River Jetty Restaurant Group partners, Hollywood producer Joseph ‘McG’ Nichol and restaurateur Jordan Otterbein, are pleased to announce the grand opening of A PCH on Wednesday, July 19, 2023. Located within Long Beach’s lively outdoor shopping center, 2ND & PCH, at 6460 E Pacific Coast Hwy unit D200, A PCH will be open daily for lunch and dinner and brunch on the weekend.
Traveling up the coast, A PCH is River Jetty Restaurant Group’s first concept outside of Orange County. Located on the second level of 2ND & PCH, Long Beach’s hub for best-in-class dining and shopping, guests can take in panoramic views overlooking Alamitos Bay from the 2,500-square-foot enclosed and weatherproofed patio.
“Born and raised in Southern California, we’re excited to share our world-class fine-dining destination with a new SoCal neighborhood,” said Jordan Otterbein, managing partner of River Jetty Restaurant Group. “We pride ourselves on delivering consistently excellent hospitality and culinary offerings while tailoring each concept to the unique community in which it is located. We can’t wait for Long Beach to discover their new favorite hangout.”
With five Pacific Coast Highway locations, River Jetty Restaurant Group are experts in channeling laid-back coastal luxury into the design and welcoming atmosphere of their restaurants. Step inside the 5,400 square-foot space to find an eye-catching brass central bar with 18 seats, cozy red and blue banquets, unique curated artwork and modern fixtures. A glass partition will divide the dining room and kitchen which houses a Wood Stone pizza oven and pasta extruder for fresh, uniquely shaped pastas. A visit to A PCH isn’t complete without a stop at River Jetty’s signature vintage photo booth offering complimentary prints to commemorate the epicurean experience.
The culinary team will be led by Executive Chef Louis Capiz who was elevated from Chef de Cuisine, his role at A Crystal Cove since its opening in 2022. “I’m thrilled for the opportunity to help open another restaurant with River Jetty Restaurant Group and to step into my new role as Executive Chef,” commented Capiz. “I’m committed to upholding our restaurants’ standards of using only the finest quality ingredients and highlighting fresh, seasonal flavors throughout the year.”
Chef Capiz will present a seasonally inspired modern-American menu showcasing River Jetty Restaurant Group’s most-loved dishes of land and sea along with a selection of cocktails exclusive to the Long Beach location.
