Malibu is an exclusive enclave that is home to some of the area’s most wealthy and famous personalities. With such attention getting residents, Malibu has also become home to some of the world’s finest shopping and dining.
For more than 33 years, Gladstones has been running an institution in southern California as the go-to destination for the freshest seafood available. Sbe, the reputable hospitality, restaurant and entertainment group, has proudly acquired the restaurant. Executive Chef Daniel Elmaleh has a direct and focused vision when preparing his dishes, and that is to always begin with the highest quality ingredients to ensure proper taste. All seafood is sourced daily; a testament Gladstones can easily prove, as there are no freezers on-site. One of Gladstones’ signature and most popular dishes, the Iced Seafood Tower, represents a selection of ceviche, oysters, shrimp, mussels, crab legs, and lobster from the restaurant’s raw bar.

With furniture, art objects, and architectural pieces taking their inspiration from the principle of found beauty, Shamaris’ designs reflect a natural, if not rustic, aesthetic that embraces the raw over the refined.
