    The bar.
    Jim B.

    Retired, my wife and I live halftime in Ocean Park; we've wanted to check out The Sandbar since it opened. With Yelp reviews all over the board, we walked in today at 5pm... and were treated like royalty. Seated immediately (the place was packed by the time we finished our dinner), Deanna our server was sooo friendly and helpful. We enjoyed an oyster shooter, Gouda mac 'n' cheese, fish tacos, a White Claw, and a perfect Grey Goose martini. All came out quickly (keep in mind, it's Memorial Day Weekend), all was delicious. Deanna checked in several times to make certain we were happy. Before we left, we peeked upstairs at the rooftop deck, and plan to dine there with family when they come to visit this summer. What a great addition to downtown Long Beach dining!

    We had such great food at the Sand Bar we actually came back a second time the same weekend we were in town. First night we tried the calamari which were tossed in a green curry with fried wontons. I could have eaten an entire second bowl they were so good. I do love curry. We also got the spare ribs to share with a side of mac and cheese. These were very flavorful ribs. The mac and cheese was very bland which was very surprising considering the other two dishes were so good. We enjoyed a couple signature cocktails that were great - the rum barrel, and yuzu lemon drop. They also have an extensive bourbon list. Sushi night is on the weekends and we brought our friends back for that. Spoiler alert. Sushi was great! Loved the crunchy spicy tuna, the ultimate salmon roll, and the ahi poke bowl. Definitely put sushi night on your calendar.

    The food was good the service not so much.. The ambience was pleasant, very clean and inviting. The steam clams were definitely the highlight. The crab cob salad was also good, just not a fan of the house dressing.. Too horseradishy for me. The yellow curry calamari was also very good. We are not sure why the service fell off.. Nobody came to ask how our meal was or offered to refill our drinks. If you don't mind tasty food with bad service, give''em a shot!

    Lots of seating and tables

    The view from up top is wonderful! You are allowed to bring up food but no alcohol is allowed. We were greeted immediately by a very friendly bar tender. We didnt come for the food we just wanted to check the place out. We will for sure come back!

    Last night my bf and I were looking for a place to eat and have some drinks. We were walking on the Main Street and came across The Sandbar and decided to try it out, and boy am I glad we did! The place was busy because of the Seahawks game, but we found a spot at the bar. Heather was our bartender/server and she was so great. She was so personable, and even though she seemed busy she always checked in to make sure we were doing good. At one point she even made a little too much of a margarita and gave us a little taster which was so nice! We shared the Gouda Mac with steak and it was 10/10. I had a couple Cherry Blossom Manhattans and they were so good too! We will definitely be visiting again next time we are in town.

    The ambiance was like a modern garage with lots of open space, windows and natural lighting. It was really Smokey by the front though. We were happy to sit in the back with the open garage door. The service was really slow. Even when there were lots of available tables, we weren't seated right away. The servers were nice and friendly but so slow. And our servers forgot 2 out of 4 of our orders. She eventually served 3 plates but forgot one. It was sad! We ended up taking it home. The clams were popular. It was good. Our favorite was the pork chops. It was unique and flavorful. The rest were just okay.

    Came with my partner and parents at 12pm. Wait staff was nice and sat us immediately. We ordered by 12:10pm. 3 of our meals were served at 1pm. We waited to eat until when 1 of the 4 meals was finally served. Our food was cold upon eating and completely lacked flavor. My partner order the Orange chicken and it was hard/dry, the texture of dried smoked salmon. My mother and I ordered the Fish Tacos and it lacked flavor, had to ask for extra sauce to stomach the meal. Do not recommend eating from the Sandbar, maybe the food carts are better. The establishment stated "open at 12" but we were later told by our waiter that the kitchen refused to start cooking until 12:30, hence our 1hr long wait for food.

    This is a newly opened business in Long Beach, WA and it was amazing. We came on a Sunday, on sushi nights and easily this is the best sushi on the peninsula. This restaurant was placed in a great area for friends having a good time and families wanting a spot to eat. It is located right next to the arcade and connects on the inside as well. There is bar seating and you choose where you want to sit. In the evening, it does get very busy, so at times there has been minimal seating available, for those with bigger families. On the outside, there are also food trucks available as well that are actively being promoted on the inside. The service was excellent here and Sandbar is an excellent new addition to the Peninsula that I recommend you try out.

