Duke’s is a bit of a tourist trap and a complete nightmare to get to if you live anywhere other than Malibu. But an unbeatable view of the ocean at sunset is enough to convince most people to brave the traffic. The food is fine, and a bit expensive, but you stopped reading at “unbeatable view of the ocean at sunset”.
The best Malibu restaurants, according to us.
All the cheap seafood and cheap drinks you need along the PCH in Malibu.
Malibu Seafood is a tiny shack on PCH that’s home to some of the best seafood on the coast.
Malibu Farm Cafe has simple, crowd-pleasing food at the end of Malibu pier, and is perfect for entertaining your third cousin when he’s in town.
Malibu Wines is definitely a scene, but with plenty of wine and snacks with friends, it’s always one we can get behind.
Casa Escobar serves decent Mexican food in a friendly atmosphere right on PCH.
Cafe Habana is more expensive than other Mexican restaurants in Malibu, but those other restaurants don’t have this patio situation.
