“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.“

“terrific food. very flavorful and healthy.“

“Fantastic meal full of nutrients and energizes the body. The concept of Everytable is phenomenal. Everything is delicious.“

“My friend and I went for brunch on Saturday. Great experience in a cozy restaurant close to the beach. No view but great service, food and ambiance. We ate on the rooftop area but inside looked cute too. Server was nice and available but manager Tony went above and beyond to take care of us. Food was tasty annd yummy ice cream for bday surprise. Overall wonderful time. My friend already reserved to come back in the next couple weeks with out of town visitors.“

“Had the best tortilla soup ever! And Chef Steven Lutz circulating through the restaurant to say hi and assure everyone having great food and service was a treat. Don’t miss the baked goods like banana cream pie. Amazing! Very pleased and will be back again!“

“The rumors are true you gotta finish the pizza within like 10 minutes of it coming out of the oven or the crust gets a tad bit too chewy for people without superhuman jaw muscles. But within that golden window everything about the pizza is divine. My goto is the d fresh“

“Good quality food. Healthy options. Great service. My favorite is the braised beef and mushroom with mashed potatoes. The mango tart is amazing.“

“We had excellent food and service from Kenni!“

“This every table is a lifesaver. I work long hours running my business, so it is hard to eat well when you’re away from home for hours that hours at a time. But since I found every table right down the street for me, I know that I can always run in and get a nutritional meal that’s tasty and made from scratch.“

“Healthy Choices on a Budget. That Trap Kitchen Curry Chicken 💣💣💣💣“

“The workers at Everytable always offer exceptional service, and are not afraid to help out a customer when they are struggling. The casual atmosphere makes it enjoyable to eat at and get a coffee while doing classwork, or even if just stopping by for a quick treat.“

“Great pizza and knots! Visiting from Arizona. Owners very friendly and great customer service. Wish we had one of these in Arizona. Definitely we would give 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Thanks till the next visit!“

“We love the pizza and pasta at South Bay Pizza. Our favorite is any of their pastas. Their chicken alfredo is our favorite, but we also love their chicken carbonara and their Italian sausage pasta. It is all really good.

We picked up our order this time and it was perfect. It took minutes to heat up. We would have loved to dine there, it is so cute and clean, but we just did not have time.

We also think their service is excellent. I love it when a to go order is exactly as ordered and I don't have to open everything first to check it. The staff is very nice.

The prices are fair.

Their pizzas are also great. We love their BBQ chicken pizza and their Buffalo pizza. It is just the best.

You will love this place. Have fun. They sometimes have specials so check.“

“Goop Kitchen is always a solid go-to—and one of my local favorites. They offer a great variety of options for all kinds of diets and eaters, and every time I go, I try something new and leave impressed. The food is healthy and genuinely delicious, and the staff are consistently warm and friendly.“

“This Vietnamese spot quietly sits inside a bland strip mall but surprises in every bite. The pho was rich and fragrant, and their pho‑French‑dip banh mi served on Persian bread was unforgettable. I appreciated how inventive yet respectful their flavor combinations stayed. Seating is minimal, but the staff are attentive and efficient. It’s precisely the sort of hidden gem locals appreciate—not glossy, just excellent food“

“This is a great concept for a takeout restaurant with prepared meals. I got the cilantro rice, spicy black beans, a buddha bowl with tofu, and honey spicy sweet potatoes for a great price. Some items were 25% off because they were going out of date the next day, but they lasted in my fridge, and still tasted fresh, for 3 days. They also have meat entrees, but I really appreciated their vegan options. The only reason I didn't give Everytable five stars is because they use more oil than I prefer. The food is yummy, but wish they'd use less oil, at least on the vegan dishes. And, the service was helpful, especially for my first time there. The location in Torrance has a small area with tables and chairs and they will heat up your food, if you prefer your meal warm.“

“Love my Salad 💕💕It was the bomb 💣“

“Always Fresh & Delicious 😋“

“Love this Everytable. It's accessible to me and my friends, as wel as my coworkers.

The service there is always so kind and welcoming. There is never a long wait or line and the food is always amazing!

