50 Best Cocktail Bars near Lomita

“nice neighborhood bar, decent craft beer selection, friendly staff & patrons, sorry i can’t frequent due to incredibly uncomfortable seating, barstools need to be properly upholstered.“

“Nice chilled bar with cool vibe. I got the Awaiting Persephone Cocktail. The taste of the cocktail with the delicious note of Pistachio did not disappoint. However, I found there was way too much ice in the drink which quickly diluted it and also diminished the intensity of it.“

“Decided to stay near the airport and ended up finding this absolutely quaint, charming, and yummy Mexican restaurant. Loved the complimentary tortillas with the 3 sauces. Ordered the soap and fish tacos. Great flavor. Nice soup presentation. The drinks were delicately prepared, and this space has so much ambiance. So glad we found it.“

“First time ever eating at Restaurant 917 and it was a dream. We had a wonderful server with impeccable timing without being too much or too little in terms of service. We had the burger and scallops and it was amazing! We will definitely make time to go back again!“

“Pura Vita is a vegan Italian restaurant. We keep coming back for their meatballs and pizza. Their artisanal crust is soft and chewy and thin-ish. We use the side of meatballs like a sauce to dip the pizza. Our favorite pizzas are the capriciosa and Margherita. We can also recommend the meatball sandwich- make it smoky and spicy! The service is also friendly, fast and efficient.“

“Delicious… go there!!!! Eat!!! Drink!!!“

“Had a wonderful lunch with husband to celebrate our wedding anniversary We were provided with a glass of bubbly to toast - nice touch!! Our menus were printer with Happy Anniversary- another nice touch. The food was superb I had chicken spicy salad with avocado- delicious My husband had tacos and we started off with the albacore crudo- delicious!!! Thank you STRAND HOUSE for making our day extra special!!!“

“I was dining solo so I chose to sit at the bar instead of taking an entire table. The bartender still gave amazing customer service. She helped me choose sides and wine that went with the scallops I ordered. All of the food I had was amazing, but their scallops are my new favorite scallop dish, and save room for dessert!“

“Birthday dinner. The staff are wonderful, warm and attentive. Mushroom side, oysters, salmon, and steak were so delicious. There is a children's menu if needed but my 11 year old opted for the adult size portions and cleared his plate. Highly recommend.“

“Great service, wonderful atmosphere and delicious food. My family had a great time celebrating at 555!“

“Love this restaurant! Have been here a few time before and this time we came to celebrate our anniversary. The service was excellent! The food was delicious! It's obvious they have a great chef. My husband and I both had crab cakes for appetizer, which were delicious, and for main course we had filet mignon which was cooked to perfection. They offered us a free desert of our choosing for our anniversary. We had crème brûlée. It was delicious! We definitely recommend this place! We tell all our friends to come try it out!“

“Love this spot! Bartender was great and atmosphere is upscale, classy and sophisticated-great when you wanna stay in Hermosa but get away from the Pier!“

“EASILY my favorite bar in Long Beach!! Amazing cocktails, incredibly unique aesthetic, and the friendliest staff and owner. I feel so lucky that I only live a few blocks away and can come here whenever I want! Get the Fairy Fizz. You won’t be disappointed! ?“

“I had the warmest experience at The Arthur J, from the hostess at the front door, the wait staff and the manager. I had recently lost my husband prior to my reservation and was determined to enjoy our anniversary dinner. Not only was a the food delicious, but the overall experience was beyond memorable. Thank you…. thank you. Can’t wait until I return for his birthday.“

“Haven't been here in 15 years and Michael the bartender made me feel cool at home. Anything needed he was there also while getting others their drinks. So having said that this bar is the best thing going on the Hermosa Strip!!!!! Plus the band was killing. Mike needed a raise or must be put in charge of the bar, bc he was FLAWLESS. Even made sure I had a nice cold water with ice !!!!!!!!!!! 20 STARS!!!“

“This is a wonderful place to dine, relax, watch sporting events and more. Family friendly, delicious food, excellent service, great bar tenders and an amazing DJ on Friday nights in addition to the live entertainment“

