Malibu's Burgers - Oakland

Facebook feed said today that being a vegan being part of the world's biggest family and I am glad to share the vegan family experience with y'alls. They will also share restaurant space with Fungi Foods so we can indulge in deep fried battered mushroom items that most people aren't going to make at home with all the setup involved. I'm sitting outside. I have to try a shake next time I come here. I should venture out and get other items. I really like the La Lulu chick'n sandwich. The fries are crinkle fries. Come on 6% of the population. Forgive my bites in the photos. I wanted to show a realistic side view of the chick'n sandwich.

100% vegan burger shop in Oakland with plenty of indoor seating. As a vegan, I'm so glad that this place exists! It's situated in a nice, upscale-feeling neighborhood that's well-lit and busy at night. I got a double Ghost Town burger and a cookies and creme shake on the side. The burger tasted good, but mine was missing the onion rings, which I honestly felt a small pang of disappointment about (since I specifically came here to see the novelty of an an extremely stacked burger), but it's also a bit on me since I was too socially awkward to ask the server about it. Nevertheless the burger was good and filling. Also the cookies and creme shake was excellent! The size is smallish but the quality is great. Would definitely come back again for the shakes! For dine-in, the tray doesn't come with liner - so maybe line it with napkins and get utensils before eating, since the large burgers can get messy and fall apart near the end.

Got a chicken sandwich and fries. Sandwich was good, no complaints, but this is a piss poor amount of fries. This was my first time ordering from them, and I've always heard good things, but I'll take this as a lesson to make food at home.

4 stars bc it's nice that it's an all vegan burger place, the fries and ube milkshake(with Oreo crumble) were really yummy! The burger was my least favorite, I think the sauce and/or the cheese on the burger I got was a bit too tangy and the burger overall was wet and could use more seasoning(salt, pepper,garlic powder, onion powder...). Not my best vegan burger, perhaps I will try their other menu options. Will def be back for the VEGANNN ube shake!!!

Definitely a great spot for a vegan burger. I got the patty melt and hella hella fry’s both super solid I’ll be back.

Malibu is in my top 5 vegan restaurants of all time! The food is simple yet unique and has a signature flavor. Darren and his mom Lulu are very cool people too! Hope they reopen a location in Marin where I work, I would be a weekly customer!!

One of the best burgers I’ve ever had (and I’m not even vegan!). I think I would choose this over the other places that I’ve eaten at any day. Worth the drive! Didn’t take pictures because I took one bite and ate the rest so quickly that I forgot about the picture! Would 10/10 recommended to everyone!

One of the best burgers ever, always consistent quality, and delicious. Get the hella fries, and a black vanilla milkshake for the perfect combo

3.5 stars - Oakland Location let me talk about potatoes. I love potatoes. and I don't mean like some regular person who sees a potato at the store and goes mehh maybe. I say yes to potatoes. every time. I LOVE POTATOES. hard potato? soft potato? mashed potato? i'm in. invited to the cookout and no potato? i'm OUT. if man ever made potato protein, I would be the first in line so when I asked for a 2 fry order and got home to see only 1 fry order... you know I was devastated. upset, crying even. Tried to hide it from my cat but she knew.. she knew. my only hope is that I lock myself in my own kitchen and make an ode to the lost order of potato from malibus burgers at 7:02pm on a cold sunday night in the town. that or a refund. but a refund wouldn't justify. I want to walk in there and have them know I am potato king, and be greeted one time with my missing potato order. I want them to know my yearning. that and the vegan bacon (and pickles requested) was missing on the needy meaty and still needed more meaty but that's another story. would like to see yall thrive here as well as grant me the potato king crown, that is my wish

This place flat out rules. For what it's worth, I'm neither vegetarian nor vegan. Malibu's goes toe-to-toe with any non-vegan burger shop in the Bay. The loaded fries are devastating, and the shakes also are great. Also the owner is super friendly and cool. Give these guys all your money.

I'm so glad they've reopened in this new location! I am not vegan but I love a good vegan meal. The patty melt is delicious and I 1000% recommend getting garlic tots !!!! My friends ordered the cheesesteak with bacon and the milkshake and both enjoyed their food. It's fresh to order, which is something that I always appreciate. The establishment was clean and the customer service was great.

My daughter and I have followed Malibu's Burgers on Instagram ever since they closed their doors on their previous Oakland site. We have waited patiently for their return to Oakland. Last weekend, after her dance practice, we finally had our favorite burgers. I ordered a Tasha Burger with Hella Hella Fries while my daughter opted for a La Lulu chicken burger with Stadium Fries. We waited along with another pair of customers in the open modern seating area. We were thrilled when our compostable tray made its way to our table after a short wait. Heavenly! Nothing beats Malibu's for vegan goodness. I made a point of telling our hostess/owner how grateful we are that they are back in the Town. We will absolutely be coming through. Sundays offer free street parking so we nabbed a perfect spot down the street.

I'm really trying to like this place, but they have no consistently. I just ordered hella hella fries. I got stadium fries. I asked for the hella hella fries. The menu says cheese, sauce, and grilled onions are in them. I got no grilled onions. I ordered a patty melt the other week and they had no sour dough-- and the left the grilled onions off that. I LOVE grilled onions! Why have them on the menu if you never add them!!?!?!?!

Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed with my experience. My order was given to the wrong customer, which suggests that the server or manager, Ray, didn't double-check the order numbers. While they made a new order to attempt to fix the mistake, the resolution felt a bit rushed and sloppy. The waitress Liz wasn't unfriendly, but her demeanor didn't come across as warm or welcoming--there just wasn't much of an inviting energy. Maybe it was me, but I didn't feel like a valued customer. The food also didn't have the same quality or care as the location on Piedmont. With all that in mind, I don't think I'll be returning.

Hands down my favorite burger in Oakland. Highly recommend the classic Malibus burger

This is the best vegan burger that I've ever had. They have other options, including the milkshakes.

Yay! They are back in Oakland. Oh how we missed them. So happy the gluten free buns are back too. There is just no other place that does a vegan burger better.

Best veggie burgers served by the friendliest people!! I haven't been to the new location yet but I remember when they were in the Piedmont Ave area and I'm still thinking about the yummy food
