The Sunset was the absolute perfect venue for my husband and I. The beach where the ceremony was set up had special meaning to Michael and I. It's where we fell in love, where we were engaged and now where we were married. The staff-- Annie, Samantha, and Mara-- were extremely helpful when our plans changed last minute. The food was amazing and with such a beautiful backdrop there was no need for over the top ceremony decor. As for earlier reviews saying no music could be amplified. This isn't the case. You can amplify music and your vows during the ceremony... just not before or after. I highly recommend the Sunset to anyone considering a beach wedding.

The entire staff at this venu is AMAZING! They are very flexible with EVERYTHING. Our wedding was on 7/811 and ALL of our guest LOVED the location and the food. I'm glad we had our wedding here and look forward to going back there for dinner each anniversary.

Only drawback: They require a professional & certified day of coordinator. This was kind of a headache for me. If or once they bring in their own planning services, this will TRULY be the BEST wedding venu in all the world.

Annie and the staff were amazing!! We had such a great time and the food was delicious:)

We got our beach wedding just the way we wanted. The staff was so helpful and nice. Everyone at our wedding raved about the location and the food!

The Sunset Restaurant was the dream backdrop for our big day. Choosing this location was a no-brainer. The beach is pristine, the event room has beautiful fabric-draped ceilings, and the food is amazing. Once into the negotiation process, we were given room to really voice every opinion we had. The event staff made sure we were always well-informed and made so well in advance. The day of was handled so carefully and professionally, with plenty of people on hand to make sure every detail was coordinated perfectly with our professional coordinator. We wouldn't change one thing about our experience at Sunset.

We had an amazing beach wedding at The Sunset in August of 2010. The day turned out perfect. The Sunset was great at explaining everything to us, planning the event, providing the food and drinks, setting up the ceremony. We even had our rehearsal dinner there as well. From start to finish the Sunset was easy to deal with and the wedding turned out perfect. Our guests loved the location! They also loved the food... the Sunset is a very good restaurant. They were very accommodating. We highly recommend the Sunset if you want a beach wedding.

They did a great job on everything NOT one thing went wrong!!!

The Sunset was the perfect place to have a beach wedding in Southern California. The food was excellent, the staff was amazing and the setting couldn't be any more grogeous. The only negative in the whole of everything was that they do not allow you to amplify ANY on the beach, and so because it is incredibly windy on Zuma Beach, it is next to impossible to hear ANY music played in the ceremony. An unfortunate fact because it takes a lot away from the ceremony, at least it did in our case.

Kelly Ann is an absolute doll- a dream to work with. She is very prompt with her communication, which I really appreciated. The Sunset Restaurant is simply unbeatable for a beach wedding. Located directly on the sands of Zuma beach, it showcases SoCal's beauty with it's elegant but relaxed decor, friendly barstaff, and incredible views! It is also pretty secluded, certainly one of those gems known only by the locals!

The food was amazing as well and we continue to get rave reviews from our guests! Our only issue was that our meal was a full hour late and it was definitely a problem as we had many young children in attendance.

Overall, we had an amazing event, and I would book them again if I needed to. :-)

absolutely amazing. kelly ann and her staff will make it right! we had the best wedding - just what we hoped for.

Wow!!! That is all I can say and it doesn' even fully discribe the experience. I would totally give it the best location award, best customer service award, and best venue award. not only is it beautiful, the staff makes you feel like one of the family. Even if you go back for dinner later that night they all still remember you and make a fuss over you. They are extrordinary people. Very Unique place. You can't beat having dolphins showing up during the ceremony on the beach.

The Sunset Restaurant is a fantastic place to get married. You can have your ceremony and reception and catering all in one place, and it's relatively affordable. Kelly Ann, the restaurant's event coordinator, is very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. She knows what she's doing and will work with you to make sure you get the wedding you want. Just make sure you go over everything you want first, because there are a lot of rules and regulations to follow, both for the restaurant and the public beach outside. Still, it's not unreasonably strict, and we were able to have the wedding of our dreams.

The location is beautiful and the food and service from the restaurant was outstanding. We can't recommend this venue enough for people looking for a nice little place to have a beach wedding.

I absolutely loved the Sunset Restaurant for my wedding. It's classy, intimate, and the food is delicious. Where else can you get married right on the sand in Malibu? My guests all commented that they had such a fabulous time, and plan to come back there for dinner again.
