Great local hang. Like the old school whiskey bar feel. Whisky sampler is fun, also the vodka tonic and Pino Noir very good. Bartenders are super friendly and good poor. Table service w smash burgers, wings, and avacado toast is yummy. Like to sit in leather chairs in front window peeking out open windows. Lots of outside tables. Local hang. Panama joes next door is just too crazy and this is much quieter and has all the Big TVs w sports but not crazy loud. Great happy hour. Regular hang go-to bar for us.

Definitely one the BEST Happy Hours on 2nd Street! Food, drink, and service. Heavenly Burger (Smash Burger) for $5.55! Bites are amazing! Brussel Sprouts, Fries and Tater Tots. House Margarita for $9. Old Fashions for $12. Truly great deals and high quality! We loved our drinks. Margaritas were perfect and you can tell not made from an acidic mix! House made! Old Fashions made just right! Our Bartender/Server was Ryan. So friendly and helpful. Our friend wanted a seasonal drink they offered last Spring and he did his best to reprise it! We love their comfy booths and atmosphere! Every visit has been a great experience. We went a few times when they were serving Tomahawk Steaks! Some of the best ones we have had! We will be back!

An overlooked restaurant/ bar off 2nd street. If you enjoy whisky, Angel's Share has plenty of whisky cocktails, flights & straight whisky to sit and enjoy. Their Heavenly burger is a good quality burger that surpasses many bar like burgers. Simply because it's made with fresh ingredients and not greasy at all. Staff are friendly and provide excellent service!

Decent whiskey bar with okay food. We went for Happy Hour which is from 3-6 pm daily. I had the $6 whiskey shots, which were decent. We tried the Goat Cheese Balls and Onion rings. Our bartender Rachel was friendly and helpful. Decor is simple but decent with comfortable seats. They offer a decent membership program with 2 free tastings every month and 1 bottle of whiskey. I am thinking of joining. Overall it's a decent bar with a new concept and a worthwhile addition to 2nd St.

Wow, I definitely thought I left my review for Angel's Share and JUST realized I didn't. I visited in December when they had all the cute holiday decor. My friend and I actually stopped here after a pretty Long Beach walk/walk in the area and conveniently arrived during happy hour. The waiter was incredibly kind (sad I forgot her name!) and attentive, and of course during this time of year, the lights and decorations were super inviting and fun. We enjoyed a couple of their seasonal cocktails based on the waiter's recommendations and enjoyed both. The food was decent. We did not like the Mac and cheese, but the burger, while simple, was great! Visiting was outside of our plans that day, but we were happy spontaneity lead us there.

TL;DR: We were overcharged by a lot. Make sure you get an itemized bill and don't trust the total that the credit card machine shows you. After my first attempt to visit Angel's Share went poorly, management reached out and invited me to give them another try. I appreciate when restaurants take constructive feedback seriously so I got a group of friends together and went back on a weekday afternoon to check out their special holiday decor/menu. We arrived at 3 pm and the restaurant wasn't opened. We ended up waiting 30 minutes past opening time before the restaurant finally opened. The bartender/server (there was only one scheduled) explained there had been a personal issue which caused the delay. Things happen, no worries, we sat down and were excited to order. They have a small space and most of the seating is curved booths or bar seating, so they aren't really equipped to handle groups. Our group of six just about fit in one of the curved booths very cozily. I wouldn't recommend trying to visit with a larger group. The place filled up pretty quickly and it was obvious they were understaffed. It took a long time for the one bartender, who was also the only server, to get around to all of the tables to take orders and even longer to make drinks. This wasn't her fault, management should have hired more staff, especially while they were in the middle of the busy holiday season. The kitchen also appeared to be staffed by one person who was both cooking and bringing out the finished dishes. Our drinks, when we got them, were good. They have those big square ice cubes and even stamp them with their logo, which was a fun touch. Some of our food orders came out wrong the first time, and the kitchen person argued with us a little at first when we mentioned it, then later came back with the corrected items and acquiesced that we had been right about the orders. Even with the late opening, slow service, and wrong food I'd have given this visit a generous four stars, but multiple people in my party were overcharged, so I've dropped it down to two stars. Happy hour items weren't rung up at happy hour prices, and because we were a group of six (although we had separate bills) a gratuity was automatically added to each bill. The gratuity would have been fine if anyone had told us. However, since Angel's Share uses those electronic payment machines, we only saw our total, we never received an itemized bill so four of the six of us paid the wrong price for HH items PLUS tipped on top of a bill that already included gratuity. I an one other person stuck around after most of the party left and so were the last people to check out. When it came my turn to pay, the total seemed high so I asked out server and that's when she realized the HH price mix-up and told us that gratuity was included in the total. She fixed the issue for our two bills, but did not offer to do anything for the people who had already paid and left. After two disappointing experiences, I won't be back.

