The Best Long Beach Restaurants, According to Eater Editors | Eater LA

"In 2023, Long Beach’s lauded Heritage emerged as Southern California’s sole Michelin star recipient. Around the same time, its owners, brother-sister duo Lauren and chef Philip Pretty, had a forthcoming project up their sleeves in a historic site: the chicly renovated City Center Motel. Named after Philip Pretty’s daughters, Olive and Rose offers bagel sandwiches and inventive coffee drinks during the day; for dinner, try Pretty’s neo-bistro dishes like the marinated olives, steak tartare, amberjack crudo, and roast chicken with foraged mushrooms. The sleek mid-century modern interior makes for languid mealtimes, no matter when you go." - Mona Holmes
