    Happy Hour

    It's a bit pricey for what it is. I paid $23 for a strawberry and spinach salad with salmon, but the salmon portion wasn't very substantial. That same weekend, I tried salads from Blue Salt Fish Grill for the first time, and the other salad was definitely superior. I'm not really understanding the appeal. It's giving me Medicino Farms, Sweet Greens, Urban Plate vibes, but it's not that memorable.

    FOOD: I had the Bushfire burger and my friend had the Gaucho steak sandwich. We got a side of brussels sprouts. They were perfectly roasted with a tasty balsamic vinaigrette. The sandwiches were good as well and I like the fact that they are not gigantic. I had a glass of their Bushfire IPA and it was very good. SERVICE: Jill took our order at the counter and brought the food to our table as well. She was pleasant and professional.Esmeralda, the manager was also very nice. AMBIENCE: clean spacious restaurant. There's patio dining as well.

    Stopped by Bushfire Kitchen after using the car wash in the next plaza over. Purchased their gaucho steak sandwich ($15), fries ($5), beef empanada ($5), and soda ($4). The beef empanada had a nice crispy crust, but, per my preferences, it was very lightly seasoned and it was served with their "house made chimichurri", which was more an herby aioli. The fries were my favorite item in the meal as they were crispy and perfectly seasoned. The steak sandwich was served on nice ciabatta bread with tons of their "chimichurri"; however, the tri tip was too tough, lightly marbled, and too lightly seasoned. There was a thin slice of tomato and a very small amount of grilled onion. Overall, I came for the steak sandwich, but I wanted more balance to the lean tritip with more acidity (which one would normally get with a properly acidic chimichurri) and fresh vegetables (onion/tomato/peppers), which would have made a huge difference. If their entrees came with a small side, then I would have maybe perceived better value.

    Thai chicken curry bowl with butternut squash and mashed potatoes

    I attended a holiday party here and had a great time. The restaurant has an outdoor patio which you can reserve and was a great location for our party. Everyone was able to order independently, so there was no need for splitting checks after, and they let us bring in our own desserts. The staff were outstanding - incredibly welcoming of our group, helpful when ordering, and came through regularly to check on us, take orders for more drinks, and ensure everyone was happy. I ordered the chicken curry bowl with mashed potatoes and butternut squash. It was good (and enough to take leftovers home) but could have used more veggies. I'm not sure if you can add multiple toppings, but I think with the mixed veggies as well as squash this would have been great. They have beer, wine, soft drinks, and freshly brewed iced tea.

    You order at the counter and they bring you your food. It came right away. My bowl had bite size pieces of tri tip, rice, and vegetables. It was very tasty. My friend enjoyed a beef sandwich.

    Came for lunch on a Friday at 2pm. Not very busy. Food came out quickly. Service was great. Had no issues. Thai bowl was good. Chimichurri tri tip was also good but could have used more flavor for the meat itself. Had no issues and everything seemed fresh. Would recommend for a healthier meal.

    My first time here and it was very good. Great options for anyone looking to eat healthier with lots of flavor! If you have dietary restrictions there are many options as well. Lulu our server was so sweet. We ordered our food at the counter, they gave us a number then brought us our food when it was ready. We sat outside on the patio since it was a warm day. I had a bowl with brown rice, fresh kale, grilled chicken, beets, roasted broccoli with lemon tahini dressing. It was delicious and very filling. The kiddos got chicken strips & fries. My friend got a greek salad with grilled chicken and her hubby got the Peri Peri Chicken Plate. We were all very happy with our food. There is plenty of seating inside and outside on the patio (which is covered to keep the sun off your head). It's very clean inside as well. *Parking in the lot is plentiful ~ and that's all I have to say about that ~

    My wife and I were out doing errands and had wanted to give Bushfire a try. Overall, we were both very satisfied with our burgers. She got a veggie burger, and I had their El Fuego burger. Cooked medium perfectly, mine also had peppers and a pepper aioli that gave it a little kick. We were both scouting it out too as a potential after work spot for her book club or for happy hour with coworkers. The menu and drinks are perfectly fine, but the indoor seating makes it tough for parties of 6-8 people. There's an outdoor patio which would be better when it's warmer.

    Turkey Pesto Sandwich
    Micole H.

