Excellent retaurant, great staff and wonderful food. Thrilled the banquet manager "Wendy" is gone. Her attitude was downright nasty and her ability to follow through was zero.
Pros: quality of food
Cons: wendy parker

Honeys Birthday 12-30-08
We were on our way to our usual Mexican resturant for Carolyns birthday ( Acapulco) when at the last minute I remember reading recently the local monthly Alhambra new paper about Fronteras. I had driven by it on Main street before and it had a A food rating and looked inviting. It was a lot closer so we took a drive by to check it out. It pleased her eyes and belive me Carolyn hates everything so what the heck lifes like a box of chocolate.
Parking was a breeze and by the way Main Street Alhambra is a great kept secret for night life. We entered and were greeted by a very friendly hostes. We were seated right away and ordered a couple of margaritas including complementry salsa and chips. Large bowl of very fresh salsa which was really good, the chips were those red white and blue chips so so but not greasy. If they changed the type of chips and Gucamole it would make this resturant perfect. I ordered steak Fajitas and she ordered taquitos both were of obvious freshness and excellent quality very sweet veggies and superb beans and rice! On a side note the bus boy which I hate to call him was absoutley delightfull please give that man a raise he was as good as is gets!
The atmosphere was very nice in an old brick building it was extreamly clean, quaint and classy. They also comped us a couple of drinks and did not even know it was her B-day. The manager was first class and a great ambassador for this establishment. I am a hot sauce conisuer who has traveled the globe and thier picante sauce is to die for. It's not for the weak or timid but if you like it hot it is second to none. It's like a butter wine hanabaro sauce very unique and very tasty hot. Carolyn loved it and so did I, Fronteras you get the best advertisement of all (word of mouth) I'm telling everybody about you and I can't wait to come back again.
Wow what a geat dinning experence, loved it!
Pros: Parking, Service, Atttitudes, Freshness you can taste, Very clean, Picante sauce
Cons: Middle of the road chips and gucamole

Good selection of seafood. What we love the most is Oyster Rockefeller's with fresh bread.. The place can get pretty busy at lunch and dinner time. The prices may be a little high, but the food is worth it..

Tracht's, which is the sister restaurant to Jar up in Los Angeles, serves up comfort food better than any place in Long Beach. The food is amazing. The pot roast is one of the signature dishes, but really you can't go wrong with anything your order. Appetizers and dessert are all outstanding as well. It's pricey and it's ala carte, which chaps my hide, but once you taste it, it's more than worth it. Service is great too.

Where do you go to eat when you are on vacation in a new city?? After a full day of up and down the coast with a 9 year old and a 4 year old, from the Zoo to the beach; Mom and Dad needed a place to relax, sample the local cuisine, and recharge. Where to go!?! We found the PCG listed on our GPS unit. Modern Technology! After an easy drive to the restaurant, we were pleasantly presented with a gem. Easy parking too! The hostess was great, addressing the kids also. We sat in the rear, deciding on not having the outdoor seating which looked relaxing in the courtyard. Music was great, excellent decor and dining room feel for our new experience, a few date tables, a party of 10, another family or four and the other tables just beginning to fill up. Our waiter was excellent. Greeted us right away. My wife had one of the specialty cocktails, and it was fabulous. I settled for a local brew, recommended by our attentive waiter. Nick was great! The kids were very happy with their selection from the kids menu AND it came out with our appetizers as suggested by our waiter, before we even asked. BONUS POINTS!$$! We had the tartare and the Hawaiian BBQ skewers. Both were plated very well with the menu description, and the waiter's recommendation being spot on. The wonton crisps were a little thick, but the taste and combinations were excellent. Not just a garnish, the greens and avocado were an tasty mix. Our dinner entrees were also just as appealing, filled with flavor and color, with the Ahi tuna and the pan-seared sea bass. Both were cooked, seasoned, plated well. Tastes were exciting and fresh. We decided to pass on the desserts as the kids were exhausted. We were extremely satisfied with all aspects of our meal, and the little extra attention for kids to make them feel special. An excellent meal that made our dining excursion while on vacation in San Diego a success. I was surprised not to see more reviews.
Pros: service, family friendly, ambience, parking, decor, overall, tastes
Cons: not enough time for another visit

I really like this place as a lunch spot. They put their own little twist to American food favorites like chicken and biscuits or cobb salads. I also like the sandwiches here because they tend to be very healthy. The portobello burger is my favorite. I also appreciate the HUGE portions they dole out here. I have yet to finish a plate of food there, but I always order up dessert. Last time I was here, I got a big chunky slice of white chocolate raspberry truffle cheesecake, and it was divine.
