• Southern american • Long Beach

Booked 1 time today

A sports bar and lounge inspired by Las Vegas with 30 large TV's including a 25 foot TV wall for all the action. Moneyline has a large sports ticker with all of the spreads and scores so you don't miss a thing. The food menu is an elevated version of what a typical sports bar would have. For example, instead of "mozz sticks", we make fresh mozzerela in house, cut it, bread it, fry it and plate it with roasted heirloom tomatoes and a basil pesto. Our burger is a high quality mix of beef topped with gruyere, bourbon carmelized onions, special sauce, and served with hand cut fries. The chef also prepares an amazing Steak Frittes with a butcher's cut steak, with a brandy peppercorn sauce. The cocktail list was curated to give an ode to Las Vegas. The space offers outdoor dining as well which is ideal for the beach town. When big games are on, the atmosphere will be electric. When they're not, diners can still expect music to be on and the vibe to be right.
