Howdy’s Malibu

We recommend using Howdy's as a pit stop before a day at the beach. This counter-service Mexican spot in the Malibu Country Mart has poke bowls, salads, mariscos, and other things you'd want to eat a few hundred feet from the coast. But we usually focus on their burritos. From bacon and egg to spicy mayo and lobster, Howdy's has an array of options that are more modest in size than Lily's, but notably higher quality. The steak burrito is the move: juicy carne asada, fluffy scrambled eggs, housemade spicy cilantro salsa, and more cheese than a dairy aisle. If you want to dine in, Howdy’s has a large covered patio where you can cool in the shade and sip agua frescas.
