Paradise isn't just a name—it's a feeling, and that's exactly what you get at Paradise Restaurant & Bar.
Perched on the side of a cliff at the 24 Mile Marker, along one of the most picturesque bends on Lake of the Ozarks, Paradise offers panoramic waterfront views, colorful multi-level decks, live music, and plenty of TVs to catch the game. Whether you arrive by boat or by car at 430 Tropical Trail in Sunrise Beach, it's the kind of place where you settle in and lose track of time.
The lakefront hotspot is also part of the family behind Tucker's Shuckers, Neon Taco, Franky & Louie's, and Malted Monkey, bringing that same fun atmosphere while carving out a tropical identity all its own.
Even if Paradise is already one of your go-to Lake stops, there's something new waiting. The restaurant rolled out several new menu items that are worth a return visit... check them out below!

All New Food at Paradise
Ceviche
Fresh, citrus-cured hoki fish is tossed with lime juice, red and white onion, tomatoes, cilantro, sea salt, and pepper before being served with tortilla chips. Light and refreshing, it's a perfect appetizer for a hot summer day.
Paradise Mango Salad with Shrimp
Turn this salad into a meal by adding grilled shrimp! Fresh greens are topped with mango salsa, cucumber, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and a housemade honey lime vinaigrette. The well-seasoned shrimp pair perfectly with the sweet pops of mango for a salad that tastes like summer.
Island Fire Steak Bowl
Don't let the name fool you—the "fire" isn't about heat. Tender steak bites are sautéed with peppers, onions, and sweet pineapple before being tossed in a pineapple rum glaze and served over seasoned rice with pickled onions.
The result is a balanced bowl that's sweet, savory, and makes you think of outdoor grilling in Hawaii.
Drinks Worth Sipping at Paradise
Skinny Margarita (New)
Sometimes simple is best.
Made with Milagro Silver Tequila, agave, and fresh lime juice, the "Skinnyrita" delivers classic margarita flavor with less sugar, making it a refreshing choice for a long afternoon at the Lake.
Tropic Gin Spritz (New)
If you're looking for something lighter, the Tropic Gin Spritz blends Hendrick's Gin, Aperol, passion fruit purée, lemon juice, and tonic water. It's bubbly and just fruity enough without becoming overly sweet.
Spicy Watermelon Paloma
For a little smoky kick, try this paloma. Jalapeño-infused Hornitos Reposado Tequila combines with watermelon purée, lime juice, grapefruit, and fresh jalapeños for a cocktail that's equal parts sweet and bold.
Nectar of the Gods
This one is a staple, and oh so fun.
The Nectar of the Gods blends rum, peach schnapps, mango, and strawberry purées into a frozen tropical cocktail. For an extra $5, it's served inside a fresh pineapple—the perfect touch for a drink that screams "vacation mode."
Whether you're stopping in for lunch, catching live music, signing up for Paint & Sip, or simply watching the boats cruise by, Paradise Restaurant & Bar continues to deliver exactly what its name promises.
Visit Paradise Restaurant & Bar before the season ends at 430 Tropical Trail in Sunrise Beach or by boat at the 24 Mile Marker.
