We visited from San Diego and were not hungry but really wanted good wine and good people watching but the bars were either charging a cover or were too crowded for us mid 40 year Olds. We asked if it was OK to sit in the outside patio for just drinks and were happily seated by a very friendly and enthusiastic bartender named Kelly. I was surprised to see they had Coppola, my fave wine, and the people watching was ace! We were so impressed with the friendly staff and location. We took tons to go and it was yummy. More...

Great service!  Came here on a Thurs night with a large party to celebrate a birthday.  The server was really attentive while having to look after other tables too.  I ordered the chicken gyro with Greek salad.  The gyro was a bit messy to eat but the flavor was good.  Others at our table ordered the all you can eat dinner and they were stuffed after multiple rounds of salad, meat, pasta, cheese and dessert.  Parking is a bit of a pain in this area as you have to park in one of the parking structures.  They do validate if you park in The Hubb parking structure but it only gives you a discount and doesn't pay for the entire ticket.  Great option for Mediterranean food in downtown Long Beach!

I've lived a few blocks away for a few years and have never been here, that changed Sunday night. Decided to try it out and all I could say is WOW!  They opened the door for us along with a greet, we grabbed a table at the bar. The manager came up introduced himself and got us drinks and an appetizer, even gave us the happy hour price. The bar tender came over and introduced herself while checking up. Within a few minutes the server refilled out drinks and started talking to us about the football game that was on. Food came out and it was top notch, about 3-4 more follow ups to see if we wanted anything else. We paid and took off, they opened the door and wished us a great night. I was literally asking was that real or were we on a TV show. Got in the car and started to drive away. The host came out, flagged us down and gave us our to-go box we left. I asked him what the deal was, why was everyone so nice? He said it's what management asks to leave a reminder in our minds. I will for sure be catching a few games here and as a local make it my spot! Service = 10Food = 10Prices = 10The perfect trio! You just can't go wrong!! Y'all rock! More...

First time eating Greek food and glad I did it here. Food was amazing service was one of the best I've had. Michele was very nice and welcoming, gave us a complete run down of the menu and even offered us samples of the lamb chops! ! Split an entire, regular salad, falafel, lamb chops that was more than enough for two. Will definitely come back to try more and will bring back family and friends. More...

George's is the best Greek food around!! First the staff, all are so friendly and welcoming it's like going to a family dinner. The lamb chops are good but I like to try different dishes. Chicken Spanachi is excellent! The chicken isn't dry, it's moist and the light grill on the spinach mixture ( same as spanakopita) gives it a great texture and taste.The entree comes with a delicious Greek salad and if you garlic I recommend the garlic feta fries. EXCELLENT!!On Friday for lunch I had the stuff salmon, SO GOOD!I miss being greeted by George he was a happy man who enjoyed seeing people. More...

It was a pleasure to be served by Brian At George's Greek Café. The environment was relaxed although it was a nippy evening, the fire and the heater kept it warm. Puppies were happy, food was delicious, Drinks are always full without asking, food was plentiful, prices are reasonable and bellies were full.  I cannot recommend a better restaurant in Long Beach. Whether it was the food, the service or the ambiance, or the only place south of Beverly Hills with Saganaki, search is Greek Cafe and Bryan are both five stars in my book. Thank you for a wonderful experience. More...

One of my good friends and I meet here sometimes for lunch and we never leave disappointed. I'm crazy about this place! Hands down the best calamari I've ever had. I also love their hummus, oh and their felafels, too. Oh, and also great drinks. I almost feel like the bartender knows not to skimp on the booze and genuinely pours the right amount of love in. I love how homely this place feels and I can't wait to come back again !! :D More...

