“Heritage Restaurant, Long Beach – A Well-Earned Michelin Star by Michael Broderick. In a city where “Californian” culinary ambition often plays second fiddle to casual dining, Heritage in Long Beach has carved out a place of quiet excellence, earning a well-deserved Michelin star. This intimate dining experience is a testament to ingredient-driven, technique-forward cooking, where flavors are both restrained, unpretentious, and deeply expressive. From the first bite, it was clear that Heritage excels at layering textures and flavors in unexpected ways. The meal began with an Amuse Bouche trio: a delicate prawn cracker topped with sweet Dungeness crab, a green leaf with another seafood salad that was to be eaten like a mini street taco, and balanced with the brightness and light crunch of pickled turnip. A seemingly simple couple of bites, but one that foreshadowed the precision and thoughtfulness of the courses to follow. To cleanse the palate, a mint tea infused with palo santo was served—a meditative interlude that was both refreshing and aromatic, setting the stage for the evening’s journey. The first official course, Crème Caviar, featured Russian Sturgeon Heritage Caviar and chive, a chilled preparation that was rich yet elegantly restrained. This was followed by Kanpachi Crudo, presented with carrot, ginger, and macédoine vegetables, offering a balance of clean ocean flavors against bright, vegetal undertones. Then came what I consider the star of the evening: a dish that fully captured the ethos of Heritage—Hen of the Woods Mushroom, topped in a “sunchoke stew” (crispy fried sunchoke) with fermented mushroom. For an additional $25, an indulgent shaving of black truffle took the dish to another level, transforming it into a sensory experience that evoked the deep, earthy satisfaction of foraging. The interplay of umami-rich elements made this course a masterpiece of textural and flavor contrast. The proteins that followed were executed with equal care. First, a perfectly prepared Rainbow Trout, sauted to perfection with a crispy layer of skin on one side, delicate pink flesh on the other, bathed in a delicate dashi and punctuated with bursts of smoked trout roe in a light creme sauce, which lent salinity and depth. Then, a 32-day dry-aged rib chop, a cut that can sometimes lean too “gamey” in the tradiinal steak house that cuts corners on a post aging trim, yet here was a revelation—tender, deeply beefy, but balanced. Accompanying the dish was sous vide endive, black garlic, and a shaving of Parmesan, which surprisingly lacked the usual sharpness, instead presenting a more rounded, delicate, nutty flavor. Desserts were a study in technique and balance. The first, a Grilled Strawberry with strawberry granita and Meyer lemon crème, was bright and refreshing, its layers revealing different expressions of cool and sweetness. Then came the Coco Craquelin, a delicate choux pastry filled with beurre noisette ganache and banana cremeux, meant to be eaten with the hands—a playful and interactive moment in the meal. Finally, a Sage Basque Cake, its subtle herbaceousness complemented by toasted hemp seeds and lemon curd, provided a grounding, crispy finish. Heritage is the kind of restaurant that doesn’t simply chase trends—it refines them into something personal, something intentional. The execution is confident but never showy, and the experience is paced with precision, allowing each dish to tell its own story. This is not just a meal—it’s a quiet, profound meditation on flavor, technique, and the land from which it all comes. Where other restaurant profess to be a true “Californian” style farm to table experience , Heritage is, without a doubt, a must-visit for anyone who seeks out truly exceptional dining in California.“

“We ordered a cake and cupcakes for my moms 90th birthday party. The cake and the cupcakes weren’t only beautiful, the were Delicious! Only thing bad was they disappeared quickly and I didn’t get to taste all the flavors! Thank you Patty!“

“This place is always busy. We find seating there at the counter and we do not need to wait for 20 minutes. We love the bean soup? And the apple pie was great.“

“Delicious!!! Always so good. 😋“

“I visited Nonna Mercato for dinner and had a cozy and refined dining experience. The restaurant had a warm Italian-style atmosphere with a comfortable setting that felt inviting for a relaxed evening meal.

We ordered fresh pasta, wood-fired pizza, salad, and sparkling drinks. The food arrived hot and beautifully presented. The pasta had rich flavor, the pizza crust was crisp and light, and everything tasted fresh and balanced. Portions felt satisfying without being overly heavy.

The service was attentive and professional. Orders were handled smoothly, and the pacing of the meal felt calm and well-managed.

Overall, Nonna Mercato is a great dinner spot if you want fresh Italian flavors, a cozy ambiance, and a polished casual dining experience.“

“I love that it's never super crowded when I go in, a helper/cashier always comes to greet me within a few seconds, the vibe is always nice and chill. I love the large varieties of cookies there and they're large! Every cookie and small pie has been absolutely delish! I just had a small key lime pie this past weekend that SO good!“

“We LOVE George’s for a quick lunch, nice dinner, or catering a party! They have been there for me for all my dining or party needs. They never disappoint. Both the food and the service is outstanding.“

“Best Place - A very clean restaurant, great food and service“

“I go to this place every time I come to Long Beach, these are the best brownies I have ever had. The owner is super nice, and there is a nice vibe inside the store. I usually get matcha brownies and chocolate brownies, but everything is good here.“

