What a fabulous find! My wife and I tried out 'Wine on 2nd' for the first time this past Saturday. Tucked inconspicuously in a corner, it opens up into a nice spacious wine bar space with leather couches, regular dining tables, and cool wine bottle art on the wall walls. My wife had bought an online special offer that had us try this cool wine bar out. The owner, Theodore, personally brought over each of the four flights of wines that were part of the special. He described the variety, and was super gracious in asking us how we liked each offering. The food was outstanding! Hands-down, one of the best beef carpaccio's that we have had in all of the Long Beach and surrounding areas. Instead of a paper-thin slice like many other locations, it was a more generous slice that still melted in your mouth with a few delicate bites. The goat cheese Brie was delightful. As well as the garlic, red-wine basted escargot. We also enjoyed the bruschetta which was yummy and had a very nice mashed tomato jelly on top of the cheese spread. If you're looking for a nice date night spot for Valentines, or to relax and enjoy a casual ambience for a connected conversation, I absolutely recommend going to Wine on 2nd. We have tried other wine bars from the Wilmore on Atlantic, to the boulangerie on Main Street in Seal Beach, as well as the wine bars in downtown Long Beach, and this one definitely places itself as one of the better wine bars you should absolutely try. Thank you Theodore!

If you find yourself in Long Beach with 30 minutes to kill before your dinner reservation--or if you just need to wine down after a long day--this little gem is your new best friend. This wine bar is super cute and cozy, like if Pinterest and a vineyard had a baby. It's the kind of place that makes you want to whisper about your exes over a glass of Malbec and pretend you know what "tannins" are. They've got a stellar wine selection that'll make you feel fancy without emptying your bank account. The staff is incredibly friendly, like the kind of people who don't judge you when you order wine solely based on how cool the label looks. (Just me?) Bonus points for the charcuterie boards--they're not just delicious, they're basically the perfect support act for whatever you're sipping. I came for the wine, stayed for the cheese, and left googling "how to build a salami rose." There's a small lot out front for parking, which is basically the Long Beach equivalent of winning the lottery. Whether you're pre-gaming dinner or just craving a classy night out without the pressure of wearing heels--come here. Your taste buds (and your inner wine snob) will thank you.

You need to go try their coffees. They just moved in this location (relocated from Liv's on 2nd street) around October 9th. I have been there twice already and I will going making another trip to try other coffees. Cool ambiance and great space to get some work done as well (they provide WiFi).

Cute spot to meet up for glass of wine and appetizers. We had the mushroom pizza and the charcuterie board. We liked both! Service was good and easy parking!

30.00 charcuterie board. Pricey but delicious and high quality meats and cheeses.

Purchased a Groupon for wine flights for 2. Very cute wine bar! Located in Naples with plenty of 2 hr street parking and free parking on site (small strip mall). Not busy at all, we were seated quickly and promptly served. Great selection of wines and ordered a delicious charcuterie board. Staff was very friendly and attentive. The only comment I'd have to make is it is very pricey.

I was searching for a wine bar that served old world wines as their tasting flight & got lucky to find this spot! Ambiance is small & was not so busy for a Saturday afternoon. Service was great! My husband & I got seated right away. The owner was friendly & put us together a white & a red flight from the old world. The wines served were from light to full bodied & they all tasted good! I must say the bottle price for the reds were pricey so we didn't make a purchase this time but maybe in the future for a special occasion. The wine list also includes new world wines but the list of wine in general wasn't huge but I was satisfied with the quality of the wines we had. The tasting fee was reasonably priced...$18 for the white & $22 for the red flight (2oz pour) I glanced over their food menu which sounded amazing but since we just ate, we only had the flights. I am definitely coming back to try their food & other wines on the list.

My daughter took me here on our first wine tasting event! Awesome date night before dinner or movie

We came here on a Saturday afternoon and were the only 2 patrons for the hour. It's located in the right corner of the plaza next to Flavor of Punjabi. The place is spacious and clean with low and high tables, a great place to enjoy some wine with a small group of friends. We ordered a flight and were torn between the white or red, so our server was kind enough to offer a mix and match, so we did! A white Pinot and 2 reds, a Malbec and a French blend, for $18. The wines were alright; I'd get the white again but not the others because they tasted sour.. We also ordered food, a beef carpaccio salad and ny steak roll. I'm not a fan of raw meet so I can't review it, but my partner loved the beef carpaccio. I, on the other hand, enjoyed the ny steak roll that was over a bed of greens with red onion, cherry tomatoes, and basalmic vinegarette. It came with 3 thinly sliced steaks wrapped with Gruyère cheese and peppers. Overall, be prepared for quality over quantity. Each of those dishes were small and $18.

