“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!!“

“First timer says really good need to go back and try something other than the lobster roll, just for a variety😋“

“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“

“Great crispy Brussels sprouts, slightly sweet with bacon, and I loved the bleu cheese on it so much!they must have been out of wine/ champagne glasses for my drink. It was happy hour during the week, not very busy. I’m an out of towner but would probably go again next time and try their sandwiches“

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

“Excellent restaurant the wine was amazing in the ceviche so delish thank you we will be back“

“This is a common spot for me to come with my family or significant other. I tend to always have a good or spectacular experience. Tonight, was no exception. Despite the bad service I encountered with one of my servers, Jen ( Manager) was able to correct the bad experience and rectify the problem. She made a night that could have possibly gone downhill into a night that became memorable as my partner and I were celebrating a special occasion.“

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

“Swordfish is amazing, highly recommend“

“Jolie offers a sublime lunch with stunning ocean views and attentive service. The beet salad, Brussels sprouts, calamari, and especially the spicy tuna stack are delicious —each starter made with precision and vibrant flavor. Amazing coastal dining experience that earns every one of its five stars; I’ll definitely return.“

“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 🥘!“

“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! ♥️“

“Stopped in for lunch today after seeing a post on Instagram. It’s nice, clean and right on the corner in the shopping center. It looked like the parking lot was packed but there was plenty of parking upon further review. The waitress was so nice and sweet. (I hate that I didn’t ask her name) I got the Loco Moco and the Beignets. Both were REALLY GOOD. She actually didn’t charge me for the dessert because it didn’t come out the way they liked……. It was GOOD to me!! I am not a fan of creamy, mayonnaise, ranch, béchamel, hollandaise, type of sauce so I chose the safe route this time. It was delicious. Very filling and full of flavor. I will be back again and I did invite my friends already. Thanks Chef! Congratulations!!“

“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!!!“

“Good foo, nice people and the food was made quickly even though they were busy AF.“

“11/11/2025
Stopped in here with a friend for lunch while in the area. Looked interesting in passing. Atmosphere seemed to be a good thing. When we arrived there was little to no wait. However after seated, the waiter wasn't back to take our order for a long time. Until finally we flagged someone down. When we finally placed our order, we had to wait a while for food to arrive. Also had to flag someone down for the check. Food was delicious. Ahi steak salad hit the spot. Atmosphere was great. The server was good too, it honestly seemed that they were understaffed. Facilities were clean and well maintained. Dining area was organized and either in use or prepped for next use. Will surely be back to try again!
Thank you Stacked!
Thank you Hargett Hunter and TriSpan!
Thank you Paul Motenko and Jerry Hennessy!

“when we want a tasty meal, we come here. always delicious“

“Great service, nice atmosphere and friendly servers“

“Tastes good, come back next time“

“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!“

“Hi love it it it it it it it“

“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.“

“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!“

“I recently stopped by The Cauldron for drinks and appetizers, and it did not disappoint! The highlight of the evening was definitely the French onion soup—it was rich and flavorful, truly stealing the show. We also tried the Brussels sprouts, which were delicious. The charcuterie board was a feast for the eyes and the taste buds, and the inclusion of black cheese added a fun Halloween touch. Overall, a fantastic experience that I highly recommend I enjoyed it all on the patio.“

“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 😋“

“Came into The Brant last weekend and had the most wonderful time. Each dish is prepared so thoughtfully and bursting with flavor, I think I finished just about every bite. Portion sizes are lovely and on top of that the atmosphere is so lively, not to mention the stunning view of the beach. I have to give kudos to our server, Ali, she was so beyond sweet and very attentive. I will definitely be back, the grilled salmon and beet salad was divine and if you’re in the mood for the best old fashioned you’ve ever had in hb this is the place to go !“

“Was so happy to see that they had vegan options available. Their menu is quite varied and I liked that there is something for everyone. 🥰. I even noticed that they are quite thoughtful like a water-bowl for dogs, etc.
This place is a nice place to hangout by the beach and the playground is just next to it.
We ordered two vegan burritos and an oat milk coffee. The burrito was very delicious, beyond my expectations.
Polite staff.
We are definitely visiting them again!!“

“We are new in the area and were looking for a local friendly place to relax with a drink and some good food. What we found was a way beyond. The ladies greeted us two strangers with big smiles and huge welcomes. They quickly offered us drinks and menus then, gave us the low down on specials and a lil history of the bar. We felt at home immediately. That was just the beginning! The bloody marys were on point, freshly made (no mix crap), and the food! We ate every bit of it! Onion rings are fresh and crispy, Italian Sub also crispy with a great blend of meats, cheese, and peppers, and I believe he had the pastrami. It was almost all over when we said pics! So excuse the sloppy pics, but dont miss the cameo of that delish bloody mary and beer back! A great Go-To place! So happy we found The Marlin, we will be back. Thank you for a great time!“

“I happened to be in Huntington Beach for my dog and wanted to join other veterans and the places that celebrated us. I stumbled on 25 degrees. What a pleasure. The bartender couldn't have been any more of a delight. She even had them make a patty for my service dog. I met an amazing vet Darren and his lady Becca. Hi Becca and Darren. I think we are going to be great boat friends. I have a 17 foot Boston whaler a Montauk fishing boat and and need other fishermen/women to take it out. Looking forward to many days on the water. I will wear their sweatshirt with the pride I have for other veterans. Stop in and say hi. I wish I got the bartenders name. I will tell many. Love you forever!!!! Patriots“

“Great to meet you Mike! Wonderful food & drinks! We will be back!“

“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 😊❤️“

“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.“

“My 3rd time back and again an awesome breakfast. Delicious and will be back again soon!!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Service is always great, but I’m really disappointed they removed some of the best vegetarian options. The jackfruit tacos and Buffalo cauliflower (especially the Tuesday cauliflower tacos!) were amazing. The new avocado taco just isn’t the same. It’s not about price—it’s about keeping great veggie choices that regulars loved. Please bring them back!!“

“Delicious breakfasts, oh my!“

“Henry's is a great place to go if you're looking for excellent food and great atmosphere. We were here celebrating a special occasion and they made it a night to remember. We can't wait to go back. Our waiter was “Jay” and he couldn't have been more fantastic. He was able to make great recommendations and provided excellent friendly service.“

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

“Great sandwiches And wonderful staff“

“so far everything I've had from here has been top notch. 👌🏻 Just tried the hangover burger for the first time today, I highly suggest you try it.👍🏻👍🏻“

“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.“

“Always Fresh & Delicious 😋“
