Dinner in Long Beach
A fine dining restaurant in the Arts District: seasonal California cuisine from Executive Chef Danny Le, champion of the 2026 Long Beach Grand Prix Fixe, and a wine list from an Advanced Sommelier. Wednesday through Sunday, 5:00 to 9:30 PM.
A Long Beach Restaurant for Evenings That Matter
Chez Bacchus is a considered dining room on East 4th Street, in the heart of Long Beach’s Arts District.
The kitchen cooks farm-to-table California cuisine with French technique, and the menu moves with the season, down to the mushrooms grown right here in Long Beach. Executive Chef Danny Le came to Chez Bacchus from Napa Rose, and in September 2026 he won the Long Beach Grand Prix Fixe, an eight-chef competition decided by diners’ votes.
Whether it is a date night, an anniversary, a birthday dinner or the evening you have been meaning to plan, the room is set for it: white linen, a wine list worth asking about, and a team that takes its time with you.
The Filet, Done Properly
For the steak dinner, the kitchen serves a 9 oz. Creekstone Filet Mignon with broccolini, celery root, onion soubise and beef jus. Ask the team for a pairing from the wine list.
Seafood instead? Diver scallops with Long Beach mushrooms, Skuna Bay salmon and charred Spanish octopus are on the menu now. See the full menu.
Behind the Pass
A Sommelier’s List, Poured Nightly
The wine program at Chez Bacchus is curated by our Proprietor, an Advanced Sommelier certified by the Court of Master Sommeliers, in collaboration with a Master Sommelier. Expect a list built for the food rather than for show, and a team happy to find the bottle, or the glass, that suits the evening.
Browse the wine list, join us for a wine dinner, or start the evening in the Lounge, where walk-ins are welcome.
Romantic Dinners, Birthdays and Anniversaries
Long Beach guests choose Chez Bacchus when the evening matters: a first date or a fortieth anniversary, a birthday dinner, a promotion, a proposal.
For something more personal, The Chef’s Table is a dinner composed by Chef Danny for 2 to 10 guests at a communal table on Friday and Saturday evenings. For a larger celebration, a rehearsal dinner or a company evening, our Director of Hospitality plans private events and catering. On weekend afternoons, there is Afternoon Tea.
What Diners Say
“Every single dish we had was excellent, but the rigatoni completely blew me away. The bread assortment deserves its own mention… This is a place that gets everything right. Food, service, atmosphere, all top notch.”
“All our dishes were well-executed and perfectly cooked: the octopus, wagyu tartare, lamb neck, and scallops were standouts, and the cocktails and wine were all on point. It was also cool to see how Chef Danny adds thoughtful and subtle riffs from Asian cuisine to the dishes…”
