Always a 5 star experience when I come here. The food is always delicious and the service is super friendly and fast. The staff is always upbeat and happy, which makes me smile being here because the vibe is contagious. A hidden gem is the brunch menu- the chilaquiles are so bomb! I believe they only have this menu available on the weekend till about 1 or 2. Some of the other breakfast and brunch spots can be busier on the weekends on 2nd, so this is a great lowkey alternative since many may not know about the brunch menu. read more

The sandwiches and Salad was excellent. Service was consistent, friendly and we were taken care of well. Seating was okay on wood chairs and tables, no booths. There is some outside dining available as well. It's a bit loud but we could still chat and hear each other. read more

If heaven had a pizza joint, this would be it. First off -- the Bacon Date Pizza? I wasn't sure what kind of relationship I was getting into, but it turned out to be the best date I've ever had. Sweet, salty, cheesy perfection. That balsamic drizzle? Chef's kiss. Then there's the White Margarita Pizza -- not to be confused with an actual margarita (though I wouldn't have complained). Garlic, thyme, and smoked mozzarella teamed up like the Avengers of flavor. I didn't know I needed this in my life, but now I can't go back. And the 15 Minute Wings -- they really meant 15 minutes, and they were worth every second. Crispy, spicy, sweet, and cooled down by that homemade blue cheese like a soothing post-spice therapy session. Our server was a total legend -- funny, fast, and somehow always there right when you needed something. Give that person a raise, a trophy, and maybe a pizza named after them. Long story short: I came. I ate. I rolled out in blissful food coma. 10/10, would unbutton my jeans here again. read more

Dined here on a Friday night around 4:45pm. It wasn't crowded so we were allowed to sit anywhere we wanted. To start, I had a Margarita and my husband ordered a beer. We are practically regular diners at Belmont Shore just about every weekend and we couldn't believe it took us this long to try out Simmzy's. Our server, offered up suggestions on his faves and we took his advice. We ordered the 15 minute wings and the white margarita pizza. The wings were breaded and I think they deep fried it and covered it in sauce because it was crunchy/crispy and the sauce wasn't spicy at all. The blue cheese dip it came with was a nice accompaniment. It was good! And so was the pizza. We'd come back again. read more

So crazy that I never knew about this place on 2nd. My boyfriend and I came here Sunday afternoon. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and told it was open seating. Once we sat down, our waiter, Ari, started taking down our drink orders and was super helpful, walking me through the drink menu and the brunch menu because I had my heart set on breakfast food. If you know me and my reviews, you know I'm a brunch girl. I don't eat beef or pork, so I was told that I could basically sub the meat for any protein I had a taste for, so I went with chicken, which was pretty good--spicy and savory. My boyfriend went with the best damn French toast (that thang was huge I had I forgot to snap a picture) and an Island Time for his drink. The ambiance was a good vibe; all the crew members were nice and welcoming. Parking sucks because it's 2nd Street, duh. We'll be back soon, though. read more

We've been regular customers here for a long time, and the only reason I'm leaving this review is because of Bella. Every single time she's our server, the experience is noticeably worse than when anyone else takes care of us. She always seems annoyed, short with us, and honestly makes us feel like we're an inconvenience. What's frustrating is that we watch her be friendly and attentive with other tables, so it's hard not to feel like we're being treated differently. Our last visit was the final straw. We arrived just a few minutes before happy hour. A good server would have simply let us know happy hour was about to start so we could wait to order. Instead, nothing was mentioned. Our food and drinks weren't even brought out until after happy hour had already begun. When we politely asked if the happy hour pricing could be honored since everything came out afterward, Bella immediately said no and didn't even offer to ask a manager if an exception could be made. The issue isn't just the happy hour pricing--it's the attitude. Customer service is about making guests feel welcome and trying to help when reasonable. Every other server we've had here has been great, which is why we keep coming back. Bella is the only reason our visits leave us frustrated. We love this place and would hate to stop coming because of one employee, but after having the same negative experience with Bella over and over again, management should really look into it. read more

Called in tonight to place a takeout order. I live nearby and eat on Second Street a lot, including here in the past. First call got answered and then immediately hung up on. Called back a few minutes later and asked to place a takeout order, which I've done before. The person on the phone was a bit short and said they weren't doing takeout because there was a two-hour wait. What was confusing is that online ordering was still open, and when I walked by shortly after, the restaurant was only about 3/4 full with some open tables and nobody was waiting to be seated. I prefer calling so I can get a more accurate ETA, since apps are usually just estimates, but it felt like they just didn't want to take the order. Ended up grabbing takeout from Open Sesame instead -- it was completely packed, but they were still friendly and willing to accommodate. read more

