I hadn't been to Spires in a long time. I stopped in on a Saturday evening for a quiet dinner, and I was not disappointed! I ordered from the senior menu, Chicken Strips. Excellent and large portions, came with a bowl of vegetable beef soup, mashed potatoes, dinner roll, and tapioca pudding. All for the incredibly low price of $13.99. Service was great and the price, again, was amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Soft background music of 1970's and 80's pop tune. So relaxing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This meal would have run much higher at Denny's for example. The waiter advised me of nightly specials. I will return soon! read more

I grew up eating Liver & Onions and it's getting harder to find at restaurants. Thanks to Spire's, I can have it whenever I want. Spire's chef know how to prepare and present the dish. Another plus is it's on the Senior Menu at a great price. Restaurant has a parking lot and located at Cherry & Del Amo in Long Beach. If you're looking for hard-to-dishes, check out Spire's! read more

Spire's Restaurants - Liver and Onions, salad, mashed potatoes and gravy. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Long Beach, California

I used to frequent the Spires in Tustin growing up, going for their dinner specials, and although prices are much higher than 20 years ago, the dinner specials are still phenomenal value. For ~$20, you get soup, salad, choice of bread, one side, main dish, AND dessert. The portions are MASSIVE as well. For a Friday, we ordered the New York Steak as well as the Salmon (the two choices for Friday). The clam chowder was a bit too thick for me and not that hot, but I enjoyed the vegetable beef soup. The salad had very fresh and crisp lettuce, and the homemade French dressing was interesting. The garlic bread could have been more garlicky for my tastes, but the coleslaw was refreshing and the steamed vegetables were in a light savory broth. The salmon and steak were also both tasty. I really enjoyed the rice pudding for dessert, though the chocolate pudding was very aerated and too salty for me. Food aside, service was friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is a bit dated but is cozy and warm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking in the lot was easy and the restaurant is stand-alone in a polygonal shape just like some of their other locations. read more

The host on Sunday 4/5/26 made me extremely uncomfortable he had his entire head turned away from the booth and was staring at me I caught him 4 TIMES staring at me while I'm just trying to have Easter breakfast with my mom. Please if anyone working there is reading this please tell him to work on that it's very strange and made me extremely uncomfortable and made me want to leave before I could even finish my food. read more

Been to this location a few times. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I know the interior is outdated. For whatever reason I like how it has the retro vibes still.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One of the times service could have been better. But the food has been really good! We've ordered few different plates & they have all been delicious. The alfredo chicken pasta is also good! I've gotten used to ordering the crispy chicken sandwich (: I can speak on my experiences here & would recommend for breakfast/dinner! read more

This is one of the best restaurants you can go to now. The manager is on it. They give you all the condiments & sometimes extra food. If you want to eat great old fashioned delicious food. You can't go wrong with Spires! Especially the one in Long Beach, CA. Thank ya'll for providing excellent food & outstanding service! Reasonable prices as well. I know my family will be back over & over again. read more

This restaurant is so amazing , friendly staff , the food portions are great. We don't have to wait long to get a table. Also best waitress is Ariel she's the best when it comes to know what we want not only that she's bilingual. But overall everyone at Spires restaurant are the best!! read more

I forgot to take pics, but the service was on point from beginning to end. The food was tasty and hot love that I mean even my hot cakes were hot. We ordered the steak eggs and potatoes. Coffee was decent. Definitely will be going back. Watching the crew at work is amazing we chose not to wait so we sat at the counter area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice inside cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The food is decent but it's definitely overpriced for the quality of food you get. Not a fan.

I've never had an issue with any Spire's. They offer weekly specials and their food is good. The biggest unfortunate thing is the pricing has definitely gone up a lot (which is common) and their portions have got smaller (which is common). I went a lot to another location before since the hours were different and it was closer before it closed down. With the pricing and portion size, this location sadly isn't worth the drive. read more

This place is fantastic I come here all the time. So if your looking for food thats freshly made and low priced the spires is it.

Met an old coworker/friend at Spires when I asked him to choose a place we can conveniently meet over dinner (while we were both in the area). It was more about catching up with my friend then thinking about the restaurant but nothing (about the restaurant) got in the way. The service was so efficient that my water never seemed to be empty. My shrimp kabob was well cooked but not rubbery. We also ordered zucchini sticks as appetizer and it was pretty good. My friend loves the meat loaf here, it's a meal he regularly orders at this restaurant and says it's reliable comfort food meal. It was great to catch-up and I'm happy to have visited this restaurant for good comfort food as well. I don't get to this area often but I'll keep it in mind. read more

First time going here, but unfortunately I don't think I'll return. It does t take much to impress me when it comes to food, but I was definitely disappointed during this visit. I had the fillet of sole with fries. I figured it's one of the favorites since it was advertised on the window. The fish tasted funny- like it's a frozen fillet, and the fries were soggy when I asked for it to be extra crispy. The place is reeking with floor cleaner, which smells like a county building. The service also wasn't great, the girl didn't get my order right and forgot to return with condiments. I did like the dessert (rice pudding). Please step up your game! I know you guys have been around for a while, and I'd like to see old fashioned businesses stay in business! read more

