Food was delicious! Focaccia with anchovy dip was my fave although the carrots were a close second!
We were walk ins and it almost seemed like they wouldn’t be able to seat us so probably best to make a res on the weekend. Other than that the service was on point and the open kitchen was nice to see the masters at work with such a confident demeanor!
Highly recommend!

Great food and ambience and service! Excellent all around. The chef takes pride in his masterpieces and examines every dish before it is served to the customer. We tried 2 appetizers and 2 entrees and they were all absolutely scrumptious and delicious.. Service was excellent and the atmosphere is great! welcoming and cool and relaxing! It’s great to have such a great restaurant in Long Beach. Thank you for such a great experience.. looking forward to trying the rest of the chef handcrafted menu!

I had a fantastic brunch experience at Bar Becky. The restaurant has an upscale atmosphere with great music and a really nice ambiance. Every dish we ordered was amazing. The biscuits were perfect, the Tiramisu Ricotta Doughnuts were a unique and delicious treat, and the Chicken Fried Steak was one of the best I've ever had. The food was not only incredible but also thoughtfully presented. Highly recommend!

The chef owner, who is an alumni from Cypress College, created an incredible experience at this restaurant. Everything is exceptional from the moment you walk in the door. The service is amazing and the food is beyond spectacular.

Phenomenal experience!!!! Went for my birthday with a group of friends. The food was divine, service so personalized and attentive, and the vibes were great. 10/10 food and experience. These folks care deeply about what they are doing and it shows. Can’t wait to go back again soon. 🙏🏽💗

We went there for the first time for my friend’s birthday dinner. They offer a $40 prix fixe menu. The food was delicious, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We’d definitely like to go back.

Fantastic ingredients, reasonable portions, and fresh preparations make for a range of delectable dishes.
The three course menu makes for an excellent sampling of appetizer, entre, and dessert for $40, though my one complaint is that all entres offered lacked any significant protein. It does appear the menu is updated semi regularly, so maybe this is isolated to the one I happened upon.
The crispy eggplant was by far the stand out dish - I each piece was cooked to perfection with a crispy exterior and a delicate interior, with no hint of mushiness that can plague overcooked eggplants. The sauce, pickled peppers, and pine nuts all worked together to add complementary flavors & textures. Absolutely 10/10.
The mushroom pasta (whose name I can't remember nor find online) was decent, but outside of a couple large chunks lacked a particularly strong mushroom presence. It may have also been my poor choice of pairing, but it did not work well with White wine, going particularly bland on the tongue after taking a sip of wine and only returning to it's normal, mild flavor after a few bites when the fats/oils in the sauce have a chance to recoat the tongue. That being said, I found myself feeling there was something lacking from the dish, though I'm not sure what. Perhaps a bit more salt or even some garlic? Despite this, it was still a solid dish overall: 7/10
Lastly, the bread pudding: a combination of the smoothest, creamiest peanut butter mousse sprinkled with frozen raspberries and a syrupy raspberry sauce produced an accompanying flavor profile that worked delightfully with the fresh, warm bread pudding slice. My only nitpick is that, while presented beautifully, the deconstructed setup made it challenging to get a bit of each flavor on every bite. Still, easily an 8.5/10.

Excellent food and service. If you like modern Italian food, you should come and give it a try. My branzino was excellent and my wife loved her gnocchi.
I’ve been a fan of Chef Jonathon since Hells Kitchen appearance. My son has been going to Bar Becky for months now. Finally visited Long Beach and got a chance.
Restaurant is very comfortable and airy. Staff are unbelievable, super nice.
We had chef’s menu that was amazing. 6 plates (I think) that were beautifully prepared and excellent. Chef explained each dish (some too fancy for me to understand 😀) but all were superb. Had house made limoncello to wrap up the nite.
Saw several other dishes being prepared that were not on our menu (gnocchi) that appeared excellent and mouthwatering!
Cannot wait to go back. Thank you Chef!

Food is delicious, staff is attentive, but portions are small for a high price. It’s one of those places that give you a fancy looking plate with about 7 bites worth of food — although those 7 bites will be fantastic. Of what we ordered, the focaccia bread and the gnocchi were our favorites.
