    Fried Chicken
    Cindy O.

    Great views! If you are looking for breakfast or lunch with a view, ylthis is a great pick. You order at the counter and it is delivered to your table. It has a very casual vibe, feels like you are in a Cafe in a Gym. Several people were doing work on laptops, so definitely a place to relax or hang out. Staff does not rush you out after you finish you food and or drinks. It is located inside a high rise apartment building on the second floor. There is a sign but depending on your approach, it may not be visible. Look for the building with large 1900 on top! Patking is street only (onsite parking is for residents only). There's a park near by with lots of parking, although on weekends especially with warm weather, parking may be difficult. Food waa good. I had the Fried Chicken with Fries and Coleslaw. My friend had the Avocado Toast. Service was very friendly!

    Low key with ocean views. The breakfast items are amazing. We had French toast and chorizo burrito. Easy for wheelchair access .

    All 10s across the board. The intentions of going here were more so for the views but the food held a special places there also. I believe this is another hidden gem located inside of a hotel. I got a steak burrito ; so flavorful and a nice size portion. I do wish there was more of the green salsa it came with. My boyfriend ordered the breakfast plate which I had to try some of. So good the breakfast potatoes were the star of the show. As a starter we order homemade biscuit and butter. Soooo good the biscuit was so butter and fluffy and light . The butter that came on the side was a whipped honey butter 10/10 recommend. The spot will go in rotation for me for a cute brunch can't wait to go back.

    among the things I love about this place: the view; that they have a great canned magkeolli :D

    As I attempt to dig myself out of the large hole I built myself over the last year in terms of yelp review drafts... this is also from last fall, a decent number of months ago. Amazingly, from what I can tell, the burger I had last fall that was $20 bucks with fries at that time, appears to still be the same price. So while that is a bit pricey (yes, you're definitely also paying for the sprawling beach views), go them for fighting back against the recent inflation, at least for now. Craft beers were entirely reasonably priced, too - the sour I grabbed was $6.50 (again, as of a few months ago, now). They had a pretty solid and varied selection of craft drinks, too - including, at least at the time, a cans of my favorite canned makgeolli, Makku (I wanted to give them a shoutout for that in particular, as that's fairly rare to find. Hopefully they still have it, cause that is a draw!) Anyway - apart from the beach view, which is indeed pretty spectacular, the burger was also quite good. Big, meaty, quality burger on a great fluffy bun, and, notably, somewhat rarely for this steak-house style of burger, actually didn't fall apart while I was eating it and make me eat half of it with a knife and fork! So good job on that, too. The fries were nothing special, though they weren't bad. They were... fries. The smaller pieces were definitely a bit overly crispy, and a bit overly salty; the larger pieces (a majority) were entirely adequate as a burger accompaniment. Certainly wouldn't go out of my way for them. Yes, it is indeed an order at the front, serve yourself kind of vibe. I had absolutely no issue with that. Indeed, in some ways, that's nicer. Overall, if they were charging the prices they charge, and did *not* have a view like that, I'd give them 4 stars and tell you to go to The Stache if you wanted a burger. Indeed, if what you want is the best burger, I would still tell you to go there. But if what you want is a chill vibe, a hidden gem even locals seem not to know about, a great beach view from a couple floors up, *and* a very good burger, definitely come here. (I also, note to self, definitely need to come back to try their biscuits & gravy.)

    Breakfast Burrito
    Edgar H.

    You need to check this place out! Hidden within the 1900 E Ocean Ave building is one of the best views of long beach with a delectable amount of food options. They have breakfast, lunch, and dinner options at very affordable rates. You'll love it. I went and got the breakfast burrito w/ bacon. If you like a burrito with crunchy bacon, melted cheese, and some fresh potatoes this is the one to get. Their coffee program is pretty good. They seem to know what they are doing and are dedicated to providing a quality product rather than just a plain ol' coffee. Their team is there to guide you through your options so dont feel overwhelmed. This is perfect for a laid back date even, given the views. Or just a casual coffee and food spot. Check it out when you can!

    Came in for brunch with a friend, the place was a bit small but cozy. The food was flavorful and the Spanish latte was perfectly made. The view was lovely and honestly worth it, even if you go by yourself. Friendly vibe overall; will be back.

    Hartland's Omelette
    Angela L.

    It's not every day you get to review a restaurant that's in your own backyard, but in the case of Hartland's there is no closer or more convenient location than right in my apartment building. Tucked away on the second floor of 1900 Ocean, it's an open and airy space with plenty of seating. I especially love the casual beach house lounge style furnishing. Sadly they are only open for brunch/lunch and close daily at 3 PM (also closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays). Highly recommend anything off their cafe menu, with the hojicha latte being unique and a stand out. Also have gotten their OG breakfast burrito a few times and it's always hit the spot. Only taking a star off my review because the omelette left a lot to be desired - the egg was rubbery and was not mixed in with the fillings at all. All in all, am convinced this is the best brunch spot in Long Beach for vibes and views, with floor to ceiling glass windows overlooking the ocean. Last time I ate here, I even saw a school of dolphins swimming right off the coast - it doesn't get better than that.

