This place is sooo cute, it's really small and intimate. We went on a Friday with no reservation and we were still able to get in(definitely make one of you can)Service was prompt. Drink was delicious even the tap water was good lol WASABI FRIES DEVILED EGG (3) NAGOYA WINGS (4 ) Everything came out hot and the prices were reasonable, the bill came out to like 50$ read more

I initially made a reservation for four at tokyo noir. At the last minute, two of my friends cancelled. I tried to modify my reservation online and change the number of guest from 4 to 2 and keep the same date and time. The option was not available. The day before reservation day, I sent a message via open table to let tokyo noir know that only two guest will show up. When i arrived, they were not aware of the change and seemed annoyed that i didnt let them know. Had they checked their messages, they would have seen the request. The other thing i don't like is the vibe. Im used to going to bars where the bar tenders and wait staff will chat with the guest. That was not the case here. They were focused on serving drinks and food and less focused on the vibe. The drinks are great but i wouldn't return due to the lack of energy. read more

I've heard so much about this place. A little hidden speakeasy with the entrance just off a little alleyway. You could walk by it and not notice it. A little lantern above is the where the door is. Buzz the doorbell for entrance. We had a reservation for Friday for drinks and maybe food. When we walked in, the hostess was very sweet. Our seating area was right when you walk in. A seating area along the corner and some ottoman. I didn't expect the place to be quite small. There's a couple of tables along the side and the bar area with seating. That's mainly it. And it was quite dark which was fine. Did have to turn the phone flashlight on to check out the drink menu..lol... Showing our age...lol... They specialize in Japanese style handcrafted cocktails. Menu did offer some unique drinks, a twist of a lot of classic drinks. Some were quite pricey compared to others. Besides the drinks which is what this place is known for, they did have some small bites on the menu. We didn't have any besides the edamame which I say was delicious. As it's known for drinks that what we came for. There was good amount of us so a lot of the choices were made and tried. Drinks didn't take long to arrive but first impressions. They didn't looked like anything major. Honestly they looked like a glass of water. Some had the trimming with the salt, while others was basically a massive ball of ice that took over the glass. They're known for their drinks which I must say people love it here. They were strong which you get your moneys worth. The fun details and illustration of the cocktail menu was great. Each had their own different taste. Besides all the drinks we ordered, they were good and strong. But for the place, it was ok. A small intimate room with limited 90 minutes seating for each booking. Im not sure if walk in was available. The bar seating is quite tight. Food that came out did look quite tasty. Their small bites so a few dishes would be needed. Edamame was tasty which I do recommend. But when it comes to the drinks, some was good while some was just whatever. It's strong so that's a plus. They're pretty tight with staff. I think there was just the hostess and the two bartenders. It's a fun little spot for cocktails. I can say I've been now. read more

Small, but a good vibe and good music.Excellent customer service. So many cool cocktails on the menu, but I ordered a Last Word and it wasnt on the menu, but it didn't disappoint. We ordered the spicy tuna, wagyu skirt, hamichi, and wagyu roll. Everything was so flavorful and hit the spot. Had to order another round of the hamichi. Definitely worth going. read more

Tokyo Noir had marvelous cocktails that were adventurous and uniquely presented. However, we were underwhelmed with the food and service, for the price. Service was slightly slow and they were out of 7 drinks on their menu at 6pm on a Saturday. The food was very yummy but the "sashimi platter" was 5 pieces of paper thin salmon for $18. Overall would recommend for a fun experience on a night out, but we won't be back. Very classy decor inside and photogenic. read more

Small speakeasy hidden in an alley. The food was actually very good and memorable. The Oysters were one of my fav Kumamotos, fresh and flavorful but they could've been rinsed a bit better. Pork Buns were a good tasty bite, and the sushi was surprisingly really really good. Cool place to check out for some small bites and cocktails! read more

Moody, vibey Japanese speakeasy with delicious drinks that play bangers all night. Located on the side alleyway street next to El Barrio Cantina that is signaled by a hanging red paper lantern. Reservations are highly recommended for late weekends, but we have been able to walk up during the week. There is bar seating, low tables with couches, and high tables - any spot is a great spot and you can see the bartenders working their magic of cutting up ice, a little bar flair. The drinks I get most often: First love - delicious fluffy shaved ice that feels more like a refreshing summer dessert than alcoholic drink, juice theory - savory and umami, strawberry yuzu - sweet, strong, smokey. Food I get most often: Okonomi corn dogs and wasabi fries - the fries are the perfect bar snack. On some nights, bartender says we can request songs to be played (Seatbelts - Tank! has been our most often requested) Street parking or mini parking lot across the street. Shares the space with El Barrio Cantina. Highly recommend for date night, small gatherings (about 4 people), small bites and A+ cocktails. read more