Our waitress was awesome. She was extremely attentive and patient. I wish it were possible to rate the service separately because I'd totally give her 5 stars. Everyone had a really pleasant, welcoming attitude. The problem is this place is disgusting!!! Everything is dirty. Most of the napkins we were giving had random food stains. The table had unidentifiable waste in the cracks. The salt and pepper shakers were stained with food partials of prior patrons. It was just really uncomfortable, and I was hesitant to eat at all. Surprisingly, the chicken was actually pretty tasty. The wing was overcooked, and all had feathers, but the other pieces were perfect. The coffee was also surprisingly delicious. Everything else taste like a frozen meal. read more

Spire's Restaurants - a menu for breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Long Beach, California

I've been coming here in the past for a while now so here's some stuff I can share. I had the ribeye steak dinner with fries and the steak was alright. It's a bummer that they only have 11-ounce steak but it's ok. The fries are ok if you just put salt and pepper on them I can say it won't hit as well. I don't like condiments such as ketchup so I can't say if it will taste better with it. (apologies) They do offer more than steak such as bread, soup, salad, etc. So its price is well worth it if you're on a budget. I had someone eat the salad and bread. According to them the salad was decent and the bread was alright. So in conclusion, if you're on a budget and want to go out to eat this is the place for you! read more

Everything was great. Service was attentive and sweet. Menu was fine, food met or exceeded our expectations. Prices were a little high considering the quality and style of restaurant. Never been to a place that charged $4 for a soft drink... it's like 5¢ a glass overhead. But my kids had a great time and our whole family was able to enjoy their time so that is a pretty great deal! read more

Did you walk through the doors and into a temporal anomoly, seeing the stuffed animal game and Norman Rockwell prints? Yes. Decent menu, counter with a TV and attentive staff, as well as a corner location for easy ingress/egress. The centralized layout of the kitchen seems to make it a bit easier for service and the main dining area is fairly large. Yes, it's Spire's and while not life-changing cuisine, it's good and hits the spot. read more

If necessity is the mother of invention, then she cooked up a heckuva compelling reason for my wife, oldest son and I to eat at Spires last SAT morning-- Stomachs growling with well honed appetites and a time crunch. See? We'd just culminated a farewell mass at nearby St. Barnabas Catholic Church followed by an internment (burial) at the nearby Forest Lawn. The three of us were starving but in a hurry 'cause our son needed to return back to USC by 12 noon. Spires, conveniently located at the nexus of Del Amo Blvd and Cherry Street, screamed "Mrs. Right Now." Major plaudits to our waitress Maria, who capably obliged our need for swiftness and processed our orders in a very timely manner. Her service was EXCELLENT, and we tipped her 25%. We ordered breakfast, a duo of omelets for my wife and son while I tried Spires version of Danny's "Grand Slam," sans the sausage and hash browns...meaning my platter comprised 2 pancakes, 2 eggs over hard and 4 strips bacon. The food was about what you would expect-- High end cafeteria level fare. $67 for breakfast for three, including 3 coffees, tax and tip, seems a bit high. The restroom could have benefitted from a sprucing. read more

9 of us coming to Spires restaurant for lunch...or breakfast cause they do serve it all day. We sat in the covered patio where the staff had lined up tables so we could all sit together. Water is chosen all around. The smallest of us had her choice from the special kids section of the menu..she chose the burger plate. We had two identical omelets and one order of Eggs Benedict with a homestyle potato. One chose a Ceasar Salad that was huge and needed a to go box afterwards. A Cheese burger and a bacon cheese burger both adorned with golden French fries. One order of Fish and Chips that was a good taste drizzled with malt vinegar. Now my order was a Pork Chop value meal. It includes soup and salad and garlic toast and a dessert afterwards. Our table was well attended by Sonia. She made sure we had our drinks and napkins and overall taken care off. Judging by the empty plates, the food was prepared to everyone's liking. My pork chop value meal was great. Gotta admit that Spires was a great choice for a hungry family. We would definitely return. read more

We have been here several times. This is an older, quintessential "coffee shop". The thing I like about this Spires is the friendly staff. You always feel welcome and cared for. Today was another episode in the great soup quest. Every day they serve vegetable beef soup and chili. There is a regular rotation of another soup each day of the week, today (Thursday) being Broccoli Cheese. Soup is served with saltine crackers. I had the vegetable beef. This soup was very good,with a tasty tomato base broth. The vegetables were green beans, corn, carrots, turnip, cabbage, celery and onions. The beef is ground into small pieces for a light touch of protein. The Broccoli Cheese was thick and creamy, a nice hearty soup that leaves you satisfied until supper. This is not a deluxe gourmet restaurant, but a good place for nice meal, at a great price point. Two bowls of soup and beverages came to $12. read more
