Got noticed from their advertisement on social media. Saw the Thursday special on oysters. I never heard of the restaurant so I wanted to give it shot. I had the oysters, ceviche, potatos and scallops. I had to return the ceviche because it was not fresh and had foul odor. The staff took the plate back and apologized. I would think that the restaurant is also a fish market so the product would be good. This was not the case. I was disappointed in the level of freshness. read more

One side is a fish market; the other side is a restaurant here at Roe! My girlfriend and I enjoyed our Wednesday evening on their outside patio sitting on 2nd Street! The vibes are very chill, simple, and modern. We liked the inside aesthetic, with the tree growing in the middle of the restaurant. There was even a live performer singing and playing the guitar. We got seated right away, and our server was so sweet; she was bubbly, easy to talk to, and gave us some good recommendations. I had Fish and Chips ($23), which came with two pieces of crispy cod and some good ol french fries. They were decent but nothing to write home about. The Pappardelle and Short Ribs were great; the pasta felt light but was flavorful from the short ribs. I would get this next time I come here! The food was great here but was on the pricier side for me. read more

We came here on a Thursday evening for a girlfriends birthday. Easy seating, beautiful ambience with two full live trees with patio lights, covered in it very warm and inviting. The items I ordered : Sea bass - crispy and great texture 4 Peruvian scallops (raw) 5 Arugula and beets salad 4 not pictured Spicy steamers 5 Bday dessert - meh My favorite if all favorites is the spicy steamers. Nice flavor, rich wine broth. Sooooo savory and their sourdough bread to soak up the yummies. Sea bass was my next fav but certainly nothing unique that you couldn't find anywhere. Peruvian scallops were nice tang with fresh wasabi and ponzu sauce. Everything else was just above average but not spectacular. They have a market next door that sells fresh seafood. May have to try their poke next time. Spent $100 including tip (no drinks). Great service! Cute date spot if you need one in 2nd Belmont. read more

I ordered poke. It had birkin pickles in it. I even requested no pickles - who puts pickles in their poke and no tomatoes. They still put both in even after we told them we have a tomato alergies. So gross. No need to go there again. Thank goodness we don't live close enough to even go again. Out of towners, like me, there are so many other places to eat at. read more

My family visiting Naples Island found this place on google. We ordered fish and chips, cod taco and Mahi Mahi sandwich. The quality of the seafood was amazing, particularly the batter (light, not greasy and crunchy) with very satisfying large thick fresh flaky cod. Best fish and chips we have had for a while. I had two taco. The one with fried cod was delicious. I didn't like the yellow tail poke taco since I was not used to it in tacos. Our waiter was Justin, super friendly and attentive. The place is clean, upbeat, modern, and open . However we are right next to a noisy street. read more

This place wasn't bad. The server as very nice and communicative. I enjoyed the platter I ordered. The crab cakes weren't memorable though. Oh never mind they didn't have crab cakes lol which is why I didn't remember them. I would have preferred to have some on the captain platter. read more

Tried this place and it was pretty good. Menu isn't very big but just right. Salmon was the best in town for sure, the lobster roll was different but fresh with flavor and taste. The chicken sandwich was fire and the margarita was on point, however the fries weren't very good.. I love that it's fresh and not frozen but you need to cook them longer when you prep them daily!! This is a must try!!!!! read more

I love the idea of Roe Seafood, just over the bridge into Belmont Shores. It tries to fit a nice niche for higher-end yet still approachable seafood in classy sit-down atmosphere. I just wish the food were a little better for the price ($$$). VIBE There are two outdoor patios - the front which faces the street, and the lovely expansive back patio, which we always choose. They've got string lights and heat lamps and it feels very private. PARKING I'm usually lucky enough to score parking right in front of the restaurant on PCH even on Saturday night. Otherwise the side streets are usually not too packed. SERVICE The service is always very kind if slower paced. I imagine it might be faster if you're seated inside. Our last server was very gracious about replacing a dish for us (see below). FOOD * DO GET the Planchet Pacific Seabass ($33)! The meyer lemon emulsion ties this beautifully crispy-skinned filet together in a stunning way. The potato pave tastes like Thanksgiving, and it's all enveloped in this nice buttery scent. I longed for a veggie side to round it all out, but alas. * AVOID the strange pappardelle and short rib ($28). It sounds odd on paper with spinach and creme freche, but my mom went for it. Unfortunately it was unbearably salty, so we sent it back -- replaced with the seabass. * FINE is the cioppino ($33), which funny enough was almost underseasoned. It has a good amount of seafood in it, and I asked for a side of rice to sub for bread. I won't dream about it, though. We'll probably come back for the ambience and location, but for the price-point I just wish the food were a little bit better! read more

