The location is the only thing going for this overrated place. After waiting for 10 minutes just to have someone stop by to greet us and take a drink order I went to the restroom which was beyond filthy. That should of... (more)

I went surfing and this restaurant was right by me when I got out of the water. My friend and I went there for lunch. He got the fish tacos and loved them, I got the seafood sampler and lost my mind, it was so good. The... (more)

I don't often review services but this was so appalling I felt compelled. I sent some family members here. There was a piece of metal in one of their meals. After reporting the issue, the manager not only failed to... (more)

Scenario: You eat at a restaurant. You have oysters, shrimp cocktail, clam chowder, & halibut. Yum! right? Well, you go home an hour later and your face is in the toilet because you are throwing it all up. You also have... (more)

The view at Gladstones can't be beat. I do suggest that if you're going to visit, go with a full stomach. The days of fish slapped on the grill and served with lack luster sides are gone and, the food is way over priced and... (more)

This is like so many places all over the U.S. Beach cities are full of these fish barns. This is one of the worst. Don't go expecting good food, service, or drinks. The only thing going for this place is the beach. Oh, be... (more)

Ah, Gladstone's....paradise with good food - and great (and strong) drinks! Try a Mai-Tai, segue into a bowl of the best clam chowder anywhere, maybe a nice fresh piece of salmon and then that Mile-High Chocolate... (more)

One word: location! Fantastic! This place doesn't look like anything special from the road - the flags sort of looked like some sort of ship re-creation; but once inside, you'll find a charming place. The seafood is... (more)

So, yes Gladstone's is kind of a typical place to go in Malibu, especially if you're visiting, or if it's prom night for Malibu High, but it holds that place for a reason. The food actually is good, the fish is always... (more)

I know that seafood restaurants on the beach are infamous for not serving meals that equal the location but this place tops (bottoms) them all. I have lived in Los Angeles for 18 years and have dined at every seafood... (more)

Ate there last night in a party of 9. Great atmosphere, wait staff/service, and scenery! But ... the food was mediocre at best. Everyone in our group had the same comment upon leaving and waiting for our cars at the... (more)

The view was amazing, and the Clam Chowder was the best I ever had. Everything else was O.K. The waiters were fun and the theres really wasn't a long wait to be sitted. The place is expensive for a casual restaurant and... (more)

Gladstone's located at the end of Sunset Blvd down by the ocean is one of my favorite places to take visiting family members. The food is nothing really fantastic...just plain good. But the view and location and the... (more)

I always have a nice time at Gladstones. If you call in advance, you can arrange for a customized item to be put on the paper place mats (e.g. "Happy birthday John Smith") and on the electronic sign in the restaurant.... (more)

The seafood at Gladstone's was just average. I had a broiled seafood combo platter and it was exactly 50/50 - shrimp was not that great, salmon was so dry, swordfish and scallops were both decent. I did like the sides a... (more)

I have been going to gladstone's for well over ten years, but over the past few years the service and food has gotten worse and worse. I recently went with family who was visiting from out of town. We made reservations... (more)

I live in Downey. I picked up my sister Linda and her son Shane from the airport Friday night Oct 6. I thought fighting traffic back to Downey on Friday night was useless so made reservations at Gladstones for 7:30. We... (more)

I went to this restaurant with some friends a few weeks ago. There was a long wait even though we made reservations ahead of time. When we finally got a table, we were met with by an unfriendly server. She had a bad... (more)

Gladstone's used to be a great place, active and friendly since I first discovered the place, twenty years ago. Nowdays, something happened and Gladstones is becoming terrible. You are met by a peanut brained... (more)

I'm amazed at the bad reviews. I try to go to Galdstones once or twice a year. I've always had excellent service, in fact one time I took a date for her birthday and it was the manager's birthday also and he sent us... (more)

I love old places with history. But I don't like being lied to about how long it will take to be seated, a long wait, not so friendly service, and after all that, average food. This place is just coasting on its history.... (more)

I can't remember the last time I had a crab that could have been my entire meal. Loved the clam chowder, and a phenomenal view on a sunny Saturday afternoon. The wait staff was great - next time, I'll have to leave room for... (more)