So, my brother and I made a reservation at Tokyo Noir which just happened to be on the very night the Dodgers won the World Series . We hadn't seen each other in half a year--life had been heavy since the recent passing of husband ,but that night gave us room to breathe and connect We tried the corndogs that somehow hit the soul, and the drinks? My brother's was part drink, part ramen- flavor adventure. We laughed, we reminisced, and we got to watch ice-shaving bartenders like they were creating art! I'd go back with him in a heartbeat. I ended the night by Pouring some liquor out for my husband .. jon, you would have loved this place. read more

Tokyo Noir - Corn dog heaven!! - Speakeasies Near Me - Long Beach, California

I booked a reservation on open table and it was smooth. Once I arrived I wasn't sure where this place was exactly. I ended finding myself asking the host from El Barrio Cantina and she guided us to the right entrance. Once we located the entrance on the left side of the building through the alley and saw the red lantern. We saw a few people waiting and we were 3 min late but we were told by other people the host comes out every so often. The host came and greeted us and sat us on the bar. She later handed me the menu and it was so cool - like a comic book! I did order the yuzu strawberry but it was no longer available for the night and went with the it's MG. The person making the drinks recommended the Astro boy drink and it seemed popular everyone was ordering it. I will try it next time. I had a great time and can't wait to come try it. read more

Drinks 10/10 Vibes 10/10 Food 6/10 This place lives up to expectations. The dopest speakeasy decorated hella fly with banging music. Perfect place for a date night. Reservations open 2 weeks in advance! Must reserve ahead of time no drop ins. Recommendations from their Winter 2025 Menu: - Astro Boy - Initial B -Okinawa Gimlet -Yari Mango For food do not skip out on the Charred edamame. I'd personally skip the wagyu skirt cause it was way too chewy. The service can be a little slow but they be packed so understandable. The food & drinks still come out relatively fast tho! read more

The hubby made reservations for a Wednesday night at 930pm. Parking around that time was rough!! lol we circled around for about 10-15 min for a space until we found a couple leaving about 2 blocks down. This place is tucked in an alley way and pretty easy to find thankfully! It's a small spot but very intimate. Our server gave us some time as we looked at the menu. I ordered the Astro boy and the hubby ordered the Hibiki old fashioned. We loved seeing the bartender carve the ice by hand. They played hip hop music which is always a vibe! We didn't order food but from what we saw it looked good. The bathroom is shared with the restaurant next to it. Me and the hubby plan on going back to try the next seasonal drinks and maybe some of the food!! read more

We saw this place nearby and wanted to try it out for a while and finally got to last week! It's like a little hidden speakeasy behind another restaurant and you can only see it from the little "TOKYO NOIR [in Japanese]" lantern above the door that you need to hit a button at , then wait for a server to help you out. We had a reservation but it does seem possible to get in without one... but it will be a long wait if you are more than one or two people. It's very small and cozy, with some couples seating along the back, bar seating, and two corners for larger parties of 4 or 8+. The food, drinks, and menu are all super creative. At some point maybe want to try a bit of everything! I personally had the Freak On A Leash since it had the most flavors I really wanted to try, but maybe will want to try their savory cocktails next time. My friends got the Astro Boy, Old Fashioned, and First Love. We shared a little bit of all of them and they were top tier! Okonomiyaki Corn Dogs were our snack for the night and those were delicious. I thought I tasted a Kurobuta sausage perhaps! We may come back again one day with a larger party to experience this but it definitely did not disappoint. Excited to see how the menu evolves this and next season. One note too, we wanted to try their M+M Gummies but we were told they are still perfecting the texture so they did not have them yet. read more

