Come here for brunch… - Edit
If you’re looking for vegan brunch, look no further. I shared the “Chive ‘BLT’”, the “Southern Fried Chick’n Sammie” and “Pickle Fries” with a friend. Everything was just so good. The restaurant is quite nice with a cool vibe. I would definitely come back to try some other stuff off their menu.

Good food and venue - Edit
The southern fried chick'n sammie was cooked well and the tangy southwest ranch it came with was really tasty. The smokey chipotle aioli dipping sauce that came with my tater tots was also great.

The Ideal Establishment - Edit
Now this is the kind of place I love to support. Small business owners that make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in. It's got a Gastropub vibe going on and a giant Ruth Bader Ginsburg mural on the wall. A couple blocks from the beach, so you could get it to go and go sit on a bench overlooking the coast. Food was great. Please keep this place in business by treating yourself to some delicious conscientiously prepared yumminess. Cheers!
Read morePros: Great customer service, Great Food, Small business
Cons: Nothing. They rule!, Need more locations.

Amazing! - Edit
Not your everyday munch pricing but not over the top expensive either, you’ll get that mid range but the food is top tier. I chose the chicken sandwich but envied my friend’s BLT. It’s LBC so be prepared to handle the parking situation.
Read morePros: Totally vegan, Tasty af, Choice atmosphere
Cons: Can be busy, Parking can be difficult

Best Brunch/Comfort Food for Vegans - Edit
My Mom and I came here an hour before closing time so it wasn’t crowded as I heard it can be. We both got Vietnamese iced coffees and an order of pickle fries to share. We were already beyond impressed before our main meals even came out. I ordered the Monte Cristo with a side of breakfast potatoes and my Mom ordered the BLT with a side of tater tots. We split our sandwiches half and half so we could try both. The BLT here is the best BLT I have ever had, but the Monte Cristo absolutely blew me away. I never tried a Monte Cristo before coming here and I recommend everyone does try it. It has the perfect balance of sweet and savory to satisfy any craving. I also have to mention that I really appreciate the use of paper straws and the overall absence of all things plastic and disposable besides a few recycled paper napkins. The staff here were some of the most lovely and funny people and really were the icing on the cake for our experience at The Wild Chive.

Best food I have ever eaten - Edit
I got the Stuffed French Toast….you guys, I don’t say this lightly, but it was GENUINELY the best food I’ve ever had. I’m a major foodie, I travel specifically for food, and have done so for as long as I can remember…and this French toast was PHENOMENAL. This French toast has ruined me for all other breakfast foods. And I’m okay with that.
Read morePros: Everything is vegan, Staff are charming as heck, SO. DELICIOUS.
Cons: A bit pricey.

Chives Gone Wild - Edit
Awesome and delicious American style vegan comfort junk food, plus their Vietnamese style iced coffee is fantastic. We ate the fried pickles, the stuffed french toast, the country style breakfast and the tempeh club sando and all were highly edible.
Read moreI asked and one of the owners is vegan and the chef is vegan, only a couple of the other staff were which is a shame because this would be a dream job for a vegan hospo worker. Vegan LGBT safe space, casual dining room, weekend brunch and super scrumptious junk food with dark green leafy bits mixed in for good measure. No jive, loved Wild Chive.
Pros: vegan chef, vegan junk food , vegan dining experience

Best vegan french toast - Edit
Stopped here with my girlfriend for lunch and its a really cute place, the decor is nice and staff are super friendly and attentive. We order the stuffed french toast, literally the best thing I've ever tasted, presentation was on point. We also order the Chicken and waffles, very tasty! Good amount of toppings and drinks selections. Highly recommend trying one of their iced coffees while you wait, they're very well done. Highlight of my trip to CA!

The atmosphere is wonderful. With the garage door open, it feels like you’re right by the water with the nice breeze blowing in.
Read moreForgot to take pictures of the food, it was just that delicious. My only critique is that I wish they had more gluten free options but the cornbread waffle monte cristo was delicious, nonetheless.
All staff was friendly, highly recommend making a reservation.

Best Brunch - Edit
I used to buy The Wild Chive's food when they are selling in pop up tents and once at a pop up at Portfolio Coffee House. The chef is pretty creative and the food has improved.
Read moreMy favorites at this visit were the Breakfast Banh Mi and Stuffed French Toast. The Banh Mi is a bit spicy due to the chili inside. The Stuffed French Toast is very good, filled with housemade Nutella type paste, fruits, and served with coco cream and maple syrup.
Husband ordered the Wendy's Breakfast Skillet. The tofu scramble, toast and gravy were yummy but the potatoes underneath it were salty. That's too bad, a little less salt would have been perfect.
I still gave 5 stars because my dish was yummy. We shared the Stuffed French Toast as a dessert.
The service was friendly and attentive. We would be back.
The restaurant is very airy. I like the big garage type glass door in the back which was opened, we enjoyed the fresh air from the ocean.
The only thing that is an issue could be parking. But this is Long Beach. #Veganuary
Pros: Tasty, Best brunch, Service
Cons: Parking, Part of the dish can be too salty

We had the breakfast skillet and chick'n + waffles. Both were pretty good, although we would definitely skip the vegan cheese, if we go back.
