Moonshadows Malibu Reviews from The Last Year
Loved the view and the food.
Our waitress, Camila, was amazing. She recommended the best things on the menu, the Chilean seabass and chocolate cake were highlights.

The valet are racist saying "leave a tip, don't be like the Asians" and stole $250 glasses out of my glove box

This was my 2nd time eating at Moonshadows and again, it did not disappoint! We made a reservation; but needed to move up the time after coming from the Malibu Hike and they were able to accommodate us with ease. Upon arrival we were set right away. We were a party of party of 5 and had a beautiful view of the ocean. We ordered a variety of plates from the sea bass to the filet. Everyone was happy with their meal, except my friend that ordered the filet. It did look a bit dry; but again...this is a seafood spot, not a steakhouse. Depending on your seating location, the sun may be in your face; but if you're solar-powered like myself...it's perfect. Parking is Valet ONLY, so prepare for that! There is no lot and PCH is nuts so drive cautiously. I would definitely return
Amanda take care us she is so sweet beautiful.
and nice here Food are so good Service are so excellent lol. Will be back for sure
James is great.
Awesome food and great view. Super busy and he still took care of us.
Seafood and the service was great.
Waitress went above and beyond to make sure everything went well. Unfortunately If i do find myself back there i will not be ordering any steak again. Its just not good.
Great way to get out of the heat of the valley.
Our server James was top-notch!!! Everything was great besides the drink. The bartender needs to practice making cocktails. Would recommend it to anyone!
This was my second visit to Moonshadows, and unfortunately,
This was my second visit to Moonshadows, and unfortunately, it will most likely be my last. I had an incredibly frustrating experience due to an issue with their server. My waitress charged my credit card twice and then blamed American Express, claiming my card had declined. To make matters worse, she identified us out to another table, telling them that American Express cards were declining. I immediately contacted American Express, who confirmed that they had not declined any charges. It turned out to be an issue on Moonshadows' end. The most disappointing part of the experience was the lack of accountability. The waitress offered every excuse imaginable but never once apologized for the misinformation or the embarrassment caused by falsely claiming my card had been declined. Customer service at Moonshadows was severely lacking, and this experience has left a bad taste in my mouth. I expected more from a place that prides itself on a great dining experience.

Moonshadows exceeded all my expectations! The food was absolutely outstanding. I highly recommend trying the soufflé for dessert - it was divine! The service was impeccable, with attentive and friendly staff who made our dining experience unforgettable. A special shoutout to the valet service, which was top-notch and ensured everything went smoothly from the moment we arrived. I can't wait to come back!

