Although the Laurel as Luncheonette in its title, its menu is definitely that of a Diner's. They're open for breakfast, lunch dinner, and late - so no matter what time your looking for a good home cooked meal at a really reasonable price (because Long Beach has some pricey places) this is a great place that all the locals go to. My favorite foods at the Laurel are: 1. Breakfast, the pumpkin pancakes (they rock - much tastier than IHOP's). 2. For lunch: I really love their Lido Spring Mix salad with Chicken (I love the pieces of blue cheese, granny smith apples and the raspberry vinaigrette dressing) 3. And for dinner I'm torn between their Lamb Shank Youvetsi over Orzo special (only on Thursday nights) and the ribeye steak topped with melted blue cheese butter (yeah I love blue cheese) along with a cold Sam Adams brew. I love this place. Yeah it might be old (I think its been there since 1932) but the guys who own it run a tight ship over there. Its deifinitely the best value in Long Beach.
