    I truly wasn’t expecting much out of Simmzy’s but I ended up being really pleasantly surprised! The waitstaff took great care of us, and we were a big group so not their easiest table. I had the tuna burger and it was amazing! The tuna was perfectly cooked and the sauce tasted like teriyaki which was such a nice touch. Even the fries were good! I definitely want to come back and also try their other locations.

    I really love this restaurant and have been here multiple times. I usually get the Simmzys burger with sweet potato fries. The burger is really light and melts in your mouth. Service is always fast and you cannot beat the location and view for the price. They also have really nice cocktails in the coolest branded metal mugs. Definitely worth a try.

    Great juicy hamburgers and craft beer selections! While shopping in Manhattan Beach my family and I stopped here for lunch. My daughter had fish tacos and my granddaughter and I had burgers. Fresh squeezed lemonade and I had a blonde ale. Paired well with a burger and I loved they way they left the skin on their fries. It's healthier with the skin on. Unfortunately, the waiter took my food before I was done with it, so, I gave him a short tip. Other than that, I have no complaints. Nice seating area outside for a lovely, sunny day. And you can see the ocean from there. We enjoyed our California sunshine while having a good meal. I highly recommend this place.

    Simmzy’s has been around for quite awhile. Always known for their great beer selection, that hasn’t changed despite them bringing their own brand to the table. The food is always tasty and you just might see a VIP from time to time. They have a great location just a block away from the beach and now that they’ve taken over the parking spots, they have an ocean view from the outdoor seating. As for food, their 15 minute wings are really great but it’s only a mighty serving of 6 wings so make sure to order enough from the get go. I wouldn’t expect spectacular service because they are always so busy but they certainly get the job done and get it done quickly - almost like a diner feel of “what’s your order” to “here’s your check”. Alas, we were really only here for the beers and the cheers and we got plenty of both!

    Great food, ambiance, and service. Absolutely recommend the fries and wings. Corn was too sweet though. Burger was slightly undercooked and needed some kick. Otherwise, pricing was great for beachfront food in Manhattan Beach. Will go back for the wings and maybe some other appetizers.

    This is an amazing place! Three staff is so friendly that you feel like you were welcomed into a family. The food is delicious! And they have great beers on tap. Can't wait to go again.

    The staff, vibe, and location makes this one of the down-home favs of Manhattan Beach. 🌮🐟Grilled fish taco is quite good but could use more accompaniment. 🌮🐔Chicken tinga taco is good, but ask them not to butter the tortilla if you don’t want it to taste like a pancake. 🌮🥦Vegan cauliflower taco was cold and disappointing, but rumors are the owner loves it🤷🏽‍♂️ 🌮🐷Staff says customers love the pork tacos, but I haven’t tried it yet Most people get the burgers 🍔 and their salads 🥗 look solid—I’ll try those next.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Simmzy's in Manhattan Beach and I must say, it was an incredible experience from start to finish. Despite the initial wait time, the overall dining experience exceeded all expectations. Upon arrival, we were informed of a 45-minute wait, which was understandable given the bustling Saturday afternoon crowd. However, our patience was rewarded tenfold. The entire staff, from the welcoming hostess to our exceptional waiter, made us feel right at home. As a party of four, we unanimously decided to indulge in Simmzy's renowned burgers. And let me tell you, they were absolutely worth the hype. I opted for the Simmzy's burger with bacon and cheddar cheese, and it was a flavor explosion. The patty cooked to perfection, nestled on a toasted bun, created a mouthwatering combination that vanished within moments. Each bite was pure satisfaction. Our meals were consistently outstanding, and the entire party thoroughly enjoyed their choices. It's safe to say that we'll be returning to Simmzy's without hesitation. The restaurant's perpetual buzz is a testament to its culinary prowess. Be prepared for a wait, but trust me, it's well worth it. When it comes to parking, it can be a bit challenging in the area, especially on weekends. However, I recommend saving yourself the trouble by finding a parking lot a few blocks away. Embrace the opportunity for a pleasant stroll through this charming beach city, adding to the overall experience. In conclusion, Simmzy's in Manhattan Beach is an absolute gem for burger enthusiasts and food lovers alike. The friendly staff, delicious meals, and bustling atmosphere combine to create an unforgettable dining experience. Make sure to plan ahead, arrive with an appetite, and savor every moment at this delightful restaurant. Happy dining!

    Small location, but it's all open air. The food and drinks were excellent. Service can slow down when it's packed. Great for brunch!

    Some of the best nachos I've ever had. Friendly staff. A cool spot with a beautiful view so the sea, if you sit out on the street.

    Delicious food, nice atmosphere and great selection of beer.

  • 4/5 Sherri O. 2 years ago on Google
    The Nacho fries were a 10 (loaded and flavorful) as was the Rasberry Margarita! I gave the tacos an 8 (loved the sauce but the shells were tough). Service was outstanding!

