The house for the restaurant made for a unique, warm, and inviting experience! The tasting menu they offer is pescatarian only and we loved every dish!! The dishes were elevated but still hearty and left me stuffed. We didn't try the wine pairing but they have a small collection of well curated wine list that fit their farm to table food menu. My favorite was the 3 amuse bouche at the start: the uni, the tart, and squash blossom salad in a bite (actually have no idea what that was but it was AMAZING and would petition for a bouquet of those). Also the dessert: a balance of sweet, salty, umami, and freshness melted together with that sesame toast on top of the chocolatey goodness with a hint a citrus. Yum!!! The service was just as warm and matched the ambiance of being welcomed in a familiar, reminiscent summer beach home.
I first came here when I was in Long Beach for work a few years ago and I loved the entire experience. Fast forward to a conference I was attending in Anaheim with my family. When I heard Heritage had received a Michelin star, I jumped at the chance to take my family. They all loved it and it was a hit from start to finish. It is definitely won't it to hear reservation. The best part, everyone on staff is truly friendly, helpful and attentive. The dining room is a little bit dark. It's a small price to pay for the amazing food from tonight's dinner. The flavors continue to be creative, inventive, and unforgettable. I never thought I'd ever enjoy passion fruit and crudo together, but I'm a fan! The sea urchin toast intimidated me but was actually a perfect little bite. And dessert was a work of art.
Celebrated my daughter's birthday dinner and the whole staff was lovely. The restaurant is on the smaller side but cute. The food was solid, some bites were full of flavor and tastier than others like the first bites and scallop and some were just ok like the beef. Dessert was also just ok. Definitely worth a try at least once.
Came in to celebrate a birthday. Parking is not easy to find, so show up at least a few minutes early. We were let in to our kitchen counter seats at the reserved time. And the tasting experience began. First up was a trio of "first bites"--the Sea Urchin Crostata was an explosion of flavor, one of my favorite bites of the night. Also up were a chunk of pickled pineapple and a lobster gougere. This was followed by some seafood courses: Wild Kampachi with passion fruit, jicama, and house yogurt--very much like you would get at a good sushi restaurant. Then, Abalone Rice... I'm not a fan of abalone usually, but the wild rice by itself made this dish great and "Live Scallop in Shell", with a smoked trout roe that took this to the next level. Finally, Line-Caught Black Cod. The lobster bisque that served as a sauce could have been its own dish, and would have been one of the best of the night. Finally, the "main" of the night, Aged Duck & Smoked Leg: a perfectly cooked duck breast, accompanied by duck leg confit. The persimmon was a genius accompaniment and made this dish the overall star. They finished the meal with a trio of deserts: a sunchoke ice cream with honeycomb, carrot cake with candied walnuts, and a final two bites of pate de fruit and a chocolate bonbon. We left not overstuffed but still satisfied.
The food was very good! Each dish felt light yet complex, which I really enjoyed. The vibe is intimate, and from the outside the restaurant almost looks like someone's home, which adds to the charm. That said, for a $175 meal, I did leave feeling a bit hungry, and I'm not someone who usually eats a lot. The portions are on the smaller side, which I didn't mind, but I think one additional dish, or a more carb-forward course (we didn't have one), would have made the meal feel more satisfying overall. Service-wise, the pacing felt uneven. There were noticeable pauses between dishes. Given the Michelin star, I was expecting better timing. Note: Definitely plan to arrive early for parking. There's no valet, and street parking in this part of Long Beach is very difficult to find.
After long await, we finally decided to splurge on Heritage. Heritage is a no doubt a highly talented kitchen, but for a Michelin starred restaurant, the experience did not justify the price. The food was generally well executed, though several dishes were overly salty. Portions were extremely small throughout the meal. Many plates were literally the size of a quarter. The main course was especially disappointing, consisting of a single slice of duck breast. Yes, a single slice. Dessert followed the same pattern with a very small chocolate bite and another tiny fruit bite. It did not feel like a proper finale. The lighting was dark and intimate, which I appreciated, but the dining room itself was cramped and loud. Instead of feeling private, it felt like sitting closely packed with other diners. There was no live music, though the playlist was good. Presentation was inconsistent, particularly early in the meal. With portions this small, stronger presentation would have helped elevate the experience. Pacing also declined toward the end of the dinner, with noticeable delays, which disrupted the flow. Overall, while there were aspects to enjoy, the combination of tiny portions, uneven pacing, and crowded atmosphere made the experience not worth the cost.
Came here for my birthday and had a really great time! We opted to sit at the bar and were able to watch the open kitchen work. We even got to speak to some of the chefs working, which added to the experience. Now the food: the menu looked promising but the first few courses were not exciting. Flavors were confusing, some weren't punchy enough, others over seasoned, and yet some just didn't go together. We were getting a bit worried until we arrived at the middle of the menu and the dishes were homeruns! My favorites were the proteins: scallops and duck. Both were expertly cooked to perfection and seasoned well. The desserts weren't mind blowing but tasty and ended the dinner on a good bite. I would definitely return at a different season to try a different menu and see what they have to offer.
July 5, 2025 was our second time at Heritage. We decided to celebrate our 9th wedding anniversary. Since our first dinner here a year ago was so lovely, we were eager to return! Marissa and the rest of the staff were attentive and friendly throughout the night. We were impressed with each course and kept talking about our favorites long after dinner was over. I really enjoyed the wine pairing in our first dining. They have many NA options too for those avoiding alcohol. Heritage has a cozy, intimate vibe overall and it's no surprise many others were celebrating there too. If you haven't experienced Long Beach's 1st Michelin Starred restaurant, don't wait!
