This trip to Simons hit the spot. Needed comfort food and got it. Great motzah ball soup then a turkey sandwich with mash potatoes, both covered in gravey. As always, good value.
1st time there, good Reubens. Wife enjoyed the Matza ball soup and tuna sandwich. Will go back.Lorna our waitress was excellent.
Unfortunately found a bug in the salad today; usually we don’t have issues here.
Administrative appreciation day we took ours out to this local restaurant. I am glad we choose this place. The food was amazing. Will be going here more often when im in the mood for a good sandwich.
I attended a luncheons meeting here. The waitress was very attentive and kept us in coffee. Our food was good too, and reasonably priced. Will be back!
The food my was fresh, tasty, & enjoyable. We had matza ball soup, turkey club, and New Yorker sandwich. The service was extremely slow & check had to be redone as it was not right.
Great service, friendly staff. The food we ordered was perfect. My wife got the BLT, and I had the tuna melt. I highly recommend it!
Great restaurant-deli style dishes. Consistently good food. Service is friendly slow pace and you never feel pushed.
This was our 1st visit here .. but definitely not our last .. the staff members were very pleasant and extremely helpful .. the food was delicious and very plentiful .. I got the chicken parmesan and Johnnie got the seafood platter .. we both had leftovers to bring home .. we were so full that we werent able to eat dessert .. but that didnt keep us from taking home some fabulous slices of cake and pie .. the menu has a large selection to choose from .. cant wait to go back again, theres so many more entrees I want to try ..
Fantastic venue to dine and visit with old friends. Service and food was terrific with reasonable pricing.
Excellent food and service! Relaxing atmosphere. When you visit you must try a cream puff! Enjoy!
Good food modest prices good service good corned beef. My favorite Corned Beef and Latkes ( AKA) Potato Pancakes.
My fiance got served a red burger seems like they put it on the grill for a second, then popped it on the bun. ...Could have just bit the cow alive
Made reservations for a 1960s classmate luncheon for 20 people and separate checks. They gave us a private section with an unbelievable waitress.She was very patient with all of us mingling. She kept drink orders and food orders straight. Good food, great drinks and good time.
Good food and service. Casual. Low to medium prices. Fireplace. Bar or dining room areas. Daily cheap specials for lunch like fish or chicken paprikash. Love the chicken parmesan! Best and most beautiful desserts and deli for dine in or take out. Always have homemade gigantic cream puffs, some sort of decadent cheesecake and other beautiful cake!
Best food money can buy!Fantastic service desserts that are out of this world
After a slightly rough, but fully understandable start, they pulled out all the stops and totally rocked our lunch. They were profoundly gracious hosts, and the hostess cared for us, personally. Every bite was excellent, and we left stuffed to the gills!. When in the area, we will DEFINITELY return. Kraut balls are a must-have, sandwiches were amazing and large. French onion soup was excellent.It may have been my first stop, here, but it wont be my last!
Havent been there in years, still great place, great food and service.
Simons has been around forever. I remember back before they redid the design that we used to go there for matzoh ball soup and sauerkraut balls. Now that Im older, I appreciate the local small town feel when I stop in for a sandwich and a beer. Would highly recommend their carrot cake! It is out of this world!
Food was great but Linda seemed very bothered that we were sat in her section. No refills and not attentive 😔
Love simons but not a good day to go Dec 21st. Very busy afternoon.. hubbys king cornbeef hard to eat they had it chopped like cornbeef for breakfast.. i had chix papikash.. was ok the few dumplings were mushy.. I gave 4 ⭐bc very friendly and clean
Used to eat here often for good home cooked meals. The last 2 times the food was not up to their usual standards. The vegetables were over cooked, no seasoning or butter, corn mixed with green beans! The meat loaf was burned and the pork chops were nasty. They were out of baked potatoes.. The waitress flew by our table asking how everything was yet not stopping for the answer. When she returned we told her, about the food.all she said was Ill tell the cook. She brought the bill without another word. We will not Return! We have eaten there many times before this is sad.
Good old fashioned deli. Theyve expanded since I was last there, adding the shop next door and building a bar/counter seating area and larger dining area.They seemed to a bit under staffed, like every restaurant in the covid era. The food was good, as always. They also shrunk their menu a bit from the last time I was there. Hopefully, when things get back to normal, everything will be made whole again
Absolutely love their corned beef sandwiches. You can ask for lean Its just 50 cents or a dollar more. Theyre quick in their preparation and I believe its approximately $10 for an 8-oz sandwich. The last time I came I needed sandwiches for five people and it was more cost effective to just order the corned beef from the deli and make the sandwiches myself since it was $14.99 a pound. Try them out I think youll like it.