Stopped by to have lunch at Simmzys because they used to have this amazing charred caesar salad with shrimp. They took that off the menu so we split the chicken salad with walnuts and apples. All of the toppings were fresh and flavorful. The chicken tortilla soup and Baja fish taco were good but not the best you've ever had. Service is extremely slow and no one comes to greet you or seat you at the door when you arrive. Our waiter wasn't attentive, we had to get up and go to the bar to ask for an alternative salad dressing option and the restaurant wasn't crowded at all. Chill and casual environment inside. read more

Saw the high reviews and placed an order online. Parking is limited to sidewalk parking. You're lucky if you can snag a spot close by. Other than that take in the ocean breeze and enjoy a stroll. Large space with bar, interior and patio seating. Place wasn't too crowded upon arrival. Greeted when we walked in, picked up our order and was on our way. Provided with utensils and napkins. I wish they would've offered some chili flakes and parm but the flavor was excellent. Flavorful juicy roasted tomatoes were the saving grace. The crust was a little on the denser, chewy side. Maybe it wasn't like a fresh dough. We didn't mind it though as it was more of like a flatbread. The garlic, smoked cheese, fresh basil and roasted tomatoes made up for its flaws. Would visit again to give it another try. read more

I stopped by Simmzy's on 2nd Street and had an awesome experience. It's a casual, beachy gastropub with great energy and a solid menu of burgers, tacos, salads, and craft beer. I was greeted warmly by the hostess and seated quickly with minimal wait. I ordered the white Margherita pizza and the chicken apple walnut & goat cheese salad--both were flavorful, fresh, and generously portioned. As a bonus, they surprised me with their 15-minute wings, which were a hit! Everything was delicious and well-balanced. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and want good vibes with even better food. read more

Love this place, been here mutiple times and it never disappoints! We always start off with the caramelized Brussel Sprouts because they are to die for.

We were in the area as we walked on 2nd st a Breakfast place wait was a little long. Came to Simmzy's walked in and was told we could pick our table. I ordered a cup of Hot Tea on this Cold morning. The Hot Tea was a nice drink to have. Started with an order of 15-minute Wings. For lunch, I ordered the Billionaire Burger, with American Wagyu 5-year-old Beef, with Bacon. It was good the Bacon was undercooked. The 1/2 and 1/2 Haystack was ok, the potatoes were cut thin as such they were overcooked and hard. The Apple Donut was crusty on the outside not soft. Overall it was a good Lunch. read more

Nice spot for a casual dinner. Went with a large party to this spot with a reservation on a Saturday night. Great: Bacon Date pizza - the marriage of bacon and dates makes a very nice sweet and salty flavor. The pizza is very rich and has a creamy sauce. A bit tough on the crust. Nevertheless, high marks! Grown up chicken fingers - the most tender tenders I've had from a restaurant. They're made of chicken thighs which adds juiciness. The sauce it comes with is also very good. Wonderfully executed. Carne asada fries - the fries here are shoestring, and that helps prevent them from getting soggy even when coated with all the toppings in this dish. Good: Nachos with chicken - Thick style tortilla chips. Similar to the asada fries and well put together, but I would get the fries over the nachos, which is why I put this in a slightly lower tier. Chicken was also a little dry. Still very solid! I had a house hazy IPA to accompany the food, which was delicious. The staff accommodated our large party very well, and even helped celebrate an engagement in our party. Big ups to the service! read more

Another great spot on 2nd street. Plenty of good beer options, good cocktails and delicious food. Definitely check out their 15 minute wings they are bomb. The pizza is good, crispy crust and good topping ratio. Their burgers are also very tasty and the patty has great seasoning. And if you're up for it order a margaritas pitcher! The service is great, everyone is very attentive including the manager. The ambiance is casual and it's a good spot for groups and kids. (Unfortunately didn't capture any food pictures) read more

It took awhile for us to have our order taken and we weren't provided with water like the rest of the tables until we asked for them. We didn't receive our drinks after about 10 min. After we received our food we were not attended to again for the whole time we were there. We noticed that one of the managers was talking to other tables around us and not to us, even after making eye contact. Not only that, he was waping off tables, refilling water and checking on tables beside us. Ambiance was ok. read more

I rarely leave negative reviews, but our experiences with Bella V. have been consistently disappointing. Every time she's our server, we end up waiting forever just to get basic service. She rarely checks on the table, seems uninterested in helping, and communicates with one-word answers that come across as rude and dismissive. Our food has arrived cold multiple times when she's been our server, and we often have to flag someone else down because she disappears for long stretches. Hospitality requires attentiveness and a welcoming attitude, and unfortunately, we experienced neither. We've had much better service from other staff, but whenever Bella is our server, the experience is consistently poor. I hope management addresses this because it's enough to make us reconsider coming back. read more

