THE SUNSET

WHERE: The Sunset Restaurant on Westward Beach, Malibu, CA.

I have to say, I went into this restaurant experience thinking it was going to be terrible.  In my not so recent visits, I have found the food mediocre and the presence of Malibu cougars/locals not so appealing.  But tonight was different. This review is based on tonight.  It is amazing how the BEST FRIENDS, great service and a better choice in food makes all the difference.  We had an attentive server, who dealt with 3 picky moms, 6 kids and a broken glass by a child (of course, mine) with such elegance, it made our night easy, fun and light!

The other small detail… we sat in the lounge, where every item is $5 from 5-8 Monday through Friday!

MOTHER SAYS:

I have to say, tonight I enjoyed the wine and picked off the kids food, so I sampled a bit of everything except the pork sliders (Char ordered), because I don’t eat pig…

Of everything I tried, I enjoyed the baby calamari the most.  Charlotte was right, the regular calamari were below average (Char hated), but the babies (Char loved) were delicious, and dipped in the mildly spicy marinara sauce were perfect to nibble on with my 5 dollar chardonnay.

DAUGHTER SAYS:

I am still hungry, this is just chicken on a stick!  The pork sandwich (pulled pork slider) is soooo good, I love it! I don’t like the calamari, but the little ones are good.

OVERALL RATING:

LOCATION/AMBIANCE: 8 out of 10- beachfront in Malibu… but crowd is not my favorite.

SERVICE: 9 out of 10- 6 kids in the lounge and we never waited for anything!

FOOD: 6 out of 10- we are picky…

OVERALL:  7 out of 10- not exciting, but for the $5 menu it is fun, easy and great value.  Take your kids, enjoy the view and stick to fries and wine.
