Your Trusted Source for Fresh, Healthy Meals in Malibu
Founded in 1955 as a produce delivery business, John's Garden has evolved into a beloved Malibu institution. Our journey began with John Musante and his sons serving fresh ingredients from a fruit stand in the Malibu Country Mart in 1975. For over 40 years, we have prioritized quality, offering a menu of sandwiches, salads, soups, and juices made with the finest ingredients. In 2013, Boyan Kinov, along with his brother Kalin and childhood friend Ivo Spirov, continued this legacy, expanding our offerings to include acai bowls, healthy snacks, and weekly specials while maintaining our commitment to freshness.Our dedication to the Malibu community is reflected in every dish we prepare, ensuring each customer experiences the same passion for quality that has defined us for generations. We remain a family-run business, rooted in the belief that healthy food should be both delicious and accessible.