Updating review since my last visit was when Heritage first opened and prior to earning their Michelin star. They have truly elevated and refined their service and execution of dishes. With just four seats at the counter and six tables in the dining room, guests still get the warm home hospitality feel in an intimate setting. Their tastings are now set at $160 per person, which comes with 12 thoughtfully curated bites of umami, textures and variety. The majority of their produce and herbs are grown in the Heritage Farm, just a mile away from the restaurant. Staying true to their zero-waste philosophy, they repurpose any excess ingredients into compost cycling back to the gardens. Sustainable dining at its finest! They respectfully do not allow substitutions, but it is understandable with their mission in mind. Summer 2025 tasting menu: Palo Santo Mint- an herbal shot to open the senses Steamed Baby Corn- loved the shaved truffle on top Box Crab- lovely pastry bite Pickled Plum- palate cleanser Slow-Cooked Farm Beets Celtuce, fennel, house yogurt Live Scallop in Shell Dashi, smoked trout roe Braised Sweetbreads- not really bread but yummy chunks of bacon with spring onion, fava bean and greens Mt. Lassen Trout Beluga lentil, herb pistou- Loved! 32-Day Dry Aged Rib Chop Delta asparagus, spring onion Crème Caviar: Heritage caviar, manzanilla oil - soooo good! Mille-feuille: Strawberry, rhubarb, pistachio Pâte de Fruit Boysenberry- like gummies :) Wine pairing is an additional $95. We opted to bring a bottle of wine for a $40 cork fee. Valet is $25, but you might be able to find street parking on 7th Street. Incredible experience and so happy to have this gem in Long Beach!
RSVP for 8pm.. we didn't leave till about 11:18pm.. Personally, I felt like service was wayyyyyy tooo slow.. chairs are super uncomfortable to be left sitting for so long... Food was great but definitely were left with an appetite after which was kinda upsetting since it was almost $200 a head without wine.. plus tip This was a one time experience for us.
Loved the entire meal and experience! Our server was very knowledgeable about both the menu and the wine pairings. A very comfortable environment with zero pretense. I wasn't sure what to expect since this was my first Michelin Star restaurant visit but it was great! The open kitchen made the bar and front room seating a little warm, kind of like eating in your kitchen with the yummy smells as well. I am a big Food HD watcher and I enjoyed watching the preparation. The menu was superb and the wine pairing was outstanding! Cost was $650 for two of us, one with wine pairing and one without. Honestly, it was well worth it!
Summary: has potential but not quite Michelin 1-star. I'm rating this restaurant based on food, service, and ambiance. Food overall didn't impress me. There were a few times where the right utensils weren't provided. For example, the pineapple pickle was considered a finger food. The first few courses were extremely disappointing. They were either too strong in a specific flavor (sour, saltiness) or too bland. I only started enjoying the food starting from the kingfish, which is technically the 8th course. Service was a mixed bag. A waitress provided a bag hook and they gave complimentary champagne for our anniversary. However, we didn't have a dedicated server. Depending on who served the dish, we either received a thoughtful explanation of the dish or a plain statement of what's presented. Ambiance was probably the lowest of the 3 pillars. I understand that the restaurant used to be a house so things might look funky and the noise may be amplified. The place was crammed with so many tables and it was a full house. With all the talking that echoes, I couldn't talk and listen without leaning in. There was very little room between each table so i felt like a sardine in a tight can. 5/10 for the experience. Definitely not worth the price tag or the Michelin compared to Melisse and Providenxe when they were 1 star.
Cozy spot, great staff and friendly service. The spot has a warm home feeling. The food was amazing, the deserts are unforgettable! I couldn't do the win pairing but my party did and it was some of the best California wine they've had. Will bring my parent's next team to enjoy this mouthful of flavors. Got lost in the flavors that I kept eating before remembering to take pictures. Don't worry, I'll go back again to take them.
Unassuming, this restaurant is located on a busy street in Long Beach with neighborhood parking. Our reservation was on a Saturday night. We arrived 10 minutes before our scheduled reservation. Upon entering, we were not greeted by anyone immediately and there wasn't a specific hostess table for us to head to, so we were slightly taken aback as to where to check in. Finally, someone came to us and notified us that our table was not ready and guided us to wait by the bar, which is a small space near the kitchen. However, there was no bartender, or anyone taking drink orders, so we sat and perused the menu until our table was ready. We were led to a front table, and while observing the surroundings saw our table was the only one missing a candle. Our hostess observed that also after taking our drink order and quickly placed the candle from the empty table next to us onto ours. After taking our drink order, she mentioned that someone would come by to explain the menu in more detail. But the next person to come to our table was an individual serving us food. I'm not sure if that's what she meant by someone coming to explain the menu, but there wasn't an introduction into how a tasting menu works, or what is special about their menu specifically, they just brought out the food and explained the dish. When you taste the food, you can taste the quality of the ingredients. Their vegetable dishes, with roots from their farm, are the stars of the show, the beet salad and the cabbage. The protein courses followed, the scallops were well cooked, and the pork has good flavor, the pork could have been served warmer with the polenta. I was not as fond of the desserts. The mango froyo with the pickled peaches, had peaches which were over saturated in the pickled juice. It tasted like yogurt sitting in salad dressing. The last dish, the meringue and parsnip cream, while appearing slightly unappealing to look at, reminded me of a pleasant eggnog flavor, though perhaps serving into a bowl or a plate with rounded edges could make it easier to eat. The cream slides around on the plate when you attempt to scoop it with your spoon. read more
Heritage is Long Beach's first and only Michelin star restaurant. Keeping that in mind, reviews below are based on rating this dining experience and cuisine to other 1-star restaurants. FOOD: 5 stars. Amazing quality and flavor in each dish. The 6 course pre-set menu consisted of 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, and 2 desserts. Option to have a (generous) pairing pour with each course. I was impressed with the unique combination of flavors that were presented in each plate. Chef did a beautiful job on presentation, and portion sizing was perfect for a 6 course meal. AMBIANCE: 3 stars. This was really the most disappointing part of the evening. For a $500 dinner for two, you'd except to be WOW'd by the interior and ambiance upon entry. Most Michelin star restaurants are not just excellent in terms of food, but also in terms of the dining experience as a whole. Recommendation to management would be to invest in more heavy duty furniture and upscale lighting. The bathroom reflects that of a chain restaurant at a strip mall, not a destination dining location. STAFF: 4 stars Our waiter (Nicholas) was amazing!! He was knowledgeable, attentive, and personable. 5 stars for Nicholas! Our water glasses were constantly being refilled and cutlery was changed out for each course which was a nice touch. The only negative here were the staff members who delivered our plates that were not our waiter. They would drop the plate, quickly say the ingredients, and leave our table in a rush. All without making eye contact. It didn't make for a relaxed dining experience. Overall, wonderful cuisine but has a bit of ambiance and staff presentation work before I would go back. read more

