“"Thai District is a culinary gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was absolutely amazing, bursting with authentic Thai flavors that transported us to Thailand. Scott, our server, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. Not only did he provide impeccable service, but he also shared interesting tidbits about the area, like the length of the actual “Long Beach” in Long Beach, adding a delightful personal touch to our evening. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. Five stars all around for Thai District!"”
“It's not a cheap date, but it's a nice one. Skip the famous Caesar salad that's not even an Italian thing. Wines are great, the pastas are good. Loud acoustics, high energy, tons of staff. Only one asked us if we wanted another glass of wine. It is a different setup, counter service and table service combo. Ordered and paid and tipped before we were even sat. Wine bar gave you tastings of any wines you wanted to try so that adds a lot to the experience.”
“Great drinks, vibe and experience. Ricardo and Alina made it 10/10. We had tried the wait list a week before and were not able to get in, really glad we made a reservation this time around definitely worth the wait!”
“We had a 40th college reunion there. The ambience was perfect, food was great and the staff were wonderful! Everyone had a great time!”

“One of the best restaurants in Long Beach for Peruvian, style, seafood, ceviche, and Sushi. Family owned and operated with a friendly vibe and amazing service.”
“To John Hansen, My wife and I would like to thank you for such a lovely evening. Chez Bacchus represents the “True Expression of a Dining Experience”. Starting with the welcoming staff at the entrance. John, your hospitality is the beginning of the joyful experience. The restaurant is so elegant. We enjoyed the vaulted ceilings with wood beams. We enjoyed the large window at the kitchen area so you can see the Chefs at work. We got to sit next to the impressive wine rack display. The restaurant’s ambiance wouldn’t be complete without the soft background music. Our waiter, Issac, was a delight. He provided us with his expertise in choosing our wines, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. It was a pleasure to meet to give special thanks to the Chef, Danny Le and Su Chef, Donald. Their expertise is why we had an amazing and delicious dinner.”
“Good food and good service. Lamb donor kebab flavors were good - could have had a more meat but was satisfying for a lunch!
The sun-dried tomatoes and olive oil served with naan and tea is a nice touch! They have a gift shop next to the restaurant and then an ice-cream and dessert shop next to the gift shop! Would come again!”

“I ABSOLUTELY love this place! There is always something going on here whether it's live jazz, a game night, etc. Their cocktails are priced at around $18, but they are very unique and totally worth it! It is a small and cozy place with dark atmospheric vibes but there is also a tiny balcony area up top if you want to get away from the noise. Staff was awesome and so were the guests that were there. I totally recommend this place for some good drinks and a great atmosphere! Parking can be tough because it's only street parking.”
“Great beer. Great CS. BUT, beer menu is not what is offered on the actual current beer menu. Also, food menu is not up to date. Asked for 2 burgers and had to settle for one i didnt want. Please. Just update to current day menus. Thank you”
“Husband and I went there last night during Haunt Hopping in Santa Ana -- and WOW!! Absolutely delicious, filling burgers and crispiest, hottest fries! Very friendly service. Hoping they open some locations near us, but until then, we'll make special trips -- they're that good!”
“The food was really good, and the presentation was lovely as well.
The service was good and the atmosphere was nice. A really chill ambiance. They made my aunts 80th birthday lunch a really nice experience!”

“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.”

