Wonderful food & service! We had the porkchops & the caramelized salmon & end with the fruit crisp. Delicious!

I came here for mom's weekend and there was this really pretty blonde host who was so kind and helped us out. She was so nice and made sure we got a table and were comfortable! Her generosity carried through so much I thought I needed to write a review!

First time here. The food was amazing. The atmosphere made me feel like I know everybody here. J B the owner came over and talked to us and thanked us for coming.

A Must-Visit!
From start to finish, my experience at Malibu Grill was absolutely outstanding. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm hospitality — our hostess set the tone for the entire evening, and the bartender and waiter kept it going with exceptional service throughout the night. We even had the pleasure of meeting JB, the owner, which was a wonderful personal touch that you don’t often get at a restaurant.
Now, the food. We started with the spinach dip appetizer, and it was the perfect way to kick off the meal. For the main course, the prime rib was incredible — cooked to perfection and paired with potatoes that were equally impressive. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, the cheesecake dessert sealed the deal as the perfect ending to a perfect meal.
Malibu Grill delivers on every level — amazing food, top-notch service, and an atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Highly recommend!

Great food!
It's all about the regulars on the bar side. We have a had time getting good service every time we have been there.
The only reason I keep going back is bc I enjoy a few of their entrees.

I love this place so much and JB is the absolute best. He takes care of everyone and everything. I left my card there and he was able to meet me at the curb to return it!! One of my favorite restaurants in town. It’s Boss!!

We’ve been coming to Malibu Grill for years and it never disappoints. The cocktails are consistently fantastic, the seared tuna is a must-order, and the wood-fired pizza is always perfect. On our most recent visit, Iris and Jayce at the bar were absolutely wonderful — friendly, attentive, and clearly great at what they do. We also really appreciate how genuinely kid-friendly the atmosphere is. It’s one of our favorite places to bring our daughter, which makes the experience even better. Always a great meal and great service. Highly recommend!

We dine at Malibu often…It truly is the best food and service in B-town :)
Subpar food and overpriced. I don’t plan to return. The last 3 times has been a terrible experience. The last time, my food took 3 hours and was cold when we got it.

Dan and crew. Your restaurant could be great. However you have an inattentive waitress, Nicole, who does not understand timing. If a guest orders a drink — delivery of the same inside of 10 minutes would be acceptable. 20 minutes is not, and only delivered when asked about. Then to have Nicole give the excuse that I have a lot of tables is inexcusable. Appetizers should be delivered before salads — that did not happen. Only one appetizer was delivered and had to ask for the second. Why? Then when the entrees are delivered as the appetizers and salads were just delivered 5 minutes before is simply a management failure. Then to top it off my filet was raw when delivered and had to be send back was the icing on the cake. To add to the insult, with the managers knowing that things were going seriously wrong at our table, to not check back at all is why you deserve this low rating. You should be able to do better. Maybe get some more management coverage on the floor or simply pay attention to your customers.

I waiting over an hour for a Cesar salad with crispy chicken. The salad was mediocre as there was old lettuce. Although the flavor of the chicken was good, it was cold. The salad dressing itself didn’t taste like a Cesar salad, which was very disappointing. To make things worse there was a hair in my salad.
Not once did the server ask how the food was or came to see how we were doing.
They left the doors open, which there was a cold breeze and made it uncomfortable.
Overall, the restaurant environment, service and food is mediocre for the price. Would not recommend.
