"Malibu's will open a second location at 819 4th Street in San Rafael in late February or March 2024. The space is the former Caribbean Spices restaurant. There will be Marin-exclusive offerings at the new outpost, but a lot of the core items will jump from the Oakland location to this one in the North Bay." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Returning from the dead is Malibu Burgers, a casual vegan burger stop open for dinner in Uptown Oakland. Aside from the nine burgers on offer, you’ll also find vegan chicken sandwiches and cheesesteaks. Expect to take everything to go." - Ricky Rodriguez
"Malibu’s, the Oakland temple to sumptuous vegan burgers and milkshakes, will close its Piedmont Avenue location on Wednesday, December 27. Owner Darren Preston says the cost to operate such a large space is too high, and he says he hasn’t been fully utilizing the space like a more formal restaurant might." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Darren Criss owns Malibu’s Burgers, a plant-based restaurant in Oakland. Criss says the change could have a big impact on his restaurant. While his Piedmont Avenue burger joint doesn’t charge fees for on-site dining, he does charge a fee anytime food is delivered. He and other restaurants pitch up fees to cover the additional costs associated with using third-party delivery services." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Malibu's Burgers is a popular Bay Area vegan fast food restaurant known for its juicy, thick burgers and all-vegan offerings. Inspired by East Bay vegan classics, the restaurant has become a staple in the community. Despite facing financial challenges, owner Darren Preston is determined to expand and continue serving his unique vegan fast food." - Paolo Bicchieri
