Long Beach Newcomer Touts Sustainable Fun, Fine Wine, White Tablecloths | Eater LA

"Settled into the former 4th & Olive space on a residential stretch between downtown and Retro Row, I see Chez Bacchus as a wine-driven, farm-to-table East Village restaurant aiming to elevate Long Beach’s dining scene. Chef and co-owner Christopher Meehan balances ultra-seasonal cooking with nostalgic, theatrical elements—tableside flourishes, white tablecloths, cherries jubilee, soufflés, a roving cheese cart, and a weekend high tea—while prioritizing sustainability through heirloom seed lines, regenerative farming, free-range meat, and seasonally rotated, locally caught fish (owners hope servers can even tell when fish was pulled from the ocean). Principal owner and advanced sommelier John Hansen curates a 120-bottle wine list and is training servers with sommelier exams, with plans for a four-course menu with wine pairings. The airy dining room seats about 75 under exposed ceilings and bow truss beams, with brushed cement and a hunter-green accent wall; the target price is roughly $60 per person before pairings to make finer dining approachable. A second phase, Petit Bacchus, will offer a separate grab-and-go cafe for coffee, pastries, wine, beer, and easy bites." - Matt Miller

Chez Bacchus absolutely blew us away. The halibut was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the flat iron steak was tender, juicy, and beautifully presented. We also had their espresso martinis—easily some of the best we’ve had anywhere. The ambiance was just as impressive—elegant yet relaxed, with the perfect lighting and music to set the tone for a great night out. But what truly made the evening unforgettable was the service. It was hands down the best service I’ve experienced at any restaurant in Long Beach in a very long time. Attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming from start to finish. Chez Bacchus has definitely earned a spot at the top of our list, and we can’t wait to come back.

Went here for my birthday and the service was spectacular!! It wasn’t too crowded and the vibe was perfect 🤩 my only complaint is that they had a guy with a mic that was doing drink tasting with a group and was doing it on the microphone and everyone throughout the restaurant heard it whether or not you were a part which I thought was annoying. Other wise super yummy and takes care of their guests, they gave me desert in a glass 😋🤌🏾

We went for their famous high tea on weekend during brunch. The tea is delicately prepared and well presented. The tower of high tea goodies is a good portion and a delight to consume. The clotted cream portion they served along the scones was very little. We asked for more and were served more thankfully. It was a great experience that I would recommend.

Truly chic and priced as such. The service was very good. I would have given 5 stars across the board if the offered more entrees with tea. I left hungry. Nice location. Arrive early parking can be a headache if you do not valet. I would visit again. Also the chef is amazing. He came out to visit our table. That was the topping on the cake.

Wow! Just wow. This is the third time I’ve had the privilege of dining at Chez Bacchus. Every single time I am blown away by the service, the food and the incredible experience. Not only is Chef Danny a genius, but his food is so special and meaningful. Isaac always provides us such wonderful service and thoughtful wine pairings. Chez Bacchus is one in a million.

We had a wonderful experience—the entire crew was incredibly kind and attentive. Our teapots were always full, and the service was exceptional. Everything was absolutely delicious.

The atmosphere was fancy and the Host sat us down near the windows in the front. He placed our napkins on our laps, he asked if we wanted flat or sparkling water. We received our menus and the wine list and water very quickly. We ordered appetizer and the food came out quickly. We ordered octopus appetizer, duck, risotto, and a millefeuille apple dessert. The octopus and duck was excellent. We shared everything and it all tasted great. We weren’t completely satisfied with the risotto recipe. We came in winter and sitting by the window was quite cold. There was a large party, and a few other couples. There is actually a great place to sit at the bar to have a meal as well. We thought it wasn’t that busy for a Friday. We came to celebrate a birthday, and they brought our dessert with a candlelit on top. I would love to come again for a special occasions. The price could have been price better. The wine list was excellent. We were overall very happy.

Celebrated our 20th wedding g anniversary and the service and food were great. Since we walked in we were greeted with a warm smile and the wine selection was great.

We chose this restaurant for our wedding anniversary dinner/date night. We were impressed by its quaint atmosphere (twinkle lights and vintage cinema projected on silent in the background). Apparently they're known for their afternoon tea services, but their seasonally rotating dinner menu is top notch! I had the duck and my husband had the lamb. Both were exceptionally delicious. Their fresh breads are so yummy too. We had a few cocktails and wine with dinner. No complaints there. The server was probably the best I've ever had. He was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. I wish I remembered his name! We will definitely be back, and recommended this place to our friends and family too. They have a masquerade happening for Halloween that we may attend.