“If you're looking for authentic Mexican food made with passion, Bubu's Restaurant is an absolute must-visit. Bubu's Restaurant
I ordered the mole chilaquiles, and they were nothing short of incredible. From the moment the plate arrived, you could see the attention to detail in the presentation. Every ingredient was thoughtfully placed, creating a dish that looked as amazing as it tasted.
The mole was rich, perfectly balanced, and full of deep, authentic flavor. You can truly taste the heart and love that goes into making it. Every bite felt homemade, comforting, and unforgettable. It's the kind of meal that reminds you why traditional Mexican cooking is so special.
To top it all off, the service was outstanding. Server was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. Amazing food paired with exceptional hospitality is a winning combination.”
“Last night we went to Speak Cheezy on 4th St at Termino. First off, EXCELLENT customer service! We had the Shroomday Button (Oyster and Maitake Mushrooms/ White Wine Braised Leeks / Truffle Cheese / house stretched mozzarella / shredded mozz / parsley / post oven of lemon zest. *We love to add Hobbs Sausage*). I added that delicious sausage and loved that pizza! We also had the Bloomsdale (garlicky bloomsdale spinach / hand stretched mozzarella / shredded mozzarella /pecorino / smoked ricotta / gaeta olive / za’atar / feta salsa verde)... and YUM! And we decided to try the Garden of Farms Little Gem Caesar Salad (little gems / kewpie caesar dressing / pizza croutons / anchovies / Ribbons of Fiscalini Gold / soft cooked egg). Again, tasty, tasty, tasty. Speak Cheezy sure seems to use high-end products in the creation of their pizzas and salads. Everything was top notch. That salad was so yummy with that incredible salad dressing and the jammy soft cooked egg. I want another one to eat with my lovely pizza leftovers. :)”
“The service was great, the ingredients were fresh, and we will be back next time.”

“First time here got the dirty was blown away they cook the burger from my dog Gizmo he ate it all he's only 12 lbs only downside now is I guess they're allowing takeout. Had to wait a little bit while a guy took 10 of them but I'll be back it was definitely worth the the time waiting I sat out on the back porch next to the grill with just incredible essence”
“El fin de semana celebramos la quinceañera de mi hija en Rivera's Restaurant y todo estuvo excelente. Desde el primer acercamiento George siempre fue muy amable y comprensivo con lo que esperábamos para nuestra fiesta. La decoración y sobre todo la comida y atención a nuestros invitados fue excelente. Estamos convencidos que volveriamos a tener otro evento con ellos.”
“🤤🤤🤤🤤😱😱😱 A 10!!! I GIVE IT A TEN!!!! OMG I just had your food for the first time today 4/25/23 3:59pm and oh my this California Burrito & Holy Guacamole Burger & fries is entirely too good and I will be visiting again. Please, Please, Please, Never Leave Vegas, and please build another location in N. Las Vegas (preferably the Centennial area like across the street from my house 🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰🥰) JK. But definitely in the Centennial area. Great Staff too. VERY FRIENDLY. ❤️”
“I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting the food to be this exceptional. And that is because sometimes chain establishments are not great. However, Camille suggested a couple of dishes for us and they did not disappoint and in fact I would’ve licked the plates if it was publicly appropriate. I highly recommend the biscuits and gravy and short rib hash!!!!! Omg so delicious!! I can’t wait to come back for more!!!”

“The food is amazing 10/10 but the outdoor patio dinning is awful. You cannot have a conversation because the sound echos so loudly and when the staff moves tables around they drag it along the tile and all of the tables have to stop and wait till they are done to be able to speak again with your table.”
“Lunch (Brunch) Saturday June 8 Been reading many glowing reviews ..R they deserved ? If all dishes as flavorful as the Lamb” Secco” Then YES Not cheap , but If I am spending $40-50 person ,the food had Better taste like this. Also good: basic Margherita Pizza. Beer list is thoughtful. Wife REALLY enjoyed her Anderson Valley Rose wine with the Lamb dish Bottom line: this cafe is worth supporting. Thanks for setting up shop in Coastal Long Beach- Naples”
“Had the best dinner Friday night. The food was amazing and fresh. They grow their own vegetables, The service was friendly and informative. The atmosphere was great. Highly recommend for a night out. Get the food sampler for 2. Worth the price. Can’t wait to try brunch.”
“Great atmosphere and wonderful staff.
The reasons I put 4 stars and not 5 are the fact that our meat came out awhile after the rest of our food and was a bit dry- I think they might have been short staffed in the kitchen that day.
Loved the falafel, beets and the lebneh.
If youre in the area definitely give them a try!”
“A very unique menu of drinks I wouldn’t see often. If you are someone who is willing to push your own boundaries of flavor and music profile- this is the place for you. The live music was fantastic- if I was a local I would be here more often. The band was great and the drinks made the place even better. Clean bathrooms, good priced highball drinks, good food.”

