“I went to Iron City initially out of convenience as they as directly across the alley from me but have continued to go based on the quality of the food, drink and service. I have had wonderful interactions with the bartenders and servers, particularly Elise, Pistol & Trixie. Despite being busy, they don't rush me to make a decision (not my strong suit ) and always know my drink order (nothing to brag about ). It is the only bar/restaurant I have ever gone to by myself knowing I am among friends. The food is diverse and includes but is not limited to or typical "bar food"... something for everyone. They not only prepare an unseasoned chicken breast for my service dog, they cut it into bite size pieces for her and are extremely welcoming.“
“Me and some friends originally stumbled across this gem back in 2017 while we were in town to attend a football game. This place is the true definition of "dive" bar. Since that wonderful night in 2017 , we talked about going back. Fast forward to March 2024, and with a few of our group relocating to other parts of the country, we knew we had to make the trip happen. So we took the drive north to San Pedro for no other reason than to spend the night so we could have the Godmother's experience one more time. Although it had changed a little (classed things up a bit if you will), the overall vibe was just that of which we remembered from 2017!! Whenever I hear anyone mention San Pedro, I will automatically think Godmother's!! Thank you Godmother's for two nights that we may not completely remember but will never forget!“
“There's definitely a reason this place keeps coming up everywhere as number ones bartenders are nice with a touch of sass like you'd like at a dive bar, but it's elevated. The prices are pretty pricey, but for the love ingredients and originality of the cocktails I guess it's alright, but I'm not staying for more than two lol. We ordered 4 cocktails and two mocktails and it was about $100 so time to go home lol. They have yummy little snacks and overall we were happy with this new Long Beach spot.“
“Our first time trying this spot. Once I heard there was a lobster specific spot in the South Bay, I had to give it a go. Fun little spot with a bar top as well as booths and tables. We had the lobster rolls Connecticut style, waffle fries, and flaming hot lobster fries. Definitely worth a try. We knew going into it that it would be a pretty penny but wanted to get the full experience on the first go. Also, friendly service definitely stood out. Much appreciated. If you're in the mood for lobster check this spot out.“
“This place is a gem. I told my husband I'll write a review because he loves this place - the silent movies playing in the background at night, the pizza with the dough cooked through with a little char, and even when we're not in the mood for pizza we'll come here for salads and appetizers. Any time it was his turn to prepare dinner we ended up here - he loved the vibe of this place, the familiar faces and awesome service. I told him this review was for him but it's really for me too. We will miss you, Thunderbolt Pizza! Thank you, Jay, Christie, and Tyler for being part of our family for the last 2+ years.“
“Great local place that has a cute store next door with a variety of beer/wine choices and some upscale snacks.Food, drinks and vibe of the bar are always amazing. Every one always seems to be having a good time whenever I’m there. The staff is super nice and helpful with any questions I have had.“
“Highly recommended!Great customer service, good atmosphere and yummy food. I love their deal which is 2 tacos with beer, great deal and the customer service is so kind, feels like I'm a part of a family!!!I love this place! I will definitely come back!!Thank you so so much.“
“It’s such an amazing experience to get some fresh seafood there! We were looking for shrimp cocktail everywhere. It seems that shrimp cocktail is such an “old/ comfort” food now which is difficult to find nowadays! It was fresh and delicious!!!! And we got some clams, mussels, and shrimps with garlic butter which were delicious! The nice guy who helped, Brock, was so nice, helpful, and kind! We had such an amazing time, maybe also it’s a weekday and everyone there was having a blast!“
“Never had ramen broth that wasn't made from pork. The taste was amazing, light, refreshing and less oilier than tonkotsu. The noodles were boiled to perfection, chewy and delicious. The TanTan Men were tasty as well, the peanut broth wasn't too overpowering. I will definitely go back again in the near future.“
“This location has gone under numerous names and owners over the years but this incarnation is the best so far. Great beer options, well stocked bar, and a very good kitchen are all available to the visitor. I came by for lunch and ordered the cheese steak sandwich. It was AMAZING. They use truffle cheese, great bread, and the whole thing was delicious. Small pickle slice and pickled veggie garnish was a great touch. Service is solid and the place was not very crowded at noontime. Lots of live music and other stuff going on at night too.“
“We accidentally went to another brewery instead of this one but I'm glad we got back in the car and headed here... food was good and beer was even better... I tend to like my beer colder but other than that it was good. They had live music which is what attracted us to this place!“
“really solid burgers & tots it wasn't quite as smashed as i would prefer, (or as smashed as it was the first time i went) resulting in a bit of a thicker undercook but still tasty. close to the beach. street parking can be a bit tough but you'll figure it out“