    Biscuit & Burrito

    Service food and atmosphere are always so spot on here! I never have issues with parking in the area since they are mainly open during the day time

    Photographing an 80th birthday celebration at Hartland's in Long Beach was truly an elevated experience from start to finish. The venue itself feels like a hidden coastal gem -- tucked above Ocean Boulevard with sweeping ocean views that instantly create a refined, intimate atmosphere for milestone celebrations. From a visual storytelling perspective, it's rare to find a space where every angle naturally feels editorial and timeless. As the event unfolded, the versatility of the space stood out. The layout easily supported a beautifully styled celebration while still feeling warm and personal for guests. Hartland's is designed to host celebrations ranging from intimate gatherings to larger milestone events, with flexible layouts and curated food options that help elevate the overall experience. But what truly made this event unforgettable was golden hour. The outdoor patio and coastal vantage point create a breathtaking natural backdrop -- panoramic ocean views, skyline, and coastline that photograph like a dream. As the sun set, the space transformed into something truly magical, giving us some of the most stunning sunset portraits of the evening. Beyond aesthetics, there's an elevated yet approachable hospitality that runs through the entire experience. Hartland's blends high-end comfort food, coastal ambiance, and an inviting atmosphere that makes guests feel both celebrated and completely at ease -- which is exactly what you want when documenting such an important life milestone. If you're looking for a luxury-feeling, oceanfront venue in Long Beach that delivers both visually and experientially, Hartland's is truly exceptional. Capturing an 80th birthday here felt less like working an event and more like documenting a once-in-a-lifetime celebration set against one of the best views in the city. Parking is tricky!

    Hubby & dined here when it was called the "plunge" a long time ago & I was sad it closed down bc I missed the lovely view & the great food. Glad to find out today that the restaurant had reopened but under a different name. We were in the area & thought we check it out. Place was pretty busy for late lunch but luckily we got a seat by the window & enjoyed the view just like old times. Hubby ordered their fried chicken breast that came with fries & cold slaw. The cold slaw was bland but the chicken was surprisingly very good! The texture was tender & juicy. The amount of crisp was perfect. Fries were good. I had the Mediterranean chicken wrap & it was solid. It tasted healthy & clean. The portions were ample amount. Prices aren't cheap but worth the quality you pay for. Drinks were spot on. I'd definitely order these 2 dishes again. Btw, can't say much about the service bc you get in line to order first & they bring out the food.

    Every time I visit my son, this place becomes part of our daily ritual--from breakfast to lunch, we are here. We honestly don't go anywhere else unless we DoorDash. My son is working on his master's degree and is also a Division I athlete, so his schedule is nonstop and cooking or meal prepping is almost impossible. Having such an incredible restaurant right on the second floor of his apartment building is truly a blessing. The food is absolutely astonishing. The view is a million-dollar view, the waitstaff is beyond perfect--so charming, attentive, and welcoming--and the food... wow. I can never get enough of the steak and eggs, steak burrito prime rib sandwich, Avocado toast, Fresh Sourdough bread and the shrimp and grits are unreal. This is where we go every single time I visit, and I'm here for five days this trip--so yes, we'll be at Heartland every day. Thank you for maintaining such a wonderful restaurant and an amazing menu. You've truly made our visits special

    Veggie burrito
    Neal T.

    Ordered at the counter and grabbed a table right at the window with the views. Had the espresso tonic as they were out of ginger beer for the espresso mule which sounded interesting. The food was brought to our table which was nice for a counter order spot. They have really cool silverware as well. Food came out as it was ready and there were 5 of us for brunch so salad orders came out quickly and then burger and veggie burrito and last was the French toast which worked perfect since I was sharing my veggie burrito and the French toast was more like dessert. The Caesar salad was great they smash up the croutons so every bite is crunchy. The veggie burrito came with a cilantro salsa that was really delicious and the burrito was great too. After that the French toast was the best tasting toast I think I've had. Almost tasted like a cinnamon roll. So good all around and the servers were friendly and brought out whatever we needed.

    I live in the building that Hartland's is in, so I've had the luxury of coming here very often. Clover says 31 visits, but I know the real number is probably even higher. That alone shows how much I enjoy this place. Hartland's has become my go-to spot for breakfast, studying, and resetting my mind. Whenever they are open, I find myself heading downstairs to order either the steak and eggs or the steak burrito. Both are consistently great and always cooked well. I used to order the butterscotch latte with oat milk every single time because it was incredible. They no longer serve it, but the Spanish latte they introduced is also very good. The atmosphere is a huge part of what makes this place special. I usually sit in the corner with my laptop, eating good food, listening to relaxing music, and looking out at the ocean and beach in the background. It is one of the best environments for getting work done because it is peaceful, bright, and calming. You order at the front and seat yourself, which keeps everything simple and comfortable. The staff here is consistently kind, and they always make me feel welcome. Rob, the owner, is very friendly and easy to talk to. Every time I walk in, it feels like I am being welcomed home. My only wish is that they stayed open for dinner. If they did, I know I would be down here even more often because the space would make for a great evening spot as well.