Absolute banger! Location: The bar itself is tucked away on a side street, if you've ever been to Long Beach you know how parking goes. For those unfamiliar, you'll be able to find a spot near, just drive up or around the block. There are plenty of walkable restaurants, and such in the area it's a well placed gem. Customer service: The staff here is excellent. Once you're invited in, and take your cozy seat (this place is very small...adds to the charm) you can sit, and realx for a second before being approached. When you are seemingly ready, your menus will be presented with all the options for the day. I really appreciate the tailored service, it's not a robotic welcome greeting, and a rush of usual menu items. This is different. Food/drinks: Like I mentioned before, you're not getting the same ole thing like every other bar. The drink menu evolves over time. I've seen different items on a bi-monthly basis. Not everything changes, and it shouldn't. There are some staples I couldn't imagine going away. The Astro Boy for example, is such an incredibly crafted drink. It's sweet, but the citrus is prevalent. It's got a great froth texture to the drink itself, topped off with a lil Astro boy so you don't forget what you're sipping on. From a "non-vodka" drinker, this is magic. The food does not lag behind. I had a perfectly medium seared beef tapas. Later I tried the wasabi fries, loved the fries...still don't like wasabi. But I was trying something new. Overall the food was excellent, it came out fresh and well flavored. Tokyo Noir has never let me down, and I recommend anyone interested in traditional Japanese crafted drinks, and general vibes to check this place out. Pro tip: Reservation! Get one. The venue is pretty small, which adds to the allure. Just play it safe, and make a reservation. read more

Drinks, food, and the vibes were great for this little japanesy speakeasy. Loved the creative menu and illustrations.

Tokyo Noir has great craft cocktails, great service, and great vibes. Unexpected find in the LBC - a Japanese speakeasy with inventive cocktails featuring ice flown in from Japan. My favorite is the kakigori, which is like a delicious and refreshing shaved ice dessert. Another favorite of mine is Astroboy - a must try in my opinion. It's a nice spot for a date or night out, and I find it on my rotation of bars to take my friends to when they visit! read more

I can't believe I haven't written a review for Tokyo Noir yet. Although it's long overdue, it's definitely a spot I would recommend for those looking for well crafted tasty cocktails. The bar team behind this spot is cranking out some amazing drinks. I'd definitely recommend making a reservation ahead on OpenTable as the space is small and it can get busy. Parking here can be tough as there's no dedicated lot and Long Beach parking in this area sucks. Tokyo Noir is hidden in the alleyway behind El Barrio Cantina. They have a small food menu but make sure to come earlier if you want to eat as they close their kitchen earlier relative to their closing time. As for the drinks, they're all fun and unique. There's something for everyone and I love they're bringing a bit of Japanese bar culture to California. You can watch them chip away at ice bricks to make spheres of ice for their old fashioned. They also have a Japanese kakigori machine to make shaved ice for a cocktail. It's definitely a spot I'd recommend for cocktail lovers! read more

Came here the other night for some drinks and ended up staying for dinner. At first I wanted to go else where for food but glad I gave the food here a chance. We ordered a couple of drinks I ordered the Mezcal High all and my partner ordered the Kaiju. I enjoyed my drink very smooth and refreshing my partner wasn't feeling her drink. It wasn't bad just not what she was expecting. When it came to food we put in an order for 2 orders of the sticky rice, a dragon roll and spicy tuna roll. Service was smooth and attentive which makes sense since it's a small intimate place. Ambience was cool decore was very simple but nice with the theme. Would we come back here... Absolutely it's close by, drinks are good and food is great. Makes it a winning combination. read more

Hands down my favorite bar in Long Beach. The creativity in the drinks and the precisness that you would need to make these flavor profiles work is something else. If you're open minded about your drinks and appreciate good craftsmanship when it comes to mixology, this is your spot. So as most people now know, you book online 2 weeks out. Compared to when it first opened, it's much easier to find reservations so we were finally able to check it out without staying up past midnight to book it. If you uber there, you get dropped off in front of a Mexican restaurant and you go down this alley along the side. You go up to the door and press the "on" button to the right and you get brought in, speakeasy style. The spot is dark, elegant and simple. Maybe 8-10 spots along the L-shaped bar and maybe 4 separate tables. Not a great place for a big group, maybe 4 people max. The menu will blow you away. The flavor profiles and ingredients they use defy logic. Sea urchin foam? Soba broth? A shaved ice drink? It's wild but it all works. I started with the soba drink. It had shaved daikon on top which is a bitter vegetable root commonly eaten with soba. It was like drinking soba broth and it was pretty good. I switched to somethibg sweeter with the castella banana drink (sorry don't remember the name) which was delicious. Not too sweet and the flavors were well balanced. I finished with the ichiro old fashioned. A strong drink but an excellent old fashioned that had some interesting flavors. We also got food - the bao buns, corn dogs, salmon roll, and the wagyu roll which was our favorite. Slightly spicy, excellent flavors. Loved it. The only bummer is they limit your time to 90 minutes. I get why but it would be nice if you could enjoy your drinks and hang longer. But otherwise, great service, even better drinks. Definitely amazing. read more

