Best Continental Restaurant Long Beach Near Me

Melinda Albert: Recommended dishes House Salad, Carbonara

Ariana Burches: Everything about this small and cost restaurant is incredible and the food is amazing!

Chad Nichol: I’m a tourist who lucked into this place. Let me tell you about my experience. I walk into this little place and was greeted by this little older gentleman with a thick but understandable Italian accent. He was very friendly. At the table by the door we’re four or five men speaking Italian. There was no crazy or over the top romantic decor. Just an amazing authentic Italian atmosphere. The food was excellent. They use great quality olive oil. We’re coming back next time we’re in town!

J K (Kor): I live in Long beach and my brother coming to town from Indiana and he said he want Italian food, i said all the Italian food that i know closed on Monday so i let him pick the place and he said come meet at Cafe Gazelle. All i can say this place is truly gem. I wasn’t hungry at that time but i ate all of what we ordered and it was super delicious. Best Carbonara i have ever had.

Kristin Davis: Service was fantastic: friendly, accommodating, and attentive. Literally every food item was excellent. It was the best ravioli I have ever had. It is pretty teeny, so not good for a group, but five of us had a great dinner in an intimate setting.

Jessica Castro: I lived in Belmont Shore for almost 4 years and this was our first time. This cozy little restaurant had delicious food, and great warm service. We were greeted, and we were able to choose where to sit. We went during dinner time on a Tuesday. They play soft jazz in the background, and its dimmly lit for a cozy feel and seating is nicely spaced out following covid-19 rules. They offer a sizeable wine list, and fresh warm bread to start. We had a salad to start, entrees, and followed by a shared dessert. We will definitely be coming again.

Bartbara Goldeen: Food was excellent,and serve with ease staff was friendly and welcoming there were four of us and wait time wasn’t too long .I would recommend this place to my friends

Hieu Luong: Cute little small moms and pops restaurant!

Kathleen Mead: Mario and his family have been serving me and my family for 2 decades….Always with great care, professionalism, and most of all-Amazing food.Thank you!CiaoKathleen MeadCatalina Island

Puddingstone: Do Not judge the food on the bread. Don't bother trying the bread. I'm not certain how they call it bread... I honestly no joke almost told our group to leave if the bread was any indicator of the food to come.. and it was a special occasion so I didn't want to risk it but we had already opened a bottle of wine so I was willing to chance it..--But the foooood?...The stuffed pasta pouches are AMAZING. Get them.Also the spaghetti, the pesto and Bolognese are great.All pasta al dente perfection with perfect chew and perfect give.Fried artichokes for starters? Yes, the portion could afford two more pieces, please....but seriously, them there stuffed pouches... I need seconds!

Cindy Hall: . The food was very good. Small portions on the pasta dish. Warm bread with oil and vinegar before was nice. Our server was extremely nice, but service was slow, could have been from the holiday and possible shortage of staff? I feel like for the price of the dishes, a side salad or ?? something should come with the dishes. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.

Jesse Gonzalez: I must have been living under a rock to not have been aware that this place was here, so close to home. First of all the food is as close to legitimate Italian food as possible. Everything we ordered was delicious and we'll presented. The servers and personnel were friendly. I had the ciopino soup and it was to die for. I can't wait to go back and try their other offerings. My wife and kids liked their food equally. We all have been to Italy and we can easily refer anyone to this place if they want to try real Italian food. The bruscheta is my barometer to measure the quality of the food relative to Italy's and theirs is second to none.
