Quentissential old-school, road-side, family diner-with a pleasnt vintage atmosphere! If you're driving through STOP here! Or, go out of your way to eat here-you won't be disappointed! Food was grear, prices good, service A+!

Everything was very good but the waitress was very strange like saying do you guys want anything different from water? We ordered a bottle of wine, we were 4 at the table, and she asked in a bit of a rude tone do you want 4 glasses? We asked for an ice bucket which we received but no one ever suggested to pour the wine for us! Of course we took care of it ourselves! One of us ordered pumpkin ravioli and was told that other customers had complained about it having too much butter! I'm Italian and I know that butter is the best combination with ravioli! My husband just said he doesn't care what other customers had to say! The busboy, the people at the reception and the manager were all very nice and the waitress was just as if she didn't belong there!

Excellent service and great ambiance. Food is good, if a little pricey, and the beach view of the sunset is fantastic.

Great experience. We had a perfect view of the ocean right in front of us. Scott was our server and was great. The energy increased as it got later. This was our first time there. We were so pleased to find it is a sister restaurant of Moonshadows, a Malibu classic that was lost in the fire.

Wonderful atmosphere with great food right by the ocean. The service was friendly, will definitely return.

It was a great visit. We tried the Tricolored Salad, and it was delicious. But, once again, the Octopus and Pumpkin Tortelloni stole the spot light. We'll be back soon.

Not sure we'll go back. Our server forgot about us for so long that we went and found her (which I have NEVER done in my entire life). This happened TWICE during our meal. Most bizarre experience ever. Won't be recommending.

This establishment has hands down the best service and the best food in the amboy area, for a sit down restaurant!

Sunset has been one of my fave Malibu dining spots for years. Good location (except for beach traffic and parking) across from the beach, with usually friendly service, good food, and a nice selection of wines and cocktails. However, this visit was a big disappointment and happened to be a special occasion - a birthday celebration. Despite making a very early dinner reservation, the restaurant seemed to be understaffed. It is a popular dining spot, but I've never experienced watching and hearing multiple diners at tables near us trying to flag down a server- whether it was to place their initial order, check on the status of their drinks or food items , or make some other request. While I made a point of mentioning to the server when she first came to the table for drink orders that my friend was hungry and we'd want to order soon, I'd watch her go to tables close to us several times over 10 or 15 minutes and never acknowledge our meeting of eyes or approach our table to work with us. Very slow and inattentive service, And my entree was very disappointing. I ordered the seafood linguine and while the pasta and sauce was tasty the dish was Alamos w tiredly calamari rings and little prices which were very chewy/tough. I ate less than 1/3 of the ‘seafood'. Very disappointing experience - didn't make for a special birthday celebration.

Our Host and Hostess were extremely accommodating The restaurant was very crowded . We were seated a bit earlier than expected and attended to immediately. The GM noticed our table was a bit too close to a party of 8 young kids .. and kindly moved us. Our food and service was excellent. If you like vibrant and lively atmospheres You gotta book your reservation.