  • 4/5 Kenny M. 2 years ago on Google
    I really like this restaurant, however although the staff was friendly they were not as attentive, it may have been the business of the restaurant but nonetheless we felt neglected, we only had one round of drinks since we where asked just once if the food was ok and that was it. The food is delicious and matches the aesthetics and price tag of the beach views. Flavors are great and bold, with super fresh seafood.

  • 4/5 Starman 2 years ago on Google
    Great prices for the area and you definitely get what you pay for! It was around $25/person for us. They have great serving sizes, big enough for some people to be able to split a meal and have both people be full. Lots of great burger options and some other menu options too. The drinks were overpriced, so we didn't end up ordering any. But the food is excellent! The music can make it a bit noisy if you eat inside, so don't expect a quiet meal if you choose to eat inside.

  • 5/5 Bruce L. 2 years ago on Google
    One of my favorite: "pay for the food not the atmosphere" restaurant. Basically an amazing fish market with a grill, fry or saute kitchen. Build your own feast- want lobster, a couple of giants prawns grilled and fried, and a bowl of clay chowder and then feast on the picnic tables facing the ocean in back😋

  • 5/5 lovy d. 2 years ago on Google
    The Food was so great. Kids even enjoyed everything. The burgers were mouthwatering and such a quick service, music was lively and the views were spectacular. We loved the drinks and the food. I would highly recommend this place....loved it ❤ Thank you to the whole Team.

    After a morning at Manhattan Beach we were ready to dive into some excellent American gastro-pub food for lunch. We were seated quickly and started with the nachos with carne asada. Topped with shishito peppers, an incredible salsa, and plenty of cheese, the nachos were perfect. Following that, we had the ahi tuna poke bowl and the billionaire burger. Both were delicious. All in all, it was a great meal in a great setting. The service was prompt and the atmosphere fun.

  • 5/5 Lee G. 4 years ago on Google
    Lively crowd. Good beer and great service. We enjoyed the outdoor spot.

  • 1/5 Kevin M. 4 years ago on Google
    Our service was horrendous. 4 beers on the menu they didn't have on tap. Food order never came. They can't serve a margarita? Have had good experiences there prior but will NEVER go back

    Fantastic spot to buy something when in a hurry. The customer service is prompt, rates are convenient, great atmosphere. Will visit here again

    Tried this spot in the past with my friend and I am addicted since then. I liked the good ambience and flavorful food and beverages. I recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Sophia L. 4 years ago on Google
    We are delighted with our lunch today and can’t wait to go back again. Staff are incredibly helpful and can't do enough for you. We had Taramasalata with warm bread, calamari was delicius. Great value for money. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this restaurant

  • 4/5 Jesus L. 2 years ago on Google
    Drinks were ok (seltzer & Moscow mule), pepper poppers wrapped in bacon were delicious. Blue cheese burger was awesome, fries were ok (half reg & half sweet potato)

  • 5/5 Mattie M. 2 years ago on Google
    Green Flash was soooo delicious — don’t let the green color scare you off. I ordered 3 tacos and they were very good. Beautiful view. Great prices!

    the burgers were so good!!! at first i was a little skeptical of the ratings as our service wasn’t great and the menu looked overwhelming, but once we got our food everything was delicious! I got the simmzys burger and my partner got the millionaire burger and we both loved ours! i also got a good margarita:)

  • 5/5 Evan G. 1 year ago on Google
    Just keeps getting better! I’ve been coming here for years and it is always a consistently excellent experience. The menu is fantastic and always evolving and the service is always wonderful. You can’t go wrong with the simmzy’s burger and one of their amazing craft brews. Pro tip: order a “mixed bag” of regular and sweet potato shoestring fries.

  • 5/5 Mark L. 1 year ago on Google
    This new place right in the center of Manhattan Beach has a great vibe and even better food. I have gotten some of their burgers, some of their tacos, and their nachos, and all are outrageously good. This place is amazing, I highly recommend going there.

  • 5/5 Max F. 1 year ago on Google
    Best burger in the South Bay! This place is a MB staple. Good ambiance in a prime location a couple blocks from the beach. I would describe the menu as “sneakily elevated bar food” and could probably eat their signature burger every day if my life. Good beer selection and service to boot.

  • 5/5 Ehsan S. 1 year ago on Google
    When I asked one of the staff how long they’ve had the restaurant open, the answer I got surprised me. It made me feel like they just had opened the store as they staff were so friendly and excited about their work. Super friendly people running the store. Congrats to the owner for having such people taking care of their store and delivering high quality. Alex was amazing and he took really good care of us. The food was amazing. I recommend Both Burger Patty Melt and Billionaire Burger. This was our first time in Manhattan beach and I really enjoyed visiting the place and its people.

