Malibu Eatery - 3 fish tacos - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Been eating from here for a few years every now and again. They used to be a solid 4 star spot before but food quality and quantity have declined while prices have gone up. The last few times I have taken out they have screwed up the order as well. Either missed ingredients altogether or just didn't get the order right and by the time I am home, it's too late to do anything about it. Still not bad for semi-healthy options but don't expect it to be great. read more

This place is great for the value. Very generous with protein portion and friendly service. Not the best place to eat in but I'd come back for a take out! read more

Malibu Eatery - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

I have been to the one in Huntington Beach, and didn't think much of it. However, I came to the Redondo Beach location as a second choice - nearby Jus' Poke was closed on a Tue - WTH?!?!?! MFG is located on PCH near 190th in Redondo Beach. MFG specializes in fish entrees ranging from $10 to $13 w/ two sides. You can also choose the flavor on your fish. Sides include salad, veggies, and rice. I ordered the grilled catfish (lemon/oregano), with salad and rice pilaf ($11). The fish was OK. It did not have much taste so I had to add salt: 3 Stars. However, the portion of the fish was about half of what you receive at California Fish Grill for $1.50 less. Secondarily, the sides were garden variety: 3 Stars. The service was OK. The cashier was friendly, and the food came out quickly: 3 Stars. The ambiance is nothing to speak of. There is an outside dining area, but it fronts on busy PCH. In addition, there was a smashed, dried out dead rat in the driveway to the restaurant - nasty!!! - 2 Stars. Don't get me wrong, the concept is great: Fresh seafood at reasonable prices. However, if you have been to California Fish Grill, CFG is much better and less expensive. MFG is a "I'm in the neighborhood kinda place", because I wouldn't drive the 5 miles from my office to come back here again. read more

Malibu Eatery - Grilled catfish ($11 - w/ rice & salad inc) - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

My first time to Malibu Fish Grill and there were only things that were good. 1) the staff, they were so helpful, efficient, and friendly 2) the fish taco Unfortunately, the rest of what we ordered was pretty mediocre. I had been wanting to come here for a while. My hubby surprised me when we pulled up into the parking lot. It was about 6:45PM and the super tiny lot was full, so we parked elsewhere and walked over. Not a big deal for us. * Clam Chowder - it was a bit runny and not all that much was in it. It tasted okay. Not the best, not the worst. It was barely warm. I would have liked it to at least be soup temperature, or better yet, super hot! * Ahi Poke - it wasn't like any other Poke I've had. I'm used to Poke with avocado pieces and other things in it. I like that it was ALL Poke, I just didn't care for the flavor, it seemed a bit vinegar-y although there isn't any in there, per the description. I enjoyed the chips that came with it, I ate them with salsa. * Cod Fish Taco - it was pretty good! Hubby had that and I tasted just a piece of the fish. The only drawback is that the fish is basically a sliver. It could have used two pieces or a bigger piece. * Special - Yellowtail - at first, it was pretty good. Then I got to the part that appeared under-cooked and looked like a seared ahi tuna. I don't know if this is the way it was supposed to be or if it truly was under-cooked. Either way, I just couldn't eat about the last fifth of the filet. I eat sushi & poke, so that consistency doesn't really bother me, I just don't want to get sick and also, it didn't taste as good as the cooked portion. * The sides I got were Rice Pilaf, which was rather bland, and the grilled veggies which would have been superb if they had been HOT. They were not even warm. I also got pita, but it's not a pita with a pocket. The plating/presentation is very nice. Made my Poke and Yellowtail Plate look fancy. I think this place has the potential to be really successful. They have pretty good service and it wasn't difficult to get anything we needed. A suggestion I have is to set napkins out somewhere so we don't have to bother asking someone for more. We didn't see any, so I'm thinking the only way to get more is by asking. The table next to us had a discrepancy in their order and the employee took care of it without question. That's great service, too. I'm glad I came to give it a go. Too bad I probably won't be coming back for the grilled fish. If we come back again, I would pretty much only consider getting fried fish of some sort. I was trying to be healthy with the fish being grilled. Sometimes you can't win. Read the reviews and take your chances. Some love the food, some don't. Some love the service, some don't. It's a gamble. read more

I am almost hesitant to share! Great clam chowder, crab cakes, and individual sized wine selection. Here's the thing, they have happy hour prices on their appetizers. The food was hot, fresh, and delicious. And the prices are almost unbelievable. Great quality. Think you'll enjoy it. You can sit in, which I did. Airy and open feel. Give them a try. Nice staff too. read more

