Paradise Cove Beach Cafe is a delightful treat for visitors and residents of Malibu. Located at the beautiful Paradise Cove Pier, they offer breathtaking views, incredible service, delicious food and a casual atmosphere.

A reservation at the Paradise Cove Beach Cafe does not hold you a table but puts your party on a priority waitlist. Guests with reservations could potentially wait up to 1 hour with the reservation, depending on how busy it is. Reservations may check-in 20 minutes before their reservation time so we can start preparing your table. In the meantime guests may enjoy the beach and get some drinks and appetizers from our to-go shop. We appreciate your patience and understanding during these strange times.

No mask, no service!
*Masks are required for all guests over the age of 2*

Check out this spot really only for the beach-front views. The service was friendly, but the food was average at best. I got the basic breakfast with eggs, hash browns, and sourdough toast. The food was somewhat cold when it came out and lacked seasoning. Also, there are swarms of seagulls and pigeons when you sit outside trying to steal your scraps. Great oceans views, but too expensive for the quality of food.

The spot is unique, even with rain outside was a great experience. Of course best spot is to sit outside with the sun, ocean and fresh breeze of salty air. The Benedict’s are gorgeous.

Solidly mediocre food and service at best. Great views of course but as is so often the case - a great view is rarely accompanied by five star service, food, or reasonable prices.

The food was OK...There was too much cheap food side dish trying to justify an overpriced main dish. The food total for 3 people was $144.00 + tip ($25.00) =$169.00 Parking added another $15.00 after validation from restaurant....really not worth it considering how cold you get sitting on the sand chairs. View was delightful as usual.

We made a reservation and arrived on time (2 minutes late but we called on the way). We selected inside seats and somehow, we were in the middle of no one served. The first server left after taking our order and the next one (KAT?) never came to us for any help. We had to ask other servers walking by our table from/to outside. I took my guests from Japan and they enjoyed menus. But they did not enjoy the service.

The only good part of this restaurant really is the view. Other than that, I wouldn’t waste your money here… and if you come, it will be wasted here. Yes the portions are bigger, but the quality/ flavor isn’t there. Very mediocre and bland. They should focus on the quality of their recipes rather than crazy portion sizes. For one salad and one burger runs you about $70 dollars. Don’t forget the $15 parking fee to park your own car in a big lot. The only decent part of this restaurant was relatively friendly staff thankfully.

We started out by walking the beach and picking up shells from the rocks that we ate the next night. Then went into the restaurant and had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. Everybody was sharing their food. It was a real nice experience.

Excellent restaurant great food great service beautifully location and the price was decent. We had the hot combo which was too much for just the two of us. My wife had a pineapple drink which she loved I had a cup of clam chowder plenty of clams in every bite. Our waiter was prompt and very friendly. The only thing that put a damper on the event was an older man who when we got up after eating and we’re wandering outside on two separate occasions within a minute informed us we had to get a host to seat us. This was after we already had permission to take our drinks outside. Otherwise a strong 4.5 stars

I don’t typically write reviews but I look at them when booking dinners. Very disappointed with our meal yesterday. Guacamole, zero taste . Burger okay. Never did bring me the mustard I asked for. Pasta not great either. Won’t go back. For 171.00 for the above and 1 Mai tai. complete waste of money (and 10.00 to park)

Had to make a stop here after leaving LA from the Elton John concerts, I had the mahi mahi and my sis got the salmon, everything was amazing! And don't forget to try the mile high chocolate cake...phenomenal! Sat outside in the sand and the views are just amazing! Dolphins out in the water was definitely an added plus! Always try to stop in here when traveling south. Love it here!

Love the outside tables at Paradise Cove. My only complaint is the parking. They now charge $10 on the weekdays even if you are dining at the restaurant. I think if you are dining the parking should be free.

The service was too slow for the restaurant not to be crowded. We ordered the fish & chips and were told it was enough for two people. After seeing these LARGE portions of calamari and other items being served to other patrons we anticipated our order would be the same. It was not!!! The fries were enough for two people but the fish portions were two very small pieces. The price paid was definitely not worth the value. This restaurant is extremely overpriced!!!!

Grossly overpriced for what you get. $5.95 for bread? A salad large enough to feed six people? $15 to self-park? Yes, it's on the beach and the food is good but dinner for two including one rum drink each, splitting a salad, bread and two pieces of salmon shouldn't cost $220 including tip. For that I'll go to Mastro's.
