I preordered…read moreonline a veggie platter, a small cheese and meat board, some petite toasts, and the cheesemonger's choice for some extra cheese a week before pick up. We came in on a Saturday and was unable to find street parking so as others advised, I had my friend watch the car and drive around as I made my way to the shop. The shop was so cute, it's small but with everything you'd need for a cheese and meat party including breads, canned additions/fish, and wines! I grabbed a fresh loaf of baguette to add to the order. Both trays were ready and absolutely fresh. The honorable cheesemongers overlooking shop were very nice and helpful! One female worker was providing samples for a gentleman when he asked for recommendations and my cheesemonger asked what kind of cheese texture I generally liked and offered to give me a cheese from three different animals, which I thought was absolutely awesome! She even offered to help me carry my trays out. The veggie tray was awesome, a great size, half pickled half not pickled, the dips were both amazing! We got the green goddess and Calabrian chili aioli and both were such a hit at our get together. The peppers are slightly spicy and were so delicious. We loved the variety of cheese and did not have a single cheese we didn't like. The petite toasts with the meat and cheese board is a must! So good and crispy and a perfect size for a bite. The trays were really sturdy and we appreciated the care put into the layout. We'll definitely be back Oh La Vache!

So who knew we had a high end gourmet grocery spot on 4th street?…read more I don't buy chunks of cheese so even though it's their specialty, yeah, no. But I do love love love a wickedly good sandwich!! So was recommended to go to this spot and search out their sandwiches. I was so curious that one day after I had that recommendation given to me via a friend on the SWIM team I took myself and my wife down to this cute location. The sandwiches are premade, which makes it fast and easy, and sometimes they even sell out. The staff behind the counter were extremely friendly and we picked up two delightful sandwiches and were on our way. We couldn't be any happier with their delightful sandwiches. We sat in chairs outdoor outdoors on fourth Street and watch the world roll by. It was a delightful date with my wife. Many other couples were also witnessed, dropping in grabbing sandwiches and heading out. Put this spot in your popcorn, popper, and bubble up just right for you!

It's located in Bixby Knolls, surrounded by coffee shops, restaurants, bars and breweries, yet it's the only true wine bar right there. Honestly, Long Beach has more wine bars than most surrounding areas, and since the South Bay is packed with breweries, if you're tired of beer this is your sign to switch it up. You will not regret it. The food menu has cheese boards, salads and sandwiches, and everything I've had here has been delicious. The cheese boards are better than sex. There is seating indoors and outdoors. It's minimal, but somehow we always manage to find a table. The service is consistently great and the owner is wonderful. She will be leaving soon and she will absolutely be missed, but what she has built here will definitely be cherished. The new owners fell in love with the place, so you can expect it to be well taken care of and to remain just as charming. Parking is street only, so read the signs carefully so you don't end up with a ticket. If you go on a Sunday there are no restrictions or time limits, which makes it even better.

We ordered a couple chopped cheeses, fries, onion rings, and chicken nuggets for the little one. Everything was delicious. The crispiness of all the fries foods were spot on. They offered up some delicious homemade sauces, and their cilantro one is bomb (not spicy but a little tangy). The chopped cheese was melty and delicious, and the bread had a nice chewy texture. Service was friendly and low-key. Food took a little while but was worth the wait. Everything was so good. We will definitely be back!

I saw Momofuku noodles, Italian ingredients, artisan cheeses, and Jen's ice cream in the freezer. Even though the items on their shelves were interesting, what they're really known for are their sandwiches. Their spicy Steve is an Italian sandwich on house made focaccia and it's their best seller. The sandwich was well dressed and loaded with flavor. I also got a "steak BLT", a delicious roast beef sandwich on sliced country bread. Olives is not scared of acid , which gives great tangy flavor along with their creamy aiolis.

They were not cheap, but we needed them to be easy to handle and self-contained since we were at a park. Steve - thank you so much for helping make our day.

We stopped by on a Monday afternoon, and there was plenty of parking (shared parking strip mall parking lot). I have been on the lookout for the best butter I could find to eat with fresh bread, since our Europe trip and settled on 'Rodolphe Le Meunier' to try. I was pleasantly surprised that one of the places that carry it, was right here in LBC. It's a smaller shop, manageable by one person. The owner/proprietor was very friendly, and gave us some suggestions on cheese (which we followed: Milton Praire Breeze $8.99) and fresh European bread, which we intend to try (with the purchased butter of course). I'm a sucker for sour dough flatbread crisps, so had to pick up a box of that ($8.50). Note that it has a small variety of cheeses, all already individually pre-wrapped (this is not a cheese shop where they have wheels of cheese, ready to be cut on-demand). Next time, will take advantage of the expert wine/cheese pairing.

These sandwiches are absolutely stacked. In fact, mine lasted 3+ meals. I ordered the turkey sammie, which came layered with the most delicious cheese, thin slices of turkey, tomato, lettuce, on a fresh hoagie. Their interior is the cutest Italian grocer, stocked with any product you might need to transport you straight to Italy. Angelo's truly thought of all the small touches and I can't recommend this local biz enough.