We truly had a five star dining experience here! My husband and I couldn't believe how well our family was treated at this restaurant. We came in after a long and fun day at the aquarium with our toddler. We were seated immediately and offered a highchair without having to ask. Our drink order was taken and promptly filled. Throughout the rest of our meal, I never had to ask directly for a water refill because the team here was so adept at keeping us hydrated. We ordered the flaming cheese, a falafel gyro plate, a bowl of avgolemono, and a build-your-grill gyro meat plate. The cheese came out while I was in the restroom (very clean!) and they waited to light it until I got back. Not only was it a fun table side experience, the actual cheese plate was just delicious. Our toddler happily noshed the pita and olives while my husband and I selfishly ate the cheese (we just don't like olives, don't hate us). Both of our main courses, shared with our little one, were excellent. We couldn't believe how well prepared everything was. Some Greek restaurant food is greasy, and that was not the case here. Even the steamed vegetables were deliciously though lightly seasoned. Avgolemono is one of my favorite soups, and this bowl really hit the spot. Alongside the food being so good, our server Janet was helpful, friendly, and warm. She was delighted by our little one, and they kept each other smiling all night. Sometimes when you go to a restaurant with a small child, they get ignored or treated like a nuisance, and that was so not the case here. While our kid ate and played, Janet and her coworkers checked in on him and engaged with him. Sometimes he is shy with strangers, and he definitely wasn't with Janet. No one on staff, including the GM Shanyce, minded that our kiddo was dancing in the aisles and pushing his highchair around like a truck. They even gave us a cookie for the road, and my little one let Janet pick him up for a big hug. We will absolutely be back the next time we are in the area. Thank you George's! More...

Yum! I love Greek food (anything Mediterranean really) and this place doesn't disappoint. The George's in Long Beach is my favorite location. You can even see George himself there on occasion and he's wonderful! This location is on Candlewood in a shopping center with Souplantation, Costco and the Lakewood mall.

Came here with a friend per her recommendation on a Saturday night. It was a great dinner!Saganaki "The Flaming Cheese"--------------------------------GET THIS. They set the cheese on fire as a little show for us, which was fun! The dish came with pita bread slices, which tasted great with the cheese. So salty and flavorful. Just order this and you won't regret it!Build your own Beef & Lamb Gyro---------------------------------The gyro was very tender and seasoned to perfection. Nothing was tough. The rice was beautifully fluffy, and I enjoyed the small veggies in the rice even though they included a side of steamed vegetables on the plate. They included some pita, which was perfect as well. My favorite part of their dish was their Tzatziki, since it brought the whole dish together!Greek Chicken Sandwich-----------------------According to my boyfriend, thia sandwich was just okay. He commented that there was too much kalamata flavor that overpowered the whole sandwich for him. Based on the other two dishes, I still had a great meal and time so I decided to rate this place highly! More...

A super cute cafe in Long Beach that makes for a great dining option if you're in the area.  The waitstaff is all very friendly and they make you feel right at home when you get there.  We had made a reservation, but because it was a weekday and the restaurant is pretty large we honestly didn't need it.  We ended up getting the appetizer sampler, the cheese they light on fire (very fun) and the lamb chops.  Everything was solid overall.  My favorite item was actually one of the bites on the appetizer sampler which was a stuffed falafel that had gyro meat in it.  So much tastiness.  I would probably lean more into items like that if I were to come back. All in all a very solid option if you're looking for a spot to eat in Long Beach! More...

I've been going to George's for years (different locations although this is the closest to my house.)  The food has always been good.  I usually like to stop in with my family but this past Saturday evening (right in the middle of the dinner rush mind you) my wife and I were tired and my daughter had just fallen asleep so we decided to use postmates.Unfortunately there was a mix-up and the postmates delivery person only brought 1/3rd of the offer. I called the restaurant and the manager was understanding of my situation and very helpful and the correct order was sent to me.  The food was incredible; honestly best I've had.  I got the Gyro plate (delicious as always) with a side of veggies/salad, wife ordered the chicken spanachi which stole the show, and we ordered the combo appetizer (dolmathes were the highlight; different than any you've likely had.)  The manager and delivery driver really went out of their way to fix a problem and make me feel important; something not that common anymore.  Food: 10/10Service: 10/10Georges you definitely have and kept a customer for life out of me - thanks to your staff and amazing food.  Sorry for any headaches my order caused - next time we order George's I'll phone in takeout and pick it up as Postmates/Doordash/etc is causing headaches lately everywhere.

So this is a review for my fellow vegetarians out there because obviously I didn't eat any meat and all of my meat eating friends seem to love this place. I got the falafel and I am sad to say that I'm not really a fan. It tasted so dry and they didn't have any sauce to go with it that I ended up asking for tzatziki just so I could taste something while I ate it... I will say, the fiery feta is pretty tasty if you just want something small to get you through a dinner with friends. This being said, I gave them four stars instead of three because I think they can handle many big groups fairly well. More...

He suggested the lamb chops which btw were deliciously tender and juicy and my husband can't wait to go back and get the 8 piece plate(haha). I ordered the lamb gyros I believe, sorry bad with names.