Michelin x STAR restaurant Reservation for x 4 11.09.2023 @6pm time slot. Arrived at 5:50pm. Greeted and seated. Served our drinks of liking, Sangria and Wine. Fresh and crisp! 6 meal course was served. Enjoyed the presentation of each dish. Enjoyable experience. Chef and staff represented with professionalism. Food was delicious and customer service was great! I would definitely come back. It is a cool restaurant that has that cozy home ambiance feeling. As constructive criticism, why I only gave it 4 stars vs 5. -Upon entry, the greeting host opened the door but did not hold the door open for us. The door shut quickly where it nearly slammed in our faces while walking in. -"Wine courses served." the mixing of Red wine and White wine servings, the wine glasses were hardly replaced with new ones, meaning the flavor were mixing. Had to remind our server to change the wine glasses out. -Our friends did not get the wine special but individual Sangria. Our server did not ask them if they wanted anything else since their drinks were already empty by course meal 3. -The area where we were seated lacked acoustics, it can get really loud if other groups are sitting around you. Recommend to suppress the noise. -This restaurant only has 1 toilet! You will be waiting inline just to use one toilet. Rather inconvenient. Not in the nicest area, but the food will make up for the location. This establishment has room for improvement, just by fixing some of the issues we experienced at this high end restaurant. Listen, correct and exhibit read more
Simply amazing. Their tasting menu was a culinary journey that impressed, surprised and had our entire table using noises more than words. Brought our son here for his 21st birthday and added the caviar, truffles and wine pairing for us all. Well worth the addition' our service was a symphony of confidence as well as efficiency, we lacked for nothing. The ambiance was inviting and casual and our neighbors were just far enough to not heat their life story. We will definitely be back. read more
I chose to celebrate my birthday last month here at Heritage, as they recently earned a Michelin Star, the first restaurant in Long Beach to do so. Our experience was a little underwhelming, to say the least. Firstly, the parking situation was not ideal. Mostly street parking, and they only had three parking spaces behind the restaurant (in front of the converted house's garage). We managed to snag a spot as we had an early reservation, right when they opened. Nothing really stood out to us from the six-course menu. See attached photos for each dish. Plating did look nice, a tad rustic. If you're looking for a nice fine dining experience, this is definitely not it. It felt really casual, maybe just a little elevated than your usual restaurant. The place was also very small and felt a little cramped. Service was just okay, not really on par with other Michelin-starred restaurants. Honestly a little disappointed with our overall experience, there are much better Michelin One Stars to go to, with much more amazing food and service. read more