Always great food mottsaball soup an Ruben kinda night side of sourkraut balls topped with Canada cake now for a nap
Great corned beef sandwich and out of this world eclairs.
Fantastic food! Service was a little slow but food was amazing!! The kraut bowls are awesome!
I have never been disappointed eating here. Corned Beef Sandwiches are great and just as good as Slymans. Actually, better because they cost less. Chicken Cobb Salad in a Tortilla Shell is the bomb. Cant go wrong here. Full service bar as well as regular dining area.One of my favorite places to visit.
Waitresses talking really loud with each other and hard to get their attention. Food is always 👍
Excellent food and desserts. Beautiful presentation of desserts. Raspberry mousseCheesecake was beyond delicious.Best Ruebens. We drive an hour to go there.Staff and owners friendly and fast.One of the best restaurants we’ve been to in our 70+ years 👍🏻
Simon’s are wonderful ppl not only have they been good to my company, they’ve employed my daughters first job.
All I can say is WOW! The food was fantastic (the beef stroganoff tastes like moms home cooking), the restaurant was very clean, and our server Emily was outstanding (many thanks for your service and being super at what you do). One of the most pleasant and enjoyable dining experiences Ive had in years. I was in the area but live 35 minutes away and I would make the drive just for dinner.
I have been coming to Simon’s since I was a child and it never fails to disappoint. Can’t beat their matzoh ball soup and kraut balls. And try the corned beef!
Mom and I stopped here around 2pm today. When Dad was still with us, they used to visit Simon’s. My first visit. Food was fine...definitely not the best Reuben I’ve had...not the worst. Mom had City chicken which she liked. Our server Lorna was great.The place looked clean...but first thing I noticed walking in was a bad smell that turned out to be coming from the bathrooms off the lobby. We walk toward the back and later I visited the ladies room and the odor of mould/sewage hit me. The ladies room definitely needs a power scrubbing of floors and drains and under sink counter. I assume the men’s room too.For this reason I won’t return.
Excellent waitress. Good food.
This restaurant is amazing! We had their New Yorker, which is a corned beef sandwich and it was loaded. The cheesecake there tastes like cheesecake from the cheesecake factory! The blintzes are amazing and their bagel and kid sandwich also was amazing! We stopped on our way to Pennsylvania and on our way home back to Michigan, went out of our way to stop there again and had corned beef sandwiches made up to go!!
I specifically went for the veggie burger and was informed this item wasnt available.
Great service and delicious food! I got and enjoyed: Matzo ball soup, Cheese Blintzes with Cherries, and Chicken Salad on a bagel and I highly recommend each of them.
The best corned beef around! Family owned business that has great customer service! We love this place!
Remodeled few years ago hid the meat slicer away from customer view. Low lighting makes it hard to read menu feels like the bat cave. Cafeteria style food decent soups nice fancy deserts.
Excellent food and service. Plesent atmosphere and very clean and exquisite desserts
We were just passing through and stopped for abite. Everything was amazing and the staff was super!
So Friendly! The waiter was super sweet being attentive without being intrusive. Meals came out perfectly when we were done with our salads. Glasses refilled without having to hunt our waiter down. For dessert I ordered the triple chocolate layer cake and asked for 3 forks so my friends could help me with the calories - which they did without hesitation (do I have the best friends, or what!) Dont hesitate - go/enjoy and thank me later!
Excellent server, excellent service. The dessert was so tasty
Cold Reubens, beef and latkes under cooked, waitress was incredibly slow and arrogant. First time visit and will never return.
Best corned beef and chicken paprikash on the west side!
Our group of 28 enjoyed the separation from the dining room in a well appointed side party room. Preparations were excellent and the pre-ordered party trays of vegetables and cheese were very fresh and attractive. Servers Kris and Steve took good care of us with drinks and dinner. Food as always is very comfortable and delicious. My first party here, but Ill be back.
Ohhhh, my gooooodness, I could eat Simons Delis pork chops every day of my life! This restaurant is not overly fancy-shmancy but, holy cow, theyre doing it RIGHT! I live in Akron and I dont mind schlepping out to Brecksville for their pork chops, ohhh, yummm! Go! Youll thank me!
You wont be disappointed. Love the food. Nice menu. Have a variety of different dishes. Pleasant decor and friendly and tentative service.
Good service, good food. Corned beef omelet and corned beef lattkes very good. Reasonable prices.
Awesome Staff! Great portions.
Best matzo ball Soup. Friendly, efficient service.
Best Cobb salads on this planet. One of the few places I’ve ever been to that serves city chicken which is a huge novelty for me. When they make the bagels fresh you absolutely can’t find a better one in the area. Been a customer for 20+ years and applaud their consistency of serving up great food
Came for breakfast. The experimence was kind of weird because the guy at the front signaled to us that hed walk us to a table so we followed but he walked directly into the back kitchen so we sat ourselves. The waitress seemed confused as well and helped us without asking us to move, which was nice. We didnt get silverware until we asked but it was probably because we sat at a random table. It wasnt a big deal. The 3 star rating is because the food was mediocre.The restaurant is cheap both in quality and price.
