Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Malibu

Elephante was the ideal setting today for a table outside in the sun facing the Pacific Ocean. Staff were welcoming, professional , and knowledgeable about the menu choices. So many tempting menu items. The Shrimp Appetizer was perfectly grilled with a lively, spicy sauce. DELISH! Enjoyed the pizza with Pork, Proscuito, and Honey. Thin crust with lots of flavors. The Bloody Mary came with attractive garnishes and the Arnold Palmers were expertly mixed. Tiramisu was very fresh and tasty. All in all a PERFECTO lunch. Can't wait to return.

Beautiful setting. Great food, well presented. We ate off the brunch menu. The shakshuka was really good. Great views of the ocean.

This was our first time to Gjelina and we will certainly be back. The food is simply delicious and beautiful. We went off the recommendations from our server Lance who was charming and knowledgeable. We started with the Kombucha Squash, then we had the Mushroom Pizza which comes with dried oregano from Spain (sooo good) and finished with the Warm Date Cake which had a whiskey carmel sauce and Ginger Ice Cream. Nothing disappointed! Loved that Justin, the host, would walk by and give me a thumbs up with a smile to check and see if everthing was good. Really appreciated both Lance and Justin. Thanks!

The service was great, the food was good, as well as the view. The room, however, is nothing special; it is a multi-purpose room which happens to serve as a tea room for the occasion. There is unfortunately nothing in the design of the room which enhances the Garden Tea experience. To be truly successful, the Garden Tea needs its own space.

Ricky made our experience at Calabra truly unforgettable! From the moment we sat down, his friendly and genuine demeanor gave us a warm, local vibe that made us feel right at home. He went above and beyond by recommending incredible cocktails tailored to our preferences and even crafting them to perfection himself. Ricky's smile never left his face, and his generous attention to detail elevated our dining experience. Combine his stellar service with Calabra's amazing Mediterranean food, and it was an evening to remember. Thank you, Ricky - you're a gem!
