It's an amazing place, I've never had a single dish that I haven't thought "that's one of the best" one of those I've ever eaten. Even the flipping bread basket (charred bread, lightly pickled cucumbers, tomatoes) is banging. Improve your life, go here often. read more

Food is delicious but very frustrating that its only cash .. accumulated a large bill and had to go across the street for an ATM

It was a little hard to get a reservation. I suggest calling early, restaurant only seats 20-30 people. Still a very cute and cozy restaurant. Aside from the person who took my reservation, service was great! My husband and I went to celebrate my birthday, ordered 3 small plates, 1 entree, 2 desserts and some wine Ricotta dumplings- super soft and fluffy, must try! Monkfish- very small portion, buttery and fresh! But super salty! Octopus- MUST ORDER- it was so good, I can't even describe it! Lamb entree - surprisingly good, did not leave with lamb breath. Do not skip on the dessert! The chocolate fudge with coffee was heavenly! We were told the menu changes often, will be back to try other items read more

5 stars! I want a do over. Star plate of the night for me. Octopus! This was my time having it and before I left I said to Alexis the owner/chef that he is the man! Mmm mmm mmm. The butter in the beginning with the bread is soft and seasoned and yummy. Duck was outstanding! I want that right on top of the delicious salad we had (sorry i inhaled that before snapping a pic. The bread crumbs on the mussels phenomenal and big. I love this place and I'm really looking forward to going back and trying new things. read more

You really will not be disappointed with anything you order here! Chef Alexus gracefully whips up decadent, beautiful dishes right in front of you in this truly open, rustic kitchen. We sat at the bar, it was a great experience. Very small...only accommodates about 20 at a time, this place is about quality not quantity. Putting this one on my regular rotation! read more

Delicious... probably the best food you'll every eat! I absolutely love this restaurant! It felt more like we were in Alexis' home... he puts so much care and attention into every detail. I went there for the first time a couple of days ago and I can't seem to get the flavor of his cooking out of my thoughts. The menu is unique and each ingredient in his creations complement one another... on such a complex level. Alexis is like an artistic chef painting the most incredible masterpiece! I'm extremely grateful that I experienced eating at Lost and Found! thank you, Alexis! read more

If could give this place 10 stars I would! Not only is the food incredible, the service and experience is Michelin worthy and they deserve a review. I put this on my Mount Rushmore of Long Island restaurants. read more

Made a reservation weeks ahead of time for my birthday... Show up and they're closed... They couldn't reach out to the people who had reservations and let them know they're closing? the hours of business are wrong on both Google and yelp. The owners time must be way to valuable for any type of customer service... read more

Lost And Found - New American Near Me - Long Beach, New York

Beyond amazing food and such a chill relaxed atmosphere. A little gem lost in secret!

I can't even begin to describe the experience I had with my first trip to lost & found last night... A small unassuming and inviting atmosphere forged the fact that this was a CHEF DRIVEN Restaurant. It is all about the food and that's no surprise, now let's talk about the food.... Unbelievable!!! Everything has this delicate touch of acidity, well balaced with different textures and seasoned perfectly. Eating out often, you can always find good food; but this Chef is an artist. For the low reviews specifically targeting the 45$ chicken.. it's organic, antibiotic free, and air chilled. Yes you can buy inexpensive chicken, but this Chef wants you to eat his best food, with the best ingredients. If you are confusing this with cheap supermarket chicken you are missing the point of lost & found anyway. Will be returning soon, and sending many more food lovers like myself. read more

My favorite restaurant. Alexis and Danny make me vegan food so I can enjoy this awesome place!

Hole in the wall tapas and small plate venue. Very very small! Highly recommend reservations! Great food and atmosphere! Try the pork belly and for dessert try the bacon s'mores! Bam! Yum O! PS BYO and NO CORKAGE fee! Bam! That's what I am talking about! read more

Lost And Found - Bacon s'mores, deliciouso! - New American Near Me - Long Beach, New York

One of the great restaurants in Long Beach to have a fish dinner. A lot less pompous than it sister restaurant.