Feeling fancy? Wine on 2nd is the place to go. You won't find these wines in a regular grocery store. And you won't find food this high quality at the grocery store either. The breadsticks are to die for. We also had their charcuterie board. The wine was delightful and our hosts were very knowledgeable. I appreciate the attention to detail here. It is a fun and delightful experience.

Elizabeth H.

We received a gift Groupon of wine flights for two. We also purchased the charcuterie. Delicious! The service was great, the atmosphere was charming, and the live music was very enjoyable. We will be going back!

Let me preface with this: I do not like wine. This place is a favorite of a family member and we met for their bday. The service is friendly and good. We went on the weekend and there was lovely, live music. The trays and platters offered to accompany the wine were good too. I'd recommend this place if you're a wine drinker or lover or simply related to one. read more

One of my girlfriends and I were waiting on pizzas from Michael's Pizza of Naples and decided to check and see if Wine on 2nd had opened yet. To our delight if was open! We were warmly and promptly greeted by the owners who were sitting outside enjoying glasses of wine. We were invited in and happily took seats at their bar versus the tables. Elena, the owner was informative and very patient with our questions on their wine offerings. Following her recommendations we order a glass of Malbec and a Cabernet. We were also served their complimentary bread sticks. The space is very open, while we were there during daylight hours, I would imagine the space feeling more intimate at night. They may need to add art, music or something to help with the acoustics as I can imagine it being loud with other guests. They do have outside tables, but it's a small area off the parking so perhaps some plants/flowers or wine barrel tables would add to the atmosphere? Overall it was an excellent experience and we are very excited to have Wine on 2nd join our community. We will definitely be back soon and look forward to trying additional wines and their food menu. read more

Finally a place to enjoy amazing wine has come to 2nd street. If you're on a date or are simply trying to "wine" down after a long week this is the place. I walked in and was greeted with a warm smile and a lovely selection of food and wine. The boutique feeling is strong and the intimate service is welcomed. I couldn't be happier with my experience at Wine on 2nd and I will definitely be a regular a customer. Keep up the good work. I look forward to next week. read more

My husband and I have been here a few times, we've enjoyed several glasses of wine here. When we were here most recently, we had wine and the cheese plate. There just was not enough bread for the cheese plate so we asked for more. They were out of the baguette, so they brought us a croissant... and then charged us $9 for a croissant. I repeat, $9 for a croissant. We will not be back and love wine beach down the street. read more

Just happened upon this place in Naples on a Sunday afternoon. It was fantastic. Nice wine selection, and my hubby tried a delicious italian beer Dolomiti (i think) which he will be trying to find now to purchase for home. The service was great, found out she was the owner and the food was so fresh and good quality, so rare to find food made with passion. Really Yummy. Found out that was her husband in the back making the food. They said they have live music on the weekend evenings, a solo guitar player, sounds great. Just a small little local haven. I hope everyone in Long Beach will try it, heck, we came from West LA! The owners are a husband and wife team, go and show them some love. They have outside tables, we brought our dog. read more

Well noted Chef Christophe Émé né Guide Michelin Étoile Restaurant Ortolan, Kass, Chef de Cuisine of legendary L'Orangerie prepared an impeccable, sumputous 6 course Menu Dégustation using Truffe Noire, Sevruga Caviar, etc. that was fit for royalty paired with extremely well known ultra premium Bordeaux wines. What made for a very unusual pairing is not just having one wine but two of the same wine from the same vigneron but of two different years for a mini Vertical Wine Tasting that was so educational in being able to contrast and compare. For me, having the privilege to dine many times on Chef Émé's rarified Nouvelle Cuisine Française is a sensory delight along with Ian Blackburn's selection of superlative wines.

