on Citysearch Sep 07, 2009The 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)

on Citysearch Jul 29, 2009I 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)

on Citysearch Jul 17, 2009I 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)

on Citysearch Apr 14, 2009Scenario: 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)

on Citysearch Mar 21, 2009The 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)

on Citysearch Dec 28, 2008This 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)

on Citysearch Aug 22, 2008Ah, 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)

on Citysearch Aug 13, 2008One 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)

on Citysearch Jul 21, 2008So, 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)

on Citysearch Jul 08, 2008I 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)

on Citysearch Jun 17, 2008Ate 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)

on Citysearch Dec 29, 2007The 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)

on Citysearch Nov 23, 2007Gladstone'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)

on Citysearch Oct 09, 2007I 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)

on Citysearch Jul 15, 2007The 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)

on Citysearch Mar 10, 2007I 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)

on Citysearch Jan 23, 2007The host's extremely rude service prompted us to leave before eating. I dropped in with my girlfriend last night after hearing good things about the restaurant and were delighted to see the excellent window... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 08, 2006I 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)

on Citysearch Sep 21, 2006I 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)

on Citysearch Aug 03, 2006I'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)

on Citysearch Jul 16, 2006I 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)

on Citysearch Jun 27, 2006Food is only good, service is absolutely horible! Do not expect to be saseated for a while on a weekend, and expect the waiter to have an attitude! How dare you TIP them! The food is good and a little expensive. The... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 17, 2006I 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)

on Citysearch Jun 16, 2006Gladstone's has been a staple of So Cal existence for over 30 years. Come in, grab a drink, grab some peanuts, and enjoy one of the most amazing views in L. A. As a bartender there, take my advice and listen to your... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 27, 2006I'll confess I'm not a sophisticated connoisseur of seafood since I was raised in landlocked Colorado- a rural town at that. However, what I've eaten at Gladstones during 2 different visits to SoCal has been nothing... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 23, 2006The one good thing about this restaurant is the clam chowder, but it's too highly priced. The outdoor benches are painful to sit in after just 10 minutes, and the staff is rude on their good days.... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 22, 2006It's been a while since I've been to Gladstone's and I like the changes. The service was great from being seated right away to the service. I was more impressed with the new menu. I never like the paper placemat menus... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 22, 2006I love going to Gladstone's. Not only is it a California Landmark, but I love to see the variety of people who go there. It's fun to people watch. I mainly go there for their bloody mary's and clam chowder. It's my get away... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 07, 2005I've been to Gladstone's many times now, always for the location - you can't beat a table right off the beach with a sweeping ocean view. As soon as you order, they deliver fantastic bread, usually still hot. The... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 03, 2005I ate at Gladstones 4 Fish on Sunday evening. I arrived around 4pm and told the host that my wife and I would like to be seated outside. He asked me if I had a reservation. I said "no" and he said he "would do what he could do".... (more)
