Aviator Nation Dreamland — Restaurant in Malibu

TLDR: I am sober and was served a cocktail, tried to double check to make sure it didn’t have alcohol in it, was reassured it didn’t, then later server told me that it indeed had alcohol. Would not recommend this place.

Regular version: I’ve been sitting on this review for a week now because I was triggered by this place….

I visited here with a friend last weekend, to grab a mocktail on our way back to LA. I asked our server if there were any non alcohol mocktail options that I could order, she told me that the bartender can make most of the menu items as mocktails and that she will bring me one. We ordered two drinks and a buffalo cauliflower dish.

For context, I am 6 months sober. After I had my first sip, I knew it had alcohol in it. So I walked up to the server and asked her if she was sure that the drink she served me was non alcoholic because I am newly sober. She looked over to our table for a second and reassured me that it was, and I shouldn’t worry about it. I went back to my table and I told my friend how I’m not sure how a mocktail can taste so much like the real thing, but whatever. 🤷🏽‍♀️ a few mins later, she comes running back to us to tell me she mixed it up, and that my mocktail indeed had alcohol in it…. I was honestly so emotional, because anyone who’s been sober by choice or for health knows how messed up that is.

it was a slow day, maybe 4 tables were occupied in total, so it wasn’t too busy to justify what happened, it was simply carelessness.

I’m honestly really rattled by this experience, and would not recommend...

This review only pertains to the open mic event held here on Thursdays at 7 pm. Food:5/5 Staff:5/5 Event Space: 5/5

It is absolutely disheartening to have to leave this review, but I feel it is important for the community to be aware.

The open mic host is named Nelson. It is his poor time management and nepotism that broke what I thought was the open mic golden rule. The sign up list... I arrived at 5:30 and chose a time slot in the middle. Ended up 3rd or 4th to last.

I have never seen a less organized and friendship influenced open mic where "Sorry, but they wanted to go sooner" determines order of performance.

If you aren't already in the Malibu area, I would avoid the drive and make your way somewhere else on a Thursday. This experience totally ruined what should have been 5 star and I will...