Took my friend here for her special birthday. It's an absolutely gorgeous space with lovely decor and wait staff to match. They really do dress the part and you feel very pampered. We were, however, both disappointed in the food. That wasn't anything really on the plates that just wowed us. The summer peach salad was quite good. Then we had a chicken pisto sandwich that was bland and in serious need of some seasoning. A mushroom quiche was pretty good. The baked tier was chocolate chip scones, and a corn muffins. I thought the scones were over baked and hard and the corn muffins were just full of frozen corn. It was just really odd for a tea item. The top level desserts really didn't improve on things. There were two cake pops that were dulce de Leche and they barely had any flavor either. I took one bite. There was a watermelon shooter that had become lukewarm. A couple of pretty Lintzer cookies, and a pretty fruit tart that someone else mentioned was in an ice cream cone flavored dessert cup. It was very odd. A bruschetta piece was average. So it was quite a bit of money for a lackluster meal, unfortunately. I would definitely go back again, but I'd need to be sure that the menu has been revamped.

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Fantastic afternoon high tea experience. A friend treated me to an afternoon tea here for my birthday and we had an amazing time. We've been to our share of fancy teas and this one's among the top. The interior was gorgeous, with great light from all their large windows. I felt relaxed the instant I walked in. The servers made us feel welcome right away and were fantastic throughout. You know you're in for great service when they switch out the default white napkin for a black one since you're wearing black. After looking at their two tea options, we both decided on the Bacchus Tower, as the upgrade to the Queen's Tower didn't seem necessary at the time. Our server brought out a tea box with the loose leaf teas to explain our options, and we were off to the races! They brought out a small salad to start, which was kind of different--most teas will just drop off your tiered tower of stuff and that'd be that. The summer salad with market peaches was delicious; I imagine this salad will change seasonally. Since one of the savory tier items was a chicken salad sandwich and I don't eat meat, they had no problem with me subbing it with a second quiche. All the various items were great, with some interesting choices, like the watermelon shooters, which were refreshing. We did end up spontaneously getting a bottle of sparkling wine, for which they brought out one of those tableside standing ice buckets, raising the fanciness level up another notch. They never made us feel hurried, and we lingered a good long while. We were both very impressed--I think we'll be back for another special occasion before too long!

Went here for a friend's birthday and the experience was superb! Negatives: -price, this place is a higher fair high class restaurant. This is to be expected, however the experience we got was definitely unforgettable. Positives: -service was amazing. From the servers to the owner, the care and attention to detail was outstanding. -food was great, we had table side bananas foster and very exquisite entrées. I had lamb neck, my wife had salmon, and the appetizer bread was great too. -ambiance was high class and everyone was very friendly. Overall 5/5

Chef's Table Forever! Had the most incredible experience sitting at the chef's table and savoring 6 courses within the chef's "playground" of culinary creations. The service and hospitality was unmatched and the wine pairings were probably my favorite wines I've ever had. Everything was perfectly curated down to every detail and the farm to fresh food was equal to the fun aesthetic throughout the night, always smiles on our faces. We hosted a group of colleagues from all around the globe and they said it was one of the coolest things they've ever done. Such a special memory!

I am an afternoon tea fanatic, so when some friends of mine heard about the tea service here, I knew I had to add it to my list to try. Unfortunately, the friends were already over it not because they did not offer GF and vegan options for those who needed it, but basically because they were provided with a response that you can't experience the real thing if you have those options and it won't be as good. I can say that is not the case, because we have gone to many afternoon teas that offer it and that I even enjoyed more as someone who orders the regular menu items. I decided to give this place a try anyway and the service was great when I made my reservation. The gentleman said they had the whole day open, but when I wanted 1:00 he really kept pushing for 12:30 for some reason. I caved, despite the fact that I was going to be lucky to be on time as I was volunteering right before on that day. I received my text later that evening to confirm my reservation at midnight. Huh?? So I had to call the next day and I was told that it defaults to AM and it was a miss. They were now assuming my reservation was noon and I had to say 12:30. When the day came, we arrived just on time and were lucky to find street parking which was not easy to do. I did not fee like paying $15 to valet my car. The man working the valet station was very kind and opened the door for us. We were seated promptly in a very sunny area. Melissa introduced herself to us and informed us that she would be our server. They asked if any of us had allergies. We informed her that Steven doesn't eat fish so they insisted on putting my shrimp salad crostini on the side and offered him an extra cucumber and cheese sandwich which was nice. We picked out our teas, I really liked that the servers go over each one and what is in them, and I really liked that they were loose leaf teas. I haven't had that happen at other businesses yet for high teas. She made them in front of us and we watched them brew, We also ordered bacon on the side so Steven would have more food. That was a thick, fatty, very rich piece of bacon. As our teas got low they were on top of filling it with more hot water. A gentleman brought our tea tower over and went over all of the options. We also had our cream and jams brought over. I really enjoyed the cranberry jam. I was not a fan of the scone as it seemed undercooked in the middle and had a weird aftertaste. Steven didn't mind it but commented that the cookie was stale. I didn't get to it as I got full before I finished the cookie and another dessert. I enjoyed the lemon poppy muffin and the chocolate covered strawberry very much. Everything else was okay, and the shrimp crostini had a fishy taste to it. What disappointed me though, was the fact that once there was a big party in the back, Melissa forgot about us. She never checked on us again and we saw her only tending to the big party in the back. Either she was moved there or just forgot about us because we were never offered more hot water or checked on again, Eventually the gentleman picked up our plates and another server brought me a to go box and brought the bill. Overall, I enjoyed the service and loved the loose leaf tea, but I have had better experiences and tastings so I probably won't be back unless another party wants to go, or maybe I'll come try some cocktails on their other days.

