What 193barryl doesn't like about John's Garden:
I hate to write a review like this, however while eating my otherwise very good sandwich; I felt something strange in my mouth. It was a 3” dark hair. I was disgusted. It obviously was not mine as I am bald. Prior to this, I was pleased that I found the type of restaurant that I enjoy View all feedback. What Courtney Cornelius likes about John's Garden:
I used to go here on lunch breaks when I went to Pepperdine several years ago and I can report it’s still just as good. I’ve only ever gotten their sandwiches but that’s fine because every one I’ve ever tried is great. The staff are friendly and you can typically count on getting your food fast which is great considering you’re in Malibu with a bunch of tourists View all feedback.

Worst avocado toast I ever had.The bread claims to be gf but it didn’t seem fresh and was burnt.The other dishes my table ordered seemed to be fine, not great.

Despite mixed reviews about the food and service at this restaurant, one can't deny the diverse menu offerings, especially for health-conscious individuals. While some patrons have complained about long wait times and bland food, others have praised the variety of sandwiches available. With options for vegetarians and kids, as well as a selection of healthy snacks and beverages, this spot seems to cater to a wide range of clientele. The outdoor seating offers a pleasant dining experience, but the indifferent staff may leave some diners feeling unappreciated. Overall, it seems like a hit or miss dining destination, depending on individual preferences and expectations.

Pretty average sandwiches, a nice people watching spot. Possibly see a celeb or two? The price is very Malibu, chicken was grilled pretty tasty :)

The sandwiches here are DELISH! I also love their acai bowls, and it's cheaper than Sunlife (next door).
