“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.“

“Everything is amazing 🤩 🤩“

“terrific food. very flavorful and healthy.“

“Amazing assortment of breads! So many great pastries! A nice and relaxing atmosphere with friendly service!“

“Visited OakBerry Açaí in Hollywood and was pleasantly surprised to find one in Los Angeles. Loved the variety of options they offer with their açaí bowls—fresh, flavorful, and customizable. A great spot for a healthy and refreshing treat. Would definitely visit again!“

“This place is always busy. We find seating there at the counter and we do not need to wait for 20 minutes. We love the bean soup? And the apple pie was great.“

“The chocolate pistachio vegan don’t was the best I’ve ever had!“

“Food here is outstanding! We picked our food to go for an impromptu picnic at the park and enjoyed eveything. The carbonara was a knock out, very rich and decadent. All the pastries were yum, but the morning bun was our favorite. And the sandwiches are so well constructed with bread that was obviously baked fresh.

Only thing ill say is the patio is not good for large parties so if you intend to dine in, the seating there it ideal for parties of 2 or 4.“

“I absolutely love your Pastries, the Vanilla Oat Milk was a recommendation from one of the workers and it was a hit!“

“Been going there for years, the best bakery in SoCal. Every time I bring a cake or cookies to a gathering, everyone always asks where I got them from!“

“A group of friends got together for a retirement dinner celebration. The food, service, and ambiance were outstanding. Our server was helpful with appetizers (calamari and shared salads) and wine recommendations - including suggested half portions for some of the larger pasta entrees. A truly great dinner experience in a convenient Long Beach location!“

“Absolutely amazing spot. Friends brought me to try and loved it! Wonderful customer service too.“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“Amazing vegan menu. 💕 definitely worth a visit. Will stop in next time we are in town.“

“Friendly staff. great pie“

“Our Sunday night takeout meal of Roasted Chicken and Cheese, corn and bacon macaroni gratin was delicious. Paired with a nice French white wine, it was almost as good as eating at the restaurant. Looking forward to future offerings.“

“Absolutely delicious Beautiful setting too“

“My new favorite!! We will be back!“

“I bought a half dozen cookies yesterday. They were delicious, and my family loved them. Birthday cake was my favorite flavor.“

“One of all favorites branch place in Redondo Beach area, they close at 2 PM. We love their hot and fresh food after order doesn’t take more than 15 minutes. Parking is a little hassle, but it’s still worth it. If you go 2/3 blocks away, you can easily find parking. Before you go, make sure to get in the line from yelp otherwise you have to wait in the line. Service is excellent.“

“Yummy everything is delicious“

“Very good coffee.
My personal favorite is the mocha..which I have to say is excellent most of the time. Most of the time, because I don't feel like different baristas are trained to make it one specific way. Which is what I want in coffee.. consistency.
Luckily, most of the time it's really good.
I love their patio..its among the prettiest I've ever been to..people don't seem to use it more for some reason.“

“Cara Mia catered my mother-in-law's memorial service beautifully and on quite short notice. The owner was so incredibly kind and helped us pick out the right things to feed 30+ people, was super responsive via email, and even met us in person when we picked up our order to offer her heartfelt condolences. They went above and beyond to help make this difficult day easier and we were blown away not only by their compassion, but the quality of their baked goods! The memorial guests devoured everything and many of them remarked to us how great the food was :) I can't recommend Cara Mia enough and hope to visit again under happier circumstances. Thank you!!!!“

“We love Yanagi. Fabulous and fresh sushi, great service and there always seems to be a table for us. My tiny humans, age 10 and 7, love their sushi. At Yanagi, they are always well taken care of.“

“Wow so freaking good!! Genuinely the best bowl I’ve ever had. I got the mixed grilled chicken bowl with lemon thyme sauce while my boyfriend got the same but with the chipotle sauce. Both were great! Pretty cute they wrote a little thank you note on the take out box too:)

If I were to complain about anything it would be to add a little more protein portion to eat bowl. Otherwise I highly recommend this place!“

“Stopped by on Tuesday cause it was near my cousins house and didnt want to show up empty handed for a visit, Manys Donuts was not only convenient but afforded an old school dining experience. The hostesses generosity and hospitality are a major plus. Donuts are fresh and the texture of their pastries are perfect. Definitely will be stopping by next week.“

“Croque madame, croissant ou chocolate, chocolate ou lavande, soup de’oignon“

“Simplemente Deliciosos todos los sabores � mmmmm!!“

“Excellent food and Bartenders.(service!)“

“Lovely service from the waitress. She was very sweet and hospitable. This location is ideal for 2 people. There’s only one large table in the center of the restaurant. We ordered the fried rice and added chicken. We also got the pad see ew and added beef. Both dishes were flavorful and delicious. The only disappointment were the crab ragoons. I’m used to a thicker cream cheese taste with the bits of crab and these had more of a liquid-ish cheese with bell peppers. In all fairness, I personally do not like bell peppers. The ragoons do not deter me from returning. I would definitely come back.“

“Yummy doughnuts , seasonal flavors“

“Natural dog tears shop“

“I love their gluten free veggie lover pizza with vegan cheese! So yummy! They make the pizza from scratch. Vegan people in South Bay must eat this ;) Very nice & friendly owner and staff too :)“

“I have been taking ceramics classes here for 3 years. It's outstanding. Very well-run studio with lots of space, top quality equipment. The instructors are excellent, very knowledgeable and anxious to help you improve. The other students are a lot of fun to be with and are also very supportive and encouraging. Very reasonably priced classes. There are also lots of events, and gallery shows. It's a great resource for the community.“

“The pastries and baked goods are delicious, but really, the food is the best. Go for lunch, you will not regret it.“

“This is my first time trying thier product... all I can say is it's absolutely amazing! wish we had this type of idea in Canada!!“

“Excellent experience last night! We ordered the Avocado Eggrolls and shared a Hawaiian pizza…delicious! Madison is fantastic server…she was lovely and very knowledgeable on the menu. A+“

“Always fresh, tasty and healthy. And the server is very best!“

“This specific location is the best. From the waiter Christopher to the servers and manager was perfect! And perfect doesn't really describe it. When I do go back it will be to this particular location and I will be asking for Christopher again. The food was amazing, the drinks were perfect. Thank you Long Beach for the best experience!“

“😋 just the right among of sweetness without the guilt of a hangover!“

“A pizza place with ricotta cheese is always a great sign. Open until 1am, serves Boba and milk tea, and offers various selections of desserts also.

The staff is kind and warm. Offers red crushed peppers and parmesan for FREE! Not many pizza places offer that these days.

Cute atmosphere with the skateboards. Hope to see more from this pizza place.“

“The girl with the blond hair was so nice she made want to keep coming back to this location. I recommend this location and the smoothies and açaí bowls are delicious.“
