The Best Restaurants in Malibu, California | Eater LA

"There is no better weekend decision than pulling off Pacific Coast Highway as signage for Malibu Seafood draws impossibly nearer in the foreground. The seafood shack has delighted hikers, road-trip-weary travelers, and beachgoers since it opened in 1972. Here, find all the seafood stand favorites: deep-fried seafood plates, which, beyond the fish and shrimp standard, features clam strips, squid, and oysters; fish sandwiches topped with vinegary coleslaw; grilled seafood platters with proteins like freshly caught halibut, swordfish, and Ahi tuna served alongside crispy crinkle-cut French fries, steaming rice pilaf, or a butter-slathered baked potato. All can be enjoyed from its tiered patio set-up, which provides ample views of the Pacific Ocean before it." - Eater Staff
