NouraJuly 19, 2017The Food was good + Fantastic View , Sit near the Window and watch the waves crash .. I really enjoyed the Experience👌🏻
Brent MadisonJuly 4, 2015If you're looking for something a little less formal, then hit the bar on the left side of the restaurant. It's right on the water with great views of the ocean.
Go straight for the bar, it's open seating, no need to wait for a table at the restaurant. Drink Mai Tais, the best in LA. Get the fish tacos and save room for the Hula Pie.
Quickly fell in love with Duke's! My "neighborhood" bar with a great view. I could go on and on about this place but it's crowded enough usually! All the food I have had is great. Bartenders great.- Clean Bay Restaurant ProgramOctober 29, 2013Duke's Malibu is part of the Clean Bay Restaurant Certification Program! They are doing their part to help reduce stormwater pollution in the Santa Monica Bay! To learn more, visit Read more
Sam LickerAugust 10, 2019Always a delicious meal. Try and get a booth by the water. Ahi tacos were out of this world and the Halibut was great!
Jeffrey GilesFebruary 8, 2015This place is gorgeous. Much cleaner than Duke's Waikiki. Dancers were a bice touch. Sunsets are exquisite! Move around to the Ocean Room for the best view though!
Milli ParkusJanuary 7, 2017Scenic views! People friendly restaurant. What a location! Hula pie is a must! It is the same one as the one in Oahu!
Social News NetworkNovember 14, 2013Brought a friend from Texas, she was in AWE. We had wonderful service and delicious meals...but by far her face every time the waved crashed on the windows was the best part ;)
Offbeat L.A.March 21, 2015The history of Duke’s dates back to 1915, when it was a seafood restaurant called the Las Flores Inn. In 1944 it became The Sea Lion Inn. Duke's opened in 1996 after a fire and renovations.
Aubrie AhmadpourJanuary 2, 2021Love the fish tacos and the view is spectacular! It’s a nice family spot and I’ve been coming here with my parents since I was a kid.- E MarFebruary 3, 2016Great views while eating. Order a fresh fish of the day, and choose how to have it prepared. Save room for Hula Pie.
Alexis NelsonOctober 19, 2015I feel like they could have done better with the amazing real estate they have! The outdoor patio offers only a few tables with a decent ocean view - and the interior bar smelled a bit like old fish?!
eric bornemannJuly 15, 2020Food is ok, but it’s really about the views. Get a table by the big windows in Fall and you’ll see dolphins and pelicans go by while you eat.
TaylorOctober 5, 2013Good food (fish tacos, coconut shrimp) deserves spending quality time relaxing looking out into the ocean.
Richard RevillaOctober 11, 2014Great seafood restuarant overlooking the Pacific. Plenty of parking and right across from the Getty Villa. Bar gets packed.
Patrick TaylorJuly 18, 2016Hula Pie, Nachos with Pork, burgers all taste great. Sunday serves brunch till 2 and dinner device begins at 3. Valet about $6.
Jason H.December 26, 2016Hit or miss. The fish sandwich looked great. I ordered the seafood salad and it was a joke of limp lettuce and a few soggy shrimp for $20. Beautiful views though and a very friendly seagull who visits
SeviNovember 2, 2014Great view, comfortable, and cozy place. Heaters at the terrace. You can also enjoy free parking by the road. I really like this place.
Heather SiebensMay 25, 2018Great food, staff, customers, relaxing-awesome view and sound of waves!!!
Stephanie GuerrieriMay 29, 2010The mountain of nachos is the best in the USA - as a nacho connoiseur, I have seen many a bad nachos. Also - go with the lava flow for your first cocktail. Yum!
KellyAugust 18, 2016Famous kitschy spot with a great seaside location. Seating is a bit of a free for all, but service is friendly.
Marcelo ChristianiniFebruary 9, 2020Everything is delicious!!! We ordered the coconut shrimp and grilled fish, recommended!
Molly KentalaMarch 18, 2013Ask for one grilled and one beer battered when you order the fish tacos. They are happy to oblige.
Autumn HerradaAugust 18, 2010The place is rocking! Awesome outdoor deck seating.Had the calamari but it was the guava BBQ burger that was to die for. I haven't had burger that good in a loonnng time.Must go to!
Stephen KoontzOctober 22, 2014Great place to bring out-of-town guests. A fun relaxed environment with delicious bar/dinner options.- Isaac CruzJuly 23, 2016Definitely an enjoyable experience. Good food, good drinks, and the views just cannot be beat
Maria OrlovskaiaSeptember 18, 2017Crab legs is absolutely must-have!!! And nice sunset view if you have table near the window.
Trae HDecember 5, 2013Do yourself a favor - get the prime rib! Apps and service were fantastic! The $4 valet was a joke.
Joana SouzaMay 20, 2014Very good food. Nice view of the ocean. Jorge is the best. Got a delicious ice cream pie for my BDay. :)
Rembert SchofieldMay 27, 2014This was Awesome---again. We had a glass of wine and the fish tacos. A perfect way to start a business trip.
Rachel MercerJuly 12, 2012The Hula Pie is insanely huge (but so very delicious) be prepared to share with the table. Fish tacos are stellar.
JonathanAugust 14, 2013Great ocean views. Valet parking only. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.
Maia WailanaOctober 19, 2013the view is fabulous.. but people come here for the food! summer lingers longer in malibu..
Raul PettorutiJune 11, 2013South Swell Margarita is no good. Mai Tai is good. Wrong Island is very good!
Henrique BrodbeckApril 24, 2015Good food (ask for the crusted yellowfin tuna), warm service, nice view.
Vanity Fair AgendaJanuary 30, 2012Get the Kimo’s Original Hula Pie®. Macadamia nut ice cream served over Oreo cookie crust, hot fudge, whipped cream. Enough said.
Patty FloydDecember 4, 2014We had our corporate holiday party here. The food was delish and view was amazing.
Andrew the bartender is awesome! Here's a picture of him saving a seagul!
Maria HartsteinSeptember 5, 2017Great view!! Cocktails are good but expensive for the small size. Coconut shrimp was good