It's 4th of July. My wife and I got seated around 11am. Ordered two drinks and 1 Salmon burrito. 45 mins went by and I still have not received my burrito. Cancelled my order. Told them that I have things to do and I had to go. Give credit to the waitress and manager for persistence by stating my burrito is almost ready and that it should be ready soon for me to take it to go. I declined, no Thank you. The reason that was stated was that there was a backlog of too much to go orders. Hmm? Word of advise, especially if the restaurant is partially full. Take care of your patrons inside first. The ones that is trying to enjoy your restaurant experience. 45 mins is unacceptable for 1 burrito. With an ETA of 50 plus min wait guaranteed to receive it. Give credit to our waitress and manager for trying. Nice and friendly. read more

Food portions are very small. Items are expensive. Food was ordered were served in very small bowl with the majority being rice. The entertainment (Acoustic Soul) Was terrific but the food not so much. read more

Love the location. But that's where it ends. Years apart. Staff are phenomenal. Food is LACKING every bit of flavor. I had the worst tasting tacos...no salt or accent flavor whatsoever. Each taco was a bit over $7. I actually could not even force myself to finish. My food came with a side of fries which were also odd and unseasoned. Sweet potatoes with tons of garlic, herbs and no salt! They looked beautiful. Tasted awful. Did not finish. Also sauces truly need some help. The absence of homemade ranch dressing truly destroys the texture menu of fried foods. read more

Walked in to a nice, eclectic interior dining area that opens out to the front patio. There was a full bar and also a back patio for additional seating. The hostess was pleasant. Our server on the other hand gave off a professional but aloof vibe. We weren't asked if we would like any drinks. The place was empty but it took a bit for our server to take our orders and then disappeared until the meal was over. Although service was subpar, the food made up for it. We had the Pacific Oyster on the Half Shell, Planchet Pacific Sea Bass, and Prime Petite Filet. Each dish was very good. We ended our meal on a good note with the crème brûlée. read more

Fabulous ambiance and service, the moment we walked in. The seating is offered indoors or out in their lovely patio. We were served chilled water in a bottle right away, always appreciated. I ordered a cup of their clam chowder, no photo. It was very thick, packed with huge clams, robust flavor, just enough potatoes and celery; would definitely order again. Hubby ordered the lobster roll and fries. The roll was packed with lobster mixed with a delicious seasoned sauce that overflowed the french roll, so filling. I ordered the fish plate, Mahi, grilled veggies and brown rice. The fish portion was a very good size, yay. Plenty of veggies and a cup of rice. I was so full, but I still ordered creme Brule and the tiramisu, fabulous! The cappuccino was also very good. We will be back!

The place was not crowded when we showed up. We were quickly greeted by the girl behind the register. The food was good. I could not complain but i am not so sure i will make the drive from LA. The food came out quite quickly from when we ordered. The oysters were fresh and tasty but i was missing some spiciness on them. The staff was pleasant and helpful. There is very little seating in the inside of the corner place (i believe there are two restaurants). We sat in the outside seating watching people walk by on the sidewalk. Everyone was cool and we got to people watch. 4 stars as for the pricing i would expect restaurant seating. read more

And we had lastly the pear mascarpone. What a great experience! Glad we came read more

Roe Seafood is a casual eatery at the east end of Belmont Shores. The first thing that will strike you is the decor. They attempt to bring the outside in, with two live large trees and a general wood motif. The front of the restaurant is open to a patio and the street, and there are skylights throughout. On this cold winter night, the aforementioned patio area was tented, and toasty thanks to heat lamps, which is where my family sat. We got good service from Ashley M. I got a chance to try all entrees, here are my thoughts. I loved the Squid Ink Linguini (A+ grade), it is filled with plenty of ocean treasures, and is a nice size portion. The Sesame Crusted Salmon (B+ grade) was delicious, a much lighter dish, ideal for a health-conscious individual with a modertate appetite. My wife got her favorite vice, the lobster roll, which was buttery and had plenty of lobster, it also came with a side of fries and two nice dipping sauces, (B+ grade). They also have some great seasonal scratch drinks. In our case, we enjoyed a pomegranate martini and a picnic lightning, hazy IPA, both were very tasty. Being a beer fan, the hazy from Brouwerij West in San Pedro was outstanding. We enjoyed our night out. You will find plenty of street parking, which runs until 7pm, after that it is FREE. read more

