We had a great meal. The octopus was delicious and our drinks were perfect. We really enjoyed our server, yoshi. Definitely recommend this place read more

Saw this place on Yelp and stopped in on our way to the airport in LA. Loved the family vibe. The server, the support, and the manager all worked so well together. Then there was the pepperoni pizza - I told my wife it might have been the perfect pizza. Light and crispy on the outside, but soft and a bit of chew to the inside. Perfectly cooked. Then tried the basque cheesecake made in house. So smooth and creamy and just the right amount of sweetness. The cherry sauce on the plate was a nice light touch, too. read more

The food is superb and the service was excellent the ambiance is elegant yet very warm and comfortable

I came here on a Saturday around 2pm for lunch and my bf and doggy and we all had a wonderful experience! They had valet parking, there was no wait, and they had outdoor seating. Everyone had excellent customer service skills and we will be back because of that!! For food we had the wild mushroom truffle flat bread, burratta salad, and french fries!!! The flatbread was out of this world. It had the perfect crunch!! For drinks we had skinny margaritas and they were super fresh and great!! We ended the lunch with the espresso and being a super coffee maniac, I am very picky with my coffee. V's has my approval. We will be back :) read more

We had a wonderful dinner for 15 old friends on a Friday night, and everything was wonderful. We had pre-ordered an assortment of appetizers which were all delicious - shishito peppers (always good), calamari (crispy and tender), octopus (excellent), meatballs, a mushroom flatbread (really popular). My husband and I shared the seafood linguine w/ assorted seafood in a light pink sauce w/ fresh tomatoes, basil and arugula, and it was amazing. My friend always gets the Spaghetti Bolognese, and it looked great. A couple people got pizza, and had the chance to try some leftovers the next day, and it was really good too. Altogether, a perfect evening with good food, good wine and good friends. read more

This place is incredible. We stopped for lunch and had several appetizers and a sausage pizza. First... the service was amazing. Great friendly staff. The calamari was just right. Crisp and fresh. The portobello fries were something I'd never had before but they were delicious. The pizza was perfect and tasted like something you'd get in Rome. I highly recommend this place! read more

Food was great. I ordered a grouper and pasta dish. Out of this world. Had an ahi tuna starter. No complaints. Fabulous. I highly recommend . Thanks to the service! read more

Made a reservation today and had a phenomenal time. My girlfriend couldn't stop raving how good the food was during her last time and it didn't disappoint. First off, Gustavo was PHENOMENAL as our server and went above and beyond. His enthusiasm and customer service was absolutely infectious. We had some wine, old fashioned and Tito's which set the mood. The mushroom flatbread, the chicken salad and the Sautéed Salmon hit the spot. It was all so delicious! We wanted a very relaxing morning/early lunch in Malibu and V's totally hit the spot. Great food, great customer service and great drinks in a wonderful atmosphere. I can't recommend enough. They have valet parking for $8, but there are various parking garages nearby so don't sweat it about parking. read more

Love this place even though you cant see the water. Surprisingly not busy on a sunny weekend late lunch. Its enjoyable for several reasons. Friendly staff, great tasting food, and you dont get all the tourist that seem to go across the street. Super relaxing atmosphere to actually talk and enjoy a meal. read more

this was such a good place to hit after the beach. the service could've been a little bit better because we received our drinks and food very late. our waiter was very friendly though. The food wasn't anything spectacular, but I do like the ambience. It was very intimate and small, which is what I prefer. read more