The food was amazing. The service was awesome and the ambience was perfect. These guys really stay true to their Michelin star. read more
Wow....what a great experience. Atmosphere = not pretentious, intimate & cozy Music = solid juxtaposition of background music and restaurant design Staff = warm & friendly Plating = beautiful, simple & modern Food = distinct & unpredictable layered flavors Drink = wine pairing on point We had dinner with friends and this was our first time dining at Heritage. It didn't disappoint and we loved every moment. Each plate was an experience all the way to the end with a thoughtful, yet simple parting gift for patrons. read more
This review is from a meal way back that I never got around to posting so I'm sure the menu has changed, but that does not change the fact that their menu was delightful, and the food was outstanding. The mushroom cappuccino was a wonderful start to our meal. Of the starters and mains, my favorites were the roasted beets, smoked pork belly, diver scallops, and hanger steak. I was not a big fan of the octopus confit, and I prefer my duck to be cooked a little less and to be a little juicier. Finished our meal with the campo de montalban cheese and pavlova. Not the best options in my opinion, but they were okay. read more
This is the best meal I've had in a long time! I have just eaten at a two Michelin Star restaurant in Los Gatos, CA on Sunday and this meal blew that one out of the water. What a treat to have such a good meal so close to home. The ingredients were wonderful. The two desserts are just the right amount for me. I love the small homely feel of the converted house and the open kitchen. We will definitely be back again soon! All the servers were amazing! Happy Yelping! read more
Surprised to find a place like this in LB! Since it's so close to home I had to try it out. Drive slow when you're on the street or you'll miss the building... it looks like a house! The service was great, staff constantly checked on our table, drinks were refilled promptly, dishes explained, ambiance was small and cute! Open kitchen design so you can see the hustle and bustle of organized chaos. It's great! Food was great too! Had the prefix 6 course meal and the caviar bump for an extra $15. I'd definitely plan to come back once the menu changes for the season! read more
From the outside, this place looks like a very welcoming house. Once inside, you're in a cozy atmosphere with very friendly laid-back service. They manage to fit a lot of closely spaced tables into a not-so-large dining room, so it can get a little noisy with all the different conversations. The outer room and bar area is a little smaller and more ambient, so it might be a little quieter there. Reservations are definitely needed here. The menu is a prefix 6-course tasting menu for $120 per person with additional $60 for wine pairing. There's also the option for a caviar supplement...I can't say no to a fun caviar fist bump. Heritage has their own farm so the tasting menu does seem to change pretty often. The food offerings were all interesting and beautifully presented. The quality of the food varied from course to course. -ous vide farm beets was compact little display of beets shaped like long noodles, a refreshing start to our dinner. -I think endive is an under-utilized vegetable and often just with the leaves. But I appreciated how this place also incorporated the stalk in their brown butter endive course, which added an extra crunchiness. -I had a summer squash alternative since I'm allergic to the preset course (the local black cod braised abalone), nothing too special, just a nice mix of vegetables and a creamy sauce. -The iberico pork presa was my favorite course of the evening. The pork was so light, tender and flavorful with the pickled peach relish and roasted fennel. -I was not a fan of the blood orange froyo which included candied kumquat, granita. Somehow, the consistency of this dessert seemed out of balance and tasted overwhelmingly tart. -The caramel corn pavlova had the best presentation and was a pleasant treat that looked a like nest-like deviled egg dessert. Parking in this area may be tough. If you're lucky you'll find street parking or you can opt for their valet parking upon arrival. As a newly minted Michelin one-star restaurant (and the only one in Long Beach), this is a fun farm-to-table neighborhood restaurant to check out. read more
I was thoroughly impressed by Heritage. I love the playfulness in each dish and the ingredients were very fresh. They own a garden a few blocks away and source locally for other items. The meal was much like a story; each dish being a unique chapter building anticipation for what's to come next. It was hard to choose a favorite when they were all so different. The staff is phenomenal and vibrant; easy to talk to, especially when you sit at the bar. The restaurant is tiny, very intimate, with few tables but suitable to the vibe they provide. Prefix can be tricky, but I believe their craft is worth the price. Definitely for adults only, or teen children with mature taste; perfect for special occasions or date nights. Valet is 20$, other than that there is street parking. Will be exciting to see how the menu changes come spring/summer. read more