Iconic Dining Destination
There is not much I can write about this place that has not already been written. Except that it is a unique experience to each visitor. We had a spacious booth on a gorgeous Southern California summer evening with a fun and engaging waiter who knew the menu well. Everything came out perfectly and timely. Felt as if we were dining a boat. We could see that everyone around us was having a good time and happy to be there. Easy to understand why.
Great Restaurant in Mañibu
We really enjoyed the food and the view from this great restaurant in Malibu. The service is good, the food is delicious and watching the waves break was fantastic. Try to make a reservation ahead of time to get a table either next to the window inside or by the veranda on the terrace. Sit back and enjoy the view while sipping a cocktail or having some food.
We came the first night and enjoyed it so much. We had dinner at Moonshadows every night that we were in Malibu. We requ
Moon shadows is a perfect place to have dinner and look at the ocean and enjoy everything that Malibu has to offer. Ask for Charles he is the best waiter there and he will make your experience perfection.
SCAM
This place is running a scam on multiple levels. I had a negative encounter with the hostess and I was also surprised by their "valet service". My friend and I decided to split the check, and at the end of the receipt there was the recommended tip percentages and the equivalent dollar amount next to it. I was about to put the recommended dollar amount for 20% tip, but at the last minute we noticed that the recommended dollar amount was double what the actual 20% tip would be for what we spent. We pointed this out to the hostess, as we thought it was important to let the restaurant know that it risked overcharging its patrons. She told us "you should always do your own math" and when we insisted that people referred to the stated tip amounts at the bottom, she asked us "are you from here or from outside?" which I fail to understand what that had to do with anything. A simple "sorry, I'II let the manager know", would have been appreciated. We felt as though we received passive aggressiveness for simply pointing out a mistake. In addition to this, the valet parking situation is ridiculous. When I arrived at the restaurant, I started to park in the small parking lot outside the restaurant, and we were immediately stopped by a valet employee, saying that we needed to use the valet service and that it was $10. I've been to countless restaurants all over the world, and usually, the valet service is offered when there are countless parking spaces or a large garage, where it makes sense for someone else to help park the car for you. At Moonshadows, the valet employee literally parked the car in the space in front of me, and then pulled out in front of me when it was time for me to leave. It seems like they are offering the valet service not to be helpful, but for a money grab.
lets start with the ambiance.
the place was pretty well maintained and cleaned. biggest reason why i came here was because of the ocean. seeing my wife across me and seeing the ocean next to her was just an amazing experience. ok the meats and potatoes lol the food was ok. for appetizers we ordered fried calamari. this was really good especially with the chipotle dipping sauce. so i give that a 10/10. i had the lobster and crab linguine and my wife had the chillean sea bass. the lobster linguine i will give a 5/10. i messed up by asking the waiter for his opinion instead of going with my gut. not enough lobster and the sauce wasnt all that great. the chillean sea bass was really delicious according to my wife. i did get a small bite and yes it was really delicious. they give you some sauce to go with the fish and it was so tasty. they served the sea bass with spinach and black rice, the spinach wasnt washed properly and the black rice was kind of hard and not seasoned. if they serve the sea bass with other side then it would of gotten a 10/10. the fish was delicious but the sides suck so we gave it a 6/10. for desert we ordered apple pies with vanilla ice cream. it was pretty good 9/10. we ended up spending around 150 for these 4 items. you can say you are paying for the view lol. will we go back? of course not but it was one of a time experience. maybe if the food was changed i bit maybe we will go back. i gave it 4 stars because of the view. also the waitresses were really attentive. so two thumbs up to the waitresses. the staff up in the front was really helpful so 10/10 for the staff good job

At Moonshadows, my wife and I enjoyed a delightful dinner, thanks to Camila's exceptional service. Opting for the Lobster Linguine and Cod Fish, Camila effortlessly converted our dinner plans into a three-course meal. Her warm and personable demeanor added a charming touch to the evening. Throughout the meal, Camila remained attentive and ensured our satisfaction with every aspect of the dining experience. For those seeking attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere, Camila at Moonshadows is a standout choice.
Great views, epic location, perfect sunset.
The best spot is on the patio at happy hour. The cocktails are great and the food has improved massively over the many years they have been a Malibu institution. The menu has gotten hip with the times. Don't expect the world's best foodie meal but expect decent bites and a beautiful and nice night out in Malibu. The staff is lovely and as accommodating as doable. The bar is shockingly hip and yet indie. Expect the unexpected :)
Great Scenery, Great food, and great service.
It's a must when eating in Malibu. But if a wait but it's worth it.

