Gino's Restaurant & Pizzeria has got to be one of our favorite pizzerias in Long Beach, maybe our sole favorite actually, because they have just the best pizza around! We love those tiny pepperoni slices that are cooked so perfectly on top of just the right amount of mozzarella cheese, and the tomato slices are just perfect too. They've got every kind of Italian food you could ever want here beyond just that famous pizza, and even ice cream for dessert. On a hot day in the summer time, you can't go wrong pairing an ice cold beer with your pizza! Too good. It's true that this is one of the most hyped places in Long Beach, and it is a little higher priced than we'd like, but the hype is true and everything really is that good. Don't miss it!

Yummy Yummy Restaurant is the essential sushi restaurant in Long Beach! They've been here for at least ten years that we're aware of, perhaps longer, and they have been consistent the entire time. The edamame is a very nice appetizer, and all of the rolls are excellent here. We love the all you can eat sushi because that is just too hard to find nowadays. They don't seem to advertise it anymore but you can still get the all you can eat option if you ask for it. This restaurant is family friendly and great for the kids. Very comfortable, nicely lit, and nice decor too. We love coming in with the family or with our good friends to catch up over some green tea while we enjoy our sushi! Always a good time.

Five Guys Famous Burgers and Fries has been a favorite among our friends for quite some time now, and there's a reason that their locations are spreading out all over the United States! Their juicy burgers are just too good to believe, and you can pile on as many topping as you like at no additional charge. Everybody loves the free peanuts here too. For those with peanut allergies, note that the fries are also cooked in peanut oil. Even if you're not that big on burgers, they have incredible cheese dogs. Imagine a hearty hot dog with a ton of melty cheese just dripping off of it... yeah. It's that good. You will definitely want to check this place out next time you are in the Long Beach area if you haven't already!

Nagahama Japanese Restaurant is a cut above the rest when it comes to sushi. This is the more upscale option among the sushi offerings in Long Beach, with truly skilled sushi chefs who really know how to craft a masterpiece out of fresh fish, sticky rice, and toasted seaweed. The crunchy spicy tuna roll is one of our favorites here, and we also love the dragon roll and the chili roll. The fish is superbly fresh here, so if you really enjoy sashimi, you can rest assured that this is a great place to get it. This place comes close to, or even surpasses, some of those oft-recommended sushi restaurants in NYC. Give it a try and find out for yourself just how good it is!

Minnesota's Grill & Bar is one of the best places to go for drinks in the area, and you'll want to note that Friday is ladies night, when you can get some serious specials even on your favorite top shelf liquors. Very highly recommended. Tokyo Tuesday is another one of our favorite nights to come in for all that delicious sushi! It's true that the prices can be a bit high here, so if you're watching your funds you may want to look elsewhere, but if you've got the money to blow on a reasonable cover charge and somewhat overpriced beers, you'll really love the ambiance and the service can't be beat. You do get a lot for your money here. Very highly recommended for a great time any night of the week!

Sutton Place is a wonderful restaurant and bar where you can relax and enjoy your favorite burgers and steaks in style. We love to come in and watch the games, and they also have live music here, so that will keep you plenty entertained! It seems like they're always busy on the weekends which is a sign of a great place. We love the fact that it's located in the old Long Beach Library building, and there are hints of that throughout. Budding architectural historians will want to check out those little details as they're throwing back beers. Very cool. Outdoor dining is nice in the warmer months of the  year too. Lots of great beers on tap, and really great service here. Don't miss it when you're in the area!

Swingbellys BBQ... we love that old building that looks like someone's house, and if you love barbecue as much as we do, you really owe it to yourself to check this place out. They have some of the very best barbecue ever, including wonderfully delicious wings that you can really scarf down on all you can eat wing night! Score! The drink specials will help you to save a few bucks too, and be sure to check out their beer and bourbon nights. Their macaroni and cheese is also a real treat, and we love their sweet potato fries too. Great food, great drinks, great service. Don't miss the loaded fries, they're piled high with bacon, cheese, and sour cream! Too good. We just can't say enough about how great this place is.

The Beach House is all about great burgers as far as we're concerned, but there's much more here than just that to hold your attention. They've got delicious beer on draft, a very nice outdoor seating area to enjoy when the weather is warm, and live music to keep you dancing too. The sports bar atmosphere feels authentic and fun rather than forced, and we love the fact that it's still family friendly with a nice kids menu as well. The restaurant is owned by a firefighter, so you know the food is great. We love coming in for football on Sundays, and happy hour is always a good time here too. Fun for dates or get togethers with your good friends. All you can eat wings on Monday nights too! Don't miss it!

Sugo Cafe gets rave reviews, and there's no question why. Just take a look at that incredible menu and you'll get a hint of the kind of experience you'll have here... Meatballs and linguine packs tons of flavor into an old fashioned comfort food style dish... Baked salmon and braised meat keeps it simple and light... and the stuffed cabbage appetizer is always a great start to any meal. If you're looking for something a little more modern and trendy, opt for that calimari appetizer or the goat cheese pizza. They've got t he best of both worlds here, both old school and new. Everything falls under the category of comfort food, and it's all just so fantastic. A real gem in Long Beach. Very highly recommended.

Lido Kosher Deli cannot be beat for lovers of pastrami and cornbeef sandwiches! This is one of the lesser known gems in Long Beach, kind of falling by the wayside thanks to the slick marketing of the other more exciting restaurants... but if a huge overstuffed sandwich is your bag, then you will not want to overlook this one! They've got the all beef hebrew nationals hot dogs here too, which are just fatnastic! Everything that they offer here is old fashioned, just the way you liked it when you were a kid (or maybe when your parents were kids!). Check out the cole slaw and the potato salad too, they are essentials. Many say this is their favorite deli in all of New York, so listen up and try it for yourself.