“?? Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4 stars)I recently had the pleasure of visiting Lomita Alehouse during their Octoberfest celebrations, and I must say, it was a fantastic experience! ??At first glance, the bar may seem a bit small, but do not let that deceive you. The cozy atmosphere adds to its charm, and it creates a wonderful sense of camaraderie among patrons. ??What sets Lomita Alehouse apart is their inclusion of a billiard table. This added feature is a great way to engage with friends while enjoying a drink. I had a blast challenging my friends to friendly games of pool.??One unique aspect that I really appreciated was the utilization of the outdoor parking area for a live concert. This addition was unexpected but turned out to be an amazing surprise. The atmosphere was electric, and the good vibes were contagious. ??The staff were attentive and friendly, making sure everyone had a great time. They seemed genuinely passionate about making the experience memorable for all customers. The service was quick, and the drinks were reasonably priced. ??Overall, my time at at this bar was truly enjoyable. The combination of the Octoberfest celebration, billiard table, and the vibrant atmosphere in the outdoor concert area made for an unforgettable night. I highly recommend giving this bar a visit if you're looking for a good time. Cheers! ?? #arnoldvides“
“Omg BEST PIZZA ever!!! So nostalgic and Bobby makes you feel like you’re truly eating with family! I started working near by and I am so happy that I found a local place to eat that taste Amazing and has the greatest vibes!!!! Regular for life <3“
“Nice local place good food and drinks at a reasonable price. Great place to watch the games. The staff is very friendly. I had the Barbacoa Quesadilla that was very good. They have a private room for parties of business you can book. Great place to hangout and meet the locals.“
“The pizza was delicious and was actually served piping hot. (not always so at other pizza places) Amazing beer selection. They had one of my favorites... Pliny the Elder. The music seems loud but we were able to easily hold a conversation (which was nice because we gathered from 3 different states).“
“Noisy dark bar with people having a blast.Yes good quality and quantity of food.I had fish and chips. The single piece I ordered was more than twice as thick as most places have. Partner had pork chops and mash and was satisfied.10 screens to watch, but blink and you will miss the plain door to enter the place.“
“Got into town late and was looking for something open past 9pm on a weekday and found this place closeby. Was a chilly night so hot ramen and beers to end the night was a win win for me.Parking was tight but we were seated right away, ordering the ramen set, fried rice and some beers. Service was quick, food was hot and delicious and we all left full and satisfied. 5 stars??“
“Rosemallows is definitely a vibe and I'm so happy I came across it!While hubby and I were wrapping up an event, we wanted to grab a drink. We came across Rosemallows in Long Beach. The name really intrigued me and the photos on their website and on Yelp lured us in. While walking up to enter, we heard music bumping and people dancing. I was a bit confused because it honestly was giving me club vibes. But we walked in and people were just living their best lives dancing along to the best of the music. I was for it! Hubby and I made our way to the bar and parked ourselves there. They had drink specials going on so I started off with a basic tequila pineapple. After I chugged that down, I decided to get fancy with it. I ordered a Melona Colada. Let me tell you, it was soooooo delicious!! It was just perfection in a glass.Rosemallows is a restaurant, however, on Sunday evenings they have Sunday Sessions. No food is served during this time and it's just good music playing, good drinks being sipped, and just good vibes flowing around. I was all for it. The staff was super friendly and accommodating.Hubby and I are already planning our next visit.“
“Went here for a business lunch, had the squash tacos which were a very tasty vegetarian option. They were accommodating of our ~15 person group last minute, helping to move tables on the patio together for us. Got food out in a reasonable amount of time for our large group.“
“There were enough people there for a good atmosphere, yet it wasn't crowded. When they played the live music it was a bit too loud for us to be able to hear each other, but I had a lot of fun! The bartenders were friendly, pretty, and easy to get along with. I would absolutely go back next time I have the chance!“
“We ate a meal here for our first time and we pleasantly surprised by how good it was. My husband and always split a meal because portions are so huge, we shared a tri tip sandwich with French fries. The whole place was very energetic and we were not disappointed at all!“
“Great food and beer selection. Nice happy hour! 3-7 every day! Tons of food options. Brazed short rib was the bomb! Boom boom shrimp were tasty. Great margaritas. And high top seating which worked out because I had a recent back issue so didn't need to ease my easy down into a normal height chair. We'll be back.“
“Definitely a great place to eat. The staff is not very helpful, you have to spend time waving them down in order to get your drinks filled. The quality of the meats are great, the food is good because you cook it yourself. I can definitely say we had our fair share of food, we went away full. It's a very busy place so if you plan to go make sure you leave time to wait before being seated.“
“I came in on a Monday night and Chrystal (or Krystal) was working. The place looked really clean and there was this cool bouncer working there. Chrystal was nice and seemed to like working there. I was the only one in the place but it is Monday night. I will be coming back and I glad that there is a Breakroom in SP...“