This place was such a vibe! I got a last minute reservation on a Friday night. Parking was tricky, but we got a street spot on a side street. We were sat immediately and had our orders taken right away. They have some light bites and some sushi roll options, but otherwise seems like mostly drinks. So fun to watch the bartenders almost perform as they make the drinks: hand carving ice under light, doing fancy long pours, so cool. We split wasabi fries (lots of wasabi) and corn dogs (so good!) and got a hibiki old fashioned and an Astro boy. The old fashioned was neat because we had just watched the bartenders carve up the ice. Astro boy was really good! I really liked this place and hope to come back! read more

Had a great time. read more

A trendy and modern Japanese style cocktail bar in Long Beach! I took my boyfriend here for his birthday! The drinks were great and the bites even better! This speakeasy has a cool intimate lounge vibe, smaller than I expected but really nice. The edamame was toasty, spicy and a little lemony. This was my first time trying oysters and they were seasoned great, they're nice and cold! The rolls were great, the baked crab and the truffle salmon roll practically melts in your mouth. Only thing I was potentially expecting was maybe a skirt steak option, maybe a good idea to add to the menu but everything was perfect, 10/10. The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable of their menu to give good recommendations. The astroboy is pretty good, tastes sweet like calpico. The only drink we weren't too crazy about was the melon drink "kaiju", strong and wasn't to our liking. The first love is a guava, snowy type of drink it was a great way to end the night. There wasn't any like birthday dessert or treat that we know of. Parking, I think you can park in the cantina parking? If you're lucky, finding Long Beach street parking can be challenging. read more

**Snagged a last-minute reservation at Tokyo Noir in Long Beach--definitely a vibe.** The decor is sleek and stylish, and the music switched to hip-hop as soon as we sat down, which was a fun touch. Lol We tried a few cocktails: **Juice Theory** and **Monochrome** were balanced and not too sweet. I didn't get the tomato garnish on the Juice Theory--it didn't match the flavors. **Astro Boy** and **Yuzu Strawberry** came next; both were on the sweeter side, and the Yuzu Strawberry was a bit too sweet for me. Ended with a solid **Old Fashioned**, complete with hand-carved ice--super smooth. Food-wise, the **spicy tuna on crispy rice**, **bluefin tostada**, and **wagyu skirt steak** were delicious. The **bao buns** were too bready and soggy for my taste, but the **corn dogs** were surprisingly good. Would definitely come back to try more drinks. Great spot to kick off a night out or for a chill weekday evening. read more

The hype has slightly died down, so, luckily, it isn't as hard to get a reservation at this amazing bar anymore. This is a speakeasy with a show. The bartenders are truly so talented at creating an experience for customers. The drinks are consistently stellar. I came here at a reserved time during a bar hop on Fourth Street. Here, I finished off my night with an Astro Boy and a Juice Theory. Both are sweet, fruity drinks and super fun ways to experience fun flavors of Asian cocktails with a modern refinement. Reservations open weekly, and I believe they take walk-ins on Tuesday nights now. Definitely come check it out for date night. read more

This place is a vibe!! Before I get started, go to their website to make reservations. Don't even think about walking in. This place seats 25 people max with 10 seats at bar. I ordered two rolls that were delicious, tuna and Salomon. I liked the salmon better. I also ordered the wasabi fries and they were amazing. For drinks I ordered the monochrome first and then the Astro boy. Someone next to me ordered first love which was like a shaved ice cocktail on the sweeter side, like a dessert. The bar tenders were Japanese and their bar skills are top tier. The entrance is in the alley so look for the painted mural. I parked on street but was told that the restaurant they share space with has parking and you can park in the lot. I will definitely be back. read more

