What People Are Saying About Guido's

In Short – Both locations, in Santa Monica and Malibu, have an authentic early '50s vibe that almost convinces diners that Frank and Dean are still knocking back martinis in the corner booth. Mood lighting, vintage Italian posters and dark wood enhance the scene. The Caesar salad is prepared tableside, and the fettucine with roasted veal is served in a beef meat sauce. Handmade ravioli--in tomato sauce and stuffed with spinach and ricotta--and the veal alla Milanese are other choices.

Great Italian, Old Ambience
by kiercemartin at Citysearch
This is a great little place tucked back into the corner of the Malibu Country Mart. If you go with a big group or on a weekend, definitely make reservations. The pasta is pretty great, as good or better than any Italian place in the area. The tortellini there is definitely my favorite. It definitely feels like a place you would see some old retired Malibu elite. But for all that, it's not my favorite Italian place in the area, something about the feel of the restaurant is a little off to me. I don't know why it just kind of feels like Luby's or something when you're in there. This is probably just me, and doesn't change the fact that the food is great. Just a weird feeling I've had there. Service is still great, and other truthfully nothing really to complain about.

Love the Osso Buco
by MaryLynnMartin at Citysearch
Guido's is another one of those great restaurants in Malibu that make you feel right at home. They always try to accomodate you when they can, reservations recommended, and the atmosphere is open and friendly. The food is wonderful, and I love the Osso Buco. I think the chef is great with sauces, so any of the specials are usually amazing. The prices are pretty steep, but well worth it. We just love Guidos. No parking problems, and before dinner, take a walk through the pet store....
- Pros: Great service and the chef is amazing!

Best Tortellini I've Ever Had
by burnsinator at Citysearch
Best tortellini I've ever had...hands down. Probably the best lasagna I've ever had, as well.
Their strength is pasta...so don't even bother with the meats. This place's pasta is absolutely unbeatable.
- Pros: Best Pasta Ever
- Cons: Prices go up at dinner; somewhat hard to find location
