Tom Kha
Ashley C.

We came here for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon and luckily it wasn't busy. We had called ahead for a table since we had a large party and it was ready and all set for when we arrived. Service was really great, and the food was even better! Right off the bat when the Thai tea came out so nicely decorated with a different flower in each one, I knew they were gonna be really focused on presentation. But luckily that wasn't all that there was to it, the flavors were all there too! From the pineapple fried rice to the tom kha, every single dish we tried was delicious AND beautiful - even the egg roll appetizer! One of my favorites was this appetizer with three different meats and sauces. The meat was all so tender and I could've just eaten that myself as a meal! Such a great first experience here at The Second Owl and will definitely keep it on the list for Long Beach spots.

Food: 5/5, the pork belly is a must!! Very crispy and delicious. The garlic chicken was very tasteful and healthy. I love the pad Thai!!! Service: staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Ambiance: love the Thai decor as well as the open seating outside. They do have happy hour and lunch specials. I haven't tried them but will do!! Will definitely come back here again!!

Papaya salad

This place is on second and Belmont Shores so if you know you know about the parking situation. The only reason why I give is place three stars because our server was super friendly, went above and beyond, always filing very tentative. However, the food here was to be honest very mid and bland. I ordered the papaya salad which came with pork rinds, but there was no flavor in this whatsoever. It was mostly all texture my friend with rice. I think she'd like it, but I wouldn't come back here again.

The Second Owl is drastically different than its predecessor. Located on 2nd St. it caters to a different crowd with a different palette. I had definite favorites when I dinner-ed here - both of which were starters. The sea bass larb ($21) was a refreshing way to start the meal. The Chilean sea bass is served ceviche style with fresh lime juice, fish sauce, cilantro, green + red onions with rice paper crisps. There wasn't anything groundbreaking about this dish, but it was a very solid ceviche. We also tried the kao tuna na tung ($13) which was a first for me. Ground pork, shrimp, and aromatic spices are simmered in coconut milk and paired with shrimp cracker wafers. It's surprisingly light, but flavorful. For proteins, we shared a sausage platter (a little dry), pork belly ($16), and the crying tiger ($28). The one misgiving I have is the fact that all 3 are served with the same sauces which ultimately keep them tasting pretty similar. I think The Second Owl is a great place to take out of town guests or if you're entertaining a nice dinner. The menu offers classic Thai dishes alongside less common offerings which keeps the menu exciting.

Been to this place a few times. Not too busy except peak dining times. Great location, great food. Good menu, really as good as it gets

First time at Second Owl here at Belmont. I've tried Owl Owl in the past in Signal Hill and liked it so was craving for good savory Thai food and decided to stop by Second Owl. I got drunken noodle with crispy pork and sea bass larb take-outs. The drunken noodle was very flavorful, love that wok fire flavor. The crispy pork earned its name and it was crisp to the tip! So crunch, I wish there were more of it. The sea bass larb was full of flavor, fresh, citrusy, paired very well with the shrimp chips. The service was great and it didn't take too long to wait for my food. They also have a restroom for customers only and it's around the corner of the restaurant. Highly recommend!

Mango Sticky Mango Rice

The best food on Second Street! The Second Owl is a must try when in the area. The ambiance makes it perfect for a family dinner, friend catch up, or a weekly date night outing. And the people make you feel like you're a guest in their home. Second Owl's menu has plenty of options and each one is worth trying! The food is aromatic, beautifully presented, and, most of all, tastes incredible. I appreciate that some of the menu options are seasonal as well so I feel like there's always something new to try even when I order my staple faves. This level of food and comfort is only possible at Second Owl. Must try's: Mango Sticky Rice, Pad See Ew, Green Curry, Kao Soi Filet Mignon, Tom Kha, Tom Yum, Owl Fried Rice, Kao Soi Duck. I am attempting to try everything on this menu!

Thai tea
Sonali S.

