Populairste Italiaanse restaurants in Long Beach

The waiter was very professional and well versed and experienced. The Halibut was a little dry but the 3 other meals were perfect. The seafood pasta was light in sauce and not overwhelming like other places. Just right and not too creamy. Salads were amazing Pricing was a little high mostly due to high alcohol costs. for example, the Rombauer should NOT be $40 a glass when you can buy a bottle of it at the store for that. We had 3 drinks and 4 cmplete meals without appetizers for $519. You can compare from there.

It’s often the case that a new restaurant takes time to work out their system. That is NOT the case at Nettuno, where we dined on grand opening night. Chef Giuseppe Musso has brought his team with him, upped his game, and hit the ground running. The setting is fabulous, bright, big yet somehow intimate, perhaps due to the well curated art collection adorning the walls. Our meal: antipasti…anchovy shortbread (heaven), focaccia accompanied by an amazing olive oil. Primi…bucatini al cacio e pepe, one of chef Musso’s signature dishes with his own well-executed twist, squid ink fettuccine ai frutti di mare, delectable. Accompanied by a glass of La Quercia di Montepulciano. I dolci were the panna cotta alle fragole and a panforte con pistachio e panna. I highly recommend Nettuno, and I’m sure reservations will be quite necessary in the very near future. The restaurant’s opening coincided with the grand opening of the refurbished Fairmont Breakers hotel. Before dinner belly up to the adjacent bar, and enjoy an after dinner drink in the lounge (also adjacent). There will be live jazz. Also worthwhile is a trip up the elevator to the sky room restaurant, with fabulous views of the Queen Mary and harbor, and the Halo bar one floor higher. Soon to be a downtown hotspot.

Service was excellent, food was amazing. Family owned, very welcoming and engaging.

Great ambience and delicious food. Helpful and pleasant staff. We got seated right away and timing of service was good. Plenty of time for a relaxed meal before the theatre.

First time and we’ll definitely be back. Great ambiance (sax player was great). The entire team was super friendly and we loved speaking with the owner. The backyard setting is super cute! Everyone loved what they ordered,