“Came in for lunch with coworkers, staff was friendly and kept up with us. Food overall was goodat table , i had burger with fries, burger was well done but very moist/juicy and it was stacked , i removed the jalapeños and pickles. Fries were delicious they had a good crust and crunch. The cookie dessert was one of the best chocolate chip walnut cookies I've had. Had to get the ice cream on the side because it contains a bit of alcohol. Plenty of seating low and high tables. Complete with a bar.“

“I have always enjoyed both breakfast and dinner at Bazille. They are quick and efficient. The lobby itself is very clean. I decided to go for the bisque soup and cilantro lime salad with chicken. I was left super satisfied. So delicious! Definitely a nice lunch spot. Be aware that they do get busy for lunch time.“

“Decadence is the place to come for great cocktails and food. They have excellent service and provide amazing music on the weekends. I brought my friends to decadence and had a great time! Did I mention the amazing ambiance! Great for a night out in Hermosa beach! Highly recommend!“

“my husband and I came here for our anniversary and the entire experience was incredible. the food is among the best I've ever had dining out. the service is perfect. we sat outside and the patio was clean, beautiful and has a casual yet romantic atmosphere. I definitely recommend Radici!“

“Always lovely and the food is great!“

“I love this place. I have been coming here for years. Kathleen and Ashley always give fantastic service- they remember my drink and food orders and are always welcoming to my fiancé and I. When you get here, order yourself an OG or two...one of my fave cocktails in the SouthBay. They also have a pretty decent list of other wines, cocktails and spirits to keep everyone happy. Taco tuesdays are fun - crowded (so make a res) but what do you expect when they offer dollar tacos? I also come here for brunch on sundays - the breakfast burritos and avocado toast are great and during football season they have sunday ticket so you can watch your fave team. On the dinner menu, the ribs are always a hit, but i have also had the steak and the burger and loved those too. During the holidays they have a fantastic seasonal cocktail menu and the decor is also really fun. This place is great“

“Trivia night! Service was great. It's So Cal so beer is stupid expensive, but happy hour was good. You can tell they try pretty hard with the menu, but sometimes chips from a bag are better, and not everything needs some weird combo of spices ( like the fries). Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.“

“Good food and friendly service. Appreciated the entire page of vegan options.“

“Great atmosphere, clean, modern, outdoor and indoor settings.The drinks here are delicious, great appetizers but not much of a variety on the appetizers.Recommend you call in advance to book a table or the private room for a large group. Perfect for an after work social or first date. Would recommend sitting outdoors.“

“Fabulous restaurant in an elegant old style European decor. really miss it now that I no longer live in Long Beach“

“Delicious food and great service.“

“Wish I had taken photos. This is in the top 3 of Thai restaurants I have ever eaten. The service was excellent and the food was fresh and delicious. The flavors were perfect. Would go back!“

“Never had a bad meal or service!“

“Absolutely love coming to spend time here. We had a quick business meeting and business was complimented greatly by way of perfectly seasoned chicken, asada, and carnitas. You can't go wrong here with anything that you choose. If you need help just ask your server. Jeffrey is always a cool guy to get suggestions from if he's working on a particular day. Lunch time is great and if you're in the area on Sunday they have a totally different brunch menu to choose from“

“Always great at dockside love it“

“We had the flatbread pizzas and they were phenomenal! The service was quick and clean. I've been in the restaurant industry for over three decades, so I know what to look for. They've got a couple TVs going so there's something to watch if you're alone. I've only been there twice because I don't live near the tavern, but the locals were very friendly & there was an easygoing vibe both times. Drinks are delicious & affordable. It'd be nice if there was more punk rock in the jukebox, but that's just me....“

“It is a good bar, they have live music on the weekends, a pool table, there are three bars, a bar where you can watch sports, play billiards, and there are other games and popcorn, and in the other room, there are bands and another bar, and you can dance outside. They have some tables for those who want to go out say I like it because I can't stand the smell of ?Parking: There is always space“