  • 5/5 jane K. 1 year ago on Google
    The chicken,Apple,walnut& goat cheese salad was phenomenal . California chicken was very good. Staff is friendly. Highly recommend. Was busy so I as glad to do a ‘to go’ order and enjoy it with beer at the Culture Brewery just up the block. Yum

  • 4/5 Henry V. 11 months ago on Google
    Henry’s Take, Takes L.A.! Part 2 “Well I’m not the kind to live in the past. The years run too short and the days too fast. Time passages.” Al Stewart I think that Al was right about that. There’s no way to slow, much less stop, the passage of time. Perhaps the best we can do is enjoy the meandering path of life that we’ve been set upon. While here in L.A. for a graduation, the proud grad dad suggested that we eat at Simmzy’s because he recalled eating there around the time he attended UCLA. His daughter is graduating from USC (hey, the next gen has gotta blaze their own path people!) and the symmetry seemed irresistible. We began with the “15 Minute (But Worth the Wait) Wings” (actual name) and they really did take about that long to arrive at the table. The appeal of their presentation was undeniable and our table obliterated them. While the majority of our Review Team ordered salad bowls (which also offered great presentation and were also wiped out), I felt drawn to the “We’re Open Sunday’s Fried Chicken Sandwich” (actual name). It was marinated in buttermilk and Cholula and offered excellent flavors and crispiness. While we ordered too many things to review each meal, the proud grad dad strongly recommends that you consider the “Chicken Tinga Tacos” and “Blackened Local Rock Tacos.” Those dishes are appealing by their names alone, but it is the tortillas that really put them over the top for him. He described them as featuring a “crispy and heavy dough” that were filling enough to require only 2 of them to fully satisfy him. While proud dad grad was busy perseverating on the great tacos, the proud grad herself was busy vibing to the music which she described as “clubby.” While they may have had different foci at the restaurant, they are clearly bound by a love and friendship that bridges their generational differences. And there you have it. While Al was right that time does inexplicably move on, family and good food can be faithful companions that move on a simultaneous and parallel path alongside you. Cheers to our grad who worked so hard for this accomplishment and to all the other worthy and deserving grads out there! 🥂 And that’s…Henry’s Take. #uscgraduation2023

    I am in love with this place! Coming from out of town and decided to take a walk down the strand and find some places to look around! The local shops recommend this place and I couldn't agree more! Lexi was an absolute angel, great food a service. I hope to come back out here soon!

  • 4/5 Lindell P. 4 years ago on Google
    Love this place. The burgers are great and their take on a Cuban sandwich is really good. Come in for some great food and a wide variety of beers.

  • 1/5 Jerry D. 3 years ago on Google
    We waited for over an hour while seated and the server who took our order could barely stand up and speak coherently. He didn’t even take any notes and didn’t seem like he was even trying to remember our order. When our food came it was completely wrong (shocker)... Wrong burger, wrong sides, wrong toppings. When we confronted our server we started to suspect he may have been under the influence of something while working.

  • 1/5 Margaret T. 3 years ago on Google
    Ordered the chicken wings! C- Not even grilled or baked in hot sauce. Deep fried. Could have gotten better out of a bag at Food 4 Less! Hot sauce on the side... meh. Not spicy. Not sweet. Tossed salad even worse than out of a bag. My son, who lives for Sharkeez wings... was mightily disappointed.

    I adore this place! They have superb food, their menu is nice, The chief cook in that restaurant is a specialist, I love a lot eating all their food. The dishes are always good, the attitude towards the guests is friendly. I often go to this place and I was never unhappy. I recommend it to all my friends.

  • 5/5 Cosette J. 3 years ago on Google
    I can't say enough amazing things about this restaurant! The food and drinks were wonderful and the customer service truly unparalleled. Simmzy's went above and beyond to make my best friend feel special on the final night of her bachelorette trip, and I'm so grateful for that! We'd had a string of difficult dining experiences on the trip, but Simmzy's more than made up for those with the exceptional experience they provided. If you're in the mood for a diverse menu of awesome food, a great ambiance, and exceptional service, I strongly recommend heading to Simmzy's!

    Crowded and small. Gourmet burger and beers. Ok but there's a trade off when the place is so packed you can't move your arm to eat or drink.

  • 5/5 Sannah H. 3 years ago on Google
    It was never a concern that there’s a well-known restaurant that captured my wondrous moments together with my beautiful soon wife to be. They served in our table all the foods, wines, and desserts. I was delighted with their excellent treatment and accommodation. My fiancée and I were happy to be here at this wonderful restaurant. One thing was for sure, the recommendations that I made reached to all of my friends. Thank you!

    Burgers are great (if you ask for rare, they are rare), and a good selection of solid beer and other drinks. Good location near the beach, fun to watch people pass by while you chill with your meal. Music adds fun atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful staff.

  • 5/5 Dabnis F. 3 years ago on Google
    What a wonderful burger they serve here. Not only that they have a nice seating area. Its indoors but outdoors if you get what I mean. If you don't then you will have to go there and see yourself. As of now they are taking reservations only due to the pandemic going on. Great beers, great service and good food. A recipe for success

  • 4/5 Alexandra D. 4 years ago on Google
    I love this place for brunch. It gets SO BUSY, so get there early if you can. I still can’t find a breakfast burrito that lives up to the one at Simmzy’s, it’s incredible.