“On wednesday, I went to this Subway. I was really hungry, and my mood had been terrible since morning- I had fought with everyone. When I got there, I met Mr. Ravi, an Indian guy. When I asked him for an extra scoop of tuna, he told me it would cost extra, and I got annoyed because it looked too little. I was already angry, but he handled the situation so calmly and respectfully that he actually made me laugh in the end. His service was so good that it genuinely made me want to leave a review, because he was completely right from his side. I truly salute that kind of customer service.”
“I came in with my kids, and Nermin helped us. She was incredibly kind and patient, especially while my kids were being fussy. She made us feel so welcome and handled our order perfectly, even my son’s very picky, customized order!
It’s so refreshing to meet someone in the food industry who is genuinely kind, helpful, and makes you feel valued as a customer. Because of Nermin, we’ll definitely be returning to this location. Thank you for making our lunch such a wonderful experience!”
“Charisma provided outstanding customer service from the moment I walked in. She was friendly, professional, and made my sandwich exactly how I wanted it. Everything was fresh, she worked quickly, and the restaurant was clean. She made the experience enjoyable, and I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“While their tacos aren't as large as tacos bell, at least they don't break in half as soon as you remove them from the wrapper. I always get the Del Taco Special on Tuesdays and ask for the cheese to be next to the meat. I've been there so many times they've began to recognize my voice and order, lol”
“Very polite and friendly people work here. They were extremely helpful and got my food out to me quickly. The atmosphere in here is very relaxing and the restaurant is super clean. I would recommend this location to anyone. If I could give more than 5 Stars I would. Thank you all for such great service! I'll definitely be back.”
“The carnitas burrito was amazing, that's my go to, and haven't had a decent one in a long time. Meat was tender, flavor was excellent, I wanted to savor each bite, I am a critic when it comes to food , especially my favorite which is Mexican and carnitas, definitely did not disappoint. My daughter absolutely loves birria, I'll have to try it, we will order again! Thank you for great quality”
“This del Taco location is on pioneer boulevard and Artesia boulevard in Artesia in a Stater Brothers parking lot area it's a very nice del Taco We go there quite often because of the employees they are very nice and friendly We have good rapport with them We know each other and everybody knows each other by name it's a nice place I recommend going there The portions are good they don't skimp”
“the food and drinks here are all amazing, waffles and burrito especially. no indoor seating unfortunately, but still worth beating the heat☺☺☺”
“Great service. Decor was chic. Service on point, not rushed. Great place for a date.”
“We were looking for a vegetarian/ vegan Mexican restaurant and came across this hidden gem.
We were amazingly surprised by how delicious the food was. The atmosphere is very chill and gives cozy Mexican vibes.
We started with the corn ribs with the sauce which were amazing. 10/10. We got the “carne asada” burrito and three tacos; “carne asada”, “carnitas”, and the “shrimp”. I love the shrimp taco. My husband really likes the carne asada burrito.
We are definitely coming back to try their other dishes/ choice of protein.”

“I finally have a local, good, and cost effective place near my house. So far I’ve had their cheese burger and fish ceviche. The burger was big and juicy. The fries were great. The fish ceviche was spiced so if you don’t like spice like me, ask them to put the vinaigrette on the side and add to your liking. But a good overall place that I recommend. They also do take out and call in for pick up. They do Door Dash and Grub hub too.”
“Just visited the San Pedro location on Gaffey. I had the garlic shrimp - seriously delicious!!!”