“Grilled Chicken pesto sammie was yummy....everything was!! Terrific service too...Thx Ryan...good fun!“

“Dined here this evening. We enjoyed some Cocktails to start then ordered Beef Tartare, Shrimp with Veg and Roasted Carrots. Entrees varied from Pasta to Ribeye steak and Burger. All delicious. The Carbonara needed more bacon but that was the only issue. Desserts were great. The Espresso wasn’t hot enough for my guest but overall we enjoyed the evening celebrating a birthday. Will recommend to my friends for sure. Would recommend a reservation as it was very busy by the time we left at 6.30 pm“

“The bartenders are super friendly!!! such a fun place.“

“The hamburgers were Awesome & the salads are Scrumptious❣️“

“This is one of oldest bars in the South Bay and it is a true dive, with lots of character. The walls are covered in old photos and memorabilia, and the vibe is fantastic. Our bartender had heavy pourer, so you're sure to get your money's worth. She recommended some nice drinks and shots. If you're looking for a laid-back place to have a drink and relax, this is a place to check out.“

“I had good time Friday night with with family I kept a smile on my face all night and mingled with friendly people. I love being around an older crowd people enjoying their self that’s what it supposed to be about Black people coming together having fun without fighting all the time. Peace one love.“

“Mel and Jane are super cool. Always a fun time when they are behind the bar. Cute too. Bonus!“

“Frozen take home Pina Coladas are amazing! Creative Whiskey and gin drinks are like nothing I’ve tasted, In a good way! They are full of flavor, refreshing and keep you wanting more with every sip. Such new inventive cocktails that are delicious and fun!“

“We went for Happy Hour on a Tuesday. The bar was crowded and prices were steep for HH, but the ambiance was nice. We had to pay $20 for parking. There was live music. The drinks were decent. The food menu is very limited. The views of DTLB are amazing.“

“Went on a Saturday night for the first time. There was a DJ that had the music and dance floor on point. One pool table but everyone seemed good in coordinating next games. Friendly atmosphere. TV’s around that showed videos of the music being played. Drinks are on point-try the Blueberry Muffin.Parking: There’s a parking lot adjacent to the bar.“

“Food was fantastic, beautiful place, much nicer than expected. Reception wasn't super friendly, didn't match the vibe of the place, but waitress was nice. My fave friendly person there was the photographer from Kazakhstan, she was so sweet & took great pictures of our family“

“Maybe the best bar in Long Beach because of Macara the bartender. So fun it feels like family.“

“Muy buena comida y económica“

“This is a local bar. Expectations should be set appropriately. When I walked in, three locals we're having a discussion about women drivers and the design of American cars. However, the Scorpion was Awesome. Set your expectations low and experience the local to tiki bar. I will be back. ??“

“Last night my family: son, daughter-in-law, two teenage grandchildren, my wife and myself, had an outstanding dinner. Son and daughter-in-law are vegan, and the teen grandchildren are, let us say, picky eaters while my wife and I are more or less foodies. Every dish and drink order was raved about, ranging from the shared 7 cheese Mac & mushroom starter and the avacado hummus with just cooked pita bread, the blueberry lemonade the kids enjoyed, the farmers bowl my son had and the pasta dish my daughter-in-law enjoyed to my wife's simple fish and chips and my salmon. The desserts were also a hit from a burnt brown sugar cinnimon confection to a chocolate budino to a wonderful version of an apple turnover. Everything was a hit, which with this diverse group of eaters is amazing.“

“Evelyn was absolutely amazing!! The menu was just ok, it didn't offer a lot of variety but the food itself was pretty good. The service was next level!! She was attentive, checked in often and went above and beyond. My husband and I celebrated our 16-year anniversary and she even surprised us with a delicious dessert. Thank you!“

“Lovely restaurant with a sexy Parisian flair! Favorite drink is their Negroni. Loved the lamb meatballs! Hummus is delicious and trout almandine is a favorite dish! We also loved the clipped salad! Great service and the nextdoor speakeasy X is a must to have an after dinner drink and some dancing!“
