We dined here twice while staying in Malibu for the week. Delicious food and great service. We especially liked the pizza, arugula salad and desserts. The only caution is if you aren't the kind of person who likes to treat dogs like humans. I'm ok with restaurants that allow dogs inside, but at two separate tables, small dogs were sitting on chairs at the tables. One owner allowed the dog to place its paws on the table, and the server did not wash the table when clearing it after. I think we all know how nasty a dog's rear end and paws are, and this is a health concern in my opinion. That's the only thing that prevented a 5-star rating from me.