I highly recommend this establishment! One word comes to mind! Delicious! Food is the bomb! The service is even better than the ambience of unreal! What are you waiting for? Give them a call and order something scrumptious. Just thinking about it make my mouth water! A true gem!

My cousins and I met up for afternoon tea at Chez Bacchus. I made a reservation in advance and tea is about $49.50 per person. Parking can be a bit of a search but I was able to find a spot on the street nearby. However, the restaurant offers valet if you're running late. Once we were seated, the staff came by to take any drink orders in addition to tea. They even did an entire tea explanation describing the different loose teas offered. We each received our own teapot with tea of choice and we went with: Christmas tea (x2), Peach Ginger, and Vanilla Almond Jasmine tea. We were pretty impressed with the tea presentation. We were told that our teapots would never go empty and they were right. Our teapots kept getting topped off. We even had to ask for additional sugar and cream at one point. Once the drinks were settled, they brought out the soup course which was a delicious little start to our tea. The food tower consisted of sandwiches, scones, and desserts. They offered cucumber, shrimp salad, and mushroom sandwiches. The scones came with the smallest amount of jam and clotted cream known to man. We had to ask for additional clotted cream. The dessert plate came with some bars, fresh grapes, and a salted caramel dessert in a glass. While the desserts weren't my favorites of the tea, I really enjoyed the salted caramel pudding glass. We had a lovely time chatting with one another and were never rushed throughout the afternoon. The staff was great and we really enjoyed our time at Chez Bacchus. I can't wait come back to try their dinner menu.

Came here for a family dinner a few months ago; had great attentive service (it wasn't too busy in the restaurant at the time) and enjoyed all of the dishes we ordered to share: Crispy Duck Confit Salad, Charred Spanish Octopus, and the Crispy Tempura Fried Shrimp. Everything was delicious! A table favorite was the Bacchus Bread because they came with different kinds of bread and dips/spreads to eat them with. For the entrees, we ordered a chicken, pasta, and braised short rib also to share. We got the Harvest Apples Flambé for dessert just because we knew they come to the table to make the apples flambe in front of you :) Overall really enjoyed the dinner and restaurant interior! I personally felt the service was a little too performative - nothing inappropriate or bad, but you know the difference between genuine service hospitality and when someone might be laying on the smiles and happy tones a little too strong. There was also one mistake with our bill that double charged us (two bottles of wine instead of one), but we went back and they corrected their mistake immediately. Also wanted to give a small shout out to the bartender who came by to talk to us about their drink menu and got us some great cocktails and had some good conversation with us!

More like 3.5 rounding up. Took part in afternoon tea here. The service was great and loved how the servers went all in with their hats and color coordinated attire. Service was wonderful. Our server was nice enough to move us to a more shaded table since we were burning up from the sun coming in and sipping hot tea. Unfortunately, the food itself was just average. Ordered the additionally bread basket but was very underwhelmed. The bacon was good but at $6 for one slice I would not order nor recommended it at that price. There were very few savories, only three different types and they were pretty small and mostly vegetarian. The scones I'd say were the best thing. Desserts too sweet. The blueberry coffee cake was dry towards the bottom. I love afternoon tea and have had many iterations, so when comparing this to my other experiences it really did fall short. The tea selection was ok but none of the varieties wowed me. I also wish they were able to provide tea warmers so that the tea stayed hot as you drank it. Parking in the area is terrible. Challenging to find street parking at times and valet is $15.