“Even if not stopping on the way home, the charcoal aroma makes their asada of the best fills the street almost everyday providing comfort for us in the neighborhood. As many reviews mention the pastor, it is worth its weight in gold. I bounce back and forth getting each.
My only wish, alongside one review, is that they were on the spicier side... Definitely doesnt diminish the pure excellence of this place though and they're of the best. I'll be back soon and thank you for being in the neighborhood.”
“Best Turkish food that is easy flavorful consistent and never misses. I love this place”
“Seriously, one of the best breakfast burritos I've had, and don't even get me started on the tortas. So good!
I usually get a chorizo and egg breakfast burrito, adding chilaquiles and avocado. For the torta, I go for a milanesa torta, also with chilaquiles, and it's a ton of super delicious food. You really can't mess it up. The service is awesome, and the wait time is usually super quick. So, I totally recommend hitting up Tito's for their breakfast burritos or tortas de milanesa. And don't forget to add your favorite chilaquiles! Plus, the prices are really fair.”

“I always love supporting my culture’s food, and Monorom absolutely delivered. Not to brag… but I think Khmer people make the best beef skewers (Sach Ko Ang), and these were packed with flavor and grilled to perfection.
The bok lahong (Cambodian papaya salad) hit the spot with that perfect balance of tangy, spicy, and refreshing. The curry was rich, comforting, and absolutely amazing—especially with the fresh bread for dipping.
If you’ve never had Cambodian food, Monorom is a great place to start. Proud to support a restaurant that shares a piece of Khmer culture with the community. ❤🇰🇭”
“My roommate decided to try the coffee after hearing about it through a friend in CA (we are in RI). My roommate says it is by far one of the best coffees he has ever tasted. Very aromatic! Smooth and just, well, a must try! It was also ground well, packaging was great, delivery was on time. Website was easy to use. We'll be back for another shipment!”

“Adrian was amazing as always!!!! Matthew was new and did awesome. Had a great time celebrating our daughter's birthday. They had eaten previously so they didn't order a meal but we HAD to have them try our food. The hubby and I ordered the 3 for $60. We did get one dessert for our daughter but the other was forgotten. Bummer for us. But we didn't make any deal of it. The staff is always so awesome. And the manager was very friendly and sweet. This is our go to spot when we aren't at BOA in Manhattan Beach. We are hard core on great service. And the food here is delicious. I love their filet mignon. The bar area is dressy casual. Dressing in the dining room is more dressy. No hats at all or street wear. I mean who really wants that ? I sure don't.”
“The drinks were fantastic! Went on a night where there was a love band, everyone was dancing, it was an absolute blast!!! Don't expect table service though. They brown nose some patrons and ignore the rest. If youre not one of the privileged elite you'll have to go to the bar to irder/pick up on your own.”
“If you’re looking for a fun, vibrant spot to enjoy delicious Filipino food in Long Beach, Noypitz Bar and Grill is a must-visit! From the moment you step in, you’re greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere that’s perfect for both casual hangouts and special occasions.
The menu here is top-notch—they’ve got all the Filipino classics you love, but with a modern twist. The sisig is a crowd favorite, sizzling hot and packed with flavor. Another must-try is their adobo—rich, savory, and perfectly balanced. But what really sets Noypitz apart is their signature cocktails and refreshing drinks that pair perfectly with their food. You have to try their Mango Mojito or a chilled San Miguel to really get the full experience!
What makes Noypitz even more special is the live band playing in the background. The music creates a lively vibe that keeps the energy up, while still allowing you to enjoy your meal and conversation. It’s the perfect combination of good food, great drinks, and amazing entertainment. The whole place has this laid-back, yet trendy feel—ideal for hanging out with friends, family, or even on a date night.
The service is impeccable too. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always on top of things, making sure you're well taken care of throughout your visit. It's clear that everyone here takes pride in making sure you have a great experience.
Overall, Noypitz is one of the best spots in Long Beach for a mix of great Filipino food, drinks, and live music. Highly recommend it if you’re in the area—you won’t be disappointed!”
“❤️🥰😁❤️😁🥰❤️😍🤩❤️😎🥳❤️ We love Enrique's and their entire family ! They are such wonderful, kind and loving people who help so many people in need and we all love their food and we love them XOXOXOXOXOXOXO Love, Chris and Larry Laulhere”