Overall a very nice food experience. I sat on the kitchen side, so I agree with some reviews that there is smoke especially during main course preparing time. The foods are actually amazing. I especially like sashimi, the octopus skewer, trout main course, the mushroom dish, and both sweets (waffle and caviar ice cream). Love the creativity. Portion is not small. Only the dry aged beef was too fat - maybe chef can better pick those with evenly distributed fat pieces. read more

The food tastes really good. Not enough food/protein to justify the extreme price. Dessert was larger than the entire course it seemed. There is not a bar everything comes in a bottle.The ambiance, location and parking are very lacking at this level of dining. Would be a fantastic place to work as a server though. read more

Food was pretty good. Not amazing just shy of great but the price point knocks it down quite a bit. It's $175 per person and the amount of food in the tasting is slightly disappointing. Ingredients taste fresh and the presentation is spectacular, but something was missing. I'm not one that's shy to pay for the experience and for food but this one had me feeling I left some negotiations on the table. The wait staff is great everyone super friendly and ready to help. However the servers that drop off your food give a quick, and I mean a quick, blurb and can't wait to get out of there except for one guy that made it seem like he enjoyed delivering the food. The restaurant is cute. An old Victorian Ish house converted to a restaurant; tables are small, but you don't need much space since it's a dish at a time. They have a wood fired grill indoors and the smoke fills up the dining room. This is pretty Smokey and unpleasant at its finest. Especially at a place the cost this much. Overall, I enjoyed my time and my meal. The service was spaced out timely but slower than perfect. The price point really has this place knocked down on stars. It would work at ~$100 per person. Would not go for what it's priced at now. I wouldn't feel like I was missing out on anything. read more