I was here for Afternoon Tea. It was a fantastic experience! Everything was so carefully carried out. Delicious assortment of traditional tea treats, with touch of excellence and elegance. My friends and I had tried another local Tea House....this experience was head and shoulders above! Highly recommend!! I plan to come back for dinner...if the tea treats are this good, I can't imagine how delicious dinner will be! Staff are excellent, as is the service. Ambiance is elegant. Price point $$$ and worth it!!

Loved the afternoon tea experience and will go back to try dinner. My friend and I decided to put on our fascinators and enjoy tea. She arrived before I did and spoke very highly of the service from time someone opened the door. She loved her drink and the bartender's presence and personality. The restaurant is spacious with a very quaint feel to it. It really stands out on the corner. EVERYONE is friendly here, which makes the service top notch and shows how much they appreciate their customers. Now to the tea... The parsnip soup was decent...I was hungry but this did not particularly stand out to me. The tea selection is nice with a variety of 4 black teas, and 4 other teas. You can catch the aroma to get a feel for the flavor. We enjoyed the Wild Rose and Ginger Peach. My only observation is that it can steep in the water for too long since they ensure you keep hot water in your teapot. The tea tower was superb! I was surprisingly full by the time we got to the top tier and couldn't eat all of it. The shrimp salad crostini was my fave and I wish I had more! The middle tier was my overall favorite and since we were full, we barely touched the top tier. Great experience all around! Check them out

What a lovely experience. The High Tea at Chez Bacchus was the best I've had since London. The atmosphere is classic. The service friendly and well informed. The food... oh my goodness...the food was delicious. The soup, the tower and the tea were all perfection right down to the clotted cream and jam. The ladies in their hats made me wish I had worn one, therefore I must return. My only question is shall I return for another High Tea before I try dinner? The tea was so delicious it has me wondering how good the dinner will be! Save your ducats because it's not cheap Parking is difficult and valet parking is $15. The food and experience is well worth the money. Make a reservation.

Stop what you're doing and go ahead and book your tea reservation now. They have tea Saturday's and Sundays from 12-3pm. I'll wait ....go go go.......... Great, now you're back so we can get to it. This is an extremely high end top service tea. From the hostess to the seating arrangements to the service it is 100/10 stars. This is fine dining, old school customer service, knock it out of the park all around! The extreme levels of comfort, politeness, "it's all in the details" service is first class. We had the tea which is price fixed and a set menu. You can add on a slab of bacon (thick and delicious) and house bread (ORDER THE BREAD!!!!!). The bread is sourdough based and comes with a salted one, molasses, and jalapeño cheddar. It is SO AMAZING. Today there were no eggs (you can usually order a side of eggs too, but today could not due to the county-wide egg shortage). Melissa was our server and she was polished, professional, and gave us an educational tour of the different blends of tea. We each got our own tea pot and they were clear so they replenished the hot water regularly. I swear my tea pot never got cold or empty! The food was spectacular we could barely finish and had to take the desserts home. The shrimp salad sandwich was the substitute for the egg salad. It was so darn good. The mushroom was pleasantly salty. The cucumber sandwich bread was the most light and fluffy bread ever made. The scone and muffin came out still warm! Both were good but since the scone is typically crumbly it would be nice if the muffin was less crumbly to balance it out. That's just a taste preference for me. I got the Christmas blend tea. It had notes of cinnamon and other spices. It was recommended by Melissa and was delicious. I'm so glad I tried that flavor. Hubby got the London and he enjoyed it. Who are we kidding, he enjoyed the slab of bacon the most (ha!). The mushroom/quince/parsnip soup was warm and had hints of bacon. It was a nice starter! The restaurant is classy, has an old-time feel, they showed black and white classics on the tv screen in the back. The table settings were pristine and the tea sets were beautiful. Parking is very limited, be prepared to find parking on the street. This place is epic. Everyone should come enjoy tea here as a special treat. The chefs pop their heads in the little window occasionally and they give a friendly wave! Will be booking another visit soon! 10000 stars!