“The owner she always smile and welcome 🙏 people with open arms. Her husband not kichof a talker. She have a bubble 🫧 😍 personalities, kind, positive energy, consistent with her resturant. I drove without traffic one hour some mins, there. Going back home max two hours. So, it is worth it. Everytime I usually go, is on the week days. Weekend it's pretty busy.”

The owner Chuckie Miller knows how to make sure everyone has the Best time!! Drinks/ Sports/ Music/ Conversation!!”
“Blown away by this restaurant. The sushi is genuinely amazing, not just “good for vegans sushi,” just great sushi, full stop. Whatever they’re doing with the flavor profiles is unlike anything we’ve had elsewhere; there’s a depth and creativity to the rolls that kept us guessing in the best way. Portions are excellent too, we left completely full and happy. Great value for what you get. A big thank you to the whole one-man team here. If you’re anywhere near Long Beach and you eat plant-based, or not, this is a must-visit. we’ll be back. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-24”
“We came in for breakfast and enjoyed it very much! Skillet with eggs and French toast breakfast both outstanding! Generous portions, friendly staff. We also got breakfast sandwiches for pick up twice while staying in long beach for vacation. Croissant breakfast sandwich a must!”
“Free The Hangover Breakfast Burger for Rewards members
Free food? I'm in! Especially with no purchase necessary! Receiving a notification email about the free The Hangover Breakfast Burger valid all day only on 2/9/26, I couldn't wait to visit the nearest Carl's when the time came. I used to be a frequent Carl's Jr. customer, when one was located in Cerritos, during my high school years. Alas, since it closed decades ago, I've rarely visited another location, even though there is one in nearby Lakewood & at the Long Beach Town Centre. Shopping at Whole Foods 365 at LBX, I swung by this Carl's Jr. for my free burger.
The Hangover Breakfast Burger-
Stuffed with an all-beef patty, 2 Cherrywood bacon strips, processed American cheese, scrambled egg, hash rounds & ketchup, the breakfast burger was filling & satisfying. Virtually no wait, as I pulled up the QR code promo in the app, and burgers were already prepared and warming under heat lamps. Very old school. Reminds me of the days when fast food restaurants would assembly line their burgers, and have them under heat lamps for God know how long, awaiting the next customer.
Service was good. The gentleman behind the register was friendly, and as previously stated, no wait. The password protected restroom was clean, as was the restaurant, itself.
Keep these great promos coming, Carl's Jr! I enjoyed my free The Hangover Breakfast Burger, and I think I should visit more often, ordering a Famous Star, Superstar or Western Bacon Cheeseburger, doused with House dressing, just like the old days. Plus, I can't possibly forget their Crisscut (now waffle) fries. Those, along with Arby's curly fries, were my favorite fast food fries.
Recommend!”
“Great food!!! Even better service!!! The owner Tony is amazing. I truly appreciate that the food is always fresh and cooked perfectly. The chicken is so juicy and tender. I love the fries. All of the employees do a great job with customer service and just making you feel welcome. I eat here at least 3 times a week. It's a must try!”
“Love love love the food , great dinner I fly out here just for this place”
“One of the best restaurants in Long Beach for Peruvian, style, seafood, ceviche, and Sushi. Family owned and operated with a friendly vibe and amazing service.”
“I loved the vegan broth options! Glad we could find a place that has more vegan friendly broth and toppings! Our server Jeraldine was awesome and she took care of our complicated order due to our food allergies! We will be back again!”
“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 love this place!! There food is absolutely amazing, as is their customer service! Recommend the mushrooms for an appetizer and bread pudding for dessert!!”
“The food and staff were amazing. The oxtails and greens were fire!!! Best I’ve had in a long time. And treat yourself to an empanada and lemonade. Deliciouso!!”
“Celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and had a fabulous dinner with amazing service.”
“Food was delicious. Dessert was FANTASTIC. Definitely returning. Our server was so kinda and helpful . Recommend great drinks and food . I believe his name was Javier . Older Latin gentleman. Thank you”

