Duke's Malibu Reopens Friday With Limited Hours After Yearlong Rebuild

The Pacific Coast Highway mainstay returns following extensive mudslide cleanup that followed the 2025 Palisades Fire.

Overview

  • The restaurant announced on Instagram that it will welcome guests on March 13 at 12 p.m.
  • Service will run four days a week from around noon to 7–8 p.m., reflecting a phased return.
  • The property avoided major fire damage as firefighters staged in its lot, then was inundated by mud and water from nearby Las Flores Canyon.
  • Crews spent about two months clearing the interior before reconstruction, which included a new deck, according to the restaurant.
  • The adjacent Barefoot Bar reopened in late 2025, and Duke's hosted a thank‑you event for first responders last week ahead of the full reopening.
