Great food as usual. Service was patchy. Had to ask for utensils, no salt or pepper on the table. But it was very busy, so that might be the reason. Oysters were meeh, regular dishes great.

The plants throughout and staffs uniforms give the entire place a warm earthy vibe. We dined for valentines, and each plate was thoughtfully put together. From the amuse to dessert, each plate was perfect in portion and mouthfeel. My favorite was the beet agnolotti, which surprised and delighted me with a dehydrated beet crunch. My partner’s favorite dish was the main course steak, which featured a savory and craveable truffle sauce. Our special mention goes to the beefsteak tomato milk bread. The buttery crunch of the edge pieces left me wanting another to take home. Our server was perfectly attentive and always timely with our drinks. It was a truly wonderful experience and I will be recommending to friends.

An absolute delight from the beginning to the end. We were met at the garden gate and whisked to our booth at the bar by a very charming young man who introduced us to our server who was warm, welcoming and very helpful. The decor is gorgeous, retro, fabulous and cozy all at once. I couldn’t stop looking at all the art and objects curated on the shelves behind the bar. Our drinks arrived and were inspired. The menu is wonderful. We shared the onion tart to start and had the pork chop and filet of sole for our main courses. Both prepared and presented to perfection and so delicious!!The music in the background was a hilarious mix from the eighties and the fizz of conversation from the diners at the bar and surrounding tables added to the atmosphere but was never too loud! I have to mention the bathroom because it was such a treat, but you will have to see for yourself!! Get a reservation if you can! It was worth the wait!! I can’t wait to go back, if I can ever get another reservation!!!!

About the restaurant

Our mission is to celebrate and serve the presence of the mother which resides above us, within our hearts, within the earth, and in all those who nurture us. We serve cuisine inspired by the kitchens of Mexico sourced from locally grown organic ingredients. Welcome to a seat at love’s table.

The idea of Gracias Madre was first conceived while visiting the families of our employees in Mexico. We wanted to do both; offer organic Mexican food to the communities we serve as well as honor the mothers who work tirelessly in the kitchens of Mexico and often live without their husbands and children while they work side by side with us in California. Inspired by some of the recipes of these families and the love of their mothers, Gracias Madre serves organic, farm fresh, locally sourced food, full of flavor and love paired along side with our agave-based cocktail program spearheaded by Beverage Director Sean Stewart.

Heritage Restaurant, Long Beach – A Well-Earned Michelin Star by Michael Broderick. In a city where “Californian” culinary ambition often plays second fiddle to casual dining, Heritage in Long Beach has carved out a place of quiet excellence, earning a well-deserved Michelin star. This intimate dining experience is a testament to ingredient-driven, technique-forward cooking, where flavors are both restrained, unpretentious, and deeply expressive. From the first bite, it was clear that Heritage excels at layering textures and flavors in unexpected ways. The meal began with an Amuse Bouche trio: a delicate prawn cracker topped with sweet Dungeness crab, a green leaf with another seafood salad that was to be eaten like a mini street taco, and balanced with the brightness and light crunch of pickled turnip. A seemingly simple couple of bites, but one that foreshadowed the precision and thoughtfulness of the courses to follow. To cleanse the palate, a mint tea infused with palo santo was served—a meditative interlude that was both refreshing and aromatic, setting the stage for the evening’s journey. The first official course, Crème Caviar, featured Russian Sturgeon Heritage Caviar and chive, a chilled preparation that was rich yet elegantly restrained. This was followed by Kanpachi Crudo, presented with carrot, ginger, and macédoine vegetables, offering a balance of clean ocean flavors against bright, vegetal undertones. Then came what I consider the star of the evening: a dish that fully captured the ethos of Heritage—Hen of the Woods Mushroom, topped in a “sunchoke stew” (crispy fried sunchoke) with fermented mushroom. For an additional $25, an indulgent shaving of black truffle took the dish to another level, transforming it into a sensory experience that evoked the deep, earthy satisfaction of foraging. The interplay of umami-rich elements made this course a masterpiece of textural and flavor contrast. The proteins that followed were executed with equal care.

Love and Salt

Manhattan Beach

About the restaurant

Love and Salt is a story that begins with Cafe Pierre, a restaurant birthed by Guy Gabriele in 1977 to bring a taste of France to Los Angeles’ South Bay. While Cafe Pierre was a beloved part of the community for nearly 37 years, in 2014, Guy and his daughter Sylvie Gabriele, now the owner of Love and Salt, closed the restaurant to bring new life to the iconic space.

Love and Salt is a philosophy: that food needs only two ingredients to be great. It’s a sensibility that informs the feeling in the restaurant and the dishes on the menu — Italian-inspired with Southern California soul. An approachable wine list and classic cocktail program similarly reflect the vibrant SoCal setting of the restaurant, located just steps from the Manhattan Beach pier.

About the restaurant

Behind an unmarked door adjacent to the wine room, guests are transported to District 1 (China Town) in Saigon via Blackhouse’s 28-seat restaurant-within-a-restaurant, LSXO. A spinoff of the Little Sister brand (Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach & Downtown Los Angeles), LSXO is love letter to the culture, heritage, and lineage of Vietnam (Vuong’s relatives hail from the region). While Little Sister is known for its French Vietnamese menu, LSXO follows the same Southeast Asian inspiration with a more refined feel.

“There is no signage for LSXO—you can spot the entrance of it tucked into a section inside Bluegold, but you’ll have to know it’s there. While Bluegold is light, bright, and airy, LSXO is its darker, edgier little sister,” says Vuong. “Both restaurants operate out of the same kitchen, though the menus are completely different. LSXO offers straight-up, honest, home-style Vietnamese cuisine—the type of food I grew up eating with my grandparents in the San Gabriel Valley

We expected a long wait, since it was Valentine’s Day and very crowded, but we were pleasantly surprised that we didn’t have to wait too long to be seated. The food was great (we shared a meal for two) and the service was outstanding. We didn’t catch the name of our server (the receipt says Sabrina) but she made this a fantastic dining experience. Super friendly and helpful. We are going to be repeat customers, for sure.—Dave C
