Welcome to California, America's home to tofu, bean sprouts and vegetarians. Despite this, the state still manages to house some of the best restaurants whose goal is to serve up large, well prepared cuts of meat. One of the best examples of this is Long Beach's 555 East Steakhouse. Since opening its doors in 1984, it has striven to serve only the best cuts of USDA prime meat in a classic, dimly lit steakhouse environment. The restaurant also has an award-winning wine list and a bar stocked with a wide array of single malt scotches, bourbons and wines. If you're a carnivore, 555 East will surely cook up the perfect steak.
Short for 'beautifully bohemian', this inspired restaurant in Downtown Long Beach promises both amazing food and delicious beer. BO-Beau Kitchen + roof tap is housed in a two-storey building, wherein the ground floor makes for an ideal, intimate family setting, whereas the terrace has all the fun trappings of a beer garden. This restaurant offers some unusually exciting Californian-French cuisine with home-made touches while the beer garden offers 50 beers on tap for brew enthusiasts.
In every American town, with a population of four or more people, sits the ultimate icon of American cuisine and that is none other than the diner. It's where people come to eat pancakes, fried chicken after church or maybe just stop in for a slice of pie and a cup of coffee. In Long Beach that place is Jongewaard's Bake & Broil. Since first opening the bake and broil has become a local favorite by serving anything from meatloaf to blueberry muffins with speed and accuracy. Some local favorites are the perfectly seasoned hash browns and the homemade red velvet cake. Drop in to see Long Beach's take on the American diner.

This is a terrific spot in Long Beach for great jazz and a New Orleans theme. People come from all over to relax, sit back, listen to some blues and jazz, and have a beer. You can get creole tinged seafood dishes, like scallops or crab, as well as steak and chicken dishes. The interior of this restaurant, which was built as a modern take on the fish houses in New Orleans, has a very rustic-southern feeling, emphasized with pictures of blues legends and 1940's posters. Crab and oysters are the main attractions at this third-generation restaurant. They are prepared in a delightful manner and go great with a glass of beer. There is also a wine list with prices that are easy to your pocket and also a kids menu for the little ones.