We had a great experience at The Second Owl! We were seated right away, and our waitress, Shanon, was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our meal. The food was delicious. We especially enjoyed the Pad See Ew and the Thai tea. Everything came out fresh and flavorful. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

Larb Salad and Chicken Satay
Jessica K.

The Second Owl seriously hit the spot. Here's the official breakdown of how I'm ranking the dishes we tried. Marry: The pork larb. No hesitation. This was the star. So fresh with lime and herbs, perfectly balanced heat, and the shrimp chips added that perfect crunch. The night before we watched Matty Matheson's Just a Dash and he made larb, which totally sparked my interest! This is the dish I would come back for again and again. F: The pork belly. Crispy on the outside, buttery tender on the inside. It did exactly what it was supposed to do and did it well. Rich, satisfying, and a little indulgent. Kill: The chicken satay. And I say that with respect because it was still good. That peanut sauce was creamy, savory, and slightly sweet in the best way. Unique from other peanut sauces for sure. But compared to the other two dishes, it just did not steal the spotlight. Someone had to go. Service was excellent and the presentation of each dish was beautiful. You can tell they really care about what they are putting out. The interior was nice and modern. Everything came out in a timely fashion and was great from start to finish. I will definitely be back for more larb and to work my way through the other menu items!

Thai Tea Tiramisu
Danielle B.

Second owl is a hidden gem off of 2nd street. The hubby and I came here in a Saturday early evening for dinner. It wasn't to packed at the time which was nice. Shannon who took us to our seats, took our order and brought our drinks and food was one of the best servers I've had at a restaurant. She was very sweet and attentive. I ordered a butterfly tea( a very sweet and tart lemonade taste). And the hubby ordered a Thai lager beer. Both drinks were refreshing for a warm summer evening! Me and the hubby shared the pad Thai( mild) and crispy wings. The wings came with a sweet sauce and other different flavor sauce that was good as well. We also got hot sauce, pickled jalapenos, and a fish sauce in the side as well. Everything was very flavorful and filling. For dessert although I would have loved to try the mango sticky rice( it was out of season), I ended up getting the Thai tea Tiramisu. I was very happy with my choice! It was delicious!! Just like a Thai tea but in cake form lol. I will definitely be coming back here!!

A Yelp Elite event brought me to this cool little boutique restaurant. It has a simple, industrial style decor, with a few large garage style doors that open up and make the space feel bigger and more open. The staff and service were good everyone was nice and friendly. We did not have a reservation and waited no more than five minutes to be seated (around 630p on a Saturday), but it quickly filled after we arrived. It seats only about 50 diners. Food, we ordered a fresh green salad, chicken wings and duck egg rolls fir appetizers, snd Owl Fried Rice, and crab with Thai chili and basil as shareable entrees. I had a beer with my meal, and my wife had the sangria. The kitchen flow/timing was a bit off. After our order was taken, we waited about 15 - 20 minutes before the first appetizer came out. As we worked through the appetizers, the Owl Fried Rice arrived. About halfway through the rice, I realized I never got my beer and had to ask for it (I think it was forgotten). We were nearly done with the rice and still hadn't received the crab dish, so I asked the waitress about it. She looked surprised and said she'd check on it. About 5-10 minutes later, the crab dish finally came out. My wife's second sangria was comped due to this error. Let's talk about the food: Green salad - Good and fresh. Did exactly what a salad should do. Wings - Excellent. Well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Three wings - portion was smaller than typical, as this was part of the Yelp comp. A normal app is 5 wings. Duck egg rolls - Great flavor, but the wrapper was a little thick and dense. Owl Fried Rice - Really good overall. The curry flavor comes through strong in a good way. My only issue was that there was just one shrimp in the whole dish. Maybe go lighter on the pineapple and add more shrimp. Crab with Thai chili and basil - Excellent. The flavors and preparation were on point. Despite the delays, this was still a pleasant experience. I'll definitely return and would recommend checking this place out. If the weather's nice, I suggest grabbing a patio seat (there are only nine).