This is our 4th or 5th time here as we have always enjoyed Roe's Big Seafood tower and usually their super friendly service here. Our cousin was in town just for the day so we decided to take him to somewhere with a SoCal vibe and yummy seafood. We remembered that their outdoor seats were super chill and had a nice weekend brunch vibe. We got seated outside but didn't realize that it was house fly season and it got worse and worse as we sat there. Especially once the seafood tower and other dishes came out. The waiter was super friendly and nice to us when we first got seated so I thought he would be accommodating if we asked him to move us. After asking him to move, he just said it's house fly season and it isn't really that bad right now. His advice was just to eat the food faster so the flies wouldn't hang around. However, we hadn't seen our cousin in such a long time so we just wanted to chat and catch up over some seafood. Not just stuff our faces and leave. That was the entire point of choosing this place for a relaxed brunch. We checked with another staff member who was outside adjusting the sun umbrellas. He gave us a couple of spinning fan devices that were used to scare away the flies. That didn't work either as we were still getting the same amount or sometimes even more house flies. We told him that we wanted to move inside. He asked us if we could move all the food by ourselves to the new table inside. Which is ridiculous. Who would ask their customers to move the food inside on our own. Especially a heavy and wet seafood tower!?? So I went inside to find our original waiter and told him we wanted to move inside. He seemed reluctant to move us and said there will be flies inside as well so it may not make a difference. He was looking at me and thinking you chose to sit outside so it's your problem to deal with. He finally answered, "If you really want to do it then fine but, I won't be able to do anything if there are flies there too. It will be the same as outside. So they finally moved our stuff and did a very half ass job moving our stuff. They left half the stuff at the old table outside and we had to keep asking for things again. Like chopsticks, soy sauce, water, water cups, plates etc because they just left it on the outside table. It felt like everything we asked them for they were showing us their face of "what a hassle" or didn't answer us and just got it and dropped it off at our table. It felt like we had greatly inconvenienced the serving staff because we had requested to move away from dirty house flies. At the end we didn't even bother asking them for stuff as we didn't want to inconvenience them anymore or get any more of their attitude. The food was actually delicious but service was terrible. Since our cousin was visiting we didn't want to make a scene so we just sucked it up and stayed and tried to make our cousin feel comfortable. If it wasn't for our cousin we would have asked for the manager, complained and then left. Although this place has amazing seafood, it is unfortunate that we will NOT be coming back here and Roe seafood has lost a repeat customer. They really need to improve their customer service and actually make their guests feel welcomed. This place did not make a good impression and definitely not a place to take someone who is visiting for a good time. Instead this place made us feel like we were not wanted there. read more

Probably the best seafood I've had and I come here weekly! My favorite is the cevichos I can't stop eating them like I rarely crave the same food because I love variety but man the cevichos blow my mind everything.

Roe Seafood Restaurant - The most Delicious Gin & Tonic! - Seafood Near Me - Long Beach, California

My first time visiting on my birthday 7-26-23 I started the meal with three oysters, you don't have to get six or a dozen you can get as many as you individually want. I thought that was amazing. Then I ordered a cup of clam chowder, and the Pacific Cross shrimp as my main dish. I also paired it with a Pinot Grigio wine. The waitress was beyond amazing. She made the best suggestions and was super knowledgeable and friendly. The oysters were perfectly creamy, and they had all of the side necessities that you need to eat with oysters. The clam chowder was some of the best clam chowder I've ever had, and I've been to the Pacific Northwest where they're known for that. The Pacific cross shrimp was both delicious and unique. The arugula salad base was perfect. We finished with the tiramisu dessert, and it was extraordinary I quickly added this place to a must visit every time I'm in the area. read more

I want to complement Roe on the incredibly fresh choice of seafood offered at the restaurant. Definitely a 5 rating, hands down. Don't change a thing. We recently purchased a house on Ocean Blvd. and are enjoying many of the shops and restaurants on 2nd street. Charlene A. read more

I am usually solo at Roes since I love to go here before i walk on the beach. My favorite dish is the clam chowder! It's so hearty and a true comfort food. One of the best in Long Beach, IMO. I always add the bread loaf, which takes the calorie count up but hey, I did say I go walking after. I sit at the high top next to the bar and people watch, or scroll my phone. The service is always attentive. read more

Roe has great food, service, location, ambiance. It's our favorite stop on 2nd. Highly recommended.

