Our latest edition's Showcase section features profiles of six businesses on Long Beach Boulevard in Bixby Knolls. Here is profile #1:

Phil Trani's Fine Food & Spirits

Phil Trani’s has been a staple on Long Beach Boulevard since the restaurant opened in 1989. The youngest of “the infamous Trani brothers,” Phil Trani eventually decided to open his restaurant after his five older brothers sold the family business, Trani’s Majestic, in San Pedro. “I had to go find a job. . . . I was pouring concrete and doing construction and tending bar at night and taking care of my kids,” he recalled. But Trani was quickly prodded back into the restaurant business. Former Long Beach Councilmember Don Phillips first told Trani about an available restaurant property at 3490 Long Beach Blvd., where his business still resides today. “I didn’t want to get back into the restaurant business. And then one of the infamous coaches at USC told me I needed to get back into my environment. And that was Marv Goux,” Trani recalled. “He was an inspiration to me, and so I did it.” Since then, Phil Trani’s has become known as a hot spot for sports stars. Trani takes pride in the prime meats and fresh fish selection on his menu. “Everything is good. And I try to stay basic,” he said, calling the vibe of the place “old school.” For more information, visit www.philtrani.com.
