After ordering from the girl that seemed like she would rather be doing anything than taking our order (including singing loudly while we were ordering) and spending $80 for 4 people, we get home with our food and disappointment. My daughter ordered banh mi. Girl at the register asked "banh mi what". Not, "which option would you like in the banh mi" or anything polite/professional/helpful. Daughter said the sandwich thinking they must have some other dishes with banh mi, seeing as how bahn mi is a specific type of sandwich served on a specific type of bread. She got it on a hamburger bun (imagine ordering a cuban and getting it on hamburger bun) . I ordered general's chicken and my other daughter got sweet and sour. They looked and tested exactly the same. Both had almost no sauce (see picture) so it was basically chicken nuggets with a light drizzle of sauce. Thankfully my wife liked hers (kimchi fries, and some rice dish that I cant recall the name of). Overall a waste of $80. Hopefully it was just an off night considering all of the good reviews and recommendations I had to try this place. Unfortunately for the price, I don't think I'll be giving it a second chance

this is one of those places, that make me think of that poem by EB Browning- “how do i love thee.. let me count the ways…” First of all the food, is always amazing, and they have a little of something for EVERYONE- the steak wrap, one of the best i have ever had. the banh mi fries and summer spring rolls are on my weekly diet- then there are the house made crab rangoons- that you cannot stop eating. The staff, always pleasant- always so amazing and helpful. Since i have moved to long beach this is one of our families weekly staples- we are so glad it is in our town! If you are thinking about coming, and never been - let this be your invitation. ❤️

I used to go here 6 years ago and quit. Went back for the first time. It’s disgusting. Prices are astronomical. You want WAY BETTER FOOD and WAY CHEAPER PRICES. go to beachside grill!! Her food is amazing and cheap. I always want more food when i leave to take. It’s mouth watering. Long beach deli is a joke now. The meat on my cheeseburger po boy was so hard i could use it at a hockey game. $40 for food I wouldn’t give to a stray dog.
