Alter Ego is a hidden gem inside the Fairmont Breakers in Long Beach, offering a cozy and sophisticated lounge experience perfect for date nights or relaxing evenings. The ambiance is dark, cool, and intimate, with low lighting, a towering Christmas tree during the holidays, and live music starting at 7 PM, creating a moody and grown-up vibe. The space is designed to be a perfect hideaway where guests can hear each other talk, making it ideal for conversations and special occasions. The service is consistently praised for being attentive, professional, and friendly, with staff going above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience. The bartenders take pride in their craft, serving exceptional cocktails like Old Fashioneds — perfectly balanced and smooth — along with other drinks such as Dirty Martini, Chocolate Martini, French 75, and Naked & Sunburnt, all well-balanced and boozy in the best way. While the menu is small, the food options like Mushroom Flatbread and Prosciutto di Parma with melon are flavorful, though some dishes like crab and artichoke dip may miss the mark. The location also offers parking via valet for only $10, making it convenient and accessible. Overall, Alter Ego combines great drinks, a chic atmosphere, live music, and genuine hospitality, making it a great spot for a date, a relaxing night out, or even a Silver Singles date. Its ambiance, quality drinks, and excellent service make it a standout choice for those seeking a classy yet cozy lounge experience.