If you've ever eaten at Owl Owl, you'll love the more upscale version on 2nd Street. We stopped by for lunch on a Monday and it was pretty dead. The service from the start was friendly. We were given a lunch menu in addition to the regular menu. The lunch menu just adds a soup or salad in addition to the entree. We shared the mild Pad Kee Mao with chicken and love the amount of veggies in this dish. Although we asked for mild, it definetely still had a kick of spice. The salad was fresh topped with a delicious dressing. The Butterfly tea is a must order. It's amazingly pretty and tastes so good. We sat outside and flies can be an issue, but there are mini fans on the table that somewhat helped. Metered parking is available. Overall, this spot still has the same great flavors as the original. The cost was just a bit high at $30 for 1 entree and a drink. Didn't quite feel like lunch special pricing.

Chicken pad Thai
Ingrid M.

Great Thai food! Great addition to Second Street/Belmont shore. We decided to try something new and happy we did! Second Owl is cute staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The pad Thai amazing, our appetizer egg rolls so yummy. Happy hour has great pricing - can't wait to go back for their sangria. They allow dogs on their sidewalk dining area - parking is typical of the Belmont shore area.

How much are the lunch specials? Why are there no prices on the menus? Except upgrades.

The prices are on the left of the items, but I can see how you mistook them for their list numbers. The prices are looking pretty high.

Well, I figure before I start on the new pile of reviews I need to write from my road trip, I…read moreshould probably also finish the reviews I needed to write from *before* my road trip, like this relatively nearby Thai place we went to now about 3 months ago, that I wrote down notes for and never posted, cause life is overwhelming. Anyway, now about 3 months ago... we were here around lunchtime on a Saturday, cause we were in the area, and hadn't tried it yet. Service was great with one weight hiccup. We sat down and had water in front of us and our order taken basically immediately. Ordered a pad se ew, khao soi ($16 each for the entrees), and a large Thai tea ($7) to share. The pad ke mow and the Thai tea came out basically immediately. We'd already drunk all our water and had someone come back out to refill it, when the khao soi showed up about 15 minutes later with no mention of the delay. (We also got our check and paid quickly when we were done. Dunno what happened with the khao soi.) The Thai tea was great, and if you're sharing it with someone, 7 bucks is a great price for basically two Thai teas. The pad se ew - the first dish we always judge a Thai place on, being one of both of our favorite Thai dishes - was excellent. Great noodles, perfectly cooked and seasoned, with plenty of Chinese broccoli (I always like to call out the places that use inferior, wrong American broccoli instead, as was *not* the case here). 16 bucks, but that seems to be the going rate these days for Thai food (I remember when it was like half that much...), and you get a good portion. Good portion on the khao soi too. Wonderfully delicious crispy chicken, and a good amount of it. Great curry. Slightly too many crispy noodles, slightly not enough of the regular king - noodle-wise, just ok. In terms of khao soi, ST Noodle is definitely still the gold standard, with Thai District in 2nd. This could be 3rd, though. "Medium" spicy also wasn't very spicy - my wife liked it; I liked it a lot more after adding a bunch of chili sauce.

But this place is a must. You know what to expect and the food is alway great so to be a regular is nice. Every time we stop by, there not usually a wait time even though it's pretty lively. We alway get seated pretty fast. The place isn't too big but decent in size with two sections available. Staff are alway so friendly and welcoming. That's a good sign and of course the food, another reason why we come here whenever we're in the area. I have my usual that's a must for me as I know what to expect. We tend to go with either their larb or papaya salad which both dish are quite tasty and flavorful. Spice level to your liking. This visit, the larb. Always served with a wedge of cabbage. The flavor is alway great and every bite, flavorful. Of course the only place that I alway get the boat noodles. I've had it at other places but this is my favorite in Long Beach. The broth is great and thick with all the meat. Chinese broccoli accompanied as well. It's comfort food and alway hits the spots. This time we've tried another dish that we've never had. The chili garlic fish with rice. We were informed that it would take about 15 minutes which was fine. Deep fried sole fillets with garlic and chili sauce served on top a bed of mixed salad. First off, there was loads of fish and it was quite tasty and the sauce, it was good. A dish that was quite tasty and great for sharing. Overall, the food has alway been great and service has always been excellent. Each and every meal have always been enjoyed. It's our go to in Long Beach.