5/5 stars for sure!“

“Last week I was traveling through LA on my way to Santa Barbara. I had some time to kill so I looked up Poke. Came across this amazing place! I am admittedly new to Poke. The staff took good care of me and I wound up having such a hard decision. I think the spicy Poke might have been might absolute favorite. I can’t wait for my next trip to LA so I can stop there again!“

“Every Table meal subscription is amazing. Delicious, healthy foods at a very fair price. 5 dinners only $38. The best part is my area has brick and mortar stores where I just walk in and buy my meal prep for the week...Meals cooked in a local kitchen by real chefs with local fresh ingredients. I'm busy all the time and although I love cooking it's hard to cook for just one person. The majority of meals are 600 calories or less. An easy way for me to stay in my calorie deficit. I just had the chicken schwarma bowl and it was soooo good. Tasted just like a home cooked meal. Highly recommend“

“Wow!! The entire staff was so helpful and friendly! Evan the owner was so welcoming. Eggs were prepared perfectly, I know raving about scrambled eggs but honestly velvety smooth with a flaky salt finish. We ordered the chicken and waffles which were Absolutely incredible!“

“Everything was amazing today lovely morning team, the gentleman and young lady that help me today were very pleasant. I believe their names were sir David and Emi or something like that they made me feel so welcome and just being able to get my day started was amazing thank you please keep hiring ppl like them amazing team work for a morning“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“Best Persian food in Torrance“

“Food is bomb ! (plain Fettuccine Alfredo).Service although a bit unorganized - it reminded me of a Three Stooges clip; lol smh however it was very surprisingly pleasant very attentive and pretty accommodating...my ONLY real criticisms are for the prices which are good, however as a courtesy they could include a complimentary piece of garlic bread with the meal ; also the Kool Aid could have used a bit more sugar other than those two small suggestions I really enjoyed the food and service !“

“In my 60 years (GASP) on this planet I have NEVER EVER had such an amazingly great pizza!! You cannot go wrong here!!“

“First time there, the food was awesome and customer service was excellent.“

“Pizza was very good! 🔥 would definitely recommend to anyone in the Long Beach vicinity! High quality pizza, I would go there again, and again, and again!“

“Amazing Experience! The Food is Delicious and Creative. The Margarita’s are just as unique and delicious, and the STAFF make you feel at home❣️🤗 Great Staff, Delicious Food & Great Drinks! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you for your wonderful hospitality❣️“

“What a find! Not much to look st inside and you might have to wait- but it is awesome! Gets busy at lunchtime“

“the food was great and I got the recommendation from a women that was walking down the street. she said she loves the place“

“Starbird has the best tenders anywhere.. super meaty and not too much breading... 4 tenders is literally a pound of pure chicken breast. Their salads are awesome and they are also available with grilled chicken. Grab a huge box of nuggets for the football game or party.. so much better than wings! The fries are thick and crispy and have a great potato flavor. There are many different sauce and flavor options to kick up the chicken. The Thai chicken salad is very tasty with a great dressing that has a vinegar kick. In all honestly RK or CF tenders just don't compare.. these are bigger, better and they taste amazing.“

“Everything ; food; service“

“Only in town one day and ate here twice. Such a beautiful find. Kind staff. Good food. I wish I lived closer.“

“The food is fire! The service is mediocre, and the atmosphere is trash (literally). There was a city trash can right outside the restaurant door overfilled with garage and reeking of piss. As for inside of the restaurant, it is very small and crammed. You’re almost standing on top of other people as you wait in line to order or wait for your food to be ready.

As for the food… wow!! 10 out of 10. I ordered the Koren fried chicken (sweet & spicy) and a side of steamed rice. I cannot wait to go back and order this again. I killed the entire meal and did not leave anything behind. My wife ordered the Spicy Mayo Chicken bowl and the Fried Chicken Dumplings. The portion size was huge! She could not finish it. The spicy sauce was too spicy and overpowered the flavor of the chicken, rice, and veggies. Rating this bowl a 4 out of 10 on the spicy overkill.

The prices here are AMAZING! We only spent $25 for our food, drove to Manhattan beach, and enjoyed it while watching the sunset. Our food was still hot after the 35 min drive.“

“Delicious food and friendly workers“

“Great creative sushi rolls. Excellent service.“

“Yanina Nunez the manager is amazing, excellent service. She made me feel important by asking me how was the food? Is there anything we can do better? She also helped me carry my food since I walk with a cane and it’s hard to carry things! Thank you Yanina💕. I will be back. The food was delicious.“

“I absolutely love the fish tacos here! The flavors are fresh, the portions are great, and there are plenty of options to choose from. Price reasonable. I miss Sauce Bar (no longer providing since the COVID-19 pandemic). Everything I’ve tried has been delicious, and the atmosphere makes it easy to come back again and again. Highly recommend if you’re craving amazing fish tacos!“
