Long Beach Current, "Voted by Long Beach State students as the “Best Place to Blow Your Whole Paycheck,” the award-winning steakhouse prides themselves on cooking customers’ steaks to perfection."[3]
LAist, "If you want to be treated like Frank Sinatra would have been, this might be the restaurant for you."[4]
Los Angeles Times (1995), "Steaks are no slouches either. All prime, corn-fed Midwestern beef, they’re served on platters that sizzle with butter without swimming in it. Kansas City strip is fabulous, charred a true medium rare, with a deep aged taste that gets better near the bone. The meaty T-bone is my next choice."[5]
Los Angeles Times (1997), "With its dark wood wainscoting, burgundy leather booths and crisp white tablecloths, 555 East is a clubby haven for enjoying a martini or bourbon on the rocks, followed by a good steak and bottle of Cabernet.[6]
Los Angeles Times (2024), "After 40 years, 555 East proves it still knows how to throw a party with its New Year’s Eve spread. Long Beach’s beloved steakhouse is offering a four-course prix-fixe menu."[7]
