We went to Geoffrey's Malibu for dinner and overall had a wonderful evening. The food was…read moreabsolutely delicious, and the drinks were really good as well. Our server was friendly, attentive, and made the experience enjoyable. The ocean view and beautiful atmosphere are definitely the highlights of this restaurant. It's a gorgeous place for a special dinner, especially around sunset. The reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is mainly because of the seating situation and the unexpected surcharge. We asked if we could sit at a table next to the glass window with a better ocean view. We completely understand that those tables may not always be available, and we weren't expecting special treatment. However, when we asked one of the hosts about an ocean-view table, the communication was not very clear, and the table we were moved to was not what we had requested. What was more disappointing was surcharge. We honestly didn't understand what the surcharge was for, and no one clearly explained it to us. It felt unnecessary, especially since we were simply trying to get the table we had asked about in the first place. If there is a surcharge, I think customers should be clearly informed about what it is for before being charged. That said, the food, drinks, server, and beautiful Malibu setting were all excellent. We really enjoyed our dinner and would come back again.

The fish was incredibly fresh, the portions were generous, and everything tasted like it came straight from the ocean. The outdoor patio has an amazing Malibu vibe, with beautiful views and a casual setting that makes the experience even better.

Great food, great views, and a true California beach experience. I'll definitely be coming back!

Went in for lunch with some friends. The parking situation can be a little misunderstanding. There…read moreis a public lot that requires you to pay $12 right next to the establishment. The restaurant does have its own parking, but that tends to fill up pretty quick. Would recommend passing the restaurant and parking on the right side of the road though there is a bridge that goes underground if you park on the other side. The staff was very friendly, and there was a long line just to order. Went with The, fish and chips, to tacos and ceviche. The fish and chips were the best part. The fish is decent sized and the fries were amazing. Crispy outside with a baked potato inside. I did not try the CVA that my friend did not care for it very much. He did mention that the ingredients refresh, but the flavor profile was not to his like. Recommend getting the three-piece fish and chips to share with somebody. It does get kind of pricey if you order everything à la carte. The views are amazing and definitely appreciate the filtered water station by the patio tables. Very family, friendly, lots of people enjoying the weather and outdoor seating.

Came here for a birthday and food was amazing. Our server on the other hand was absolutely awful…read moreand rude. We sat for about 20 minutes waiting for a server with no drink orders out in. Understood that we were a large group so maybe giving us time to look over everything. Our server continued to be rude the entire time we ate. Drinks took forever to come out, when one of us just politely checked in we were snapped at by the waiter that the bar was busy. Another time when we asked for a refill on our water pitcher we were asked "Do you want it now, or tomorrow?". We waited for the check for a while, and once again one person was snapped at by our waiter. We were a large party and gratuity was already going to be included so guess he didn't care at all about manners and having a nice interaction. Food and setting were great at least!

2/5 We ordered…read morealmost everything on the menu, and unfortunately, a lot of the dishes tasted like they were drowned in vinaigrette. After trying so many items, the flavors started to feel repetitive and underwhelming, especially considering the price point. Even our cocktail was supposed to come with the signature Nobu ice cube, but it didn't. It's a small detail, but at this price point and with Nobu's reputation, you expect the presentation and experience to match what's advertised. You can definitely get a more authentic sushi or Japanese dining experience elsewhere for much less. It honestly feels like you're paying for the Nobu name and the view more than the food. There's also no self-parking option, so you're basically forced to valet for $15, which feels like another unnecessary money grab on top of an already expensive meal. Beautiful view, but overall the food, drinks, and experience didn't justify the price.

The dinner entrees were absolutely fantastic!…read more First up was the Branzino, which was cooked to perfection without any fishy taste. It had a crispy and delicious texture, and the spinach was fresh and not overcooked. To complement the dish, we had truffle fries that were crispy and incredibly tasty. Next, we tried the Wagyu Burger, which was a very delightful experience. It was very thick and cooked to my exact liking, resulting in a tender and flavorful burger. The fries were also very tasty. To wash it all down, we had a Blackberry Lemon Drop martini, which had a refreshing and delicious flavor. We also had the pleasure of meeting the founder of OLLO. He started working in the restaurant industry when he was just 15 years old. You can see him in our pictures. He was very welcoming and checked on us a few times during our visit.

I really wanted to like Malibu Brewing Company. The location is great, the presentation was…read moreexcellent, and I have to give a lot of credit to the staff. The service and hospitality were genuinely wonderful. Unfortunately, the food and beer didn't come close to matching the experience. I started with the Happy Days Honey Blonde Ale, which I understand is one of their most awarded beers. I was pretty surprised by how little flavor it had. It was nearly flavorless and honestly difficult to finish. I'd rather have a Bud Light, which somehow has more flavor. For food, I ordered the MBC Smashburger. It sounded like a winner from the description and looked fantastic when it arrived, but after the first bite, I knew something was off. The meat had virtually no seasoning or flavor. Even a basic amount of salt would have made a huge difference. The burger came with their house-made potato chips, which again looked great, but unfortunately had the exact same problem. They tasted like plain fried potatoes with seemingly no salt or seasoning at all. I don't know if the kitchen was simply having an off day, but overlooking something as fundamental as seasoning, especially salt, is pretty disappointing for food at this price point. There was clearly effort put into the presentation, but presentation only gets you so far when the food itself lacks flavor. Great location, excellent hospitality, and very friendly service, but based on the beer and food I had, there's a lot of room for improvement in the kitchen and brewery.

This restaurant is a weak and pale imitation of the original restaurant in Montecito. The sedate…read moreand club like atmosphere of the original Lucky's was abandoned in favour of an absurdly loud, annoying and garish venue. Lucky's Malibu announces its impending failures via a badly designed imitation of the facade of the original restaurant grafted onto the cut and paste flat wall architecture of the far side of the Cross Creek Mall. Upon entry, the main dining room / bar demonstrated the ambient noise level of a 1940s German steel mill during an Allied bombing raid. There is zero intimacy, warmth or charm offered. in case you didn't know, very loud dining rooms are almost always a design / business choice. They promote stress, encourage the heavy drinkers who relish these types of environments (a choice that is good for the bottom line but not diners), and create rapid table turnover. Not a great combination for an alleged "fine dining" establishment. intimate conversation disappears after about 45dB and at 70dB people start to experience physical reactions (including higher cortisol levels, muscular tension and vigilance) that make customers want to get up from their table rather than linger over dinner. The food was "OK". My wife ordered lamb chops and I had a bone in New York. The prices were quite high, but not astronomical, assuming the meat had been better prepared. It was "OK". The appetizers were a disaster. Grilled peach and prosciutto yielded peaches that were not grilled, low quality grainy ricotta and mediocre prosciutto. Bland and over priced. The iceberg wedge salad was large but was bland and ungenerous, with the allegedly associated salad dressing and other assorted salad ingredients. Service? Adequate. Polite, but rushed. Our server was hurried and conducted "big smile" performative check- ins that felt as if they had no discernible purpose other than to move us through courses and turn tables. I always assume that this style of service is not the server's fault, but a management choice. I am also willing to admit that the server was likely unable to conduct anything close to a genuine interest in our dinner experience because of the noise. Lucky's in Montecito attracts a very different crowd. More professional and reserved. The night we were at the Malibu location, it seemed to attract a lot of obnoxious, rude and badly dressed people who were advertising their real or fantasized connection to "the industry" by wearing t shirts, shorts, hoodies or otherwise dressing like slobs. We were profoundly relieved to exit Lucky's. Not my idea of how to drop $400+
