“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.“

“I was looking for a quiet local place to ask my best friends to be my bridesmaids. I came across Slay and immediately booked a table! They were so accommodating when I arrived and poured me a much needed glass of champagne. Food was amazing! Bottomless mimosas were fantastic and you even get to choose different juices to add. My favorite was guava! Thank you Slay for helping me with such a memorable moment.“

“Every time I go that store is empty, no workers, just lack of awareness. I'm on the on the checkout for like a while before someone comes to charge me. Customer service here sucks but because of the food that's why I am still going back. The owner or chain management whatever has to really keep eye on this store. I have gone to others and this one for some reason it just lacks awareness of who's at their store. They really better be careful and hire people that want to work there, not disappearing or in the bad mood.“

“terrific food. very flavorful and healthy.“

“Good quality food. Healthy options. Great service. My favorite is the braised beef and mushroom with mashed potatoes. The mango tart is amazing.“

Kid-friendliness: Love how they have cookies for the kiddos my kids love them“

“It was hard to find the restaurant because it was in the back corner of a business complex. It's very easy to miss, but there's plenty of parking at least. Me and 2 friends ordered from the kiosk and waited about 15m for 3 sandwiches and fries. Inside it's quite small with only a table and bar with 4 seats each.

I got the Signature Sandwich with LVL 2 sauce. The sandwich was massive, and the chicken was so thick, incredibly juicy, and perfectly cooked. The breading and cabbage were crunchy too. The mayo was a creamy complement to the chicken without being overpowering. The spicy sauce was served on the side, and it was so deliviously flavorful and not only spicy. My only complaint here is that I wish there was more spicy sauce and that it was spread inside the sandwich, because I kept forgetting to drizzle sauce on between bites and still ran out.

The salt and vinegar fries tasted exactly like the Lay's flavor but with more potato from the fries, of course. Honestly the fries were nothing special but they gave so much that the box was overflowing.

I tried my friend's Kimchi Egg Sandwich too. The ham was pretty forgettable or missable, but the egg was delicious. The egg was incredibly moist, sweet, and delicately salty, and it paired well with the mild acidity of the kimchi.

We chatted with the owner a bit when we picked up our food and she was very sweet and kind. She made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. I hope more people check this place out, because it's unfortunately very missable in its current location. I'm going to come back but will definitely share a sandwich next time.“

“IF I CAN ADD 10 STARS I WOULD CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS A1 OWNER WAS SUPER POLITE & EXTREMELY NICE! FOOD WAS REALLY GOOD AND I COULD TELL THAT IT WAS MADE WITH LOVE! THE WHOLE PLACE IS CLEAN AND I CAN TELL THAT THE OWNER CARES ABOUT OUR SAFETY ENVIRONMENT! WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS TO MY POEPLE AND WILL COME BACK AGAIN!!!!“

“Met up here with a friend on a random Friday for late breakfast. The soyrizo skillet was fantastic! I also had a bite of my friend's almond croissant and it was literally the best one I have ever had. Food came out quick. I can imagine that some days that parking is terrible, but both my friend and I parked within the block.“

“Clean, and fresh tasting food.“

“Long Beach is becoming a food hub rivaling LA. It can go toe to toe with DTLA and its neighborhoods. Straight up. Sesame dinette is another punch 🥊. It hits. Delicious banh mi and meatballs..yes I said meatballs. Everything is sexy and succulent. On top of all that a vegan Vietnamese coffee topped with salted pandan. That’s crazy.“

“Always Fresh & Delicious 😋“

“Freshly made food, several flavors to choose from, the chicken is nice and crispy, never greasy and definitely white meat! Downside is just that since it is not precooked it does take a while to wait for your meal, and the atmosphere is that of fast food with uncomfortable seats, loud music, and voices carry very well making this a very loud environment and difficult to visit with friends or family while eating in. They do have a patio you could take advantage of but it's right next to PCH and a busy side street.
I do like the option of ordering at the kiosk, I don't like that it still asks for you to leave a tip even though you pick your own food up at the counter and clean up after yourself. Otherwise, in the future I will be ordering ahead and just picking up and eating at home or on the beach!“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“Delicious food and friendly workers“