Lynn and Laurel would not stop talking about Angel's Share, and the FOMO was real!!! So I grabbed my boyfriend and rushed over to check out their Christmas theme and cocktails. We had a reservation but arrived a little early and asked the hostess if we could just sit at the bar instead. She said no problem at all. We came in around 6:30pm, which might be an odd sweet-spot time, because we were able to snag a couple of bar seats right away! The entire place is fully decked out for the holidays, super cozy, festive, and so cute. They're currently running a special holiday cocktail menu, so we ordered from that. Rachel was behind the bar and took great care of us despite how busy it was. I started with a Classic Old Fashioned and followed it up with a Smoked Old Fashioned both great choices. My boyfriend also ordered the Old Fashioned and Making Christmas, and I have to say, his drink was actually really good! Angel's Share is small and gets very busy, so I highly recommend making a reservation. If you're planning to eat here, just know the food menu is limited and food can take a while. We had already eaten and came mainly for drinks, but my boyfriend ordered onion rings to snack on. I tried them, but they were falling apart and not really my thing. For me, Angel's Share is perfect for a festive, post-dinner cocktail or a quick drink with friends but not necessarily a spot I'd choose to dine at. Great atmosphere, fun seasonal cocktails, and definitely worth a visit during the holidays.

I revisited Angel's Share during the Christmas pop-up, and the vibes inside were super cute and festive! The cocktail napkins were themed, and the holiday drinks had cute Christmas tree and gingerbread man toothpicks to tie everything together. The server who took care of my group gave good drink recommendations and checked in on us regularly to refill our water cups, which was nice. As for the food, one of the highlights were the brussels sprouts, which were perfectly crispy and balsamic glazed up. I ordered the patty melt sandwich, which initially arrived at my table without the caramelized onions advertised on the menu. I just let my server know and she took it back to the kitchen to add the caramelized onion. It tasted MUCH better with the caramelized onions included. My friend ordered the heavenly burger for $5.55 during happy hour, which is a great deal. She enjoyed the burger, however upon picking it up, the bottom burger bun split in half, which was inconvenient to eat. Overall the food was tasty, just some minor hiccups listed above. Our group enjoyed our experience at Angel's Share.

Food: 5/5 Mussels, drinks, appetizers were delicious. Drinks were pretty strong and good. Old fashion was awesome, espresso martini was made well! Service: 5/5 Staff was quick and inviting. Great team. Ambience: 3/5 Interior is great, outdoor seating is interesting. Ground had a slight slope but overall worked well.

This place is very cute and definitely worth trying. We came on a Saturday afternoon, not very busy. The staff were all very welcoming and attentive. They greeted us and sat us down immediately. I think our servers name was Billy and he was great. We only ate appetizers but what we ate was delicious. The cauliflower was cooked very well. The Goat cheese balls were very good, and paired perfectly with the apple and honey that came with it. Fries were also great. We got wings which were alright but honestly my least favorite of the night. The drinks here are a very good, a lot of whiskey of course but they have other speciality drinks that are vodka, gin, tequila based. Drinks came out pretty fast and tasted very well made. The restaurant is on the smaller end, but the decorations are cute and pretty. They have a small seating area outside in the front as well. Parking could be difficult, just street parking is available.

I came here with family to celebrate our annual Christmas white elephant gift exchange. The food was good. I ordered the house salad with bacon and shared the mussels with my sister. Those mussels with the sourdough bread paired so well and was prepared perfectly. My sister also ordered the snowman cocktail which I took sips from and it was strong but still good. Our server and staff were kind and friendly enough to take our picture. The establishment was decorated with holiday vibes and we sat outside since the booths inside were a little small to accommodate 6 of us. We parked on the street and made reservations so we were seated right away. Come check this place out for a bite to eat and a refreshing beverage.
