New American Restaurants in Long Beach, CA

“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!!!“

“We had a 40th college reunion there. The ambience was perfect, food was great and the staff were wonderful! Everyone had a great time!“

“Tasty dinners! Do the wine dinner.“

“Dined here this evening. We enjoyed some Cocktails to start then ordered Beef Tartare, Shrimp with Veg and Roasted Carrots. Entrees varied from Pasta to Ribeye steak and Burger. All delicious. The Carbonara needed more bacon but that was the only issue. Desserts were great. The Espresso wasn’t hot enough for my guest but overall we enjoyed the evening celebrating a birthday. Will recommend to my friends for sure. Would recommend a reservation as it was very busy by the time we left at 6.30 pm“

“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.“

“Great service. Decor was chic. Service on point, not rushed. Great place for a date.“

“Good service good food 🥘!“

“They are good. I try them whenever I'm around“

“Stopped and ate here for the first time in Vegas! It was in our top two for best food we ate all weekend. Highly recommend the spicy fries and Mac Daddy! 10 out of 10!!!“

“Fun, tasty, fast, and reasonably priced.“

“It is a calm environment, the sunset looks very beautiful. I like that you order online and pay, so there's no problem splitting bills when you go with friends. The cheese on the nachos is delicious 🤤 although I found the meat very seasoned (I don't really enjoy strong seasonings) the pretzel was delicious, the potatoes too. In general the food and drinks were very good. What I didn't like very much was the service, there are so many people that the waiters are in a hurry, one of them spilled the beer on the jacket of one of the customers and didn't seem to care much. The food comes out without a name (many times) so at large tables it is difficult to know who it belongs to and there is a lot of noise. There are also no tables for large groups so if there are more than 8-10 they will probably all be at separate tables.

Parking: There is free parking; However, it tends to get crowded, we saw a sign that said 3 hours Parking but it took a little longer and everything was fine

Kid-friendliness: Not much, although some couples brought their children, there is alcohol for sale and there is no children's area“

“I’m a local LB resident and today I took my family visiting from UK to LBX Hangar for dinner.

We decided that the hangar was really crowded and stumbled across the 908 restaurant. From the moment the staff offered us the chance to sit outside and enjoy the atmosphere to the moment we left, we were delighted by the food choices and the service.

Their mule is amazing - the freshly ground ginger is a special touch and the whole drink was so good my “one drink only” wife had another.

My sister and I both ate the Shrimp Pho Sandwich - a unique combination of flavors and definitely recommended. The goat cheese and cauliflower appetizer was fantastic.

Their tiramisu is definitely worth ordering - even without any room left.

The best words go to their staff however - the team that helped us were amazing, Attentive and eager to please. John the supervisor was instantly on top of all issues, however minor as was Ethan.

Great work, all - we will be back …“

“Everything very tasty, especially Noble Club“

“Wow! This is a hidden gem! Had a few hours until our flight out of Long Beach. Found this amazing spot for a coffee and was absolutely blown away by the owner(Shannon) and the menu! We ordered 2 coffees a sandwich and a cinnamon roll. The coffees were amazing, the owner made me a custom coffee. I asked for 'Something Sweet' and the drink was so good we ordered a 2nd one. Cinnamon roll was hot, sweet, and cream cheese frosted. Licked the bowl clean! Breakfast Sandwich was made with fresh ingredients and was so tasty! We will plan our future trips to this Airport just to have this coffee and cinnamon roll again! 10/10! Oh and the reggae music jamming is the vibe!!“

“Food was super I had the lobster linguini and calamari was very very good and the service spectacular“

“Claire’s at the Museum is aesthetically pleasing. The view is gorgeous, and the food is delicious! Spent my birthday here and it did not disappoint!! ❤️“

“We had a wonderful dining experience at Yard House. Our server, Justin, was dazzling! He was professional, friendly and attentive. The server who covered while he was on break was also present and available with equally top tier service. The steak bowl was savory and hearty as well.“

“The best shrimp n grits I've ever had.“

“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! ♥️“

“Yummy 😋 first time ever, in the heart of 2nd Street and I can't believe I've never been here. I havent eaten beef in a decade, unsure but had a taste for it today. 🤩 We shared all the goodness, short rib pizzzzzzza, BBQ scrumptious and so juicy burger, along with the poke tostada, which was piled high with aoli and fresh tartar.

The staff sets this place apart, all are welcoming, inviting and make you feel like your neighbors, including recommendations that melt in your mouth. Had to get a piece of swag memorabilia ie; truckers hat.....so much gratitude. They always say it's not just the food, yet who was a part of the taste test that matters.......highly recommended, scrumptious and delicious 😋“

“Delicious breakfasts, oh my!“

“Came by on a late Friday afternoon to grab some lunch and enjoy the beach a bit. There was a rope course playground behind the building, cornhole & a big jenga block set for the kids to enjoy while we waited for our food. We got the burger, chicken, spicy burrito. None of it was mind-blowing but still very good. The chips that came with the burg were interesting, we were unsure if they were fried in-house or not but still decent if they were. The individual that served us at the window was on-point with his service, brought out our drinks for us and gave me a bag to use for leftovers. Would recommend if you're in the area.“