We came here for my cousin's 40th birthday, excited as longtime afternoon tea lovers. The ambiance was beautiful, servers elegant, and drinks enjoyable -- but the food and service did not live up to expectations. First impressions: The atmosphere is beautiful, elegant, and welcoming. The servers looked polished in their fascinators, which added to the classy vibe. We were seated right away and offered flat or sparkling water, which was a nice touch. Drinks were also promising -- I especially enjoyed my peach bellini. The food: We ordered two individual towers ($65 each) plus a bread basket. Unfortunately, the food presentation did not match the quality. The scones were dry, the chocolate chips overbaked, and the sandwiches were skimpy -- we literally received half a sandwich. The quiche was okay, the crostini chewy and cold, and the fruit tart was served in a wafer shell instead of pastry, which gave it a store-bought feel. I had asked for a boiled egg sandwich (since the menu said eggs any style were available), but what came out was a tiny round piece of bread with some scrambled egg on top -- For the price point, we were expecting high-quality, memorable finger foods, but instead it felt more like style over substance -- beautiful from afar but disappointing up close. The service & billing: Service was just okay. We had to request basics like milk and sugar, which should be standard at a tea service. What really soured the experience, though, was the billing issue. My cousin had paid a $100 deposit, which we were told would be applied to the bill. Instead, the system charged us the full amount without deducting it, leaving us with an extra $100 charge. Staff explained it was due to a new point-of-sale system and promised a refund within 3-5 business days. Regardless, it felt careless and unprofessional -- especially on a milestone birthday. Overall: Ambiance and drinks were the highlights. But the food was underwhelming, service lacked attentiveness, and the billing mishap left a bad impression. For $65 per person, we expected a polished high tea experience. Unfortunately, this one fell short, and it was disappointing to have such a lackluster celebration for such an important occasion.

Such a beautiful space! I wanted to take my little girl out for afternoon tea and did a quick search for new places between LA and OC and Chez Bacchus came up. So glad we decided to make the drive down to Long Beach from Hermosa Beach. My husband decided to join us since I saw that they have a regular non tea menu. FYI, they actually only do Afternoon Tea from 1-3 on the weekends and no brunch or lunch- but they were able to accommodate a one off for the Mr since we were the only group there today. The service was AMAZING! Our waitress was so attentive without being intrusive, friendly and patient. My daughter and I got the afternoon tea and it was quite delicious. They have a variety of spread for the scones (apple butter, Devonshire cream, and raspberry). The sandwiches consisted of egg (I think it's a bit heavy on the vinegar), mushrooms, and shrimp. All were scrumptious! They have a decent selection of loose leaf teas (my daughter got the wild rose ) and I got the peach. The peach was quite good. My husband got the bacon and eggs. They make their own bacon (smoked in house) and he was completely blown away at how tasty it was! We were talking about coming back here for dinner because their dinner menu looks solid! Came here on a Sunday afternoon and there was plenty of parking! Again, the space is beautiful and not stuffy like the other tea rooms and I would highly recommend anyone thinking of doing any type of showers here! They even have a screen for those who wish to display some sort of slide shows. Their wine menu is quite extensive as we were told the owner was one of the sommelier from Napa. Can't wait to come back here for dinner in the future! Cheers!

Ok wow wow wow wow wow. My whole philosophy on reviewing places here on Yelp is: a place only gets a review from me if it earns five stars. Well well well this restaurant not only gets five stars, I wish there were more stars to give it. What an experience! This is not just your average restaurant, this is attention to detail, attention to service, attention to authentically connecting with the customer. Our server knew so much about wine and food. It was so exciting and filled me with happiness. I have been to other places before that have earned a five star and they were well-deserved. However, this restaurant not only had amazingly delicious food, It had the best service that I have ever experienced at a restaurant. Well worth the price. In my dream I live here for every meal for the rest of my life!! My new happy place.

I went to Chez Bacchus for their afternoon tea service, and it was worth every penny! The interior was very clean, and the service was great! Upon arriving, our server pulled out our chairs for us and set the napkins on our lap. They had a good variety of caffeinated and non-caffeinated teas, and milk and sugar cubes were provided. The dishware that was provided was very elegant and beautiful as well. The food was overall very delicious, and I would definitely return in the future. 1. Squash soup (10/10) 2. Mushroom toast (10/10) 3. Shrimp salad (?) toast (10/10) 4. Egg sandwich (8/10) 5. Biscuit (10/10) 6. Ensaymada (9/10) 7. Eclair (7/10) 8. Cake pop (7/10) 9. Apple bread thing (7/10) 10. Yogurt cup thing (9/10)

A culinary experience! Very well thought out menu with great variety, but not overwhelming. There is a set menu with pairing option, or a-la-carte. We choose to order several dishes and share which proved to be more than sufficient. We were stuffed. We had a Reisling that paired lovely with everything we ordered. Settled on the Reisling after a blind tasting of a few potential drinks and it was the clear winner for our taste buds. Having the gentlemen who does all the wine ordering in house that evening to help us decide on the perfect pairing was a treat. Love the ambiance. It's on the darker side, romantic, yet didn't seem to have a dress code. It is more upscale dining in my opinion, so dress to impress to some degree. It was easy to make a reservation online. Seated right away and received wonderful service all night. The menu seems to change quite often, so definitely interested in returning to try some new menu items.

