• Heritage★ Michelin Set in a converted Craftsman in the historic Rose Park neighborhood, this inviting locale is removed from the hustle and bustle of Long Beach. Brother-and-sister duo Philip and Lauren Pretty run the kitchen and front of house, respectively, curating an experience that’s relaxed, but gets the details just right. On offer is a single multicourse tasting (priced quite reasonably) that highlights top-notch ingredients, including produce sourced from their nearby farm. The cooking has a California accent, and seasonal fruit may form a common thread, as in preserved kumquats paired with roasted beet8.1km
• Koi Japanese Cuisine Helmed by chefs have a century of experience under their collective belts, Koi Japanese Cuisine may have a familiar name, but this spot stands firmly on its own. It's not hip or trendy, but it is beloved by regulars who are known by their first names and have a clear rapport with the chefs. Though it has history and heart, these regulars are here for more than just a warm welcome. From orange clam and kampachi to Kumamoto and Kusshi oysters, the sashimi lineup is impressive. A tempura of zucchini flowers stuffed with scallops serves as a culinary intermission between the sashimi and nigiri, wh2.6km
• Ramen & Tsukemen TAOBib Ramen & Tsukemen TAO is tucked away in an easy-to-miss corner of an open-air mall, but the humble setting quickly fades once the steaming bowls arrive. The compact dining room is strictly no frills, though the focus here is squarely on deeply comforting ramen crafted with passion and dedication. A concise menu keeps attention on the essentials, from rich and creamy spicy red miso ramen to a lighter but equally satisfying chicken ramen built on a classic, Tokyo-style broth.

• The Attic Owner Steve Massis and Chef Cameron Slaugh are responsible for this Craftsman-style "house" in bustling Long Beach.

Fried chicken and biscuits are at the heart of the carte, along with gumbo a6.5km
• Chiang Rai Chiang Rai is exactly why you don’t judge a book by its cover. It would be easy to walk past the modest exterior, but inside is a colorful, quirky dining room serving one of the more expansive Northern Thai menus in town. While the offerings range from familiar curries and noodle dishes to street-food staples, the Chiang Rai Local Food section remains the place to focus. The kitchen is happy to adjust spice levels for those seeking more heat, while dishes like sai uao, a fragrant Northern Thai pork sausage, or khao soi with thin slices of raw ribeye gently cooked tableside in curry broth showc6.8km
