New American Restaurants in Malibu, CA

“I had a wonderful stay at Malibu Beach Inn! The hotel facilities were truly exceptional. The location right on the beach is absolutely stunning, and the views from the rooms are breathtaking. The rooms themselves are elegantly decorated and extremely comfortable, making it a perfect place to relax and unwind. The staff at the hotel were incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that every aspect of my stay was enjoyable. One of the highlights of the stay was meeting Realda. She was the most gracious host and her attention to detail was incredible. She kindly upgraded our room as it was my sisters birthday, we had a cake in the room along with a sweet birthday card. She packed up a bag of towels and freshly baked cookies we could enjoy on the beach. She was amazing! Malibu Beach Inn exceeded my expectations in every way, providing a luxurious and unforgettable beachfront experience. I can't wait to return and make more cherished memories at this exceptional hotel.“

“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!!“

“Great salmon salad 🥗 the waiters were very friendly“

“My wife and I recently had the pleasure of dining at Moonshadows in Malibu, and it was truly an unforgettable experience.

We started with the BBQ octopus and a dozen oysters, both of which were exquisitely prepared and presented. The octopus was tender and flavorful, and the oysters were fresh and succulent. For our main course, we shared the Lobster and Crab Linguine and the Miso Glazed Black Cod. Both dishes were absolutely divine! The linguine was perfectly cooked with a so fresh and good taste tomato sauce that was shocking, and the seafood was fresh and flavorful. The black cod was cooked to perfection, and the miso glaze was the perfect complement to the delicate flavor of the fish.

But the highlight of our experience was the breathtaking view. We had reserved a window table for 4pm, just in time to witness a spectacular sunset over the Pacific Ocean. The colors were simply unbelievable, and it was the perfect backdrop for our romantic dinner.

The service at Moonshadows was impeccable. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, and he made sure that we had everything we needed. The cocktails were also top-notch, and we enjoyed a couple of delicious drinks while we watched the sunset.

Overall, we had an amazing experience at Moonshadows. The food, the service, and the view were all exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a special dining experience in Malibu.

A few tips for those planning to visit:

Reserve a window table in advance, especially if you want to enjoy the sunset. Keep in mind that window tables have a two-hour limit.
Check the sunset time for the day of your reservation and book your table accordingly. I recommend booking it for 30 minutes before sunset to enjoy the full spectacle.
Don't miss out on the cocktails! They are expertly crafted and delicious.
I hope this review is helpful!“

“All the above! Love the ol Duke's BU!!“

“This place was really amazing. The weight staff was all great. They helped me out with a small issue. I had with my diabetes by providing me with some orange juice because my blood sugar had gotten low. I truly appreciate him doing that for me. Thank you so much and I will come back again next time I’m in San Diego.“

“Good food and ambience you will enjoy!“

“I did the takeout but I had to have the Pinot pasta with sausage but the chicken dinner which I wish I could remember the name of that special someone ordered? Was one of the best meals I’ve ever seen in my life and ever eaten… I had to have a bite of hers lol! The penne pasta with sausage was beyond yum!“

“Des plats généreux avec un bon service (a la toulousaine 😉) nous y avons passé un bon moment. Lés huîtres californienne sont à essayer petites mais bonnes.“

“The food is really good and the staff are very nice!“

“Went to Malibu Café following the local wine safari for lunch and drinks for a friends birthday, we were a party of 15 and the entire experience was seamless. The food was absolutely amazing. I had the shaved beef sandwich and we shared the cheese board with the Froze along with "The Justin" a Cabernet Sauvignon. Will definitely be returning, and would highly recommend it to friends.“
