What a amazing dinner! I have heard lots of great comments about Patty's Place and finally planned ahead to book a reservation for our Anniversary. Smaller restaurant and they book up quickly! The bar area was packed when left, Sunday around 630pm. Service was excellent. Our server was Rosemary and she was the best. Attentive and checked us often. Very friendly and knowledgeable. The owner Nick, also stopped by to oversee the service and chat. Very friendly ans nice to meet the owner. That's an owner that truly cares about his business! The menu has a lot to offer. Great steaks, prime rib, and a lot of seafood options! In addition, the iffer daily specials. Honestly, it was tough to decide. We all chose seafood! Next visit definitely plan to try their Prime Rib or Filet! They have great soup and salad options as well! Next visit I want to try their French Onion Soup! Always looking for a great one! Interior has nice cozy booths. Parking was easy with a share lot. Cocktails were great! Martinis made right! I enjoyed my glass of Malbec. I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised! Bread was warm and excellent! First impressions with bread is important and they measured up! We ordered the Beet Salad and the Asian Pear Salad. Both came with fresh Burrata and so good! For entrees we ordered Sear Ahi, Salmon, and Seated Scallops. My husband waa so impressed with his salmon, his quote, the best he has ever had! I had the seated scallops. The menu stated they were East Coast, where I grew up, and why I orderd them. I can't tell you exactly the differencebl but I prefer them back there vs West Coast, seem more meaty to me. They were preoared perfectly, definitely enjoyed the dush along with the side cous cous (pearl type) and lots of colorful al dente veggies! Our son ordered the appetizer size of the Seared Ahi. Perfect size when paired with a full size salad! It also was an excellent pick! Desserts. This place is known for their inhouse made desserts. If you know me, you know I have a sweet tooth. Nice offering if desserts. Since it wa our anniversary, they comp'd us a dessert of our choice! Very nice! We ordered two, Bread Pudding and Apple Tart. Both were excellent! Very generous portions too! Coffee was very good and paired well with the desserts. Definitely will be coming back! Too many items on the menu we didn't get to try! read more

12/10 experience. I picked this spot for a very special event to meet family members for a dinner. I was floored by how much support I got from every staff member and how they took my request to the next level where it felt like each person was there for me. Walking in I already could feel the local energy and love in the bar and the vibe was warm and cozy. Thank you everyone who helped make the night wonderful! Food here was exceptional with a full bar and would recommend for any kind of intimate evenings or casual hangouts with close friends. Needless to say I'll be coming back for more dinners and can't recommend that you check this out whether you're a local or passing by. read more

Someone recommended this quaint restaurant to me because I absolutely love French onion soup. Hidden off PCH and 5th, this restaurant is a hidden gem First impression, more upscale than the other places i go to. Staff super nice, clean and very relaxing. A definite local hangout. I had my go to drink, a Manhattan, oh my this was delicious. I ordered the French onion soup and house salad. The soup was so flavorful, rich broth, big pieces of onion and super cheesy. The salad was nice and crisp with a nice dressing. Please enjoy the pictures Remember to do random acts of kindness as it will make everyone feel wonderful. Happy Yelping and please follow me for more awesome reviews read more

Prime Rib was raw not rare and sent it back. Server had an attitude. Like she was doing us a favor. Not genuine or sincere.

My wife and I have driven past this restaurant so many times but decided to try it on Sunday evening. In fact every time we eat at Koi we tell ourselves we need to try Patty's Place. So! The food was delicious. My French onion soup came with a rich and dark broth along with perfectly melted cheese on top. My wife had the beet salad which was so refreshing and tasty. For our entree we said the 16 oz Snake River prime ribeye steak with hot and crispy fries. No dessert as we were both completely full. The service was perfect. In fact Nick the managing partner came to our table and introduced himself. Kudos to the bartenders who made with 2 perfect Manhattan's. My wife loved her gin gimlet. The dining room is small but the booths are very comfortable. You enter through the bar area and honestly, we wouldn't mind sitting with the regulars. Cheers, we will be back. read more

It's time I stopped gatekeeping this fabulous eatery. Tucked in a quaint strip mall, comes steakhouse that is also small in stature. But despite all things appearing to be diminutive, Patty's Place brings the grandest of all accoutrements that you would expect of a 5-star steakhouse. As you walk through the doors, on any given evening, you might find any of the Seal Beach dignitaries sitting at the copper plated bar. You're greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels both upscale and cozy. And from behind the bar, all of the bartenders are incredibly attentive and friendly, making you feel like a valued guest from start to finish. But the one bartender who makes me feel like one of the SB locals is Jake. Words cannot express how Jake has made me feel welcome every time I pass through the wooden entrance door. From many visits due to work, he knows all my food tastes as well as my choice of liquors. Jake's knowledge of whiskeys, scotch, and bourbons created conversations with him that increased my wisdom of such liquor spirts. You can tell he enjoys his craft and it shows in every drink he makes. The food? Phenomenal. As you can tell from my photograph submissions, I've had almost all the bar menu meals. I had the bone-in ribeye, and it was cooked to perfection--tender, flavorful, and paired with mushrooms and asparagus that were equally divine. The burgers are a blended patty that is cooked to a perfect medium-rare and juicy each time. My favorite dish is the Filet Mignon Stroganoff with fresh pappardelle pasta infused with a rich cream sauce that is heavenly. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, just want a memorable night out, or just want a great cocktail, Patty's Place delivers on all fronts. It's clear why this place has such a stellar reputation. My next visit can't come soon enough. read more

Older clientele seem to come here. Quiet and good for conversation. It's romantically dark for dates. I thought it was frankly overpriced, but the food was good. Not great like the price would suggest, just good. Service was very pro. It's the priciest in Seal Beach. You'll want a reservation. read more

