offering a casual fare menu. All of our dishes are prepared with produce sourced from our sister property GAIA’s organic garden. Modern, sophisticated, local and simply delicious. Guests 10 and older are welcome for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