Not sure if it was because of the World Cup opening day, but the place was incredibly quiet--we…read morewere the only table inside for most of the evening, with just one party seated outside. At first we were a little unsure, but the food quickly won us over. Buvons feels more like a cozy wine bar than a traditional restaurant, but that's part of its charm. The seasonal menu (which I think rotates monthly) offered some really thoughtful dishes. The asparagus was excellent, but the mussels were the star of the night. We could smell the curry broth coming from the kitchen before they arrived and immediately knew we had made the right choice. Served with frites for dipping, it was one of those simple, satisfying dishes that you keep thinking about afterward They were also streaming the Korea match and thoughtfully seated us near the projector, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Service was friendly and attentive. Would love to return with friends and enjoy their beautiful garden patio outside.

They have an awesome natural wine selection that feels super approachable and fun rather than stuffy. The space is beautiful. The owner, Alicia, is wonderful--she's super hands-on and makes everyone feel like a regular from their first visit. A huge shoutout to Luna as well; she is incredibly knowledgeable about all their wines and always helps you find something unique that you'll actually love. She could honestly sell a capri sun. They also have a delicious dinner menu, so it's the perfect place to settle in for a full meal. Whether you're a natural wine fan or just looking for a relaxed local hangout, this is the spot. So happy to have them in the community!

The Blending Lab Winery

We were treated so nicely and it was great to taste their wines and learn about their business. The location is very accessible and it was a great setup to enjoy wine with friends. I loved the passion Chris has when he speaks about the wines. I can't wait to go back and try more when I am in the area.

We immediately walked over and I was trying to get more info on what they're all about and I left confused. I considered hosting a party at blending lab in the past & I was under the impression that we blend our own wine. Yesterday I asked the guy behind the counter some questions and he didn't mention this option at all. He said we can taste wine and pay for a glass...I was actually trying to learn more about the business, not the offerings at the opening party . I'm truly invested in putting beautiful West Adam's on the map, I love and purposely made an effort to move into this neighborhood. Maybe next time I'll learn more about what they'll be offering at this new location. They have a cute interior plus a small outdoor area with string lights. I was a bit surprised the glass of wine was $20 which isn't competitive for this area (the area is not nice enough yet) but I know costs are getting high. I do want to support businesses moving into our community but I'd like them to take into consideration that this is still south LA and a lot of people who grew up in this neighborhood isn't a fan of the gentrification and pricing the businesses charge I do feel for them, people like me moving into the neighborhood hasn't helped but even for me I thought it was a bit much. I'll continued observing but nonetheless am happy to see something be open up. Maybe I'll take a class one day if that's still an option and update my review.

I have taken my time to write this review until after my daughter left the school because of course…read moreI wanted to get a more bird eye view. With that in mind, I wanna say I am deeply grateful for this school. They have great systems in place with low ratio and really teach the little ones a lot while they're there. I can solidly say that at two years old my daughter can count from one to 20 and sing the whole alphabet along with about 15 different nursery, rhymes and stack blocks and has very advanced fine motor and motor skills because of the school. I'm a licensed OT and always felt safe with and confident in staff. Mrs. Nali, Mrs Dhammika, and Mrs Nayana are well educated in this age group, patient, and loving. All of the staff are truly wonderful. We went from infant, to wobbler, to toddler and transitioned very well. I don't know the frequency but every time my child which class they gave me a comprehensive developmental checklist to tell me what my child was doing or wasn't doing that was on track for proper development or not and that is huge. When you're a busy parent and don't always notice some of the things that Are typical or atypical to have some professional eyes to help you understand where your child is developmentally is huge. They are CPR trained and do a great job with making sure they're fed and changed consistently. My baby never came home hungry or never was crying when I picked her up and never got diaper rash there. If you choose to be part of the little app, you will get photos of your child. Once every couple weeks in the classroom is playing with the other children. They also send little videos and they do little Halloween parades and classroom parties. The Christmas parade is precious too! The focus of MONTESSORI is self-sufficiency which as an occupational therapist I really love. She would come home and if she spilled something, she would run right away to try to clean it up. She very much wanted to learn how to do things on her own and she knew how to threw away her own trash, which was not something I taught her at home necessarily lol It truly is adorable and prepares your baby for a successful road ahead with school and life beyond. My only thing I would change is having carpet or soft floor in the infant room vs hard floors. Other than that, everything really is done perfectly, and they have a lovely little outdoor space that they take them to a few times a day where they can ride bikes and do the slide and all of that. Learning how to operate in a group and look at what the rest of the group is doing and follow along is a critical life skill, and my baby has transitioned to preschool seamlessly because of her experience at this other school. In fact, one of her current teachers used to work at Wee care as well and has positive things to say.