There are very few restaurants where I consider myself a "regular" (meaning, that I frequent). The number of restaurants grows smaller still when you remove chains and fast food joints. And that number becomes only one when you consider restaurants over 75 miles from my house. That one restaurant is V's*. V's champions rustic, simple dishes done perfectly. Most of V's menu is straightforward: pizzas, flatbreads, steaks, and pastas. Even the list of ingredients for each dish is rather simple (mushrooms, sauces, types of pasta. etc.). However, each dish is truly transformative and more then the sum of its parts. For example, the mushroom flatbread with truffle oil is probably under ten ingredients in total, but the way they execute it--spreading the mushroom and cheese evenly, putting just a slight char on a few of the pieces of flatbread, and kissing the top with truffle oil--makes a simple dish into an unforgettable dish. What's more surprising than V's food quality are its prices. Despite being in one of the smallest and wealthiest cities in Southern California, the prices range from about $25-55, with most of the popular items being in the $30-40 range. Compared to other restaurants on PCH in Malibu, these price are reasonable, if not cheap! In addition to the food, the drinks and wine selection are both stellar. The spicy margarita is my favorite, and has been the favorite of many who I have taken to V's (likely over 30 people now). Unsurprisingly, the service is just as good as the food and drinks. The waitstaff has largely remained consistent over the years and I see many of the same faces when I return. Likewise, their parking has improved over time with an on-site valet in the evening (that takes cards)! Put simply: V's has everything that a small, coastal restaurant should strive to have: amazing cooking, great drinks, and friendly staff. If only they could move 70 miles closer to my house! *This paragraph is purely informational and personal and holds no real place in the review: I originally went to V's years ago for a work event, returned the day my wife and I found our wedding venue, again when we paid our deposit on the venue, again for our rehearsal dinner, and now again for our six month anniversary. As such, V's is more than just another great restaurant to me, but an unforgettable part of my history! read more

I work super close to V's and we usually come here for special occasions for lunch. They have very high quality food and such classy vibes. Very beautiful decor as well! I usually get the rigatoni and it's always amazing. The sausage is super fresh and is so complimentary to the pasta. My coworkers usually get the salmon and they love it. Everyone who works there is super nice and friendly. I always look forward to coming here for lunch! read more

Good food, no crappy ingredients or oils and a friendly staff. Consistently good and V (Vassil) is usually there to say hello

It's about time I write a review on this place--it has been a go-to for us for the last few years. This is a true locals restaurant, it feels like you're in someone's living room, and even when it's busy it feels really intimate. The food is delicious. The food is really solid--I don't think there's anything on the menu we don't like although we gravitate toward the chopped salad, fried mushrooms, skirt steak and short ribs. The salmon is also really good, and the pizza. Try it, you'll like it. read more

Their ossobuco was delicious- best I've ever had! And service is gracious and perfect.

I just want to say this is one of my absolute favorite restaurants. My husband and I love coming here after hiking topanga canyon. The food is delicious! I always order the spaghetti bolognese and it's consistently perfect. My husband gets the fish which is better than any seafood we get in Pasadena. The salads are very fresh, the pizzas are solid and the desserts are a must. The ambiance is relaxing and romantic. We've had the same waitress multiple times and I'm kicking myself for not getting her name... she is the sweetest woman. The owner is very warm and gracious. 10/10 would recommend! read more

V's has great food and service. They have a nice variety of entrees and appetizers for the table to share. We were a group of seven, but we still received our food quickly and correctly. I would definitely go again! read more

Organic Spinach Ricotta / Mozzarella / Parmesan I added garlic to it and it was perfection. Pizza is big enough for 2 people or 3 of your lighter eaters. I forgot to take a picture before I took my first bite so excuse the bitten piece lol. Extremely friendly staff and management! You can tell they care about the Resturant and it's guest. read more

This place is delicious and easy to walk into on a Sunday (it was surprisingly difficult to find a dinner reservation anywhere else). So happy we got to eat here. The staff were lovely and the food was no different. I got the bolognese which apparently Gordon Ramsey orders every time he eats here. The sauce was rich with flavor, this was maybe the best bolognese I've ever had! I also tried the seafood risotto which was also to die for. The seafood tasted so fresh and delicious. This place will not disappoint you! read more

Me and my husband came to celebrate our anniversary here on New Year's Eve. Made a reservation a couple days prior and there was no issue like other near by places. We arrived a little before our reserved time and was pleasantly greeted and seated right away. The place has a romantic, cozy vibe and was the perfect place for us to celebrate. I ordered the short ribs with vegetable risotto and my husband got the sausage pizza and portobello fries. The food was DELICIOUS! Service was top notch. Overall, we'll deserving of 5 stars. Thank you for a fantastic evening, V's! read more

