I hope this restaurant makes it.6/10/2013 12:00:00 AMgreat mexican in Malibu!Authentic high-end mexican food in an intimate setting with outstanding service and phenomenal specialty margaritas.
The chips are fresh and bursting with flavor.5/25/2013 12:00:00 AMgreat food and even better serviceFor appetizer we had the shrimp ceviche and corn tamales. The ceviche had a twist to it with some green olives. very different but good. I enjoyed the sweet corn tamales even more so. I had the duck in a mole sauce with pineapple and plantains, very tasty but was a lil cold but still good. The margaritas were awesome and the Michelada was good and spicy. We had the churros for dessert and I was slightly disappointed since they were way too crunchy and hard. It was a friend's birthday and they forgot and both the waiter and Manager apologized and gave us a round of drinks. That's awesome customer service. Overall was a great experience and I will go back!5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat taste and colorful!I was surprise for the presentation and creativity, Nice place and excellent food!5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMNew Mexico in MalibuFrom the intricately designed floor and hand painted wall tiles, to the impeccably dressed and coiffed service team, La Costa Mission spares no detail in providing the most authentic and refined New Mexican dining experience available outside the original "Sunshine State". In an industry that has in many cases sacrificed one for the other, refined design or quality service, La Costa Mission offers a dining experience few others are capable of today. Service in this case graciously compliments the well manicured design, and by the time the food arrives, it is as though the main attraction overwhelms the remaining senses! Ordering the simplest dish on the menu, Tacos al carbon, demonstrates once again superior quality in every aspect.5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMNice surprise!Found this restaurant on Yelp. Looking for a nice Mexican place in Malibu and this was it! Parking is great, large lot, park yourself.None of that valet parking that charge you to park 5 feet away. Food was not your typical Mexican, much more authentic. Everything was delicious. We sat at a large table towards the back next to the flaming fireplace. All in all a great experience. Just one suggestion, cook the over easy eggs a little less. Other than that, great!5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMAuthentic Cuisine, warm &Authentic Cuisine, warm & welcoming service, easy to make changes per my no dairy and no gluten regime...a must-do place to go.4/29/2013 12:00:00 AMOur server, May, was veryOur server, May, was very friendly, attentive and helpful.

We took my mother there for her birthday and it was fantastic. The sauces in all of our meals had such great depth that simple chicken and meatballs became phenomenal. My mom, the birthday girl, upgraded her carne asade to the porter house special of the evening and it was the main event; we all ended up eating some of it! We will definately be going back for more!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AM