I came here with my sister and brother-in-law for my birthday, and it was a great experience overall. The only sucky thing is the street parking, but I guess thats the Long Beach area as a whole lol. Food here is amazing. I just wish there was a little more to it. This was the first time I left a restaurant hungry haha. For the price you pay, I think an extra two more dishes would make it more worth it. Serivce is really good here though I would say. As soon as you get up, a waiter/waitress will re-fold your napkin upon your return. The restaurant itself is cute and cozy as well - sexy lighting and perfect date night option haha. If I had to re-do my visit at the restaurant I would love to be at the table side seating. Watching the chefs do their craft would be a cool experience. Also cute plus, they gave me a birthday card! haha read more

Michelins star restaurant , who aimed to be sustainable & produce zero waste. This was a six course meal w/ wine pairing. We were greeted and sat down at a table, pretty tight spaces & can hear other peoples conversations. The first course was the farm beets & that was my favorite dish out of the six course meal. It was light & refreshing, something I would want to try again. Cannonball cabbage was interesting, not the biggest fan but the flavors really came through. I don't know if I'm not fond of the cabbage and the flavors but it wasn't my favorite. The diver scallops was my second favorite because of the light & creaminess it had mixed together. It was paired well but I don't think I wanted two creamy dishes at the same time The pork shoulder was tough to eat but I am not a huge fan of pork so I can't really say it worked with me but I know others probably enjoyed it. Mango froyo was a little interesting, it had tangy flavors with a huge amount of mint. The pavlova isn't for me, but the dish looked creative and love the concept. Overall, 4/5 experience. I'm glad they received a Michelin star! read more

Good but pricey. Tasting menus take like 3 hours so it takes forever and the neighborhood it's in is kind of sketchy but the food was really good. The only thing on the menu did think was amazing was the pork belly. The trout and steak was crazy good, also the little tea drink was amazing. Top notch food. They need a better beer menu read more

Heritage is more than a restaurant--it's an experience, and there's a reason it's Michelin-rated. Tucked away in an obscure Long Beach neighborhood, this hidden gem is set in a charming, refurbished house. Reservations are essential! Instead of a regular menu, they offer an eight-course prix fixe menu based on seasonal ingredients from their own garden, with an optional wine pairing. While some dishes were not ones I'd usually pick, I'm glad I tried them. Each course was incredible--from the farm tomato tart to the Paris Brest, every bite was a delight. The service was outstanding; our waiter, Kian, was knowledgeable about wines and exceptionally attentive. The entire staff contributed to the experience, ensuring every detail, down to fresh silverware for each course, was perfect. However, don't expect a full bar or soft drinks--this place is all about the dining experience. A couple of minor downsides: the old house setting and open kitchen made it quite warm, and I left smelling like the delicious food I'd just eaten. Also, the $25 valet fee felt steep on top of an already pricey experience. We received a small bag containing house-made herbal tea, a honey straw, and a container of hand salve. It was truly a thoughtful and appreciated gesture. Would I return? Absolutely! I'd love to see what new dishes the chef creates each season. 10/10, chef's kiss! read more
Food is good but not sure the price is worth it. I'm not too sure so try it for yourself. You'll have an experience regardless. Parking is challenging so arrive early and vallet park it if you can't find a spot. Some wine didn't pair too well with the dish. We actually asked why was the wine picked for a certain dish but it comes down to their own liking vs your own. May have been good for them but not for all. Best part was dessert . read more