Wow, delicious, fantastic, amazing service.... kudos to everyone at lost and found. Thank you read more

Adorable bistro with tapas style cuisine. We ate everything from sea bass to lamb sausage to cod fritters. Portions are decent and worth every morsel. Beech Street area of Long Beach which can get crowded and tough to navigate parking but the food and ambiance are worth it. Excellent service with casual feel. read more

Ordered 6 tapas: tuna Niçoise salad, seared scallops, shrimp in garlic sauce, duck confit, hanger steak and cod croquettes and all were amazing! We ate every drop even the bread and feta dip was amazing. Excellent food, ambiance and service. read more

Amazing restaurant. Fabulous food.My new favorite restaurant! The schnitzel was divine.The burger and fries were like eating a gourmet meal.We even tried the rabbit and were completely awestruck at how delicious everything was.Can't wait to come back!!! read more

Good food, but highly prices and very highly priced drinks. The real problem here is the awful seats, and stools. Yuck.. Don't let the waitstaff rush you as they always seem to do. read more

This place is unbelievable. Food is impeccable. My only complaint is how difficult it is to book a table.

Trendy small kitchen kind of place with mildly pretentious staff but in a friendly sort of way. The food is good and looks like a limited rotating menu which could keep things interesting if you are a frequent visitor. Nice wine selection with staff recommended nightly specials it seemed like. When you are seated they serve a bean mix side dish along with fresh bread and pickled(??) cucumbers which was nice. The main dishes were a little small like tapas style which makes it fun. One major flaw which will keep me from going back is the restaurant is cash only. I often take clients to dinner so not being able to use a corporate card is a major disappointment. Prices are high enough to rack up a decent size bill with a small group of people so not being able to use a credit card or any type of millennial pay method kicks this down a star for me. read more

I wanted to give this two stars because everyone else likes it but...pretty bad. The place was FREEZING, the portions were tiny (but the prices were not) and everything tasted like too much salt. 5 oz of pork for $25? Six "zucchini fries" for $10? It was literally not even one zucchini. When we received the check (still hungry but we didn't want to be totally broke on dwarf-size portions) they told us it was cash only. not cool. Service was poor and food was salty and overpriced. Yikes read more

Amazing fresh food, straight from the farmers market. Absolutely loved it! The staff are super genuine and friendly

This restaurant was superb both in atmosphere and food. While I was skeptical at first because of their so called daily menu, all of the options were very good. I would highly recommend the steak tar tar and the lamb burger. read more

No stars for this place. The waitress cursed at my daughter and her boyfriend when they decided not to eat there tonight. They ordered drinks paid for it. They kindly told the waitress with blond and ginger hair they had to leave, gave her their credit to pay for their drinks. They had to return back to the restaurant a few minutes later because they forgot their credit card and the nasty waitress actually said FU*K YOU at them. They have every right to change their minds about having dinner there. They paid for their drinks. The restaurant was not packed as if they were taking a table from another customer. This is unacceptably behavior. You only get one star because it's the minimum required to post this review. You should be ashamed of yourself!!! read more

Used Yelp to find out where to go in Long Beach. Soooo glad we did. Wifee and I had 4 of the Tapas (all very nice sized) shared a bottle of wine and the bill was just over $100! Pretty amazing. The best dish we had is the roasted eggplant pictured here. It was truly a dish that had us salivating. The skin was like candy. The fresh parm cheese on top w Chef Alexis ' olive oil and amazing bread crumbs .... can't wait to go back. We had a nightcap at their cocktail bar Lost at Sea as well. Great cocktail list w very unique ingredients. Great night in LB read more

Lost And Found - New American Near Me - Long Beach, New York

Can't say how the food is because every time I try to get in, they have no room and the wait is over an hour. No restaurant is worth an hours wait esp when there's plenty of great places to go just in Long Beach. But there's never a free table so I guess the food is good? Good luck read more

Don't get me wrong what we did eat was tasty however we came out hungry. The staff wasn't all that friendly and seemed a little angry. Not paying 75 dollars for a ribeye and 45 for roasted chicken when I can buy 9 of them at BJs for that amount and feed a small village. The best thing about it was the butter. Eat lots of bread and butter. PS cash only and we had no idea. read more