Finally made it here over the weekend to see what all the hype is about. Tokyo Noir really is a hidden gem! The entrance is tucked down a little alley behind another restaurant, marked only by a glowing red Japanese lantern. The whole space is tiny (I think only 28 seats!), which makes it feel intimate, cozy, and perfect for a slow, intentional cocktail night.They specialize in crafted cocktails with real artistry behind the bar with bartenders carving huge blocks of ice by hand and building drinks with Japanese-inspired ingredients and layers of flavor. Drinking here feels more like a thoughtful, culinary experience rather than a casual night out. We came as a party of 5 and tried a bunch of drinks and food: Cocktails: Astro Boy - Citrus and floral. Pretty, but not for me. Drunken Tiger - You can definitely taste the layers: veggie, herbal, bitter, sweet. If you appreciate depth and nuance, this is your drink. Juice Theory - SO good we ordered it four times. Absolutely delicious! Hibiki Old Fashioned - My order. Gorgeous presentation and I loved watching the bartender carve the ice... but the giant ice block made it a little hard to sip from the glass lol. Ichiro Old Fashioned - My boyfriend's pick. He really enjoyed this one. Manila Killa - Had to represent the Filipina in me! I was waiting for that calamansi punch, but sadly it fell flat. Dirty Soba - Hahahaha. My boyfriend's twin ordered this and we all tried it... it legit tasted like soup.They designed it to mimic Japanese soba broth, so mission accomplished?? He didn't like it and the server swapped it out. Initial B - My boyfriend's drink. I assumed the banana note would be weird, but it surprisingly works! One thing worth noting is that they are not flexible on modifying cocktails. My girlfriend tried ordering one of the N/A drinks with hard liquor added and they said no. Whatever their reasoning, just be mindful before you go. Food: Wasabi Fries - A hit with the whole party. Deviled Egg - Not bad. Nagoya Wings - Everyone enjoyed these. Very big wings! Corn - Corn "ribs." Tiny and not for me. Yuzu & Eel Roll - Great rolls! Hamachi Sashimi- Light and refreshing. Crispy Rice- Good. We came here intending to have dinner and drinks, but believe them when they say the food is true tapas-style portions. I'd recommend eating elsewhere first and coming here specifically for cocktails and the experience. They only had one server for the entire room plus two bartenders, but honestly we still received great service. The vibe is intimate, moody, and elevated. It's perfect for date night or a chill night out with friends who appreciate craft cocktails. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely return just for drinks. Tokyo Noir is unique, creative, and worth checking out at least once especially if you love Japanese flavors and speakeasy-style bars. read more

Several years ago, speakeasies became a thing. Some were resurrections of old speakeasies; some were bars contrived to create an atmosphere. Tokyo Noir is a modern bar with most of the elements of an actual speakeasy. Tokyo Noir is located on Retro Row, within the Franklin School neighborhood of Long Beach. As you are travelling along 4th Street, there is no obvious signage for this bar. So how do you find it? Look for "El Barrio Cantina" restaurant. On the west side of the building, there is an alley. The alley is clean and well lit. You will see a red Japanese lantern hanging above the entrance. The entrance is decorated, to signal that something special is inside. Follow the instructions on the door to gain entry. This is a small bar. There are (maybe) 10 seats at the bar. There are five high-tops along the back wall, which can each accommodate a couple. There are two lounge areas than can each accommodate 8-10 people. Make reservations if you want to ensure the bar can accommodate your party. The bar has everything necessary to make conventional cocktails. But the reason to go is for the house's unique creations. They have a menu with hand illustrations of their crafted cocktails, along with descriptions. Have you every had an adult beverage based on Hawaiian shave ice before? The menu also has a limited list of shareable small bites. These are tasty. This is an smaller space; if the room is crowded, it can get noisy. But it is a nice place that is decorated well. The cocktails are truly crafted; and the small bites tasty. BTW ... If you are not from the area - yeah, parking can be a pain. There is a public parking lot at E 4th St (x) Cherry Ave (roughly a block away). Also, El Barrio Cantina has a small parking lot across the street. Parking is allowed there, too. read more

My sister-in-law made us reservations to Tokyo Noir so when we arrived at the location, we were promptly greeted at the door and seated. Upon first observation, the place is small - probably accommodate 20-25 people between the bar seats and the few tables around the room. The place is bathed in a soothing red light that set the tone of our experience. The server looked like she was the only one talking orders though she has help with the food drop off so everything pretty much was like clockwork. The drinks were definitely well made. I started with the soba cocktail (don't remember the exact name) but it was served in a soup bowl and it was savory - I loved it. It was definitely spirit forwarded but the saltiness and especially after you stir in the daikon, was so delicious. On the second round, I ordered the yuzu strawberry. This was a much more straightforward drink (not unfamiliar) but still delicious. I also got to try the First Love (YUM) and the Astro Boy (also YUM). As for the food, we ordered almost every item on the menu but the standouts were the charred edamame, corn ribs and wagyu skirt. As mentioned, the place is small so I don't recommend coming with a party larger than 6 at most - 2 or 4 are ideal. I want to come back and try more drinks! read more