We went for dinner on a Wednesday night. Enjoyed the tasting menu, everything was delicious and thoughtfully made. Especially enjoyed the crudo and the fig ice cream. Everyone in our group had a different favorite which meant all plates were really good! Though just bread as one of the tasting menu plates is weird! Wednesday night is half off on wine bottles, we got an amazing chardonnay for $56 ! That day they had additional caviar and truffle service. We went for the truffle which was $20 extra, would say ive had better. The ambiance is simple, would have preferred something extra for a place like this. It gets a bit noisy. All in all , definitely enjoyed the experience and is a must try atleast once. Glad to have such a place in Long Beach read more
Saw this place on my IG feed and knew we had to try it out since it had a Michelin star. It's located in an old craftsman and had a very homey feel to it. Parking is bad unless you do valet which I recommend The food was excellent. From the amuse bouche to the 2.5 desserts. Everything was deserving of the star they received. Wait staff was attentive and friendly. We even got to speak with one of the owners and it was nice to hear her and her brothers story about wanting to do good in their hometown. I wish they had other cocktails but the wine pairing was good. And this is a minor gripe in the grand scheme of things So if you're in the LBC come here because it's deliciously dope read more

Overall, a good showing from a prefix in Long Beach. This was a 6 course, farm to table, contemporary American restaurant. Upon entry, the staff, including valet, were all very friendly, lots of smiles and relaxing. I chose the dining room, but I personally would do the main room, in front of the kitchen because the dining room was a bit on the noisy side, not super great for a date spot. I believe it is because it is a smaller room with a good number of people with limited sound barriers. Now food: Amberjack crudo (4/5): the broth here was excellent, and the amberjack nice and tender. For me, the cream in the middle kind of threw off the dish. It was on the slightly colder side, which I wasn't expecting. Good flavor, but I felt it should have been introduced differently than a wrapped by the fish. Pretty presentation but less elegant to eat. Brown Butter Endives (3.5/5): I've never had endives before, but I felt it was cooked well, a little tough and awkward to cut through, but well seasoned. What was a little off about this dish was the cheese. It was a bit on the heavy side and it took away from the vegetable. All I remember is cheesy. Abalone + scallops (5/5): this dish was executed very well. Great flavor, pea puree was on point, and all the flavors and textures went well together. Well done! Clean plate club. Aged duck (4/5): Duck was cooked well, but the beet + cherry jus was a little off. It was pretty sweet/acidic and overpowered the duck. Usually with contrasting flavors, I like to eat them together and experience a transformed flavor. This, I wanted to eat separate. Blood orange froyo (5/5): This was so well done! The texture and sweetness of the "slushie" and candied kumquat was excellent, bring it all together with the slightly creamy froyo and you have yourself a stellar dessert. Bravo! Peanut butter praline tart (4/5): Not bad, a little on the sweeter side but I enjoyed the praline and desserts between them. I wish the praline was a crumble or in smaller bits because breaking it was a mess and taking a bite while trying to gather the other ingredients was a bit tough. Overall, I enjoyed the meal. Flavors were good with a good amount of technique. Now to be a little critical, especially it being a Michelin, I have a few thoughts: 1. I felt the flavors were pretty good, but felt a little disjointed as mentioned above. I was itching for an enhanced sensation and for the ingredients to blend, but maybe they were going for a contrasting, yet complimenting experience. Here, I felt each ingredient was best enjoyed separately. There were overpowering elements on most plates, in my opinion, and I really wanted it all the blend nicely, like the abalone or froyo course. Also, although a 6 course meal, I felt I could go for another meal. I felt the course portions were on the smaller side. 2. Timing was a little on the longer side (2.5 hours for a 6 course). That said, they did provide a small bite to start, and I'm thinking that was them apologizing for the upcoming wait. No harm no foul, but I was hungry between courses. But again, staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. That being said, I'm happy I had the chance to dine here on my vacation in California~ read more
Went here on a Tuesday night with three friends. This is a small place with room for 20-30 people across two rooms. One room is by the kitchen and is a bit Smokey so you may plan accordingly to close to kitchen or away from the smoke. The menu choice is easy as they only have a tasting menu and they will not consider change requests. The menu is seasonal and you can get it with or without wine pairing. The first course were shrimp chips and dip with and octapus skewer. The skewer was very tasty, while the chips were a bit dry. The second course was a pallet cleanser with crème fraise ice-cream, caviar and chives. It was very fresh but the ice cream was extremely rich. It coated your mouth. We subsequently had crudo with peas. Very fresh and tasty. The next course was canterelle mushroom, which was cooked to perfection. Next up was scallops and mussels, both cooked to perfection. The main course was duck cooked four ways, again cooked to perfection. The wrap up was froyo with promegranate and persimmon. The final course was a chocolate bar, which was well arranged, but a bit heavy for a wrap up. We very much enjoyed the food and the service was very knowledgeable about the food and the wine. Overall a very nice experience we enjoyed ourselves for a couple of hours. read more
Soo good! We took some friends here to celebrate a birthday and LOVED the experience. Dinner was a seasonal tasting menu featuring scallops, pork, hamachi, and some delicious desserts (we all loved the frozen yogurt!). It took us a bit to get the reservation (we booked approximately 2 months out) but the wait was worth it! Parking is valet or street parking. The service was thoughtful, food was great, and ambience was nice (although in a house haha). We would come back! read more
Updated review - for winter menu and some changes in their coursed menu process. This time around instead of choosing from a 4-course menu, its a pre-fixed 7-course menu which is so much simpler and adds to a better experience for all. Happy that my favorite grilled cabbage was still on the menu and was still as amazing as i remembered it to be. Everything else was so flavorful, perfectly cooked down to the sauce and their wine pairing. Found my new favorite item on their menu - octopus in romesco sauce, so so so good!! read more