My co worker brought me here and the food is absolutely delicious. The food is so good that I went back a second time in the week even though our server wasn’t friendly or helpful. Our bad luck, we had her a second time lolThey have a little bit of everything, it’s very clean and tasty. The desserts set up as you walk in make it a killer hard to be good, we gave in the second time around.
The cheesecake was the best part! If I had known that, I would’ve ordered it first. The pastrami was decent. The waitresses were in back chit chatting especially loud as if there were no customers around. Besides that, the food was decent and I would visit again.
I ordered a Reuben sandwich and coleslaw with coffee xcetera the sandwich was perfectly made along with a dill pickle the sandwich was high quality had a very reasonable price in my opinion and the coleslaw was pretty good also how come back and by the way they serve corned beef and cabbage everyday and this large portions Ive had that before alarm time ago
Food was above average.Desserts are great.Service good.Potatos my wife got were cold.Had to reheat them twice.That is the only thing that kept them from a 5 star.
We would up at Simons because we needed somewhere quick. The waitress said Order deli so we did. The kraft balls and mozzarella sticks were very good. I especially liked the horseradish sauce for the balks. The corned beef Reubens were very good. No room for dessert so I got a cream puff to go which I really enjoyed the next day
Good tip from Good Day Cleveland. From what we viewed on the TV program and our own experience, Simons is dishing up some fine food. High marks for their Matzo ball soup and French Onion soup which were seasoned very well...Roast and Corned Beef selections were very tender. Colel slaw is nicely shredded and dressed (Pleased to see that they drain the dressing before serving so the flavor is present but not the sloppiness of the dressing). Also really like the Potato pancakes that are used with the Corned Beef selection, making it a well constructed sandwich that doesnt fall apart. Even the pickle was extraordinary: crisp not mushy.We will be interested in making another trip very soon to sample the rest. Hoping their ribs are great too.
Possibly the best pastrami and corned beef in all of Northeast Ohio. Had a really great server, super kind! Sauerkraut balls appetizer was the best Ive ever had. Highly recommended if youre in the area. Bar and deli and restaurant, has whatever you want!
Fantastic breakfast. Also love there burgers and Reuben sandwiches. Everything is great on the menu... especially the desserts. Usually get cheesecake. The burgers are cooked on an open flame. With hot tasty steak fries.
Omg yumm!! Go here for good ol american eats but also something a little special. Turkey sandwich with gravy and mashed potatoes. Best I ever had. Been a long time since I could enjoy this family style meal. Reuben also primo. Eat here!
We had a group of 14 people for dinner. The waitress did an amazing job and everyones food was excellent
Best dessert selections! the triple mousse is amazing I have stopped to purchase just that to go for dinner guests, everyone loves it. Call ahead and u can get a whole cake to take if you stop in and they have it available in the case they will let you purchase the whole thing. Worth the price.
Food is decent but the service is terrible! I refuse to dine in anymore. Carry out is still great.
Best place for Corned Beef! We had a delicious lunch and great Service from Lynn. Also nice to find out that she is also from Medina! Very clean and friendly atmosphere. We will definitely be back!
Nice place. Good food. Must try the pumpkin cheesecake. It is absolutely delicious.
Have yet to be disappointed with any of the food options here and always enjoy dining in! Entire staff friendly and bartenders go out of their way to make you feel welcome even having drinks from time to time with patrons.
I ordered a wrap without tomatoes. It came with tomatoes on it anyway, however it was delicious. I would not have had it any other way. Ended the meal by sharing a cream puff with my wife. Amazing!! And I recommend the Matzoball soup.
Such an odd duck. And yet, the food was amazing, the dessert of the hook, and the employees were awesome!Its a Jewish sure deli restaurant with a full bar area. Never seen such a thing.Especially in a shopping center.But it works!
Ordered the large corned beef sandwich called the downtowner.. Was supposed to be 12 ounces, was more like 8 oz. The corned beef was terribly dry, tasted like it had been pre cut earlier in the day. The steak fries were great and served hot that and the sweet waitress is the reason I have 2 stars
Great family run place where I ate lunch for years while working in Brecksville. Daily specials and always great chicken noodle soup and corned beef sandwiches or full dinners along with a bar to enjoy a drink. Always stop in when we are in the neighborhood.
The food is great and the service started great, however I felt shuttled out .... would have liked to be offered another coffee instead of my plate taken and the check set down the minute I appeared to have finished the last bite. Awkward.
