    Clam strips
    Raymond L.

    Service was on point, but I was little disappointed in the food. The serving was plentiful but the clam strips seemed a little chewy and heavy. However the fries were delicious. It has the feel of a beach place and would be fun in season. In the off season with few customers it comes off as a little sad. The utensils are plastic which is something I typically avoid.

    Food is good and reasonable prices. Lots of fried seafood and some blackened or baked. Served promptly and pleasantly by Shay. Neat decor and patrons sign the walls and fish etc hanging from the ceiling and walls. Large portions so come hungry.

    Fried Catfish

    Boy were we lucky....we went off season on a rainy day and got right in!!! First time there and it was clear that this is the place to go if you want seafood!! The food was quality and tasty! The baked beans were the best I ever had! The fried catfish exceptional; hush puppies were moist and flavorful, homemade crap cakes top-notch and even the coleslaw was delicious!! Service was friendly and down to earth! My husband was happy because it was the first place he could get a PBR!!

    Food is great! Service is great... If they're not crowded. Hushpuppies are awesome! They represent the Divine Dining Group very well.

    Blackened Grouper Platter was awesome !!! The tartar sauce and cocktail sauce are also worth the trip.

    This is a nice little seafood joint. A very fun atmosphere with crayons and paper table cloths. Service is a little slow, however.

    Went tonight to the one place I always have to visit when I come to town to visit family…read more This restaurant is so cute, hidden away on Surfside drive you could easily miss it but what a mistake that would be The staff and owner are always so welcoming. They are attentive and very knowledgeable about the menu and can give you good advice on all the amazing food. Tonight they had three amazing specials and I decided to try the lamb. It has to be the best lamb I have ever tasted Cooked by the owner it was five good sized lamb lollipops cooked perfectly and serve with amazing fresh green beans with roasted potato that just melted in your mouth At his suggestion I also got a side of pasta and as he suggested it also went so well with the lamb I have never come and not had an amazing meal and wonderful service if you love good Italian and amazing specials run don't walk to check them out you will not be sorry and I am counting the days till I come back in November

    Visited Malibu while on vacation with friends. I was looking forward to an authentic Italian meal…read morebased on previous reviews. Service was slow and inconsistent. The best part was the owner's visits to the table. He would describe dishes that made you hungry. We ordered (at his recommendation) the eggplant parm, a fish dish and a shrimp scampi. The fish and shrimp were delicious but the eggplant that two of us ordered was not edible. The owner visited at the end of our meal where we shared the bad news about the eggplant dishes. He was very concerned that we had not had a good meal. He offered to cook up something else to make us happy. Of course we refused. He comped both of the eggplant dishes! He didn't have to do that but we appreciated it. Although this place was a disappointment, the owner's enthusiasm and commitment to great service and good food will bring us back for another try.