“While traveling from Idaho we were fortunate to have brunch with our dear friends in Long Beach before heading out on a cruise. They took us to this quaint, fun restaurant. Spectacular service, delicious food, Hazelnut coffee, yum! Thanks for the very cool stickers!“

“Love The Crest. Amazing boutique apartment complex. Feels so homey and cozy. The leasing people are super cool and so close to everything walking distance. Oh.... and did I mention they have the most legit balconies. I spent most of my time on the beautiful balcony ❤️ I searched for a place for 3 months and this was it. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Ben’s fast food is good! Healthy food with flavor, plus it’s reasonably priced! I love food that nourishes you and doesn’t make you feel like you’re going to have a food coma, and this place definitely satisfies that. I got the chicken mixed bowl, slow roasted chickpeas & potatoes, and a dark chocolate cashew pudding. Yum! FYI, Ben’s Fast Food is at a “food locker” location - it’s decently easy to find and the pick-up process is simple. I definitely recommend this place and I plan to order from here more! Thank you, BFF (Ben’s Fast Food)!!“

“Absolute wonderful staff and service! Everything I've had the pleasure to eat at the Diner has been mouth watering and simply delicious! Always the best, never fails! Every time I visit Long Beach it is mandatory.“

“What a beautiful place. We had a wonderful evening with amazing staff. We had a large group and the staff was gracious and accommodating. Highly recommend.“

“Always have a great meal at Simmzy’s. I had cauliflower tacos and they were excellent (and I’m not a vegetarian). Sweet potato fries were great. I’m the past I’ve had the chicken tortilla soup- it’s one of the best! Pet and child friendly.“

“YUMMYLICIOUS! You want a good beefy burger, perfectly season and portioned properly.. Dude, stop by and get a real FATTY Burger and the varieties are spectacular. You mouth buds and tummy will sing a happy song. Just orders the Peyton and I am salivating already. ENJOY!“

“Great good and drinks. Great happy hour and weekly specials like Wine Wednesday. Friendly and welcoming.“

“Nicest spot on 4th street, to have great food with friends, excellent wine & drinks and maybe a coffee or two to start the day! Can’t wait for the tapas menu to start 😊❤️“

“excellent bar and live music venue. service was excellent and the bar tab was fair.“

“We’re “Regulars.” The wait staff treat us so well, and the food is terrific. We see tables populated by seniors, parents with babes in arms, post-game soccer stars, and golf buddies. This is truly a neighborhood gem!“

“Grilled Chicken pesto sammie was yummy....everything was!! Terrific service too...Thx Ryan...good fun!“

“I specialize in the renovation of kitchens, but this is Grandmas country kitchen 2.0. Both a local market and an incredibly good southern inspired restaurant, be prepared to be warmed by the good spirit of true comfort food and energy of the old days... when food took time but every1 chatted away... It was my first time here, so I didn't get a chance to really experiment on food (chicken sausage, eggs, and pancakes), but it was pleasant. Good prices and a local spot you should not miss.“

“This restaurant was amazing! Husband ate from the buffet, ($32) great variety, and he loves his omelettes. I ordered from the menu ($24) and it was the perfect size for me. And the hashbrowns! We've traveled around the world quite a bit... and these were the lightest, fluffiest I've had. Would recommend.“

“Cena Vegan is sort of a staple for vegan Mexican food if you’re in the Southern California area. I was impressed by the cloud kitchen set up here in Long Beach. The food hall is quite nice and well kept. There is a receptionist available for instruction if you’re unfamiliar with how cloud kitchens work. And of course, the food from Cena Vegan is always top notch.“

“Food was delicious! Ahí Tuna was done to perfection!“

“Soo it took me waaaayyy too long to post this review, but when we left this bar lol I didn’t remember a damn thing!! This place is ? ?? the bartender, I think Ashley, was too legit and the guy, I think Richard, were soo fun to talk too and be around! I can’t wait to visit Long Beach again because this is the place I’m going!! Best drinks I’ve honestly had since I’ve been in CA!!! ?? ??“

“beer is cold and food is good 👍 can't ask for much more“

“Awesome cocktails 🍹 and super friendly staff“

“Attached to the Courtyard Marriott, this is a solid choice for drinks and / or food, with a cheeseburger and two margaritas setting me back just over $40. There's a big screen inside that tends to show sports as well as a few outdoor tables.

Kid-friendliness: Saw lots of families with kids“

“After a long day of travel, we were just looking for a good place to eat. The VUE delivered! And we didn’t have to leave the hotel! Thank you Miguel for the excellent service!“

“Great ambiance! Great drinks! Great staff! Great food! This place is perfect!!!“

“Nice little bar and restaurant. The food was okay. If you are looking for a good steak or prime rib, I wouldn't really go here for the price you are paying. Brussel sprouts and sides were good. The beef, not so much. Friendly staff/ establishment. However, for the price I'm paying for a steak, I expected a higher execution.“

“My friend told me this is very popular fried chicken place. Only two locations in LA. So we went to try it last night.
We ordered spicy and non-spicy chicken. It’s very juicy and crispy which everyone loves. But you can tell the oil has been fried for long time already. The chicken skin tastes very oily and even a little bit bitter, I have to take off all the skin for kids.
Hope the owner can change the oil, then definitely makes the fried chicken taste better.“