Amazing new find! We were at a Yelp Elite event nearby that ended at 8 and we wanted to continue drinking after so we walked around and found a beautiful wine bar named Bacchus. Chef Le has very beautifully prepared dishes. The space is cozy and they have afternoon tea on the weekends. Isaiah and Justin were wonderful hosts. We ordered a delicious octopus appetizer and the Queen Bee drink. We also ordered the large bread box with roasted garlic and it was amazing! We shared a dessert. We will be back on the weekends for the chefs table. This will be our new hangout in Long Beach! Happy Yelping!

Five stars for Chez Bacchus! Jen and I had dinner there last night and loved every minute. We started with "The City's Best Martini" and a French 75--both prepared to perfection. The house bread service with roasted garlic, butter, olive oil, and balsamic was delicious and set the tone for the meal. We shared the octopus appetizer, then both had the duck confit for dinner. The duck was cooked perfectly--crispy skin, tender meat, and full of flavor. We finished with the banana cream pie for dessert, which was the ideal sweet ending. The wine list is excellent, the service impeccable, and every staff member--right down to the valet--was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed the experience so much we changed Jen's birthday dinner plans from 555 Steakhouse so we can come back to Chez Bacchus with friends. Highly recommend!

We had such a wonderful time here for Sunday tea that we made another reservation for a larger group of us for a Mother's Day celebration and I can't wait to head back!! The tea was excellent, and the employees were all so knowledgeable and kind. The restaurant itself is adorable and just has a nice vibe. The food they serve is also excellent, I had a wonderful experience and cannot wait to go back!

We took a friend for High Tea at Chez Bacchus. It was the first time to visit this restaurant and we were very pleased by the experience. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. Melissa's style and expertise were a highlight to the whole event! The tea options were many, something for every one. It was especially nice for each of us to have our own pot. The sandwiches and pastries were very nice. My favorite was the mini mushroom quiche. Highly recommend for a personalized and elevated tea experience.

We went for their famous high tea on weekend during brunch. The tea is delicately prepared and well presented. The tower of high tea goodies is a good portion and a delight to consume. The clotted cream portion they served along the scones was very little. We asked for more and were served more thankfully. It was a great experience that I would recommend.

What a gem. And a little hidden. Tucked away in the neighborhood just outside downtown is this restaurant that is much better than it needs to be. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Great wine selection, nice bar and nicely decorated. Food and service is excellent. This place is vying for a Star and not for nothing, they might get one. But what do I know. I know we had a great dinner with some nice wine here and am pretty sure you will too. Parking is a little challenging but apparently they have a valet who called in sick the night we were there.

This is basically a 1 star michelin in the making. They stick to traditional recipes in

First time here and my party had the steak frites, scallops, and duck confit and everything was delicious! For dessert we had beignets, the banana cream, and the cherry buckle (my personal favorite)and we really enjoyed them as well. My cocktail was the Queen Bee and it's my new favorite whiskey drink in LB. Also, the service was 10/10, haven't had an experience like that in a while, can't wait to go back!

The service here is phenomenal. All the staff made sure that our experience here was the best it could be. We enjoyed some hot tea on a raining evening with some dinner. The tea and cheese plate with that amazing bread and was really all we needed but we ordered an appetizer and entrée to split. The first bolognese came out pretty peppery and spicy but we told the staff and they made us a fresh one that was delish and tasted like a completely different dish than the first one. This is such a cute place for a fancy evening dinner but I really can't wait to come back for the high tea!

I do not give out 5 stars much, but this place was perfect! We came in for The Chef's Table! It was divine! Chef came out to ask about allergies and how we liked our meat cooked, then he went to do his magic! We had dinner with wine, and the pairings were made in heaven! From the first course to dessert, the food and presentation were perfect! The Host, and owner, John and his wife, were very gracious! John is the sommelier - that's fancy talk for he really studied his wine! Service was on point! I felt like I was in the dining scene of Beauty and the Beast, the food and wine kept coming! With each course, Chef would come out and explain each dish! He made the simplest ingredients shine like jewels! Now, it's called Chef's Table, not Your Table! Each course was a surprise! We did not know what he was concocting back there! I do not want to tell you exactly what we had, because you will have a different menu. I did add a couple of photos, I lost count after 2 courses, I think there were 6. Chef's Table is what his heart feels like making. And, my family, and I, felt his love. I had tears in my eyes! You can really feel that the folks there like being there! The restaurant is immaculate! The bathrooms are super clean! The music throughout the place was just right - enjoyable! They also have a full service bar! Valet parking is $15 - just do it, the surrounding area is residential and parking can be a challenge. Dinner was spectacular! I am eager to experience their Afternoon Tea!