Went here prior to covid with a friend because we were craving fish tacos! They did not disappoint! Fresh fish accented nicely with aioli and delicious taco toppings. Overall go to place for fish tacos. We got the ice coffee because we went for lunch... which is advise avoiding. Overall two thumbs up! Parking is a bit of a tough situation, but you can park down the street for free at food 4 less and walk over if you don't want to hunt for closer street parking. read more

The food was very good. Fast service the ambiance was perfect right on the ocean. Very good service

Ate here on a Saturday afternoon with spouse and three grown children. Small parking lot, would be tough if they were crowded. Two of us got fish tacos, one got Poké salad, two got seared tuna on salad. All very good. Rubio's fish tacos are better, and Sweetfin Poké is better, granted, and we still really liked the food here. Lovely, comfortable seating. Great service. I would definitely return. read more

Super bummed last night when we ordered our food land arrived at the stated pick up time (35 min before posted closing time) and was told by the departing employee that our order had been cancelled and they were closed. Things happen, but the fact that the manager and corporate made no effort to correct it and my payment has not been refunded yet will cause us to take Malibu off our list. Good thing Captain Kidd's stuck by their hours. read more

There's been a lot of fish grills by so many names popping up be it Malibu, California, Blue Salt or whomever else that offers fresh fish for under $10. The Malibu Fish Grill is great! Their fried prawns are amazing, they don't skimp on their shrimp and are not selfish with their shellfish... read more

Malibu Eatery - Generous portions of jumbo golden fried shimp - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

This place is awesome!! I had their grilled salmon California bowl. It was honestly one of the best salads I've had in a while. I'm that skinny fat girl that loves food! But I am also constantly looking for a good salad that doesn't make me regret I didn't just go for the cheeseburger. The salad had edamame, carrots, corn, fried onions & brown rice. 5 star type of salad! Highly recommend :) read more

Everything here is incredible. From the fish tacos, the salmon platter, Greek salad, arugula salad, their bowls... Definitely my go to spot next door to my house. One disappointment- the fish isn't wild caught!!! Their salmon is incredible and it's very frustrating they can't make the transition. They had wild caught tuna but not salmon. read more

I posted an issue today regarding the Eatery not honoring a coupon from an e-mail that said they would. A little while later, I received a call from John at their Home office, apologizing for the mishap as being an error and not intentional. Feeling much better and besides that the order I had, the Avocado Toast and the Fish Sandwich were really a good lunch, so thank you Malibu Eatery for standing up. Sandy P Redondo Beach read more

Won't be going back. In the middle of heatwave and they refuse their customers cups of water. Thirty dollars for a diner for 2 and you can't get a cup of water. Saw a family of 4 come in and use the bathroom faucet water to drink. read more

Arrived around 7:45 and placed our order, and figured this was fine because on Yelp it says they close at 9. The cashier asked if we wanted to dine there or take our order to go. I said we wanted to dine there, as we had planned on it. I tipped ahead, sat at a table, and waited for our order. We were surprised when our order was handed to use in a to-go bag without explanation or apology, merely a "here's your order" before the cashier walked back behind the counter. The ticket on our bag even said "Here", and there was a guy dining next to use with plated food, so we were very confused. Glad I didn't order a glass of wine, like the group after us, because they were basically forced to take their wine to go. I wish the staff had said they were closing and not offered for us to dine there because we would have come back at another time, and had our dinner somewhere else. We didn't want to eat in our car, so we drove back home to eat instead; Definitely defeated the purpose of going out for dinner. I left feeling like the staff was bothered that we were there, and our food got cold and soggy by the time we were able to finally get back home to eat it. Definitely wasn't worth $52 + tip. read more

Great food and specials, friendly staff and clean tables! Try the fish sandwich, you won't regret it!