I have been going to Simmzy's for a long time. First Manhattan Beach a couple of times, and for the past 7-8 years here at home in Long Beach. It started out as a place I enjoyed visiting. Some nice takes on classic American staples in a fun looking place. It is a classic tale of a restaurant just trying less and less each visit. The staff are poorly trained. If you are having to ask for the cutlery needed for what you have ordered (I am not a neanderthal who thinks a fork is all you need) it is a giveaway on this. ps I needed a normal knife not a massive steak knife for what I had ordered. When they chose to come and check in with you seems more to do with them being bored than them actually having a reason to do so. More importantly though, the food is getting worse and worse. This weekend my son wanted to go. Gone are the fun pixisticks we used to play with while waiting. Anyway we both ordered off their special Sunday brunch menu. I had the most disappointing chilaquiles I have ever eaten. So over sauced it was basically a bowl of spicy green vinegar. While the eggs and carnitas were ok (carnitas dry as a bone) I couldn't eat any of the chips underneath and left hungry. Two more things to share: 1. There is a review with my first name and Initial (Ian J) from Sunday, the day I was in there that states "Very good food and atmosphere plus there are tvs for sports watching so I recommend it." Well that isn't me but it sounds like they are somehow generating false reviews for those paying through the Sunday App? The likelihood of two Ian Js in there on Sunday (there were no people in there at all on a busy Sunday afternoon on Second Street)? 2. The totally disappointing generic response from the restaurant: Hi, Thanks for taking the time to give us this feedback. We're disappointed we didn't meet your expectations this time around. We've taken your comments on board and hope to welcome you back. Best, Barry read more

Hello, I live in the area and Simmzys is by far my favorite spot. I rave about it to all the time to my friends and family and go there constantly. Especially the bar area with friends and my significant other. Unfortunately yesterday (10/04) we were at the bar around 5-6pm and it was a miserable experience. It was busy but it's been really busy before and it was always fun and the crew generically awesome. But yesterday the crew were what seemed like at each other throats. Visually upset and flustered and it was severely affecting the mood and service. It was uncomfortable and we felt bad even asking for basics like napkins. The bill also turned out to be wrong which never got fixed. I got overcharged. I actually intended to stay longer and spend more but it was so uncomfortable seeing the crew huff and puff and throw tantrums that we just couldn't wait to get out. Never ever did I think I'd feel like that at my favorite spot on a Friday after a long day at work. read more

I've been here on multiple occasions and have attached pictures from those visits. If I kept digging for pictures I would definitely have more. Deliciously crispy and juicy wings and menu options!! Yummy beer selection Great happy hour on the pizza (half off) and beers I really wish they would bring back the tamarind wings! I understand they have the 15 minute wings but having the option to get tamarind wings would be awesome. You can't get anything like it around here. Another unique thing here would be the Brussels sprouts. I come here and get the Brussels sprouts, every single time. It's got lemon sauce with capers and sardines or anchovies idk but it's delicious. I love it with all my heart. Best Brussels sprouts I've ever tried. Also for the ahi poke tostada, it comes with this yummy pickled ginger. Great stuff. Overall the restaurant is beautiful and wonderfully located, the big windows make it great on a warm night. The vibes are always good and the servers are kind as well. Got a complimentary chocolate mousse one night and was soo happy. Thank you Simmzy's! I recommend all my friends go here if they're in the area. read more

Yeah don't accidentally leave anything here. They will let their employees steal your things. Left my designer sunglasses here after dinner one night (I only forgot them because our server gave me and my friend a Dogz hat that we ended up putting on and wearing to the next bar) love her for that Savannah 10/10. Anyways, I called after realizing I didn't have them in my purse. They said they couldn't find them, that was cool I was willing to take the L on them because obviously my fault I left them there somebody could've walked by and swiped them from the table. 5 minutes later one of their employees calls me back and said they had them there, described them to me, and confirmed those were them. Couldn't grab them that day because I was out with my daughter and her friend, I sent my husband to grab them after work, all of a sudden they're not there anymore. Apparently they stuck them in their "lost and found" and they disappeared, and they're not liable for any loss. Honestly they're such losers for that and I should file a police report just for the principle of it all. They went out of their way to call ME to tell ME they had my property just for someone, who likely works there, to take my stuff. read more

Nice corner restaurant with old school beach diner decor and friendly service. We only stopped by for drinks, so I can't say anything about the food, but the pizza seemed to be a popular menu item.

They have all gender restrooms and the parking is in the street metered parking. read more

Enjoyed my first visit. I had the Billionaire Burger, and really enjoyed it. Next time I'm going to try the same set up - bun, bacon, etc - with a non-Waygu patty. I want to know if the Waygu burger with all that stuff is like drinking a great bourbon with ginger ale! Excellent burger nevertheless. Service was attentive. Our server Steven was very cordial and happy to give recommendations whether it be their burgers or pizza. We sat at the bar which was comfortable. Not too loud but maybe that was because it was a Monday night without football , . I'll return. read more
