Restaurants near California State University Long Beach

I had an excellent experience at Spaghettini. Our server, Natalie, was efficient and had such a wonderful personality. We were also welcomed by Patrick, another team member, who made sure all was well. The food was delicious as usual especially the short ribs. The cocktails are tasty as well. My fave is the Perfectly Pear. Another must try is the butter cake. Reservations are best.

We did the pre fixe menu for Valentines Day, and everything was excellent. Every item was unique and delicious and the portions were very generous, especially for the price. Valentine’s Day is always a bit of a gamble since restaurants are so busy, but service was fast and professional and everything went super smoothly. We will definitely be back!

Valentine's Day dinner was wonderful. Great ambiance, beautiful sunset view over the marina. Our server Delia was very sweet and attentive. The food was delicious as usual. My wife has severe food allergies, however they take this very seriously and the chef always does an outstanding job of preparing her order correctly. This is our "go to" spot for special occasions. Highly recommended.

Our service was outstanding. Ray was personable and friendly but not overly attentive which is exactly what I like when I want to talk to my wife while eating out. The food was great and I enjoyed the overall quality of the restaurant. While it was for a Valentine Day dinner it wasn’t anything but nice and enjoyable without being tacky or exaggerated. Will absolutely recommend this restaurant for any occasion.

We had an amazing experience at Ammatoli. The customer service and attentiveness was outstanding. Just simply being acknowledged and greeted by our hostess, waiters, busboy and being recommended dishes by our friendly waiter (Mason), made the experience pleasant and enjoyable. The restaurant offers delectable dishes from The Levant region and we were delighted by the quality and authenticity. Overall the food was excellent and we enjoyed it not just with our sense of taste but all our other senses. We will definitely be back soon.
