Prospector Family Restaurant & Cocktail Lounge

User Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

One of the best in "Lots-O-Mow, For Little Dough" places anywhere. This Long Beach icon has been serving it to you hot and cheap since 1966. They offer complete meals with soup & salad, meal, br4ead and desert.

They even have 2 all you can eat evenings. The Last Wednesday of every month is "All You Can Eat Beef Ribs" with all the fixings and extras. The last Thursday of every month is "All You Can Eat Speghetti and Meat Sauce" with all the trimmings also. this one used to include a small glass of red wine with it. Both are priced under $10.00!

The current owner is Luis. You can catch him tending bar most afternoons and evenings till about 9pm. He's the happy, laughing, joking Hispanic gentleman shooting the breeze, or a dice game for drinks. As a Hispanic man myself, it's good to see a comrade in business doing well.

Their portions are not only generous, but so well priced. You get a complete meal. If you choose one of the amazing daily specials, you will get a hearty bowl of soup, a large salad, a great meal that includes veggies, a large slice of garlic/butter bread, and a small desert to top it all off.

Meals can vary from Chicken Fried Steak, To Red Snapper, To Fillet Mignon, To Prime Rib and Lobster. They also have a complete lunch menu, small portion meals, and Children Plates for the we folks in the family. You will find something for everyone.

Great "Knots Berry Farm" like atmosphere. Great full bar. They also have Kareoke 2 times a week. Some of the best in local bands take care of the rest of the evenings. They start the shows after 9:30pm in the bar area which is separate from the dinning room.

Ample parking in the rear with security cameras for your protection. Plenty of Digital Wide Screen Plasma TV's including a giant 6' digital projector screen for those must see special games. They even have a "Monday Night Football Bash" during the season with FREE Meat Chili/Hot Dogs with all the fixings for the hungry foot fans to munch on while drinking beer specials during the game.

So just to remind you once again, this is the place for the whole family, the hungry person, the sports fan, and the "I Just Want A Drink And Hand Out" kinda person. Something for everyone. Go and check it it. You will be pleasantly surprised.

They even have a website so you can check out their menu, specials and prices. Not many do all these things these days.
