It had a very smooth taste; not bitter at all,& didn't have any overly sweet additives so it was all natural & healthy. My friend had a homemade strawberry lemonade which she also loved. But equally important,& to enhance the good experience,were the 2 adorable women who took care of me...Taylor & Lex,were friendly,colorful & professional, & though it was crowed, they were super fast. I never take the time to leave a review unless I'm really impressed,so here it is... And they make milkshakes which is kind of cool. Hope you get to experience this place!

What went well was a welcoming environment. This was an early Friday evening and the dinning area…read morewas sparse. Our party of 4 ordered a Caesar salad and a beet salad. Also a GF pasta dish and eggplant dish. We made it clear to the server about a gluten allergy and the server was more than accommodating checking with the back of the house. I specifically asked for no croutons and low and behold, the little nuggets were hidden throughout under very large slabs of Parmesan. He came back with a new salad but for anyone who deals with GI issues, your system is placed on high alert. Despite this establishment saying they have gluten free options, please check to be sure they are willing to take the necessary steps to avoid cross contamination and also ask if their meat sauces do not use flour as a thickening agent. Or, boiling their pasta in the same water as the non gluten pasta. Be an advocate for your own health. Otherwise, the food was mediocre in flavor.

I got a cappuccino and a pain au chocolate that were both excellent. The pastry was flakey, buttery and fresh. The cappuccino was delicious, 10/10 no notes. My wife enjoyed a warmed croissant that was just as good as the pain au chocolate. The atmosphere was great, Miami Beach vibes in the middle of Malibu. The stand out for me was the customer service. Huge shout out to Luis! He was warm, welcoming and made us both want to come back again. Pura Vida, great food, great vibes, great people. Thank you Luis!

Pura Vida brings a fun Miami vibe to Malibu with a menu that's full of fresh, healthy options. One…read moreof the biggest draws for me is that they don't use seed oils, which is surprisingly hard to find and a huge plus. This isn't a traditional full-service restaurant--you order at the counter, find a seat, and your food is brought to you. It's casual, easy, and fits the atmosphere perfectly. I had the Spicy Tuna Bowl which was absolutely fantastic and the Avocado Smash was just as good. If you're looking for a healthy meal without sacrificing flavor Pura Vida is definitely worth a visit.

We split the shrimp tempura roll burrito and added tuna, and it was incredible. The fish-to-rice ratio was perfect--something a lot of places get wrong. The fish was fresh, the flavors were balanced, and the dipping sauces took it to another level. It's definitely a little pricey, but the quality makes it worth it. The portions are generous too--one burrito was more than enough for two people to share. If you're a sushi burrito fan, this place is a must-try. I'm a huge fan and will definitely be back!

First of all, when my husband and I decided to come here after a Solstice Canyon hike, I thought on…read morefirst glance that this was a lil BBQ spot haha (the chef/owner's name is Howdy -- I noticed the apostrophe afterwards)! After seeing the menu and reading the reviews online, we saw that this was a wonderful fusion place with the best reviews -- Yelp didn't let us down! I ordered the chicken teriyaki and subbed sushi rice for salad (the chef paired it with the most amazing seaweed salad), and my husband ordered the salmon bowl and subbed sushi rice for mixed greens as well. The salmon was soft, melted in your mouth and truly on par with the salmon I had in Japan!! The chicken was delicious as well - and the veggies paired with it in the bowl were really tasty. The seating area could use a bit more work, as I felt like the food felt authentic and a hidden gem but the prices for the dishes were on par with that of a sit-down restaurant! You order at the front and pay first, then a server brings the food to your table (if you decide to sit there). We came on Fourth of July for a little bday lunch - and I'm so happy I got to spend my birthday trying out another great restaurant! Will definitely be back and/or check out the Agoura Hills location!

Our experience at Café Luxxe was completely unacceptable…read more The manager on duty should not be in a customer-facing leadership position. While my wife was in the restroom, he began yelling at her through the bathroom door. She repeatedly told him she was in the restroom and asked for a moment of privacy, yet he continued to berate her instead of simply leaving her alone. When I stepped in and said, "She's in the restroom, please give her some privacy," he immediately turned his attention toward me, raised his voice, and continued escalating the confrontation. Rather than de-escalating the situation--as any competent manager should--he became increasingly aggressive and even threatened to call the police. At no point did this manager attempt to resolve the situation professionally. Instead, he repeatedly yelled at us, behaved in an intimidating manner, and turned what should have been a simple interaction into an extremely hostile experience. This was, without question, the worst experience I've ever had at a Café Lux location. No customer should ever be verbally confronted, harassed, or intimidated by a manager, especially when one of them is simply trying to use the restroom. Because of this incident, I will never spend another dollar at Café Luxxe. Management should take this complaint seriously and thoroughly investigate the conduct of the manager on duty.

Beach day + Malibu Seafood has become a tradition for me…read more A quick heads-up before you go: be patient. Parking can be tight, the line usually wraps around the shack, and everyone is hungry. But don't let that scare you off--the food is absolutely worth the wait. I've been here three times now, and one thing has never changed: the 3-piece fried fish and fries is mandatory. The portions are huge, and I'm calling it now... the best fish and chips in Los Angeles. The fish is unbelievably crispy on the outside, perfectly flaky on the inside, and fried exactly the way it should be. I used to order the fried seafood combo, which comes with fish, shrimp, scallops, and calamari. Everything is good, but the fish and shrimp are the stars, so now I just order the fish and chips with fried shrimp à la carte. One item that deserves way more attention on Yelp is the ceviche. It's ridiculously fresh, loaded with flavor, and served with crispy fried tortilla chips. Honestly, I'd order it every visit. The clam chowder is good too, but the ceviche steals the spotlight. The lobster roll is another surprise. I love Broad Street Oyster Company's lobster roll, but it's over almost as soon as it starts. Malibu Seafood's version is much more generous while still being packed with fresh lobster. Don't sleep on the steamed mussels either. Order a pound for the table and make sure you save the bread for the broth. That broth alone is worth coming back for. I always finish it off with one of their fresh-squeezed lemonades--the perfect pairing after a day at the beach. Seating can take a little patience too, but that's part of the experience. Grab a table overlooking the ocean and PCH if you can. Fresh seafood, ocean breeze, and flip-flops still covered in sand... that's Malibu done right. No reservations. No fancy dress code. Just outstanding seafood in one of the best casual beachside spots around. I'll keep coming back.

Mmmm....for the fish and chips, clam chowder, and fried oyster sandwich. As it was 5 years ago,…read moreeverything was fire. Delicious. Batter on the fish and the fish was still so good. I liked the creaminess of the chowder. A little different than clam chowder from other places but a good version. Only needed a cup to fill me up after my fish and chips. Enough seating near sunset on a Sat night. Another couple brought a tablecloth and their own bottle of wine to share. Going to do that next time!