Like most restaurants in Malibu, you are definitely paying a premium. I'd say V's is on the more reasonable side for the area, but it is still expensive. The ambiance is nice and interior has a dark, upscale, relaxed feel. Gustavo did a great job taking care of us. For appetizers we had the chopped salad, the calamari, and the truffle mac n cheese. I thought the chopped salad was the best thing we had all night. The other two were fine, but pretty standard takes on each dish. For entree I had the spaghetti bolognese which I thought was solid. It had a nice flavor but was pretty simple as it was meat, pasta, and some vegetable garnish. My GF got the stuffed shells, which I thought were kind of overpriced. I also tried the skirt steak and I thought it was alright. For dessert we got the berry crumble, which was really delicious. All in all a solid experience in an upscale area. read more

I keep asking myself why we haven't tried this place sooner. It has a super cool look from the curb. I've driven by 1000 times. I've dined across the street and next-door repeatedly. But for some reason V's just escaped me and I am very regretful about that because it's truly a gem. I love the interior the bar is long and narrow. We didn't end up eating at the bar because we were a party of three and we had a lovely seat and table that had extremely comfortable chairs. That seems like an odd Observation but I find comfortable chairs at restaurants are not a given. It kind of has a country club feel or perhaps a golf course restaurant feel to it. Our server was super bubbly and very attentive. She gave wonderful descriptions of the specials which was helpful. We ordered a ton of food and frankly I can't even recall at all because we were also engrossed in a really great conversation with a friend we hadn't seen for a while due to Covid. But this much I know - we will certainly be back. The food really surprised me and it was really delicious. The men Subsequently ordered two desserts and raved about both of them. We had a great night here and I really wish we had given them a shot sooner read more

Hands down amazing! This is my first time dining in Malibu and it will not be my last. Service was amazing. The owner was even there to greet us upon arrival. The tables were spread out more than 6ft. We felt very comfortable while dining. It was a little windy and they had two heaters over us to keep us nice and toasty. We had the butternut squash soup and the Steak Special with a vegetable risotto. The food was delicious. We will definitely be back. I never leave reviews but everyone needs to know about this one! read more

My husband and I ate at V's last night for the first time. We were actually on our way to a different restaurant, but V's caught our attention, so we pulled over to look them up and their menu sounded delicious, so we couldn't help ourselves. We also appreciated that their website had COVID info that automatically pops up at the bottom of each page, which made us feel more comfortable. The whole experience from start to finish was excellent. They were very polite and accommodating when we called to see if they had a table available, since we had decided to go at the last minute. We were seated right away when we arrived and the staff were wearing both masks and face shields. We also had our dog with us, and the staff brought her some water within minutes of us being seated. Our waitress, Kaitlin, was very kind and helpful throughout the meal and her top notch service made our dinner that much more enjoyable. Last but certainly not least, the food was absolutely phenomenal. There was not one thing that we ate that was even just "good." Our favorite was the truffle mac and cheese. I think it was the best mac and cheese I've ever had! We also ordered squash and carrot soup, eggplant parmesan, portobello fries, margherita pizza, lamb chops, and chocolate espresso creme brûlée. We recommend all of it! V's truly has it all- safety measures in place, friendly service (for people and four-legged-friends alike), and VERY tasty food. We will definitely be back for more. Thank you again, V's and Kaitlin for a wonderful dining experience! read more

Great Italian food, calm setting. They treat you like regulars ( in a good way). Pizza is a stand out. Good cocktails too

Nothing to complain about here. Good service Good pizza Good soup I like the name too. Whether your name is Victor, Val, or Von, you feel like V's is your spot! read more

Awesome location; easy to find and plenty of parking options. The menu had a great selection of starters, entrees and drinks. We had a pasta, seafood and steak dish. I did not care much for my skirt steak, it was very chewy, which reminded me of why I am slowly moving more to vegetarianism. Dessert was amazing, we shared the special, I believe it was a cherry bombola. The waiter was very good; attentive and friendly. I would definitely go back, just not for the steak. read more