If I could give Chez Bacchus 10 stars vs. 5 it is with no doubt well deserved. From the moment I walked in the restaurant to the time I left I received the most amazing service, other diners did as well per my observation. I had been wanting to try the afternoon tea so I made a reservation and had the opportunity to do so. Melissa who was the waiting staff server was so kind and explained the tea selection. She also asked me and other diners as we were seated did we have any food allergies? I truly appreciate this because I do suffer from food allergies, luckily nothing listed on the tea menu yay ! The tea sandwiches, scones , pastries etc are made in house by the chef (not store bought ). I had the Egyptian rose tea which was divine . Of course I ordered a white sangria also . The afternoon tea service was amazing everything was delicious! Service was excellent 10 stars , Melissa was a class act (classy). The ambiance of Chez Bacchus is very nice/elegant , love the decor , large windows and set up . I parked on the street (directly across from the restaurant) which worked out fine for me. I definitely will return and would like to try dinner or brunch . I highly recommend Chez Bacchus.

Service was amazing! The food was also delicious. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Pork belly tacos and the octopus were the highlights of the night.

I had an amazing tea date with my friends this last Saturday! They host tea time only on the weekends from 12-3pm. Recommend to make reservation. They had limited openings due its popularity. The decor was elegant, the waiters had amazing outfits to match the theme of tea time, the introduction to their tea menu was definitely done differently compared to other places I have attended. I was not expecting to like this place this much and their price was more affordable compared to other places I have attended. I will be coming back later this month with my mom and sister and I can't wait to re experience it .

Chez Bacchus absolutely blew us away. The halibut was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the flat iron steak was tender, juicy, and beautifully presented. We also had their espresso martinis--easily some of the best we've had anywhere. The ambiance was just as impressive--elegant yet relaxed, with the perfect lighting and music to set the tone for a great night out. But what truly made the evening unforgettable was the service. It was hands down the best service I've experienced at any restaurant in Long Beach in a very long time. Attentive, warm, and genuinely welcoming from start to finish. Chez Bacchus has definitely earned a spot at the top of our list, and we can't wait to come back.

We were invited to an event promoting their new cocktail menu and it was really great. The atmosphere here is always nice, formal, white tablecloth setting. A great place for a nice date night that you get to dress up for. They recently got their liquor license, so in addition to a great wine selection, they have unique and delicious cocktails. We had the Sir Davis Old Fashioned and the Queen Bee. Both were excellent, though the old fashioned was definitely a front runner for my taste. We also tried the small bites, charcuterie board and ahi bites. Loved the variety of flavors! We really enjoyed our time and look forward to coming back for a dinner evening.

High Tea is served weekend afternoons! Very special! Very nice setup. Elegant with different China patterns on each table. Very nice selection of loose teas served in a glass pot (and water refilled as needed). Tower of goodies, nice presentation and also very tasty. We were beyond full! Very nice and relaxing way to spend a Sunday afternoon with friends. Our server was so mice and helpful. Very attentive and checked on us often. We are definitely going back for High Tea and also bringing our husbands for dinner!

Fantastic food service and ambiance. My girlfriend and I came for a anniversary dinner and it did not disappoint. Rotating menu with some regular items such as their octopus which has been around since the restaurant founding. Me have been here twice and highly recommend red meat and sea food. I had the Chilean sea bass before and while it was delightful it was very light so it didn't feel good for the price.

10/10 would recommend! Food is fresh and tasty, ambience is pristine and relaxing, and the service is top tier. We have been to Michelin star restaurants in other countries and honestly, Chez Bacchus rivals, if not surpasses, Pujol. I know, I know, crazy right?! The food is obviously completely different but the experience at Chez Bacchus was impecable and it's local! It's a five star/Michelin star caliber dining experience without the stuffiness and uptight feeling! Cannot recommend the afternoon tea enough! Already planning to come back with friends for afternoon tea again, to try dinner, and their chefs table experience! I regret not choosing this place for my birthday dinner recently!

We had a WONDERFUL experience at Chez Bacchus at Sunday Tea yesterday!!! The staff were extremely attentive and polite! Food was amazing, beautifully presented, and the tea was incredible! Was in London last year and had tea at Fortnum & Mason and the tea service here was STELLAR in comparison! Highly recommend this restaurant!

