Paradise Cove Beach Cafe is a delightful treat for visitors and residents of Malibu. Located at the beautiful Paradise Cove Pier, they offer breathtaking views, incredible service, delicious food and a casual atmosphere.

A reservation at the Paradise Cove Beach Cafe does not hold you a table but puts your party on a priority waitlist. Guests with reservations could potentially wait up to 1 hour with the reservation, depending on how busy it is. Reservations may check-in 20 minutes before their reservation time so we can start preparing your table. In the meantime guests may enjoy the beach and get some drinks and appetizers from our to-go shop. We appreciate your patience and understanding during these strange times.

    We celebrated a birthday with lunch on the beach! The sound of the waves, the sight of birds flying over, the cool air, the smell of the ocean and the delicious taste of the food led us to an exhilarating experience! The complimentary dessert was the perfect way to end our meal joyfully!

    It is more a tourist trap than a great place to go to for lunch or dinner now sadly. Overpriced for what it is. I remember it being better but that’s lots of places now.

    I love this place because of the location and the sand seating and the nachos….unfortunately every time we dine here the service isn’t good :( I still come because it’s a cool spot but it is kinda a bummer that the service doesn’t match.

    Beautiful day in Malibu. Great food, very good service, friendly server. Excellent view beachside. A bit expensive. Well worth our yearly visit.