This breakfast hit the spot, Kobe Patty and eggs, Hash-brown and fruit. More than enough to shared. Always great sitting at the bar, but it will filled up quick. Curtis is great, funny and Nick is always there to greet you with open arms . Nothing wrong with Sunday champagne, delicious meal and football. read more

It was the perfect date night! It was my first time there, but my boyfriend had been there multiple times. To start, we split a caesar salad and had the ceviche. Bread was also served. The bread was very warm and was perfect with the butter. The caesar was great, we got it without anchovies. And, the ceviche was amazing with the avocado!! Chips were not stale and the lemon went along with the ceviche. I had the surf and turf with mashed potatoes and asparagus. The steak was tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes were a nice complement. And, the lobster... WOW! Great!!! They de-shelled it for me and it was so decadent with the butter For dessert, we shared a key lime pie. We barely finished it because we were so full from earlier. The waitress was very kind and attentive to our needs. Half-way through, the owner visited our table and checked on the service (great). Overall, we WILL be coming back. read more

If you've never come checked out Patty's place, skip the cheap tacos today and have a filet mignon and glass a wine. Treat yourself, life isn't easy and this first quarter is 20 days in. Waitresses need their tips to survive. read more

We have dined at Patty's place maybe six times now it's a great place to celebrate birthdays . we celebrated my cousin's birthday here and received excellent service from Maria. The crazy thing is that we talk to Maria about life and she provided great service but at USC family weekend I saw her walking up the bleachers to find out that her nephew is one of the star players for USC. Congratulations to Maria and her nephew. We won the game and he rocked it!!! we will be back at Patty's place again the night we were there, The Dodgers won the World Series that was epic as well. Great food too, this place reminds me of Cheers.. read more

Went to Patty's to celebrate my birthday. Met the owner Nick. Great guy and excellent customer service. Going back again soon.

We've just discovered this gem! I wasn't up to going on my birthday so a week later we celebrated. Oh WOW! It was the most amazing evening. Cocktail at the beautiful quaint bar. The bartender is quite knowledgeable. Throughout the entire meal he paired a perfect accompaniment. The crab cakes were chock full of nothing but lump crab. Then my prime rib was perfectly done. Aaaand for my birthday dessert she brought creme brulee. I might say it was the best I've had!!! The service was excellent throughout the entire experience. I highly recommend a visit even if it would be for a glass and appetizer at the bar. Receives the high honors award!! read more

Everything was fabulous, we had the seal beach salad, along side with the French onion soup to get started. The steak was fabulous and the customer service was top! read more

We had an amazing experience at Patty's Place. Small and intimate atmosphere. Professional, friendly and knowledgeable staff. We both started off with a cocktail, beets salad, and the deviled eggs. I ordered a dirty martini with blue cheese olives 10/10. Beet salad was fresh and tasty 10/10. I was a little disappointed with the deviled eggs. I do like mustard. I just felt the deviled eggs were overpowered by mustard. I did like the salmon on top. Overall 7/10 for the deviled eggs. As soon as we told our server we brought our own bottle of wine she offered to decant it for us. She (Gina) was very friendly, professional, and gave us some good feedback with menu options (food & drinks). I ordered the Chilean Sea Bass with garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus. My girlfriend ordered the Filet Mignon and prawns with double loaded baked potato and zucchini. The Chilean Sea Bass, Filet Mignon and Prawns were all cooked perfectly. All packed with flavor and the perfect texture. My only complaint about the sides is the asparagus. The asparagus was very bland. Not seasoned. I gave the asparagus a 4/10. After dinner we decided to stay for one cocktail at the bar. Of course I had to get a second espresso martini and we had the opportunity to chat with the bartender. We didn't catch his name unfortunately, but he was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about what he had behind the bar and he was mindful enough to ask us questions about how we liked our drinks. Highly recommend. read more

Hello Patty'a Place, I was in Friday February 20,2026. I sat at the bar with Kurtis. He was the best bartender ever! I got an espresso martini and it was the best one I've ever had. My friend got a cosmo and she loved it. Our food was coursed out perfectly. I will definitely be coming back in to sit with him. read more

Food, service and the old school ambience are always top-notch. And Nick is always a great host.

This restaurant never disappoints! I have been there a few times and it has become my favorite restaurant in Seal Beach. The service and food is amazing and wine knowledge and selections are great. I usually get the filet but on Friday I got the Sea Bass it was sooo good. Highly recommended Patty's Place! read more

My last review was when Patty was the owner so I wanted to update this review. Still the same and not much has changed only the menu somewhat. We have met the new boss, Nick! He is very nice and likes to pass by your table to say hi on every visit. Still nice and quiet and food that is second to none! Our most recent trip, we were lucky to have our favorite waitress Rosemary! She is so friendly and helpful and always great at suggestions when we ask. A very great special this time was the 16oz Wagyu rib-eye steak. Wow!!! So good I highly recommend. My wife enjoyed the shrimp fettuccine which was great. For dessert was their famous key-lime pie! A must when you go! I usually add a slice of their cheesecake to go for the next morning with my coffee. Outstanding! I also want to mention their wine list here which is very extensive and fabulous. The have some very sophisticated selections and just ask for help if you're not sure. We typically bring our own bottle and are glad to pay the $30 corkage fee. We are always happy how well they take great care to open and pour our wine and offer to decanter if needed. I also will say the bar hasn't missed a beat and still carries a great selection of spirits. My favorite bourbon Knob Creek is always on hand with a generous pour. If you want a great meal I still highly recommend Patty's Place with my highest rating of 5 stars!! read more
