Best Lunch Restaurants in Long Beach

Great service and the food was delicious. Good option of drinks too

We made the perfect choice for our New Years Day 2025 dinner. Ammatoli gave us an unforgetable meal and memorable service by Jennifer J. We only live less than 2 blocks away & we were always walking past, seeing the meals and taking in the aroma of the food. We decide what better day than New Years Day to stop in. We had 5:15 reservations (we were shocked that they had availability). We arrived about 5:05 and we're seated promptly at 5:15. I'm not sure of the hostesses name, but she was very friendly, welcoming and had a big smile. Walking inside, it was gorgeous. The decor and ambiance was amazing, classy yet not formal. Thank goodness because we were bundled up and warm, we wouldn't have passed for formal. We were seated in the far corner near the dessert display and the bar. Everything looked great and the seats were very comfortable. Our tabled was lightly lit, gave it a romantic feel. Again, perfect! Our waitress, Jennifer J approached, bright smile and glowing personaility. We welcomed us and as first timers went over the menu, offered a couple suggestions for drinks and promptly returned with a Mint Lemonade (OMG it was good). Great recommendation Jennifer. She gave her her personal faves as well as popular menu items. For appetizers, we chose Roasted Beets Labne (a dip of sorts similar to a hummus only more creamy). The way Jennifer described it made us want to try it, and she was on point. It had a little tartness from what I believe was a sour cream mixed with beet. It's tough to explain but try it, definitely won't be disappointed. Oh and get the fresh baked pita, delicious! We also had the Fried Cauliflower, it was so good. Came with a dipping sauce but honestly it didn't even need it, it was bursting with flavor without it. Then the main course, my wife went with a popular item the Spicy Garlic Lemon Chicken. She devoured it, nothing left on her plate, she said it was amazing. I had the Moussaka, a favorite of mine and it did not disappoint. The sauce

We love the atmosphere and cocktails. The food is very tasty. Our server started out great but then disappeared and it took us 40 minutes for anyone to check on us. We still love the place and will be back.

The restaurant was nice and the service was great. The food was a little one the pricey side but it was delicious! The fish and chips were awesome, just like grandma used to make! Interestingly, we were offered bread in the bar but not at the table. The ambience was nice. We sat on their “patio” and could look out over the water. It was a bit cold outside but the heaters kept us quite toasty. I would highly recommend Parker’s Lighthouse if you’re in the mood for seafood in a relaxed but elegant setting.

I took my husband and kids out to celebrate Christmas Eve and possibly start a new family tradition. It’s such a beautiful restaurant and hotel. We were greeted by several friendly people at the front door. Our server, Shelly was excellent. It’s not as casual as it is described on the website but that was okay with me. However, it was more expensive than I expected. I read somewhere that valet parking is free for 4 hours but that is not true, perhaps it’s the garage parking that is free. Overall, I thought Nettuno was excellent and I look forward to visiting again.