This is an amazing local culinary experience. Make your reservation, it's well worth the wait! You can't go wrong. Alexis is a great host too, get yourself a reservation at the chefs table for the full frontal experience! I think the pictures speak for themselves. read more

I took a girl here for our second date; she was vegan. The owner/chef was an absolute boss, educating us on what he has fresh and what he recommends. After a kale salad, my lamb burger came out and.....with one bite....my date was vegan no more. 10/10 will be back. read more

Small intimate setting, perfect for a date night. Never disappoints, always fresh, and pushes you out of your comfort zone to try new food. Cash only!! read more

This review is about the hospitality of this place and not the actual food, I have heard great things about the food that's why i gave it a 2 instead of a 1. We walked in one day, the place was absolutely empty. We asked for a table for 4 and the proceeded to put us at the front high stool "table" or whatever you want to call it. However, I informed them that my mother is disabled and literally cant step up onto the stool (she walked in with a cane and barely able to walk so it was clear). We asked that they put us at a regular table and they said sorry we must hold those for reservations only. Look i understand a place wants to hold tables for reservations but honestly they could of put the 4 people who came for the table up at the high table. It was completely obvious that she was disabled and they just didn't want to accommodate a disabled old woman. Food is probably great as I have heard but I wont be returning. read more

This is one of those reviews I dread writing, mainly because there is already difficulty getting reservations, but when a restaurant is this good, it deserves all the praise it can get. Lost and Found is a serious "find." I had the opportunity to meet Alexis the chef when we went there late on a Saturday night for dinner, and he could not have been a nicer guy. He, and his staff genuinely care about the food and the experience. They were attentive, made great suggestions and made for a fun night. We had the gazpacho, the tuna poke, the octopus (probably the best octopus I have ever had), the lamb chops, the beet salad (also great), and the lemon chiffon pie for dessert. There was not a weak dish in the bunch, everything was perfectly executed and the flavors were explosive. The decor is very "Williamsburg-esque" with a simple design, very clean, yet cool. It's not a large restaurant, which is probably why it is so packed. As far as restaurants go in Long Beach, it is by far the best one I have ever eaten at, and I expect to be a regular there. FYI- It is BYO. read more

Lost And Found - Beets! Really really good! - New American Near Me - Long Beach, New York

Food was really nice. Sat at the bar area. Service was great too. But can we address the elephant in the room? Are there hood vents to filter out the smoke? Every time I eat there I walk out smelling like I've been in a fire. Open a door - a window - gimme some air pls, we're choking in there. read more

Lost & Found, as reviewed by a 'basic betch' from the suburbs of Long Island... Debbie and I arrived and were like, 'Oh Em Gee' this place is so smahll. I hate it when restaurants crahm you next to strahngers. Good thing it's Bee Why Oh Bae, we brought a 1.5 liter bottle of White Girl Rosay. We ordered the Seared Scallops (sauce gribiche, fennel powder) and the green stuff was dahlicious. It tasted just like fresh bahsil. The pohtahtoes (truffle, grana) were super crispy and like to die fur. The pork belly (cider glazed, celery root remoulade, pumpkin seed oil) is like the best thing ever, but its like so bahd for you. I already reserved my bike at Soul Cycle tomorrow, I'm gonna need to burn off this faht and cahlories. Mallory is teaching the clahss, I love her playlist. The hanger steak (balsamic onions) was like so tender you could cut it with a furk, and it was like totally covered in yummy onions. We also had the charred broccoli (ginger dressing, shiro miso, garlic crumble) and Debbie was like, 'Oh Em Gee who know Brockalay could taste so gahd'. We saved room for dessert, Obvi. The s'mores were amazing. When the waitress asked if we were finished, Debbie was like "I'd like S'MORE please!". I was like, 'EL Oh EL' Debbie is like so crahzy sometimes. We are totahlly coming back to Lost & Found, it's like, the place to bae... read more