Food was exquisite. Ambiance is perfect. Service is 5 star. We were party of five. Everyone had different tastes. Age group between 19 to 60+ and everyone was floored. They have taken the food to an art form. One word to describe - Speechless! read more

A small 6course tasting menu in Very tiny dining room--wine pairing was sub par and the wine to food ratio was off--waayyy too much wine for the amount of food that was served. Probably would not go back but if I did I would definitely skip the wine and just go for the non alcoholic sparkling Chardonnay which was divine. read more

Let me tell you about this place! I'm a person who lived in Long Beach for over 17 years and had experience the evolution of Long Beach and its food scene. I remember that house on 7th street being a card reading establishment, who would thought that would be a great place to get a Michelin dining experience? We arrive at 5:28 two minutes before our reservation and they receive us to proceed to seat us and offer us drinks, the service is just amazing and the detail that they have to the customer it's on its way to be top notch Food was great something to remember about for a good time The wine pairing was perfect and the notes of the wines complemented the mea just extraordinarily The experience took us around two and a half hours to complete and it was finished by two amazing and delicious desserts read more

Is ther3 a vegan menu or vegan options?
No. This is a chef's table menu and you eat what you're served and lucky to get a table to enjoy the food. The website also states no menu changes
Any thoughts on sitting at the chefs counter versus in the restaurant proper? Is that really an option? I see it on Open Table for this restaurant.
Yes, it’s definitely an option. There are seats at the high counter that overlook the kitchen, and you can actually see people dining there in some of the photos. It looks like a fun experience — kind of like sitting at a sushi bar, but with a full…
Is there a dress code? How fancy is the dress vibe?
There didn't seem to be a dress code. The people wore anything from dressy to casual including jeans.
Can they accommodate for a gluten allergy?
Unfortunately, no. It's prix fixe with no substitutions.
How much is a dinner for 2?
$150/person...$75 each extra if you do wine pairing. Plus whatever you decide for drinks and special add ons
Can I bring my own wine and what is the corkage fee? Thanks.
Read it is $40 corkage fee
Is it hard to find parking for this restaurant?…
Not really! I found street parking pretty easy and now they have valet as well
What's the cancellation policy for reservations?
There is a 25.00 charge per guest if reservations are cancelled less than 24 hours before the reservation time.
What can they do for a vegan for 120$?
They do not make any menu changes. It's a set menu take it or leave it.
Are kids allowed?
This typically wouldn't be a place you'd bring kids to because the menu is set and can't be changed. Unless your kid has a seasoned pallet it might be better to have a grown up night out. You won't regret not bringing your kids here. It's so…
Is this place kid friendly?
Not really. The menu is pretty sophisticated and the restaurant is small.
Lunch hours terminated permanently, so it's dinner only now?
Yes. Just dinner now.
Is the duck confit sandwich a permanent menu item?
