In Short
A lively crowd of after-work regulars, area shoppers and laid-back beachgoers kick back in a room awash with bold blue, gold and red colors. Paintings by local artists are mounted on the dining room walls. From white linen tables or at a small bar, patrons fill up on enchiladas stuffed with spinach, beef, chicken or goat cheese, seafood paellas, cheesy quesadillas and house-specialty burritos. A selection of signature cocktails includes Tango-A-Ritas, Tequila Pinks and Cabo-Taxis.

I have to say this, food was pretty awful for the price. I kid you not a reheated frozen mexican food would have been better. Wish we had eaten some place else. Horrible food & service. Obviosly terrible management.

When Casa Escobar - Malibu, burned down a couple of years ago, we felt like we had lost a new friend. But Kathy and Russell Harvey didn't let a few cinders stop them for long. Last year, Casa Escobar reopened her heavy arched doors once again, and the food and the atmosphere are better than ever. Now that the cinema has reopened as well, My husband and I usually stop in before catching a movie; I usually get the Ensalada Del Mar, which is a fresh fish salad on mixed greens, and he orders shrimp enchiladas with mole sauce and a margaritta. Since the fire, the Harvey's remodled the restaurant, and now there's outdoor seating as well, and the atmosphere is upscale and festive. The bar is always busy, especially last Monday night, when they cattered to a lively crowd for Cindo de Mayo. But the best thing about Casa Escobar - Malibu is the service. Kathy and Russell are usually around to stop by your table and greet you, and their staff are always friendly and warm. There's plenty of parking too, so you don't have to worry about a valet ticket. They're open for lunch and dinner, and brunch on Sunday, (but not a buffet, as it was before the fire). However, as far as I'm concerned, at a restaurant like Casa Escobar, ordering fresh from the menu is preferable than getting "all you can eat" from the buffet anyway! So, I say Bravo to the "New and Improved" Casa Escobar - Malibu