Definitely more of a Thai fusion spot instead of an authentic Thai food spot but so good!…read more For appetizers we got the chicken satay and the pork jerky. The chicken satay was to be expected nothing special but it was good, the pork jerky was phenomenal I've never had it before and really enjoyed it! The mains we got pad see ewe beef and the nutty chicken. Both were delicious and had good flavor! I will say that the spice levels here are pretty mild we got medium spicy but it was more like a between mild and medium spicy so if you like spice definitely ask for it! Portion sizes are pretty good here, the two of us had leftovers to take home! Thai tea presentation is super cute and unique! Flavor wise it's nothing special but presentation wise it's super cute w the popsicle and everything! Service was pretty fast we came in on a Saturday and only had to wait maybe 15 min for a table? We ordered everything at once and it all came really fast (ie: before we were even halfway through the appetizers the main entrees showed up). Waiters were overall pretty nice and did check on us a few times. Nice casual ambiance. Music choice is kind of interesting they were playing kpop when we were there. Overall I could see this being a great place to meetup w friends, maybe a cute place for a date given how cute the Thai tea presentation is. There is a small parking lot which is surprising for this area of Long Beach but take note that on the weekend it might be full! Otherwise there's street parking in the surrounding area.

When we walked in, I immediately felt underdressed because the inside of the restaurant was decorated so nicely! The only slightly off-putting thing was how many flies there were because of the hot weather, but luckily the restaurant was prepared with little fans/propellers to keep them away from the food so it wasn't a problem while we were eating. We started with the crab rangoons, which we devoured. You can't go wrong with those and I'm glad they had it on their menu! For our mains, we tried the pad see ew and the panang curry. The pad see ew was great in flavor. I wish there were more veggies and that the beef was a bit less dry but it was not a big deal and still delicious. The panang curry was spicy and nutty. The tenderloin was the best part and practically melted in my mouth! Of course we got thai teas, which were very sweet. They were also huge and definitely shareable. Service was okay, we had to ask multiple times for certain things but they were busy so it is understandable. Definitely a great thai place for date night or plans with friends, but it seems to get pretty crowded so expect a wait! I'd probably come back to try more of their menu.

The only request from anybody was for Pad Thai, the most common dish at all Thai restaurants. I GPS my way over and order the food. I was Khao Soy on the menu and I don't see that at too many Thai places that I've been to, so I got an order of that with chicken. Of course, an order of Pad Thai, 2 orders since I have 5 hungry people to feed. Also, I ordered the Thai coconut soup, I think it's called Tom Kha with chicken.