“This is Costco for bakery. Huge and crowded. Lines and orders move pretty fast. Dine in and to go available. Parking is crowded most of the time. Bakeries, coffee, and pastries are above average, but not something you gotta have. Prices are reasonable. Good to visit once when near by.
Try the Bensito, very good cookie pastry. Good cake pastry with nice inside truffle fillings.“

“Nick’s food and service doesn’t disappoint! Menu options are great, and they’ll take a classic comfort dish such as a meat loaf to a gourmet degree. Service is impecable too. Worth every dollar you spend here in every aspect! They have my respect and heart! ♥️“

“I absolutely love your Pastries, the Vanilla Oat Milk was a recommendation from one of the workers and it was a hit!“

“best vegan pizza of any restaurant possible. It's what a pizza restaurant should be!! They did it! Gluten free crust is grainy with a chew. Can't find that anywhere else. In a beautiful area. Has a library with books showing a vegan world. Best pictures of italy. Every single seasoning in a rack possible - and then some. Restrooms are fine enough. The water is on tap - easy to access. The pizzas come with a spatula - makes you want to share! Tastes so amazing. Just don't like the only soy nice creams and overreliance on faux products - but with the whole plaza with so many vegan options - you can easily go to urthly for dessert delights and the place customizes to remove whatever you don't want. Lots of options, easy to get to - relatively. Vegan grocery store nearby - so you can eat and shop - 2-in-1. Choice of italian, mexican, and asian all in one place. Vegan pride to the max for a vegan world. Too bad for that chemical leak in garden grove messing up going to this place - as I would've come back! I came before it showed up.“

“Hapa was the only cupcake place that had Champagne Cupcakes 🧁 and I called several other places. I was so excited to here them say yes we have some... and they threw in a extra one for us💗“

The toppings were fresh, and each bite felt comforting and satisfying. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The restaurant itself was clean and cozy, creating the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a warm bowl of ramen. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends.“

“HOW I GOT BACK MY HUSBAND I am sharing this testimony to partners suffering in their relationships because there is an enduring solution. My husband left me and our 2 kids for another woman for 3 years. I tried to be strong just for my kids but I could not control the pains that torment my heart. I was hurt and confused. I needed a help, so i did a research on the internet and came across a site where I saw that Dr Ozole spell caster, can help get my lovers back. I contacted him and he did a special prayer and spells for me. To my surprises, after some days, my husband came back home. That was how we reunited again and there was a lot of love, joy and peace in the family. You can as well contact Dr. Ozole , a powerful spell-caster for solutions on his page today #drozolespellhome“

“Yummy everything is delicious“

“I saw their signs and decided to stop in. As someone allergic to gluten and living the low carb lifestyle I was excited to see what they had, but a little skeptical because deserts from most places are dry.

I decided to try the mini turtle Bundt cake and it was hands down the best dessert I’ve had in over a decade!! I was in absolute heaven and then to find out it was only 220 calories! The perfect snack!

I can’t recommend them enough! I will definitely be back!“

“Delicious!!! Definitely coming back. Great friendly service!…🥰“

“This place is really wonderful. Inviting, relaxing, and just delightful. The staff are especially wonderful. They make a mean cubano iced latte! My son loves this place!“

“Best place for coffee and more! Awesome!“

“They have really good food“

“Worthy of a special trip! They took such care in their preparation. It’s not a glitzy place but the service was special. Counter order, lots of options. My wife and I stopped there as we were staying at the Hampton inn in the same area. I had a yellowtail roll along with tempura and my wife had the salmon. Vegetables were perfect presentation was spot on for casual dining and my roll was one of the best I’ve had. Perfect proportion of spicy tuna to yellowtail to rice. If I lived in the area I would go here at least once a week. Prices were also spot on and in many cases extremely reasonable. Bravo Kabuto!!! A special place!!“

“The tri tip I order today was amazing and the staff here are very respectful and attentive! Got a chance to try out the new bbq sauce recipe and it’s delicious! 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend this restaurant for the bbq lovers“

“It's a very welcoming place. Whether you're on the terrace or inside, you can enjoy a beautiful view while savoring a delicious breakfast. They have a wide menu with plenty of options to suit every taste. The Dubai waffle and the pasta carbonara are some of my favorites. I highly recommend it. Congratulations to the owner and the chef, as well as the servers for their excellent service. I'll be back.“

“Thank you so much for making such a beautiful birthday cake and delivered to Parkers Lighthouse which the cake was thought beautiful by even staff. Will always come back to the Creative Bakery. Thank you again.“

“been ordering for 4 yrs love there menu good prices happy they deliver“

“love the food and service is great“

“I like to stop at this donut place when I'm in the area. They have a large variety of donuts and they all look delicious. Prices are reasonable. I usually get a mocha ice blended drink. The man who helped me last time fulfilled my request to have the drink extra blended (sometimes the ice is too chunky to drink through a straw when it's not blended enough). He was kind about helping me out. The lady is so kind too. I was having a rough time one day and she shared some kind words with me that kept me going. This place isn't located in the best part of town, but other than that I have nothing but good things to say about it - the food and the staff in particular.“