“Having heard of its excellent reputation, I visited this restaurant for lunch. Although they offer a wide variety of menu options, I decided to try the recommended dish; Khao Soi with Chicken (curry noodle soup), and it was far more delicious than I had imagined.
The prices are also reasonable, making it highly recommendable. Despite the restaurant being crowded, their staffs were super friendly. It is definitely a place I would like to visit again!!”
“Had an amazing meal in a chic and cozy booth with spot-on decor, food presentation & atmosphere. Great margaritas!”
“I absolutely loved my first time here, JAIROL was hands down amazing customer service. He was super friendly and attentive. He was super nice to my daughter and funny to my parents and I.”
“Great service and great food! My family loves this place!! 👍🏻”
“I just got back from going here with my daughter and I always recommend this spot to family and friends, I’ve been a fan of this place since I first went about four years ago.on a date. Such delicious food and unique options on the menu. I also like the atmosphere and the people that work there are always really friendly andcool people.”
“Great beer. Great CS. BUT, beer menu is not what is offered on the actual current beer menu. Also, food menu is not up to date. Asked for 2 burgers and had to settle for one i didnt want. Please. Just update to current day menus. Thank you”
“This is an excellent restaurant in an attractive space with attentive service. For the quality, the price is more than fair.
The traditional ceviche with fish was fresh, complex, and came with multiple sauces. The empanadas were perfectly done, with the fish ones being a bit strong for our taste and the shrimp ones being really outstanding. We also had very rich, very filling Tacos Perrones whose fish was perfectly done. They serve fried tortillas instead of corn chips, which is both attractive and delicious. My only complaint would be that my margarita was kind of light on the alcohol.
Long Beach is lucky to have this place.”

You can really tell that they put a lot of thought into their recipes, and you can taste the quality. My only ask is that they add baby back ribs to their menu!”
“Always good food. Started eating there a few years ago when I just happened to hear about what the owner did for a customer that had his food eaten by a food delivery service driver. Stand up guy! Always a good interaction when I stop in! Highly recommend them. The garlic noodles are delicious”

Friendly service. Please build a restaurant in Richmond, IN !!!
(We have more than enough burger joints.)”
“Fun gay bar with karaoke, gogo boys, sports leagues on Sunday afternoons, and good cocktails. Some of the bartenders know how to make classic drinks like the “Sidecar”. A beautiful patio with blooming bougainvillea and orchids. The owner obviously puts a lot of love into this gay bar.”
“Tarantella on 4th in Long Beach is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, it feels less like a restaurant and more like stepping into a vibrant art gallery—every corner is full of personality and creative energy. The food is on another level—freshly made daily, and you can truly taste the difference in every bite. It’s the kind of place where quality and care shine through in every dish. If you're looking to unwind, the outdoor patio is a hidden oasis—intimate, relaxing, and perfect for enjoying a great meal with friends or family. Owners Carlos & Megan have created something really special here: a warm, family-friendly spot with amazing food and genuinely excellent service that makes you feel right at home. Yes, parking in the area can be a bit of a challenge—but trust me, it’s absolutely worth the effort. Tarantula on 4th is one of those places you’ll keep coming back to!those places you’ll keep coming back to!”