We ended up ordering the fondue for the app (24.00) which comes with bite size pieces of bread and diced apples. It was ok, a little too runny and had an interesting hint of beer flavor.

Everything feels clean, classy and thoughtfully put together. When you first arrive, seeing the line out the door can be a little intimidating. Usually at places like this, I feel like I have to fight for my life to find a table, but thankfully that wasn't the case here. The staff was very kind and asks how many are in your party and helps you get a table, which made everything much less stressful. They also give you menus while you wait so you can decide what you want ahead of time. We arrived at 10:30am and our wait was about 30 minutes so by the time we were able to order at 11am, the lunch menu was also available. I ordered the tater tots, Cinnagave Shaken Espresso, Dutch Baby Pancake and country sourdough toast with jam. With tax and tip, my total came out to around $40. It's definitely pricier than what I normally pay for breakfast. Most entrées range from $17-$34 and coffees are around $5-$10, so you can easily spend $30+ for one person. In these hard times, that's not exactly ideal for me. I also wanted to try a pastry to get the full experience, but when I found out the small blackberry danish was $7, I decided to pass. I just couldn't justify getting that close to $50 for breakfast for one person. Now for the food! The country sourdough toast with jam was actually my favorite item. The homemade sourdough was incredible and honestly deserves its roses. It sounds like such a simple thing, but it was so well done and easily the standout for me. Visually, the Dutch Baby Pancake was beautiful and definitely impressive when it came out. I've always wanted to try one, so I was excited! I will say, I've read everywhere that Dutch babies are supposed to have more of a custardy center and even the photos I've seen look that way. Mine didn't really have that texture at all and tasted more like a crepe. Maybe it was a little overcooked? It wasn't bad, just not quite what I expected. Still delicious! Unfortunately, the tater tots were the biggest disappointment. They weren't crispy, didn't taste seasoned and sort of fell apart until they became one big potato mess. My cousins and I ended up not finishing them. One of my cousins ordered the summer peach and corn salad, which she liked! Just a heads-up that it's only available after 11 a.m. My other cousin got the skillet, she mentioned feeling a little disappointed since it tasted a little dry and didn't finish her plate. However they both ordered the Curious George drink and LOVED it! The Cinnagave Shaken Espresso was also fantastic. Coffee is definitely something they do very well here and I can see myself getting again. Overall, the aesthetics are adorable and I could see this being a great date spot. The coffee was fantastic, the sourdough was amazing, but the rest of the food was just okay for us. That was a little disappointing because everything sounds SO good on paper. Maybe we just caught them on an off day. The prices are probably the biggest thing holding me back from coming back regularly. Spending $30-$40+ per person for breakfast isn't really in my budget right now, but if this is within your price range, you may have a completely different experience. When I review a place, I try to take the overall experience, personal taste and effort into account. For now, I'm leaving Zuzu's Petals at 4 stars because the effort is definitely there, and what isn't my cup of tea may be someone else's liquid gold. I'd still give them another chance in the future... after I get paid!

    I never expected to find stellar cocktails and wings inside of a hotel, but you truly never know…read more Let's start with the cocktails; they are KILLING it. The menu has a ton of really detailed options, each drink with its own depth. The menu changes seasonally but what doesn't change is the smoked old fashioned - a must-order. They smoke your drink in a glass container using applewood chips; it's quite a show and it also does make the drink much more enjoyable. Ask the bartender and they can also help guide you to a drink - I've done it a couple of times and always pleasantly surprised. Next up, the food! The hummus was very flavorful and paired with an amazing fluffy pita bread. The truffle fries were solid but the plate was HUGE, definitely needs a friend to share. The Nashville wings are the star of the show. I cannot stress this enough, this is worth a DRIVE for. The seasoning really does remind you of Howlin' Rays (the highest compliment) and the chicken is extremely crispy yet insanely juicy. The pickles and ranch that it comes with pairs so well. Do note that they are tossing it in pork fat, which enhances the depth but also makes it a little greasy at the end. I also wished they'd warn you this and offer to order it without it; especially for those who don't eat pork or for those trying to cut some calories. There's a happy hour menu too!!! So you can get drinks and food even cheaper. I cannot stop thinking about this place. It's such a sleeper. Head to Midnight Oil after a visit to continue your night.

    Navy Proof is the restaurant and bar inside the Westin Long Beach lobby. The open atrium with high…read moreceilings and large windows looks impressive, but in the early afternoon the sun made the space feel warm and greenhouse-like. The bartender was excellent. He went into the kitchen for fresh berries, muddled them with Tito's and soda, and made a genuinely refreshing summertime drink that helped with the heat...! I eventually ordered the Crispy Shrimp & Calamari to eat as my main (I was dining alone). I had recently had a very notable version of the same dish at a Canopy by Hilton in Washington DC, and unfortunately, this one did not measure up. The breading was average and the sweet chili aioli was poor. I asked for ranch instead, which was an improvement but still not great. The portion itself was fine. Service was solid and friendly! I'd rate the staff around a 4. Based on the food I had, the kitchen lands closer to a 2.5 to 3. Fine if you're already in the hotel and want something casual, but not an amazing choice for the fried seafood.