    A coastal hideaway worth the experience, flaws and all:…read more Before anything else: Alyssa was our server, and she was fantastic. Warm, attentive, genuinely friendly in a way that felt human instead of rehearsed. When we paused for family prayer at the table, she didn't hover awkwardly or disappear, she joined us. That kind of moment doesn't show up on a menu, but it shapes the entire meal. It's the difference between being served and being welcomed. Mother's Day dinners are usually built on sentiment first, food second. The Pickled Fish is the rare place that reminds you why people keep chasing the ritual anyway. Perched above the grey Pacific, it feels less like a polished fine-dining machine and more like a slightly rebellious coastal hideaway, comfort, ambition, salt air, and wine colliding somewhere between elegance and controlled chaos. Some dishes arrived nearly complete, others still searching for themselves. But every plate carried sincerity, and that's rare in modern dining rooms obsessed with performance over pleasure. Burrata with Cashew Pesto, Arugula & Lemon Zest: A genuinely good dish trying to claw its way out of the plate. Peppery arugula, earthy-sweet pesto, indulgent burrata. But it lacks tension, the lemon should cut through the fat like a straight razor and barely shows up. The olive oil disappears when it should be carrying part of the conversation. And the sourdough eats like a sandwich slice instead of an appetizer; smaller bruschetta-style cuts would change the whole experience. The foundation is there. It just needs editing. Kind Stranger "Alter" 2023 Red Blend Drinks like someone trying hard not to make another predictable Pacific Northwest red, and mostly succeeding. Black cherry, plum skin, dry cacao, a little amaro bitterness lingering at the back. No syrupy jam bomb, no over-oaked vanity. Slightly rough around the edges in a way that suggests actual people made it. Not profound, but honest, and honesty travels farther than perfection. Pork Schnitzel with Sautéed Asparagus (substituted), Roasted Fingerlings & Onion Gravy: The dish of the night. No foam, no tweezers, no lecture about deconstruction. Just a properly fried cutlet that shatters under the knife, earthy fingerlings, fresh asparagus, and a deep savory onion gravy that complements instead of suffocates. The asparagus substitution, by the way, was handled cleanly, no pushback, no fuss, which says something about a kitchen that respects the diner instead of the ego of the menu. One sharp note of acidity, a brighter mustard, sharper pickle, lemon over the schnitzel, would push it from "very good comfort food" to memorable. But maybe that's the point. It isn't trying to be revolutionary. It's trying to make you happy for an hour. And it succeeds. Cinnamon Bread Pudding with Bourbon, Dates & D'Anjou Pears: The kind of dessert that makes you understand why people romanticize cold weather. Warm, fragrant, grounded by bourbon's dark caramel depth. Dates melt in like brown sugar with a pulse, pears add lift, and the compote is almost sinful. Unlike most bread puddings that collapse into wet cement, this one keeps structure at the edges and stays custardy in the center. My one critique: the bread itself runs a little thin. More of it would give the dish the heft it deserves and let the bourbon, dates, and compote have something substantial to anchor to. As is, it's excellent, but it's a few ounces of bread away from unforgettable. Cardamom Chocolate Panna Cotta with Espresso Chantilly: This dessert does not whisper. Cardamom hits first, floral, spicy, mysterious, then chocolate settles in underneath like wet velvet. The panna cotta is technically excellent, trembling at the edge of collapse with every spoonful. It's heavy, no question, but the espresso keeps the chocolate from going sleepy and the cardamom keeps it interesting. The dessert equivalent of an after-hours jazz bar, dark, warm, luxurious, just slightly excessive. Not every night. But tonight? Absolutely. Bottom line: Not flawless, but sincere, and that's the whole point. Great service from Alyssa, a kitchen that cooks with conviction, and a room that lets the meal breathe. Worth the drive, worth the wine, worth lingering until the coast disappears outside the windows.

The salmon entree was a really small portion and overcooked, only a few brussel sprouts on the plate. The rigatoni was very basic and the added crab was an extremely small amount for the added price. My recommendation is have a drink and appetizer and skip the entree.

The main bar is right there when you walk in. The meeting room is upstairs and there is a whole other wing to this building used for Bingo Nights. The main room is split into 2 areas. The back is more for food and the front is everything. We cozied up to the bar and ordered a couple drinks at a very reasonable cost.
