advice on good restaurants near lb?

I live in the Long Beach and dont really get out much, at least for fine dining or just taking a girl out for a nice relaxed lunch/dinner. I dont know of many places that will provide a nice atmosphere for food and a conversation and is easy on the wallet (college student). i know of bj's in cerritos, but thats about it.

anyone know of any places in long beach? a nice view of something will also be great. and have something we can go do nearby?

i've heard that theres a vegetarian restaurant where dont even realize you're not eating meat! does anyone know where it is?

any feedback will be appreciated.

thanks

+3 on Roscoes and you may want to make your way down to Pine st.

Alegrias for Spanish food(Sevillas) is a little more expensive.(pine street)
Green field Churrascaria. Brazilian buffet cost about 26 p/p but well worth it.
Shore house cafe is somewhat inexpensive for what you get.(2nd st)