“Love this place for healthy, ready-to-go meals. Love the Lemon Chicken Caesar Salad and the Chicken Pesto Pasta! Best part? Reasonably priced, and easy to tote/pack(hint: I’ve taken them onboard planes for a healthier, less expensive option to airport/airplane food)“

“Many beers, schnitzel, sausages, currywurst, pretzels (love them!), I highly recommend Rasselbock!“

“The Reason for food being 3 is because although the sandwich i had was very good, it was nothing new or different. It was just the wich itself if you wanted a side it was extra and they were bagged chips the beer selection was nice though i always come back for that.“

“Love my Salad 💕💕It was the bomb 💣“

“best pizza! great in-house bread“

“Definitely try this place if you have not yet. It’s a mom and pop with a modern approach, the food does not lack, it is incredible. Chicken shawarma plate is my favorite!

Update: added a photo of the meal- they are so sweet and really care about the food they make! You get so much for a reasonable price.“

“Best Persian food in Torrance“

“I can't wait for this location to open!!! I never tried their food but I seen there advertisement everywhere especially on Tictok . I rather visit a real store than having ship so that why I been waiting. They been opening so many locations but this location might be the closest to me.“

“In my 60 years (GASP) on this planet I have NEVER EVER had such an amazingly great pizza!! You cannot go wrong here!!“

“Great salad! Love the option to add your favorite veggies 🥗“

“It’s Ghost kitchen style, no seating, no cashier, just tablets and food lockers that open once you put in the code the text/email you. So Order before you go there.

There is a parking lot less than a minutes drive down 14th street .
Great food, made fast, and pretty convenient.“

“Amazing Experience! The Food is Delicious and Creative. The Margarita’s are just as unique and delicious, and the STAFF make you feel at home❣️🤗 Great Staff, Delicious Food & Great Drinks! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you for your wonderful hospitality❣️“

“This is our 2nd time here at the restaurant.
Very clean, quiet, pleasant, and the service was up scale and staff was very friendly, helpful (came out to help us to select/pick/choose our food items).
A little pricy, though, but the food was good and tasty, that's important to us.“

“Pizza was very good! 🔥 would definitely recommend to anyone in the Long Beach vicinity! High quality pizza, I would go there again, and again, and again!“

Everyone here is enjoying themselves because they are getting great tasting food, drinks and desserts, with excellent service and at inexpensive prices (hard to believe nowadays, I know!). Enjoy ?“

“Good pizza, accompanied with wings, and you can't miss the salad, oh and lasagna. Everything is delicious.

Vegetarian options: It's my first time going, so I don't have much knowledge of the menu, but what I ate was really delicious.“

“We gave up eating meat this year, so finding restaurants dedicated to meatless have been hard to find. The food here is fantastic. Fresh and really tasty. The chicken sandwich was my favorite. If you gave me that sandwich I would never guess it's meatless. Will be back.“

After about 10 minutes of waiting this wonder was in front of me ready to be my late lunch (3 PM ish)
Wonderful service as well.

Next time (maybe today) I'll try the Tiger Roll.
Thank you!“

“Went yesterday with my Daughters and can I say the food was so amazing. It was everything I hoped it to be. We came all the way from L. A and it was worth the drive. We will definitely be back! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Ordered double green and Hawaiian via Grubhub o na Sunday night. Quick service and delivery time, Pizza was warm on arrival and was good. The Double Green (placed vegan cheese on it) and Hawaiian were both good, crusts were baked perfect (light crisp). Pizza big enough to serve 2-3 people.“

“Lunada Kitchen serves great quality food and the service is always with a smile. This locally run restaurant is right across a beautiful park and walkable to some of the most pristine sea bluffs in all of CA. It’s perfect place for a coffee or a meal after a nice walk.“

“Besides the fact that this is the highest quality food available at the most affordable prices I've ever seen, they apparently hire saints to work the counter. It's so refreshing to be treated like a human being around here. Thank you.“
