Located in Shoreline Village, a touristy collection of harbor-oriented shops and eateries, this restaurant’s three-story building includes an actual working lighthouse. It offers striking views of Long Beach Harbor (including its neighbor, the Queen Mary oceanliner) from the cavernous dining room, outdoor patio and lively bar. The emphasis is on fresh fish---usually mesquite-grilled and served with a choice of sauces on the side---but you can also order steaks and chicken dishes. As you might expect from the theme concept, this is not gourmet fare, but you can find some enjoyment in simple pleasures here, such as a tasty rendition of oysters Rockefeller, a bucket of addictive steamed clams, and fish ‘n’ chips. For dessert, the Key lime pie is a popular choice. The third-story Galley Bar shakes up such specialty drinks as the Cadillac margarita and Long Beach ice tea and features regional and imported beers to accompany bar menu items like sushi, fish tacos and ahi sliders. The wine list, globally inspired and attractively priced, is one of the other pleasant surprises here.