Met here for a group lunch on the patio. This is a fun area to walk around. Long Beach has a few interesting pockets to check out. The service was very accommodating. We had a fabulous interaction with Jason, our server, a conversationalist with great recommendations. Based on his rec, I ordered the blacked Mahi sandwich with chips. Delicious. Would be back if I'm in the area. Street metered parking. read more

This place is soooo cute. That ambiance is just adorable!! My husband and I went on a lunch date there today. We started off with a cocktail whilst we perused the menu... The Poke Cevichos were recommended by the waiter so my husband got that. He said they were good but a bit too saucy. I got the fish tacos and blue corn tortillas (they were pretty!) I really enjoyed the tacos. The black beans were also very tasty and the tortilla chips = YUM! So crispy and crunchy with just the right amount of salt. They have a large outdoor patio outback. I can imagine it super cute at night lit of with the strings of lights they have out there. There is also a smaller front patio as well. Our waiter told us that they take reservations so that's good to know. And different days of the week they have live music which sounds lovely. They also have $5 mimosas and brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. read more

LOVE the ambiance of the back patio! It's so romantic and relaxing. Low lighting. String lights overhead. Olive trees and brick patio. Great place for a first date! Our server, Ashley was very nice and gave us lots of great recommendations! She practically guided us through our entire dining experience and we were super happy with all her recommendations. Great service and great pacing on all items! The food itself was good, but not great. We started with the sashimi plate. Loved the fresh wasabi but expected fresher fish. Then for entrees we ordered the seabass. It was delicious but Nothing heart pounding. Overall very happy with the food. But not the best seafood I've ever had! Still think Boathouse is Better in comparison. Would certainly be happy to return here though. Overall really happy with the service, ambiance, and food! read more

Roe is one of my go to spots - consistent service experience, quality menu offerings and lovely ambiance. Highly recommend!

Went in during the week for lunch. This is a really nice place. They have seating out front, indoors and out back. They offer high top tables as well close to the bar. They are good for larger parties. My sever was Justin and he was amazing! Really nice guy that went through the menu with us, highlighting his personal favorites. I ordered the fish burrito with salmon and my friend ordered the fish and chips. Both tasted pretty good but it wasn't something that I would rush back to get. I will go back if in the area and craving seafood. The fish was really fresh, the chips were warm, the burrito was large in portion size and served with tortilla chips. There is metered parking close by. read more

Incredible!! Let me start with the Poisson Cru, which is a MUST TRY! We didn't come in here knowing what it was, but this is a creamy ceviche style dipping dish, which includes shrimp and fish in a coconut sauce. The chips served were fresh and the whole dish was a fantastic surprise! Cioppino was delicious, and came with a piece of toast that complemented the seafood perfectly. Sea bass was phenomenal as well, very tender and soft, cooked to really let the flakiness of the meat shine! Service was so friendly and helpful. I love the ambiance too, with a view of 2nd street and all the interesting things that go on past the sidewalk. read more

So, we love Roe. We come here a lot. I actually thought I had already left a review... come to find out now I hadn't. We absolutely adore the back patio area and inquired about having our son's first birthday party there. Gillian, the ever so kind, gracious and highly professional events manager, was an absolute dream to work with. I really can't speak highly enough of her. We had some strict dietary requirements which she patiently helped us with. The menu we came up with was so versatile and delicious! I especially loved the Greek yoghurt & berries, the arugula & baby beet salad, and the captains platter... all incredible! The party was yesterday and I literally want to go back today to eat there again! All our guests raved about the food and the ambiance... It really was a dream event; everything I could've wished for and more! If you're ever looking for a space to have a party, Roe is IT! We booked the whole patio, but you can get half too. Gillian is so flexible and accommodating. I was able to leave everything in her hands so that I could enjoy my son's party - it was wonderful! I'm already looking forward to the next party at Roe! read more

They have all the classic seafood dishes: calamari, clam chowder, and lobster roll. They also have less traditional things like a giant seafood tower. They give good portions for the prices and everything is pretty solid. Parking is pretty difficult on a busy day though, expect to circle around a bit! read more

Roes pan seared scallops, and btw this was an absolute most delicious dish... the scallops were cooked to perfection, and the German spetzles, I just learned what they were, loved them. The cocktail I had was a dangerous one, could be a soda gulped down, and I would be seriously cross eyed...lol, it was yummy, black vodka, who knew. Love the atmosphere in this place, would be great date place. I was going to sit outside, but is a busy traffic area...this place was well worth another try as changed significantly from being here 5 years ago, service was great met the GM, passionate about his restaurant and product. It is nice to try different dishes. Thank you for a lovely adventure. I will visit again. read more
