I believe the answer is:

mess

(Other definitions for mess that I've seen before include "Confused situation" , "Where men might eat" , "Where military personnel eat" , "Place to eat" , "Army canteen - shambles" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, the L.A. Times Daily and The Washington Post.