“The drinks at this bar were really good but the servers weren't the greatest. Despite the sub part customer service my girlfriend and I still enjoy our drinks.”
“We went here for the AYCE sushi and got the premium menu because we're visiting Socal for vacation. Absolutely phenomenal with the service and food! I love how friendly the staff was to us and explained how the process actually work. There are leftover fee + only order what you can eat! Definitely should ask for recommendations and they provide you a menu with pictures. I would absolutely come back here again! The parking lot is kinda small, but we were able to find a spot before the dinner rush.”
“Kihon is the BEST sushi restaurant in Long Beach hands down. Go enjoy the tastiest food and you can thank me later! 😀”
“amazing food and service! My husband and I used to live nearby and always came when it was Tai Silk. We now live in San Pedro but we'll be back for sure.”

It was light and sweet but not too sweet! Ordering has been easy and she delivers :) thanks for your top notch customer service. I will be reaching out again soon!”
“Tried this place for their lunch special the other day with a friend and we were blown away at how good it was. Standard dishes like Pad See Ew and Pad Thai were next level compared to other Thai places in taste and freshness. So if the easy dishes are that good - rest of the food must be incredible. Will definitely be coming here frequently!”

“THIS PLACE IS AMAZING in the best possible way. Today I went for lunch with my 90 year old mother, my wife, and our two teenagers - a pretty diverse group, and not real easy to please. Everybody was extremely happy with what they ordered - the only complaint was from my wife, saying afterwards that she had "eaten too much" but couldn't stop because it was so delicious! She had the "heart stopper" burger, which includes bacon and a fried egg. My son and I often split two plates so we can try more things, and the pastrami sandwich and Frisco burger were both GREAT. I should have ordered the Pastrami on grilled rye - personal preference - but the roll it was served on was still very fresh. My daughter ordered the pastrami as well, and she loved hers. Grandma got the Reuben, and is looking forward to finishing it for dinner (huge sandwich for an old lady). We also tried the fried zucchini - best I've had in many years. Great fries and onion rings as well. I think that this may have just become our new family joint for a quick bite. My only regret is that I didn't find it earlier...... I spoke briefly with the manager, and he was really nice - working hard, because of the lunch rush, but was clearly committed to providing great food and great service.”

“To John Hansen, My wife and I would like to thank you for such a lovely evening. Chez Bacchus represents the “True Expression of a Dining Experience”. Starting with the welcoming staff at the entrance. John, your hospitality is the beginning of the joyful experience. The restaurant is so elegant. We enjoyed the vaulted ceilings with wood beams. We enjoyed the large window at the kitchen area so you can see the Chefs at work. We got to sit next to the impressive wine rack display. The restaurant’s ambiance wouldn’t be complete without the soft background music. Our waiter, Issac, was a delight. He provided us with his expertise in choosing our wines, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. It was a pleasure to meet to give special thanks to the Chef, Danny Le and Su Chef, Donald. Their expertise is why we had an amazing and delicious dinner.”

