Los Angeles-based Bacari Restaurants has acquired the iconic former Michaels restaurant, a two-story restaurant building located at 5620 2nd St in the Belmont Shores area of Long Beach. Bacari will renovate the building and open their latest location, Bacari Long Beach, as another one of their highly regarded Mediterranean restaurants.
Restaurants currently owns and operates eight restaurants in the Los Angeles area including three in the city of Los Angeles as well as Silverlake, Culver City, Beverly Hills, Glendale and Sherman Oaks with more coming selectively through Southern California and soon Las Vegas. Bacari Long Beach is scheduled to open in 2026.
Bacari Restaurants was founded in 2008 by brothers Danny and Robert Kronfli as well as Chef Lior Hillel. The menu includes a wide range of Mediterranean-inspired small plates as well as a curation of small-production wines, eclectic beers, and unique craft cocktails and mocktails. Bacari Long Beach will feature a unique rooftop bar/dining area with a retractable covering. It will also offer live music from local artists serving dinner every day and brunch on Saturday and Sunday.
“Bacari is focused on creating a place for the community can come together to enjoy good food while being entertained and enjoying the company of others,” said Robert Kronfli, Co-Founder Bacari Restaurants. “Bacari Long Beach will be unique with its décor and ambience while offering the same great food of our other locations.”
