DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE Despite eating at 9 they tried to take our payment so they could close up and drink
absolutely shocked and disappointed to see how downhill this place has gone down. Worst service ever
Be the first to ReplyBest. Tacos. Ever.
Had this spot favourited from an article I read and we finally made it to Malibu, so we gave it a try. Nice & casual, fun spot. Very friendly service, manager engaged guests in a genuine manner. The cucumber Margarita , though โฆ ๐ฌSorry, but I can make a better margarita. The mahi mahi tacosโฆ. Best tacos Iโve ever had! The marinade, spices, sauce, spectacular! The shell was not soggy, the insides didnโt fall out when I bit into it, the side of beans were not dry, just perfect! Highly recommend! Donโt expect fine dining, this is just really good, casual in a fun atmosphere.

Good food, strong drinks, great atmosphere. Had the brown rice bowl, amazing!!! Not from the area so a little hard to find!
Be the first to ReplyWorst management ever
Bad experience tonight. Our food took over an hour to come and the manager said "sorry we are short staffed" and he didn't even offer to comp a thing. I wouldn't have accepted because I want to support the restaurant industry and their losses in COVID, but it was really wrong of the management to absorb zero responsibility for how they treated their clients. I'm still very shocked.

Our lunch experience here was good - everyone thought their food was good. The fish tacos were particularly good. Service was fair. I would definitely go back!
Be the first to ReplyFor the dogs
Atmosphere:
Although the restaurant was nearly empty when I arrived around 3 pm on a weekday for lunch, I was given a small table in the main isle and told that all the other seating was reserved for a big wedding party that never appeared. Instead, two more parties with large dogs were seated near me. Three dogs, including a pitbull that lunged and barked at the owner each time he approached, trying to be friendly. This was quite disturbing to other dogless customers who had subsequently been seated nearby. A dog belonging to someone at another table began barking and struggling against it's leash with a determined effort meet the other two dogs. The place began resembling a dog kennel more than a restaurant. Incredibly, the restaurant owner brought out meat from the kitchen to feed one of the dogs that he evidently knew well. Health and safety codes apparently are ignored at this restaurant, along with concerns for other customers who might not enjoy dogs eating with them.
Service: Friendly, but slow, forgetful and clumsy.
Food Quality: An okay but lectin- rich chicken salad, given in a fairly large portion. Havana iced tea included plenty of sugar, which wasn't stated on the menu.
Value: $50 for the salad and ice tea, including an essentially obligatory, palm pilot 20% tip. You be the judge.
Conclusion: There are better choices for dining in Malibu.
Appalling Service
Service was slow, inattentive, and utterly lackluster. We had to ask the hostess to bring us cutlery and had to walk up to the bar to get beverages because the server, who was in no hurry to take our order, never checked back in with us until it was time to pay. The quality of the food itself was uneven. The Cuban and tacos were average, but the chips, which would have been nice to snack on during the long wait, were so stale that none of us could eat even one.

We have been ordering takeout here once a week recently and generally have had a good experience. They've forgotten items on at least one occasion so check your bag before you leave.
However, their estimates of pickup times are wildly inaccurate. I ordered last night (a Saturday) and the email said 15 minutes. I got there right on time and ended up waiting 45 more minutes, nearly till their closing time. So it took an hour to get 2 fish tacos and an order of nachos. The bartender said they were short staffed which the manager overheard and said "no we're not short staffed, there's just too many orders". I saw several people turned away who wanted to order. In the 45 minutes I waited, I saw maybe 7 orders come out so I think the bar tender was telling the truth. One or two orders would come out and then there'd be a 7-10 minute wait and 1-2 more would come out. The manager probably just understaffed the kitchen for a Saturday night to cut down on costs. The manager said the pickup time estimate on their email is an automatically generated 15 minutes and doesn't have any link to the actual wait times. So Best to call ahead on weekends. The food is good, generally fresh tasting although the Nachos looked like they had been sitting there the full 45 minutes I waited, the margaritas are very good. Portions are reasonable, not huge.
Dog friendly, great shady patio, yummy food, and friendly service
Everything my family ordered (cubano, burger, steak and chicken tacos, tortilla soup, guacamole, plantains, cocktails) was delicious. There are 4 spots of parking right in front of the cafe. The service was friendly and attentive. We chose this spot b/c we needed to bring our dog for lunch in Malibu on the weekend. Not only was a water bowl presented, but so were snacks for our puppy. Would go again and try other items.
