The Mulholland

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at this stylish establishment for dinner with friends. The food was delicious, and so were the cocktails! We had great service and overall a wonderful time. Highly recommended!

Calabasas is not known for its selection of quality places to eat. The locals seem under the impression that local "Italian" restaurant Tosca Nova is the height of sophistication. Or, worse, Marmalade Cafe. But now they have The Mulholland to set them straight. Thankfully. Beautifully positioned in the middle of Calabasas Old Town, and beautifully appointed with a combination of contemporary styling incorporating elements of the original fittings - the hanging light fittings adorning the front meshing nicely with the surrounding Victorian style street lamps are a beautiful touch - the whole aesthetic only adds to the incredible atmosphere. Admittedly, our 8pm Friday reservation dropped us smack bang in prime time, with customers crowding the cosy bar area at the front of restaurant, and while the concertina doors were closed on a cool March evening we were immediately looking forward to warm summer evenings and sitting on the forward deck looking out over the Leonis Adobe museum grounds over the road The food! Just fantastic. We like our food and travel extensively with "places to eat" topping our "things to do" and I would have been happy with the fare served in any of the countries we'd visited. A little pricey - what isn't these days - but the quality is excellent and generous where it counts....the crab salad appetizer particularly good in both areas. And the scallop crudo, while small packed substantial punch with smokey undertones and a beautiful crispy buckwheat crunch (amazing combination, compliments to the chef). Service was prompt and attentitive. Friendly without being intrusive, and - unlike so many American restaurants - we never felt rushed. Special shout out to the super innovative cocktail menu. Sophisticted combinations of unusual ingredients, and wonderfully generous portions (so fed up with $20 drinks gone after two sips). Five stars. Definitely going again.

Service and atmosphere was great. I'd suggest dining early before the crowds if you're looking to have a conversation because once it hits 7pm.... you're screaming and asking "what did you say?" OR dine outside, because it's still lovely and they have heaters. I had the Focaccias “Pizza” Butter,, and it was DEVINE. I took home the rest of the spread I didn't eat. The chicken had an "adobo" taste, which I loved. The burger was okay, (Stand burgers are better) and the filet mignon was a bit too gamey for my liking. The presentation was delightful and well presented. Would I go back? Yes, so I can get the salmon and the scallops.

The food, service and ambiance are excellent.

Burger was undercooked in the center

Everything was amazing, all the dishes were delicious, I was sad that I was full, because I really wanted to eat the whole menu :) Since this is not possible, my dream is to constantly go and try all the dishes.Also, the employees are very polite and good, thank you very much for everything, I can't wait to see you again.

This place was surprisingly good :-) Our server was awesome and she did a great job. I highly recommend the oysters they're unique and absolutely wonderful. I had the strip line steak for dinner and it was really good. Portions are a little small but they're definitely a quality over quantity type of situation! Sorry for my horrible picture. That was some sort of cauliflower pasta dish and it was really great. I thought I had another picture but apparently not!

Overpriced. They'll get the message I hope. The bread costs 10 dollars and it's good, but maybe for 5 if they have to charge. And the sauce for it comes on the side for 4 dollars. I just don't see that as fair, considering the appetizer and entree portions are small. They're really good, but small and I just don't think that's a Calabasas thing, maybe in BH you can get away with it. So keep the quality but make it an option because all the places are the Commons offer worthwhile experiences and not so pricey for what you get. Despite that critique, high marks for the atmosphere, quality and service.

We just had appetizers and the mushrooms was delicious

Everything was delicious! Can't wait to go again one weekend.