This place has fantastic food, great flavor and fresh ingredients. My main complaint is that they price their dishes like a dining restaurant, but they are an eatery, as the name aptly describes. Also, when I ate there, the menu was incorrectly priced lower than the actual cost. But other than that the food was delicious. The side salads are weak, but the fish and hummus are excellent. read more

Have passed by here many times but never got the chance to try it. I'm surprised at the rating tbh. This place was really good. We ordered the chicken avo wrap & chicken buttermilk sandwich, sweet potato fries, and a side of shrimp skewer. Everything was pretty tasty. The only thing that was disappointing was the shrimp. Wayyyyyy tooooo spicy. No indication of this on the menu either. Their service was quick and they put everything very neatly into the bag for pick up. I'll be coming back again. Thank you! read more

Food was delicious and very fresh. The interior is very simple and the patio backs up to Sepulveda but there are hedges to block the road and noise. It doesn't look like much on the inside but everyone was very happy with their lunch. I had the chopped greek salad, My daughter had the tacos and pita/hummus and my son had a chicken quesadilla. All were very good. Maybe they will have more ambiance once Covid has subsided. We will be back for eat in and take out. read more

Tasty salads, fresh fish, specials. Healthy food fast, courteous staff. I enjoy ordering from here. They also offer beer, wine, and cookies. Parking lot not large, but appreciate that they have one. Definitely recommend! read more

I love this place. I eat here at least once a week, either from DoorDash, pickup or coming into the location. I order their salads and add salmon every time. It's always juicy and never over cooked (which I love- I don't like dry fish). The girls that work the cashier are always so kind and helpful. I also like that I can buy a glass of wine when dining inside. There is parking and good natural light. The space is always clean too. Very happy and would recommend for easy, casual yummy food! read more

I like the happy hour special. Half off all apps. The food is fresh and tasty. Or at least the taco was. My calamari left much to be desired. No flavor. The dipping sauce wasn't amazing. I love calamari and I would never order it here again. My husband had a chicken quesadilla and was happy with it. 3 stars. I'm not running back to go to this place but wouldn't be against going. read more

I live near this restaurant and I have been thinking about trying Taco Tuesday's many times as I pass the restaurant driving! I finally made it into the restaurant this evening to order fish, chicken, steak tacos to go! I was so excited because I love taco Tuesday. I started with the two kinds of fish tacos....they weren't very interesting....not very tasty even with the salsa they provided. I've been went on to eat steak Tahoe which was shredded so I didn't really taste like steak it was very odd for a steak taco it should be cutting a little quarter inch pieces pieces? I ended with the chicken taco and there was absolutely no flavor I have no interest in going back there again there are plenty of Taco Tuesday places out there that are amazing! read more

AMAZING food. Everything on the menu should be in a five star restaurant!! The California bowls are bursting with flavor. The fish sandwich is mind blowing!! Everything they serve is superior in quality, flavor, portions, and freshness. My family eats here 2 to 3 times a week! read more

Love this place! Food is very tasty, fresh and affordable! Great place for take out! My favorite is a Greek Salad with Salmon - delish! Crab cakes are really good, but they switched them and the new ones are not as good as previous! Some favorites are chicken sandwich, shrimp quesadilla, kale salad with chicken and wraps! read more

Please don't look at the pictures and the menu the place is overrated nothing fresh everything is served cold nothing grilled they use a pen and hygiene is not up to standards read more

Good food at a good price. I will definitely go back when in town, service is just okay.

Four stars for the prices. Lunch was $33.00. That's pricy for two people at lunch. I know its fish and its fresh, but a little high. Maybe it was the diet coke?? OK, what the hell...I just went 5 stars. But, other than that it was fantastic. I had the salmon bowl and it was (and should have been) a nice big piece of fish. Well cooked and the tarter sauce was excellent. Came with brown rice, lettuce, cabbage, a bit of cheese and a nice light dressing. Perfect lunch. My wife had the salmon plate with the largest Greek salad ever as a side. Again, Salmon was really nicely cooked and good size. I always fight going here, but i have to say it was very good. I guess I'll lay off the soda to keep the price down. Service was quick and delightful. Parking can be tough, so be prepared. Small lot. read more

Malibu Fish Grill is a small chain of fast-casual grilled fish and salad restaurants. In the Southbay they have one in El Segundo on Sepulveda and another in north Redondo on PCH. They serve a variety of fish that can be either grilled or deep fried. They also have salads and tacos. You place your order at the counter and they bring the food to you when it's ready. They have a salsa bar along with tartar sauce and other condiments. The prices have been going up lately. The basic Mahi Mahi plate with 2 sides is now $13.00. The service is usually very good and the food is well prepared. read more