My favorite bowl of soup - Singapore Laksa Mee…read more The Buena Park location of Uncle Fung Borneo Eatery closed many years ago. It was the closest & most convenient location for me to visit. Since that time, I haven't had a delicious bowl of Singapore Laksa Mee. Being under the weather for several weeks, I thought it worth the gas money to visit the Uncle Fung in Long Beach for some Asian soup for the soul. Singapore Laksa Mee- Spiced coconut curry broth w/ shrimp paste, fried tofu, fish cake, shrimp, soy sauce egg, sweet corn, bean sprouts, shallots & green onion. If that isn't tempting enough, customers have a choice of bihon (rice noodles), flat noodles or housemade noodles. I keep telling myself to try the soup with bihon or flat noodles, but I always end up sticking with the housemade noodles. If it's housemade, how can you not? Just as good as memory recalls, the Singapore Laksa Mee was rich, soothing, and a pleasure to eat. You'd think I'd miss thick cuts of pork chashu, as with Japanese ramen, but I don't, at all. I relished each spoonful of soup, not leaving a drop inside my bowl. Service was great. The staff were friendly & hospitable. A good amounting of seating inside, the restaurant is on the quaint side, with a few al fresco tables for dining outside. Uncle Fung Borneo Eatery is located inside the Target shopping center, between HiroNori Craft Ramen & The Melt. I will make it my mission to be a frequent customer of Uncle Fung Borneo Eatery in Long Beach. I don't want this location to suffer the same fate as the Buena Park location, as I would have to drive to Alhambra to visit their sister restaurant, Borneo Kalimantan, to get my Singapore Laksa Mee fix. Their entire menu is great, whether it be their roti or noodle plates. However, for first timers, I highly recommend Uncle Fung's Singapore Laksa Mee.

*** 4% credit card usage fee ***…read more Uncle Fung Eatery is a sister store of Borneo Eatery in Alhambra. The eatery specializes in Indonesian / Malaysian / Singaporean cuisine. The eatery is located in a busy plaza across from the Tibor Rubin VA Medical Center that also caters to local students from California State University Long Beach. There is another Uncle Fung Eatery location in Buena Park. [Parking]: Pretty busy free plaza parking lot and may require a little bit of patience before finding an available spot. [Atmosphere]: Casual eatery and customers order at the front counter. The eatery only accepts takeout orders when ordering after 8 PM. Luckily there are several outdoor tables for plaza visitors, so our party was able to eat at a table rather than inside my car. [Menu]: Smaller selection at this location than at Borneo Eatery in Alhambra. Some of Yelp's top highlighted items include Singapore Laksa, Roti Prata, and Chicken Satay. *** Roti Prata (flour based pancake grilled until perfection and served with Indonesian curry sauce - small $5.50): Absolutely delicious pancake with an amazing curry dipping sauce. The dipping sauce was basically a stronger version of the curry broth from laksa. If you like the curry broth from laksa, then you will like this even more. Singapore Laksa (shrimp based curry laksa broth, shrimp, fish cake, fried tofu, marinated egg, sweet corn, bean sprouts - egg noodle $15.50): Good noodles and savory curry broth. This bowl of noodles had other excellent toppings like fish cake and marinated egg. *** S-tier on the food, but I will knock off a star on (1) being forced to order takeout 30 minutes before closing time, (2) smaller menu selection, and (3) additional transaction fee on using cards.

Overall, I had a good experience. The servers were nice, the prices seemed reasonable for most dishes. The menu is simple enough and the seating and dining tables are all clean. I got the dishes my friend recommended to me: Student Noodle ($15.50+extra for fried egg): the first time I had student noodles at another restaurant, I didn't like it because it was very bland to me. The student noodle here was good texturally and quantity-wise. They used the thin rice noodles I really liked and it was full of vegetables and shrimp. I think student noodles tend to be blander than most other dry noodles I'm used to, but there were plenty of condiments on the table to make up for it. 4/5 stars Beef Skewers ($17.95): I was really looking forward to this since my friend RAVED about it, but, alas, the quality of the beef was mid. There were a lot of fatty parts and connective parts that was too tough to break through. The taste alone is really good and reminds me of the vietnamese version, which has a good balance of savory and sweet. There is a side of pickled vegetables/salad, which was very tasty! 3/5 stars for the beef but 10/5 stars for the salad on the side. The most inconvenient thing about this restaurant is parking. There is a small parking lot...but I think there are only about 10-ish parking spots. Otherwise, it's street parking and it is bumper-to-bumper and double-parking nightmare. Thai tea ($5.95): pretty standard. 3.5/5 stars I still might come back to try other menu items.
