18 Best Cocktail Bars near Malibu

“Ummm dare I say one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had !!!“

“I was very impressed by the friendliness and service with Ollo for a recent catering delivery. I called around to several places and with very slow response times and abruptness directing me back to the website for Uber delivery. The host and manager Spencer followed up on the order and went out of the way to make sure it was a great experience for the group and the stressed out person (me:) trying to coordinate for the group. Highly recommend!!“

“ALWAYS AN AWSOME TIME , food , Drinks Ambiance , EVERYTHING FANTASTIC !!!!“

“My daughter and I shared a lovely dinner here during a weekend away. We loved the Le Bowl and the Vegan Falafel Bowl and shared a delicious Beef Carpaccio before our meal. Our server was so kind, offered great wine recommendations for me and a virgin Mojito for my daughter. We will definitely be back.“

“So delicious, I am not a rice person but I just couldn’t stop“

“Location is spectacular hence parking price $$$ so do yourself a favor, just go in and buy some lunch for the eats and views alone after a beach romp like we did. Maybe steer clear of the seafood because it's NOT good there. The lobster was a major disappointment. The drinks and massive chocolate cake dessert are definitely on point though which salvaged for a 3 star. Maybe just stick with fried goods or easy burger type foods. Awesome for an experience!“

“Tucked away behind a blue door, is a classy speakeasy-themed bar with smashing decor, fabulous drinks, and mixologists with finesse. This clean, sleek gem of a place is my favorite place to have a unique cocktail and bites. The lighting is cozy and on certain nights they have live music. Go, check it out. You can stop by the main restaurant and/or step back in time and enjoy this spiffy and sophisticated spot. Love it.“

“Have dined at Pearl District many times over the years for special occasions or just a nice evening out. It's always consistently delivered in great customer service and quality food. Offers great drink options and also an extensive wine list (by the glass or bottle). Some of the standout dishes are the "pan roasted wild mushrooms", "braised short ribs", filet mignon & branzino. For dessert the "wonder bar" is a must!“

“Absolutely love Lure! I’ve been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. The seafood is always incredibly fresh, everything on the menu is delicious, and the service is truly impeccable. A big thank you to the manager, Mark, and our waiter, Julio, for taking such great care of us and making sure we had everything we needed. They made the whole dining experience genuinely enjoyable.“

“Excellent menu with great food, reasonable prices, wonderful ambiance and a friendly staff What more would you want for date night“

“Friendly people, amazing food. Very nice to their musicians. 🙏🎶“

“This place is ten minutes from my house but the Angeleno along us is the one who found it and invited us there! Nice outdoor seating if you don’t want to be indoors; the cute menu includes vegetarian options and nice cocktails (though not poured deep); we lived our options. I got the impossible taco salad (Impossible crumbles replaced regular hamburger taco meat); my son had a Pepperoni flatbread; he pointed out to us that (per the menu)a dollar from every sale of that pizza goes to children’s charities. Gotta like a place that gives back! 💙 The Reuben was phenomenal. The wait staff was pleasant, courteous, and cheerful. We will be back!“

“Plata is one of my favorite spots for fresh, flavorful Mexican food with a gourmet twist. The dishes feel familiar but elevated with special ingredients I wouldn’t make at home.

I almost always order the Trio of Tacos so I can try different flavors. Tonight I had the crispy shrimp with mango salsa, the short rib, and the lettuce-wrap tinga taco with a crispy cheese tuille inside, all really good. Their cilantro rice and beans are great, too, and the watermelon aguas frescas was refreshing.

Service is consistently excellent friendly, attentive, and on top of everything. I also love the peaceful courtyard seating with greenery and a water feature. And as a bonus, TIFA Gelato! is right in the same center if you want something sweet afterward.

Highly recommend!“

“Excellent food, nicest people! ☀️“

“Un lugar muy agradable te atienden súper bien“

“Food and service are top notch“

“We celebrated our holiday dinner party at Rusti Kitchen Calabasas with our entire staff, and we were extremely happy with the service, food, ambiance, and overall experience. We arrived a bit early, and the owners kindly seated us at the bar and offered complimentary drinks while our table for 20 was being prepared. Throughout the evening, they checked in with us to make sure everything was taken care of.

Our staff loved everything that was served buffet-style—salmon, pasta, salads, pizza, vegetables, chicken, and a delicious dessert. We never felt rushed and truly felt at home, which made the night even more special. We had an amazing time and would absolutely recommend Rusti Kitchen. We will definitely consider them again for future team gatherings.“

“We did not want to stop eating!!! I wish my tummy could take the whole menu. Top tier service, wonderful environment. Perfect staff. I don’t know what else to say other than how much i loved this place. If you’re looking for upscale Mexican restaurant, this is the place. Im definitely coming back, would recommend to everyone I know.“