Wow, really? I'm the first to review this place?? This place opened about a couple months ago so I was pretty sure a fellow South Bay Yelper already put in their two cents about this one by now but I guess not... Malibu Fish is totally Yelp-worthy. It's the only GREAT fast food seafood I know of that serves up more than just fish n chips. Try one of their Grilled Fish Plates and you will know what I mean. It's a grilled fillet of whatever fish you choose that eclipses HALF YOUR PLATE (the salmon and mahi mahi are excellent) and seasoned the way you want: garlic butter, cajun, lemon-oregano, or teriyaki. The other half of your plate is shrouded with a garden salad drizzled with their tasty house dressing and your choice of rice pilaf or fries. I recommend the fries...they're thick and tossed with herbs and a great excuse to hoard their salsa bar and dip with their cocktail and tartar sauces. Inconspicuously hidden beneath your giant fish fillet are several wedges of warm pita bread, which I think is actually FLAT BREAD because they don't have pockets. Awesome compliment to the fish! Now I compel you to try this: Take a piece of pita (or flat bread, whatever), a chunk of fish, top it with a little tartar then fresh salsa, roll it like a taco and stuff it in your pie hole! Mmm you will thank me :) I'm so lucky this place is so close by! read more

Malibu Eatery - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

This is a great place! I wasn't sure how it was going to be because this location seems to have problems with retaining any sort of business establishment. I was surprised at how diverse the menu was with choices like plates, sandwiches, bowls, wraps, salads and even pastas all with your choice of fish, chicken or steak! You can get your fish done in either creole, asian or mediterranean style with their choices of garlic butter, cajun, lemon-oregano or teriyaki seasoning. I had the chicken kabob plate and it comes with two sides so I chose rice pilaf and a salad. It was pretty darn good as it came with two kabob sticks and had grilled zucchini and onions as well. All the plates come with pita bread too! Every Tuesday is Taco Tuesday so you can get $2.00 tacos all day. My dining partner tried the salmon taco and said it was really good, better than Wahoos! It was crowded with diners which is a good sign! The wait staff were very quick to clean off used tables because there was a steady flow of people the whole the time we were there. The patrons are more the upper middle class beach crowd which is a good sign that this place punches out a quality product! Definitely check this place out! Great quality, variety of plate selections and overall healthy fare! Parking is limited but there's plenty of it in the huge strip mall next door or if it's after 5:00, across the street at the post office or the bank (shhh!). read more

I've only been to this Malibu Fish Grill once. The food is very good (I had the tilapia grilled fish plate with garlic butter seasoning and rice pilaf on the side) but their parking lot is really small. We were lucky someone was leaving when we arrived or else we would have just gone somewhere else. I'd rather go to the El Segundo location and not have any parking issues. 4 stars, minus 1 for the parking. http://www.yelp.com/biz/malibu-fish-grill-el-segundo#hrid:syFzCfFW-JJ43ArzFSNGtw read more

My girls LOVE this place. Not even for the obvious choice, something from the sea...they dig the butter pasta. Who can argue? It comes with one side, and a small fountain drink - which is a good deal for around $5. Truth be told, I NEVER mind coming here, the tacos are really good. You can get the typical chicken, or steak, OR, a variety of fish tacos. You also get a choice between flour and corn tortillas, all said and done, the tacos are loaded, I can make a meal out of two tacos, but I like to leave full, so I usually go with 3! Tip - go on Taco Tuesday, all tacos are at a reduced price, between $2-$3 depending on what you get. The staff is all very friendly, and the food takes 10 minutes or less, which is fast considering it's fresh. I don't want to leave out the fish, they have a good variety, and a nice portion. The great thing about Malibu Fish Grill, is that you can eat really healthy here, they also make some great grilled vegetables. I also appreciate that they have a good salsa bar, and serve a small variety of beers ($4) - which is a good deal for an IPA when out to dinner. The atmosphere/seating is a step up from fast food, but not quite at the level of your favorite local restaurant. You get your food, eat, and leave the mess behind, they will buss your table. Only negative, parking can be a pain, I usually drive past the Malibu Fish Grill lot and park in the strip mall parking 100 yards down the road. read more

Malibu Eatery - Kids butter pasta - with pita and hummus side - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

I always get the grilled cajun tilapia plate with the vegetables and hummus as the sides. The tilapia is always grilled to perfection. Not too dry and always perfectly seasoned. The vegetables are never overcooked and always well seasoned. Hummus as a side is always a good thing when there is no extra charge. The food and service is always outstanding. Every once in while I get the crab cakes which is also pretty tasty but I try not to get it too often since its fried. Other than that this place is the best place you can go for a healthy and delicious meal. read more
