Guidebook for Malibu
Food Scene
It has a vibrant scene right on the water and incredible food and drinks! It can be difficult to get a reservation, so if they're booked, go early, like 4 pm and put your name on the list and have a drink at the bar while you wait. Very pricey, but worth it.

Great boho-chic atmosphere, games and cool music. A couple of my favorite items off of their Mexican food menu include the Surf & Turf Burrito and Branzino Fish Tacos. The staff and management are awesome and they make you want to come back again and again. Call 424-235-2595 for reservations and thecliffdiver.com for menu/more information.

This isn't a mall, just a really cool collection of shops and restaurants in Venice. My favorite place for lunch/dinner is Gjelina -- some of the best food anywhere in LA, period! If it's the first Friday of the month during the summer, the stores stay open till 9 pm or later, food trucks are everywhere, and tons of people -- very festive!
