We took our parents here on a Saturday afternoon to enjoy the great harbor views. We sat indoors in a comfortable booth which we had reserved on-line that same day. Service was good and the server was friendly. Their salmon sandwich and Mesquite shrimp entrees were delicious and are highly recommended. Not only were the shrimp large in size and super fresh, but the sides which included potato puree, rice, and house chips were all very good. My salmon sandwich was impressively delicious as well. My husband's crab sandwich was just okay. We also ordered the Sorbet Trio (passion fruit, coconut, raspberry) and the Butter Cake for dessert. The butter cake was delicious with one big scoop of vanilla ice cream on the top and I also ordered Latte which I wouldn't recommend as it was small and seemed to be mostly milk foam. At five dollars, it was not properly made and not worth it. Overall, the restaurant itself is a great choice to have family gathering or a celebratory event.

Friends took me to Parkers' for my birthday. This was a great choice. The service was excellent; the view of the port and Palos Verdes Hill in the distance is lovely. But the food is just great! The clam chowder is up to Boston standards; the Chilean sea bass was grilled to perfection and the Cobb salad tasty.

Beautiful day, the reflection of the sun on the water. Today was my first experience at this restaurant. I will be back. Seating outside is comfortable and the view was lovely. I had claim chowder and a salmon sandwich, homemade chips and camomile tea. The menu is broad if you are a fish lover like I am. The prices were seaside comparable but the view was priceless. I got my parking validated and you pay $2 instead of $8. But you have to have cash! Just an FYI.

Despite having reservations 2 weeks in advance, we were placed in an overflow room without any decor or ambiance. The glass doors were locked so there was no way to get fresh air or to take a picture. I was told this room used to be used for banquets. ( this room did not compare to the actual restaurant dining area ). Service was slow . The mixed grill was a small serving for the price. The crab cake was more of a spoon of filling in the plate.

We had reservations at Noon and asked for a table inside we were seated outside in a very hot area & didn't get any service until about 20 minutes later.
We were told there was a mix-up and then later in the dinner, a busboy dropped calamari all over my sister's back along with the aoli. No one ever apologized and we had to clean up the mess ourselves I would never go back here again.
The food was mediocre , the service was terrible.

had a 5:30 dinner reservation. showed up at 4:45 and figured we would sit in the bar. not open inside. outside it was gale force winds and chilly. asked about eating early and they told us that they didn't start serving until 5pm but there were people outside eating. overall felt like the hostess' were unengaged and not interested. Got a bad vibe so went elsewhere...

Went to Long Beach with my wife on weekend gateway. This was our first time going to this restaurant and we are happy we did. The food was amazing but expensive but well worth it. I got the surf and turf. I got the 16oz Bone-In Ribeye Steak with mashed potatoes and steamed asparagus and I added the 6oz Lobster Tail. The stake was well seasoned and cooked perfectly. The lobster was cooked just right and also well seasoned. I was impressed. My wife had the Mix Grill and it came with shrimp, scallops, and first. She loved it all and finished everything on her plate The views from the restaurant are wonderful. You can see the Queen Mary and Rainbow Harbor. The staff was friendly and the restaurant in very nice. It does get very busy So I recommend making reservations. We would and will eat here again.

We returned to this restaurant after several years. We regularly went to this place and had excellent memories of it.
Quality, refined and high-level cuisine and a warm and romantic environment. Unfortunately only the warm and romantic environment remained but the cuisine we had in our memories unfortunately no longer exists.
Of the two fish dishes ordered we sent one back almost intact and of the other we send back all the sides. The fact that the (kind) waitress didn't ask for explanations makes me think that this is now a habit.
The cost was definitely disproportionate for the quality of food served.
I strongly advise against it.

When I asked friends about Parker's Lighthouse I received a "Meh," response, but we tried this massive Long Beach landmark for a special occasion and were pleasantly surprised. One big deal is that they answer their phone! Imagine that! Our server Greg C was excellent and informative (he's been there 28 years), and we were given the requested table outside on Patio # 6 (they have heating lamps), a bay- shaped area with a great view of the Queen Mary and harbor. Prepare to pay for your view. I had heard that the food was mediocre, but my seafood mixed grill ($49) and my wife's fish & chips ($24) were delicious, The $15.50 straight-up Martini was skimpy at best. Parker's Lighthouse claims to have the "Best Happy Hour in Long Beach," Monday through Friday, 3-6, so we'll give that a try and report back soon.

If you are looking for above average food with scenic views and outstanding service, I highly recommend Parker’s. Starting with the fresh baked sourdough rolls with real butter, followed by a house salad with homemade red wine vinaigrette and for dinner the fresh fish or Cajun spiced chicken are excellent choices. The mashed SWEET potatoes that are served with the chicken were very tasty and full of flavor.
The dining experience was one where there was no rush at anytime during the meal.

You're on the water with a fresh and clean ocean breeze (even in the middle of the wildfires, at least on the day we were there), tables are spaced VERY comfortably apart, and heaters take care of any chill.
Went simple with the fish and chips, but every aspect of the dish was about as perfect as it could get without trying too hard either. Husband had the seafood linguini which he also rated very highly. Portions were good: not too big or small.
The key lime pie was a SURPRISING delight (although too big for the two senior citizens to finish). Kind of an airy mound of mouse with just the right edge of lime to it; not your typical key lime pie at all but not even remotely disappointing.

Mike was our attentive server . We ordered Seafood Cobb which is enough for 2 people easily and Red King Crab Roll...excellent. My Husband had the 16 oz. Rib Eye Steak (who orders meat at a Seafood Restaurant) Surprise...it was delicious and cooked to perfection. You must have the TollHouse Pie for Dessert...makes for happy faces all around. Love the Water Front Elegance. Go!

Can I say first off a huge shout out to the staff here. Our waitress was unbelievable. We had a flight out at 3pm and needed to be gone by 1pm and they were fantastic.
Food here was great, very tasty, big portions and most importantly fresh.
I had the oysters (east and west coast), the "I love you" roll which was amazing and we had the calamari which was more than enough for 2 people never mind one and was well cooked.
Credit were credit is due I couldn't really fault this place. I can't think of one negative and the waitress who served us was easily one of the best I have encountered in 30 years. Great job guys, I hope to return one day very soon, thank you for a great meal.

The food is great. However, the service for the cost is below our expectations. We had an extra person at our table for a drink and appetizer, and multiple staff came up to talk to us about if we should be moving to another table. Suddenly our server changed and our service dropped down. We waited over half an hour for our entrée. As well, parking validation is ridiculous. We got $1.60 off the parking validation and still had to pay almost $10. Not sure it’s worth the cost for the experience.

Delicious lunch, Summer Salad and Arugula Strawberry Salad. Besides that, the service was great. We were near a group of six that were extremely loud and when we asked to move, the wait staff graciously found another spot for us. I would definitely eat there again.
