Beautiful Food, Beautiful People

by DeadRoses

I dont eat fried foods, the mahi mahi sandwich was as good as anything I have ever had. I have been eating fresh seafood from the north sea to south east asia and this place is as good as any.

I wont eat coleslaw anywhere else, but there's is the greatest.

Be careful crossing the highway if you park across the street

• Pros: Fresh Fresh Fresh
• Cons: .Be careful crossing over Pacific Coast Highway

Variety of Fresh Fish

by Rozkz

Its in beautiful Malibu , with a cosy atmosphere. outdoor tables also. Loved this place normally it's difficult to find Monkfish. They have it here and its cooked to perfection. I had Mahi Mahi grilled fish sandwich and it was awsome .My husband had the monkfish. They also have giant skin on potatoes fries

and the clam chowder that was to die for.Love this place and when in the area I will be back.

• Pros: Best casual fresh fish Restaurant
• Cons: the rice was okay

Great, Funky, Crazy, Classic Hole-in-the-Wall. Oh, and Good Seafood too

by kiercemartin

This is probably one of the more passed by restaurants that line the Malibu coast, and that probably has something to do with it's sketchy exterior and rough location next to a skeezy motel. But, listen and listen well, this place is really pretty fantastic. Obviously, it's not upscale dining. Nay, it has kept to it's roots when Malibu was just a blip on the map and cows instead of celebs were roaming the seaside cliffs. It's funky, vintage, and one of the best little places around. So, be brave, ignore the sketchy exterior, and try it!

Fun and funky! Just my style.

by DeBorahBeatty

This spot was a great find on our way to a conference up in the mountains. We were starved and we weren't disappointed. I had the shrimp omelet and could not have asked for anything better (except maybe a slightly lower price). There was plenty of delicately seasoned shrimp hiding in a fluffy omelet stuffed with all kinds of my favorite goodies, a tossed salad and rice. We sat outside since it was a gorgeous day. Probably could have used a little stronger hand with the tidying but the atmosphere was fresh and funky and definitely screamed Malibu California to a homesick transplant.

Probably the Worst Fish Restaurant I have ever been to.

by timeforfish

First of all, I have been to places like this all over the country. The difference between this small (non-chain) fish eatery and other is:

1. This restaurant is not clean. (look in the kitchen, patio and on the tables)

2.They can't even make fried fish right

3. The employees are simply rude.

They were great about 10 years ago and the last couple visits have shown how a place could really go downhill. Too bad!!

Don't order the fish tacos!

by south2nd

The fish tacos were basically unseasoned tuna, lettuce and a bit of cheese. They were really unpleasant and bland. The grilled fish looked pretty good. I think tacos are not their thing. I was absolutely starving, and left hungry rather than finish

my tacos.

• Pros: Nice ocean view
• Cons: Food and price

Fresh Fish done right - Casual Self Serve

by satnitediner

For the variety of fresh fish and the great side dishes - I'm never disappointed. You tell them how you like it and what you want with it (love the coleslaw, potatoes and the rice) It's casual, you have to go pick up the dishes and take it back to your table. But it's a friendly, rustic atmosphere with honest prices for fresh fish. Great for lunch or dinner. Dinner during the week is easier - less crowded. Always look forward to their chalk board words for the day. Found both locations pretty consistent.

• Pros: Good Eats in Casual / Rustic Atmosphere
• Cons: Access to Malibu location on busy PCH - into or out of Valet Parking

Best after beach stop

by caligari

Inexpensive fresh seafood, well prepared and wide selection. Low key dive surf shack atmosphere with a cozy fireplace and well worn picnic benches.

• Pros: Great food, great price
• Cons: Those benches are not the most comfortable seating in the world
