Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Malibu

The best food I’ve had in my entire life. The staff is always so kind and friendly. I can’t wait to come back. Thank you for the best birthday!

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!

Thank you Moonshadows for a great dinner night. Everything was amazing. All your staff were great, the food was delicious, and of course the ambiance was amazing. Watching the sunset was an additional bonus.

Our first visit to this iconic restaurant was excellent. We loved the Rocket Salad starter and were blown away by our main course, the sautéd mac nut and herb crusted fresh fish (Halibut) - delicious! Our server, Ally, was fabulous. For dessert, she recommended the Hula Pie - holy moly that was amazing! We visited on a weekday night at 6pm in mid-Nov and the place was not crowded at all. We self-parked but were still charged $10, the only disappointment of the evening.

My first time here. Beautiful restaurant. Very inviting. Great ambiance. Staff is extremely friendly and very efficient. Food was outstanding and reasonably priced. Out waiter was Zack and he was great! We are coming back in December for our Christmas celebration. So glad my daughter recommended this restaurant! She also likes coming here.
