    Magnificent service. Some of the best. The Yule log—sublime! The pigs in a blanket—imagine what that might be like with a master pastry chef! Shrimp cocktail—how often is it merely passable? Here it is of a uniformly exquisite tenderness. I want to say again, the SERVICE. This place is an industry standard but is generally underrated. Visit it again.

    Each time I step into Catch LA, I feel like royalty. The ambiance is sexy, but it is the service that truly steals the show each time! Every member of the staff exudes professionalism and genuine warmth. They anticipate our needs before we even realize them, making every experience at my favorite LA restaurant impeccable - so much so that we've made coming to Xmas Eve dinner at Catch LA an annual tradition with my chosen family! I have no notes on the effortless quality of food, beverages, and, most importantly, THE SERVICE and THAT is why Catch LA is a step above the rest! Come for a cocktail at the bar, enjoy stunning rooftop views of the city while having delectable food and beverages, and experience dining at its finest! Thanks Catch LA - until next time. - Rodney and Friends.

    We had booked a reservation for Christmas Eve a month in advance, but when we arrived we were not seated for 30 minutes past our reservation time. Nevertheless, once we were seated the service was prompt and friendly, and all of the food was delicious. The various vegetable sides were terrific, including the broccolini, the kombucha squash, and the carrots.

    Devyn was extremely hospitable and welcomed my family with holiday cheer! We were seated in a beautiful location to watch the waves crash the rocks, and had immediate assistance when we asked to turn on the outdoor heaters. But, most importantly, service was timely and delicious and our experience was outstanding! This was our 1st time at Moonshadows as we celebrated our holiday family lunch!!! This will now become an annual family tradition, and anytime in the Malibu area, would love to dine here at Moonshadows! Thanks a ton for the experience!