I went there with my friend for the high team. To start they required a $55 dollar reservation, that it was supposed to be accredited to the final bill. The place is nice, and the food was okay. If you are going for high tea, rest assure nothing is farm to table. When the bill came they did not deduct the $55, to which we had a receipt, nor they notify anything related to it. So we proceed and mention it to our server and they mentioned it will be refunded. We asked for a manager to which their response was 'they are working from home.' Then the "owner" came to say they had an issue in the system and we should get refunded by Monday. It has been more than a week and no refund has been issued. Even when we have called to follow up. Be caution when checking the bill, especially, if you made a reservation that required money upfront.

Chez Bacchus completely blew us away. Every part of the evening--from the food to the service to the ambiance--was spot on. It's rare to find a restaurant where you feel like every detail has been thought through and executed with care, but that's exactly what Bacchus delivers. We started with the Bacchus Bread and the Crispy Tempura Shrimp--both incredible. The bread came out warm and fresh, and the shrimp was incredible - taste, texture, freshness, presentation: perfect. For our main, we had the Creekstone Flat Iron Steak Frites, which was cooked beautifully and packed with flavor. And then came dessert: the fried-to-order beignets. No exaggeration--this might be the best dessert we've ever had. Light, airy, slightly crisp on the outside, and somehow still warm and soft in the center. Then dipped in a delightful dulce de leche. Unreal. The service was gracious and attentive without being overbearing. Everyone we interacted with was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely seemed to enjoy being there. You can tell Bacchus isn't just trying to serve good food--they're creating a whole experience. We're already planning our next visit.

Loved the appetizers. Loved the drinks. Loved desserts. loved the food. More importantly we loved the service. Wyatte was our waiter and we loved his energy and vibe. We got to meet the owner, chef and other staff. We he culture they have created makes us crave more. We drove an hour as part of a special occasion. But will be back because frankly they are worth it.

I attended a work related event at Chez Bacchus (see photo of menu). I wanted to love everything but the food fell short for me. The duck confit salad was fine and the flavors worked well together but the duck strips were very roasted and texture was almost like dried duck jerky strips. The roasted filet mignon was tender and delicious but the portion size was half of my fist - maybe 2 oz. Mine was cooked medium rare, which was perfect, but my neighbor requested medium and hers was very rare. I enjoyed my filet very much, however - just wish there was more of it. The butter cake was a full portion but I did not taste much butter in it. It was also on the drier side. A few people and I left still hungry and I picked up takeout to munch on. However, the service was fantastic and the owner and chefs were very nice and hospitable.

Truly chic and priced as such. The service was very good. I would have given 5 stars across the board if the offered more entrees with tea. I left hungry. Nice location. Arrive early parking can be a headache if you do not valet. I would visit again. Also the chef is amazing. He came out to visit our table. That was the topping on the cake.

Last summer I went to a Tablas Creek wine dinner at Chez Bacchus and all three of us that attended thought the food was very good, so was eager to go back again. The place is really nice and has an upscale feel, when we walked in at 6:30 it was empty other than a small private party in the back room- which did worry me a little. The server was really friendly and came over with good suggestions to start the meal, so I started to feel more optimistic. We started with the summer melon salad, which was very bright and fresh- it had these little pepper called sweetie peppers, which are my new favorite little pepper for sure. We then moved onto the flaming scallops and pulpo (octopus) . The scallops arrived at the table on fire- which is always fun- but they had peanuts in them and something stringy- I am not sure if it was the peanuts or the combo of hot nuts and seafood, but something about this dish didn't work. The octopus was okay, it was tender- which was good, but the flavor was nothing special. We then had the pork belly which was VERY SALTY and not really pork belly, it was more like a short rib. For dessert we had the peach pavlova, it was impossible to tell that it was peaches- it was overly sweet. It was supposed to be flambéed table side, but the wheel on their cart had broken so they prepared it in the kitchen and brought it to us. I will say that the location is pretty, the service good, they do not rush you, which is great and they have a very nice wine list by the glass, but the food needs some work. I am not sure if the chef has changed since the Tablas Creek wine dinner last summer, but the food wasn't nearly as good as the wine dinner.

I did the afternoon tea and it was so fun! Disclaimer: if you're used to generous portions at other afternoon tea places and think this will be the same - it ain't lol. But the quality of the food - amazing, delicious, and flavorful. Hence, why it might be a bummer you can't have more lol Service was great, the attendants were kind and helpful. It's all indoor (from what I could tell?) I gotta seated in the front and it was nice. You don't have to dress fancy to be here - it's just fun! They have valet but if you go early you'll be able to find street parking