Ok, I'm confused! 99.9% of reviews about this place rave about its food. Maybe I was just there on the wrong night. I had the Venison tartare which was amazing and then it was all downhill! Scallops, steak, fish, mushrooms, broccoli we kept trying more dishes hoping to get back to how much we enjoyed the first but all sooooo salty. And it was not only my opinion but even my guest agreed. Though you could tell that all were cooked to perfection but Way too much salt! It was so over powering that's all you tasted it was so disappointing. And I know my food, I'm not confusing salt with other spices! It was too much salt! May give it one more try since all say it's amazing! But so far extremely disappointed! read more

Just started using Yelp and i remembered hiw awesome this place was and wanted to write a quick review about it. Delicious food with excellent ambiance. But take into considerstion it is a smaller place. read more

The food is out of this world. Unfortunately the service simply isn't there to back it up. Save for Alexis, all of the staff have a hipster-passive aggressive, pissy, can't be bothered attitude. We've eaten there multiple times and experienced it each and every time. It's a shame because as I mentioned earlier the food is incredible. Not sure if we'll be back. We work too long and hard for our money to be treated like an afterthought. Dirty dishes are always piled up because the servers seldom come around to check if everything is ok. Just disappointing to think about because there's so much potential. read more

What a hidden gem of a restaurant in Long Beach. Last night my date and I came here on a Wednesday around 8 pm. Luckily, we were able to just waltz in without a reservation to a table.. although we must have just missed the rush. By about 8:30 there was a line forming at the door, so I would recommend making a reservation - just in case. Very intimate, small restaurant. Dim chandelier lighting with candlelit tables, beautiful artwork on the walls. Worn, hardwood furniture and floors... and my favorite: mounted bullhorns over the kitchen area where you could view the Chef and sous Chef preparing the meals. Plates are generally to share, even though portions are very modest. For both of us, four plates to share were the perfect amount. They brought us slightly toasted bread with warmed (!) butter, seasoned with sea salt and an herb I tried so hard to pinpoint, maybe parsley? We asked for more bread, just to be sure. We ordered the Wedge salad to start, Brussels Sprouts, Pork Belly and then the Sea Bass. The Wedge salad had thick diced bacon, cut red grapes, finely crushed nuts and a buttermilk dressing. Unreal. The flavors all worked so well together. Two of these could have been my meal and I would have left one happy Jess. Next they brought us the Pork Belly plate. Come on. Seared beautifully with a great crust that alone was well seasoned, but paired with the harissa dressing on the side and a garlicky parsley-herb salad.. It just sang. The Sea Bass was served next. Grilled and flaky, with pickled leeks on top, laid over a bed of baked thick cut carrots and a creamy sauce. This is the sauce we requested more bread for and did not regret a damn thing about it. They brought out the Brussels Sprouts last which we thought was an odd time to bring them out. The Brussels Sprouts were the size of a baby's fist. Huge. This was my date's least favorite dish, which was slightly understandable because of the balancing act of savory and sweet flavors. However, I really did enjoy how they were baked to a char, it added a nice depth of flavor. A tasting menu in Long Beach, charmed indeed. read more

Dumb, crazy, stupid, good food that will make you wanna smack your Momma while you're dancing the Bachata... Unbelievably surprising quality of food for the Long Island scene. I have to rate this my all time favorite restaurant outside of the five Burroughs and inside of America. I don't know if I hit a perfect night when the Chef, staff, and stars were all aligned or its like this every night but I'm definitely going back to find out. Atmosphere is amazing due to the open kitchen which is constantly moving like a fine piece of machinery thats perfectly greased and in tune. Food was to die for and definitely served, presented and prepared with almost an infatuation for the satisfaction of the consumer. Service was impressive and down right skillful with such a small amount of table top they made a six course meal flow like I was sitting at a banquet table with room to spare. Not to mention my glass of water never hit bottom once. All in all the Lost and Found shall never be Lost in my memory banks and I'm more than glad that I Found it. read more

This place is a found treasure. The food is super tasty and the restaurant has so much character. Don't leave without getting the pork belly and fig salad. One piece of feedback, the hostess could of been friendlier. We felt like she was trying to discourage us by inflating the expected wait time, BYOB, and cash only rule. I'm glad we didn't let her stop us. I also heard her doing this to others which is a shame. I'm sure the owner is looking to be a neighborhood staple not scare people off. read more