    This place was great. None of us are familiar with Long Beach area but were going to the playhouse for the first time. I found this place and it was not a disappointment. It was perfect for a before show meal. I got turkey pesto sandwich. I told the people I was with it tasty "healthy" lol but not in a bad way my fat self is just used to cheese and all that other stuff but it was still a good sandwich. My partner got American Burger which enjoyed very much. I tasted a piece and said mmm smoky. Oh how could I forget the delicious beef empanada. I ate it before I even took a picture! It was so good and that chimichurri sauce was so unique. I have never had a thick and creamy chimichurri and it was delicious. His bff got a fish plate which was enjoyed. Finally we each got lemonade. That homemade lavendar hisbiscus *chefs kiss* The customer service was top notch. Wish I would have gotten his name but he was awesome. He asked when we wanted our cookies and said he would bring them. When he did bring them they were warm and so so good. Soft and gooey with slightly crisper edges just delicious. Whenever we end up in LB again I would definitely return.

    Counter service only

    Disappointed. Expected better from pics and high rating but poor execution on reheated food will mark this my first and last visit to any of their locations. Overcooked chicken is a no-no anywhere. But a place that came up on my search as a gastropub? Yikes! Even worse, it wasn't even fresh! If they had overcooked my chicken fresh, it would've been hot. But this was pre-overcooked then heated up to lukewarm before being given to me. I believe that is the case because the alternative is worse. Sad. Quick aside: maybe they cooked my chicken fresh and over cooked it then still served it to me lukewarm. It's possible. That would be just as disturbing, I just went with my gut reaction above. Bbq sauce was cheap but tangy - maybe to cover up inability to properly cook chicken? By "cheap", you can taste the quality of the ingredients easily and tell it's just so-so sauce but it helped me get through the chewy chicken so I'll give it a pass The squash was good - nice temp, softness and flavor. Mixed veggies looked like they came out of a bag and were not hot plus had inconsistent crunchiness to individual veggies that made me wonder what that mess was so I left it alone after a quick bite. The bread was fine but definitely unremarkable. And then the bar fly that wouldn't leave me alone - I'm at a table far from the bar where you see these critters most often (hence the name) so seeing one at my table makes me believe they don't clean well. Sad there was only counter service - I felt the website led me to believe there was bar seating but whatever. The tables were fine, bar fly not fine, numbered signs should be replaced - they are worn out and made improperly to hold up to regular use. My server, Michael, was a delight - he didn't know much about the beer but he was polite, seemed to genuinely care, and very friendly. If you do visit, I hope you get to experience him and his easy smile - he was the best part of my visit! I won't be back but at least I tried :)

    Bushfire has been on our favorites list for quite some time now. We love the freshness and quality combined with their friendly staff. There will be more visits to explore the menu and the decked out patio.

    We have been wanting to try this place and finally made it here! We dinner here and took two other dishes to go: empanadas and chicken quesadilla. My husband said they were both amazing!!! We will come back to try other items in the menu!

I don't recommend the smash style burger because it's smaller and doesn't come with the fixings, but if that's your thing than by all means enjoy. I got the backyard bbq burger and it was very tasty. Not the best I've ever had but it definitely hits the spot and prices are not bad at all here. If I happen to be in the area again I would definitely be down to phone in my order and pickup for takeout to enjoy the tastiness somewhere I feel a little more comfortable. Staff was also very friendly - when they could be seen at least, but it was one cashier/server with two guys in the kitchen and although it's a small hole in the wall place there is still plenty to do if you're understaffed so I'm not even mad about it.

Read the room burning the edges of the burger surely alters the taste of what might have been a great burger story. We were very disappointed to say that the fries trumped the overcooked cheeseburger. I thought for the price of the double cheeseburger that there would be a valiant effort to please the clients tastebuds but that never quite materialized.. The presentation is the trick because the service and the food fell short of lackluster. And before you serve anything Take pride in your own QUALITY CONTROL Look at the burger Then ask yourself would you eat it and if it doesn't passed that litmus test THROW IT. OUT AND START OVER !!!!! It's as simple as that . Have some self awareness.

TLDR; It's expensive, and not worth the routine visit, but worth the one-time stop in to experience the festivities. The Miracle pop-up at The Ordinarie is somehow even more decorated and extravagant than you'd expect from a seasonal pop-up. The line looks long outside, as there are no reservations, but it moves quickly since they hold everybody to a pretty strict 2-hour time limit. The drinks are good, the cups are cute, and everyone is festive. It's an all-around fun experience.  I think because of this, you do pay a premium price tag for food and drinks that are just good or okay. I think it's something that is worth the visit if you've never been and you enjoy getting into the Christmas spirit. I think that outside of the pop-up, The Ordinarie is a fun spot to check out in Long Beach. It't not a pillar of the food scene if you're a tourist, but it is a good, late night spot if you work in the industry nearby. They have a great late-night menu with a killer smash burger.