“Adrian was amazing as always!!!! Matthew was new and did awesome. Had a great time celebrating our daughter's birthday. They had eaten previously so they didn't order a meal but we HAD to have them try our food. The hubby and I ordered the 3 for $60. We did get one dessert for our daughter but the other was forgotten. Bummer for us. But we didn't make any deal of it. The staff is always so awesome. And the manager was very friendly and sweet. This is our go to spot when we aren't at BOA in Manhattan Beach. We are hard core on great service. And the food here is delicious. I love their filet mignon. The bar area is dressy casual. Dressing in the dining room is more dressy. No hats at all or street wear. I mean who really wants that ? I sure don't.”
“I have heard of SPFM before and wanted to go. We tried to go before our cruise, but it was closing. Made it a point to go as soon as we got off the cruise, we'll after the USS Iowa tour and was blown away!! Very good!!! The staff are all friendly and the food was amazing!! But be careful, the shrimp plate is not for the light eater. I am fully stuffed! Highly Recommend!! Thank You SPFM!”
“It was a really great happy hour experience! Though next time I think I'll avoid going when there's a large sports event going on. It was so loud my friend and I had to yell at eachother the whole time. But if you're into sports I assume it would be a fantastic environment!”
“I can definitely say my first impression was not a good one. Our original waitress came to our table without greeting us or introducing herself. She immediately asked for our drink order, never told us her name, and then left us waiting without much communication. We also had two kids with us, but no one mentioned that there was a kids' menu. At that point, I was honestly ready to walk out.
Thankfully, the experience completely turned around thanks to the manager, Bobby, and our new server, Julian. They both provided outstanding customer service, made us feel welcome, and completely changed the atmosphere of our visit. Their professionalism and attentiveness made all the difference.
Because of Bobby and Julian, we'll definitely be back. Thank you both for turning what started as a disappointing experience into a great one.”
“Located in Shoreline Village and very convenient walk on the overpass if you are staying at the Hyatt.
Fun atmosphere, good chips and salsa, the margaritas are big and delicious. Their carne asada is a must and I had the combination with garlic shrimp. A friend had the fajitas and loved them as well.
The staff is friendly and accommodating and sitting out on the patio on a pretty day a must.
If you are driving, the parking is paid, but most restaurants will validate so your fee is lowered.”

“Recently discovered Dave’s, especially the Hot Mozz’s thanks to instagram and all of the people showing themselves eating Mozz from Dave’s Hot Chicken. Dave’s did not disappoint, the Mozz were amazing and service at the Long Beach Circle Dave’s was great. I have to point out that Lizzy who took my order is an absolute angel, very professional and so accommodating. I’ve been there wove and she has provided the best service. Keep up the great work 🥰”
“1000% will be back! I was at the laundromat next door and ran over for a quick lunch while my clothes were in the dryer. The service was impeccable and quick, food was delicious, and portions were spot on. I had the breakfast bowl and an order of mini pancakes and will have enough for a second meal. You can tell it’s all made by hand and with love, fresh and hot. The restaurant was also clean and comfortable with plenty of street parking nearby. There is a laundromat next door too - so you could give yourself a little treat while your clothes are in the dryer.”

“The ribeye sandwich is my favorite but the salad I’ve been trying to cut down on my weight for the summer by eating a lot of salads they have the Greek salad the chicken salad seafood salad. Oh my God they’re all amazing. The food is amazing. I come here it’s a little small cuisine here in Long Beach on Long Beach Boulevard but you can’t go wrong coming to this place. The food is fresh. It’s clean the facilities clean it’s nice if you haven’t tried it try it at least try it once I guarantee you you’ll be a regular customer.”

“Friendly service, amazing baked goods! I was excited to bring my daughter (a vegan), but I had no idea how much I (an omnivore) would love these pastries! I'm not a big baked goods person, but OMG, everything we ordered was delicious!!! We got an Ube ensaymada, a pandan cinny bun, a crinkle cookie, and a pinapig salted chocolate chip cookie -- every one of our choices was incredible!!!
We are looking forward to trying more things on our next visit!! We're also excited to try some savory items.”
“The brisket was amazing! When I get brisket at other places it's dry and not flavorful. Here, it was perfection. The Mac n cheese, beans, and potato salad were all delicious. You can really tell that they put a lot of thought into their recipes, and you can taste the quality. My only ask is that they add baby back ribs to their menu!”
“I can’t even begin to explain how delicious the food is here! Every taco has a different flavor profile, and each one is like a work of art—unique to itself and full of flavor! You have to try them all to find your favorite. Mine is the shrimp! The combination of ingredients in their salads are also so perfectly balanced, I don’t think I’ve had a better and more filling salad anywhere! I highly recommend the beet salad. Their grilled veggies are also so simple yet delicious! I like sitting outside at the bar to eat, but inside is also cute and cozy. The ultimate bonus: the owners are the sweetest couple!”

“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.”