Date night at Moonshadows is a great place to have a nice dinner while enjoying the sound of the ocean! The bar is chill and service is top notch. Lots of delicious food items. Lamb chops were on point!
We had a fantastic outdoor waterfront table.
During our meal we were able to see a pod of Dolphins playing fairly close to the coast which was an enjoyable experience
Came to Moonshadows yesterday with my friend and asked to
Came to Moonshadows yesterday with my friend and asked to be seated outside. The server came and we asked for a bottle of wine and 2 appetizers to start. We were outside for an 45- min to an hour and no one came to check on us. At all. We ran out of water and no one came to refill. We even finished the bottle and cleaned our appetizer plates because they were so good and we saw a different server we waved down and they pretended they didn't see us. We decided we were going to leave and ask for the check but no one came to even ask for the check for. We went up to the hostess for the check and moved on from there. What an unfortunate experience for the beautiful scenery and tasty food.
Excellent view of the Sea. Perfect spot for a dinner right after the sunset.
Phenomenal spot just above the beach in Malibu - you feel like you're suspended in the sea. Great view of sunsets. The food was really good - a fusion on Chinese/thai and sea food. And the price was reasonable. Good service. The tables outside for the evening felt too cold, despite the external warmers, as this is on the coast with a lot of wind. But we really really enjoyed the dinner inside on a table by the windows. Highly recommend it.
View nice…food so-so
We had the Maine lobster rolls and would not get again. Lots of bread and celery, hardly any lobster & no melted butter. Sweet potato fries were good. Valet park required $$$
Well prepared food but nothing special.
Service was fantastic - from the host to the service and the bus staff. We sat out on the patio - was very well warmed by the heaters: listening to the waves hittting the shore was wonderful. I live in Ojai and ate here because my nephew lives in Santa Monica. We wanted to take him out for his birthday. The food was good - but not good enough so that I would want to go again. The calamari was tender and prepared well. I had Black Cod - it was good. But frankly, no better than what I make at home. Black Cod is hard to get so whenever I see it, I buy it. They brought a nice birthday panna cotta for our nephew for his bday. I ordered tiramisu and frankly, tasted like a big serving of whipped cream. Very disappointing. If I lived closer, I might go back. But nothing spectacular to bring me there.
Only good for views, food below average
As much as the location is wonderful, my visit here was very disappointing. Very poor menu for those with dietary restrictions (i.e. not a single sandwich for vegetarians, never mind vegans), staff seemed snobbish and not very welcoming (we came in for lunch straight after a nearby hike, in hiking gear), and the beet salad I ordered could barely be called a salad - just a stack of cooked beats, thin layer of cheese on top of the stack and some microgreens. Quite pretty, but should not be served as a salad or a lunch option; I left hungry after paying $80 for two. My husband’s sandwich was ‘nothing to write home about’. Would only recommend this place for those looking for views or wanting to celebrate with a nice glass of wine. Would not recommend to anyone actually wanting to eat a decent meal. Oh, and they charge you $10 for a mandatory valet parking.

Go here every time I'm in Los Angeles. Great service, great staff, fresh perfectly cooked seafood and THE best view
Overraated
The view from the restaurant is absolutely beautiful - this is the key reason to go to Moonshadows! The food is pretty average to be honest, nothing special - we had the spring rolls and beet salad (both were fine) and then the filet mignon (average) and pumpkin ravioli (disgusting). Service was okay, would have expected more for the price we paid. Save your money and just get a cocktail and sit and watch the sea.
Beautiful Views and Great Food!
We had plans to visit PCH and see Point Dume, so we made reservations to have lunch here along the way. We went on a very busy Sunday, not only was this place packed, but getting there from Marina Del Rey was slow-going in all the traffic on PCH too. Once there, we were greeted and seated with a smile and we chose to dine on the deck over-looking the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean just a few feet below. It was a true treat as the view was amazing, but hearing the waves was equally as appealing! The menu for brunch has all the basics for brunch, but also some nice items for lunch as well. We chose their Roasted Organic Red & Yellow Beet Salad with shrimp added and the Miso Glazed Black Cod and both were presented very nicely and tasted excellent! As a “man of color” I can tell you that the service was great during our visit, we weren’t rushed and refills of ice tea was frequent. Additionally, we were treated very nice, as we all the guest interactions we witnessed around us. Highly suggest making reservations and visiting when in the area!
Great experience
Excellent location, great place! food is delicious, the fried calamari, spicy tuna tartare and the grill pork chop yummy!!!and great beach view. Staff is incredible!

Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate |
Yes unfortunately they are finding more and more ways to lock up sellers money. Sell thru rate, refund rate, limiting withdrawal amounts ler day and per month (which for me are the same number which makes no sense). Lot of sellers leaving as you can see from the lifetime sales not really increasing. Most posts on here are frustrated sellers which is not a recipe for success

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