This is a fun spot that gave New York vibes with the small intimate setting. Decor is a bit lack luster and could be so much more. The best part of the evening was the ice shaping. Something unique and different. The dessert drink we mistakenly ordered at the beginning but we went mad it was tasty and refreshing. We tried the baos and every sushi roll. We loved the truffle roll and the wagyu roll (shockingly). We also tried every drink amongst our group and the winners were the highballs as they were refreshing and perfectly paired. The service was a bit slow but it is also that vibe. read more

This speakeasy was definitely a vibe! I really liked the moody but intimate feeling lent by the decor and lighting. Watching the bartenders shape ice cubes for certain cocktails was really cool too. We really wanted to try the First Love (shaved ice) but weren't able to...something about the machine not working that day, which was a disappointment. However, we were given shots on the house that tasted like plum wine. They were pretty strong, much like the other drinks that we tried. I'm always a hoe for yuzu-flavored items so I ordered the Okinawa Gimlet and it was fresh and mouthwateringly tart, definitely satisfying. My friend ordered the Yuzu Strawberry. I didn't taste as much yuzu in this one but it was very smoky. I felt that the food items were all reasonably priced and yummy. I tried the eel hand roll, no complaints there. The wasabi fries were nice to snack on and we really enjoyed the flavor combinations from the wasabi, potatoes, and aioli. Grilled squid was tender, would have enjoyed a bit more of the spicy sauce that they provided to go with the squid. Would definitely recommend reservations as I saw some people get turned away early on a Friday evening. The space quickly filled up within an hour of opening. I hope to return soon for my First Love! read more

I had been wanting to check this place out for A while. First Impression I wish there was a separation between the entrance and the bar. Every time someone came, the light disturbed the mood and ambiance which really took away from the experience. It's a small place so I'm sure it's difficult but something to consider especially if you are placed by the door like I was. I have frequented a lot of speakeasies so I have experienced intimate settings. The drinks were very interesting and not something I have ever tasted. They felt overpriced (avg 18-19 each) considering how rushed it felt they were made I wish more time was taken though they were good. Overall, it was interesting. I don't know if I would go for a special occasion maybe if I wanted to try a different type of cocktail and if I was in the area. Again if you want drinks you probably have never had before, this is a great place. Just wish the ambiance wasn't disturbed and the drinks were so expensive. However the tastes are unique. I recommend Itchi the Killer as it was one of my favorites. read more

The ambiance and service were very reminiscent of places we visited in Tokyo. On point. The hand crafted cocktails were unique and creative, and the tidbits of food were fun.

Tokyo Noir - Corn dogs and cocktails. - Speakeasies Near Me - Long Beach, California

Tokyo Noir is a vibe -- and the Astro Boy cocktail alone is worth the visit. One of the very few times I've had a cocktail and thought, this is 100% worth the price. It was incredibly flavorful, perfectly balanced, and made with high-quality ingredients you can actually taste. Nothing overly sweet or watered down -- just a really well-crafted drink that blew me away from the first sip. The atmosphere is moody and cool, making it the perfect spot for a night out or a special drink. Can't wait to come back and try more of the menu -- but honestly, I'd return just for another Astro Boy read more

I'm afraid this place was so good that I blacked out and only got a photo of one item. I tried almost all of the appetizers and Crudo's but did not try any of the rolls. I would highly recommend making a reservation, even though they say on their social that you might not need one. I think the word has gotten out and people really have found out that this place is one of the best places in Long Beach. I tried the two sweeter cocktails that are on the menu, which is designed so beautifully in artistically. The waitress also told me that the sweet drinks are in the front of the menu and it's designed to go less sweet to bitter as you turn the page. The red lighting inside creates this very cool, mysterious exclusive feel, and the musical soundtrack the night that I went was 100% exactly what I wanted to listen to on my birthday. This place is an absolute must. read more

What an experience! To get to the bar, you enter through an alley and are greeted with a colorful and lively yet fairly discreet door. Even with a reservation, expect to wait a bit, especially if you're with a group of more than 2. Once inside, the vibes are immaculate. There's so much to look at on the walls and behind the bar. The cocktails are incredible... I feel like you can't go wrong with any of them! Got the First Love and Astro Boy cocktails, which were both excellent. First Love was phenomenal -- it is now on the list of one of my favorite cocktails EVER. Astro Boy was delicious and strong. The food was good, but not amazing. The deviled eggs were tasty, but overly salty. The spicy tuna handroll was my favorite of all the food items, but fairly average. Parking is tricky and not the easiest to find in this area. If you can, rideshare your way here and back. Highly recommend making a reservation especially for a larger party. read more