One of my favorite places. I used to work nearby and would grab lunch here from time to time. This is my wife and my place of choice to take a break during full days at Brandywine now. Their matza ball soup is the best Ive had, and I love ordering the Mediterranean platter. Their staff is extremely friendly, and Michael seems to always be at the door.
Great place for deli style meals. We come here to eat anytime we are in the Brecksville area. I love the veal parm and the Ruben sandwiches. My wife considers the corn beef some of the best she has ever eaten. There cheese cakes are also spectacular!
The owner and her daughter were very nice. All great service and on top of that, they gave us a free cheesecake slice on the house by surprise!
A gem and longstanding local favorite. Delicious soups, all day breakfast and popcorn at the bar!
Always a great meal and great service
This place has great food and daily specials. Everyone is really nice and the place is ALWAYS clean!! Make sure you grab some cheese cake on your way out.. It is beyond delicious!!!!!
The food and the service was and always is excellent! Portion sizes are good and variety is so much, hard to make a decision! We love their breakfasts too... We will be going back!
Lunch, Saturday, Feb. 2. My son had their hamburger and fries. This is our second visit. Four years ago was our first. My son (14) regards as one of the best burgers hes ever had - Cooked Medium. I enjoyed the Walleye Sand. from their ample and diverse specials menu. I did not eat the bun b/c the pcs. of perfectly deep fried walleye were 3 by 9! He got fries, I got o rings. O rings so good (his 1st ever, he has never eaten o rings before). Service - Excellent! AND took 2 pcs. chocolate suicide cake home to share with wife and daughter. Only regret, dont get to Brecksville enough
Corned beef and pastrami on rye generous amount very very good, nice subtle decor and quiet, attentive service. Saved to favorites
Very good. My only issue was the corned beef was a little too dry for my liking but everything else was great. Service was good as well.
Visited this restaurant twice and probably wont be going back. Mediocre service. Mediocre food especially for how much theyre charging. The dessert case looked good. Wanted to get some but wanted to leave more.
Food was good, but our waitress got our order wrong and was not attentive. The drinks were great and they didnt skimp with the alcohol. Id definitely go back again, maybe not on a Friday night though.
Amazing food and menu! Fresh and full of flavor ! Corn beef best in Cleveland really gotta try! Hidden Gem
Always good. I have been going here for years and I have never had a bad meal. A wide variety of meals, specials and sandwiches at reasonable prices. I would recommend this restaurant.
Went for lunch today , have eaten there several times , had the worst waitress, we were there for 1 hour and 20 mins , the restaurant was not even close to being packed , I think she forgot to put our order in , walked by us 5x times without bringing more coffee ,had our cups at the edge of table , had to ask for more coffee each time , many more mishaps to mention , clearly A was not meant to waitress. Disastrous!!
Ordered soup 1/2 sandwich. onion soup cold, had to send backsandwich good but had to pay 50 cents extra for lean meat, and $1extra for soup, price on menu was $7.99. Price on bill was $10.49.asked why the difference, and told for the $1.00 and .50 but thatonly comes up to 9.49. Some creative charging going on. Watchyour bill and food not that good.
The kids chicken tenders were raw in the middle. Glad we cut into them before the kids had a chance to take a bite. Not much was done to ameliorate the situation other than make us a fresh order with one extra tender. Pasta salad was lazily made with big chunks of onions.
2nd time there, Corn Beef was LIT!
I got a Ruben. The corned beef was dry. I couldnt taste the 1000 Island salad dressing over the other flavors after spreading it on the sandwich.
Absolutely incredible food! I found them by chance and I will definitely be back, despite the hour drive it will be to get here!
This place is delicious! Their food is amazing and their desserts are out of this world. The portions are huge. You definitely get your moneys worth!
Very bad service. Took to long to have our order taken. Then took to long to get our food. Not everyone got there food at same time and a few of the meals came out cold. The only positive was the matza ball soup was good. Not sure if Im ever going back
Very pleasant...hard working waitresses!! We come once a month..class of 1959.
The best tabouleh I have tasted in years. Its balanced, not too acidic, and not too much salt, pepper, or bulgar wheat. The hummus is good, you can tell it was made with fresh chick peas. Well be back!
Food was good as it always is. Our server may have been new or having an off day....terrible! Multiple issues with the service unfortunately. Many in my party were unhappy.
Great service. A bit pricey, but times are tough for hospitality. Food ok
Best Matza ball soup! Sauerkraut balls are yummy.. Family friendly & good portions.
Nice food, some items overpriced for the serving size. Friendly staff that is knowledgeable about the menu. Always a good time but watch the dinner rush, parking can be hard at times due to this.
Great food and service -- from deli sandwiches to full dinners.
I saw this place on new day cleveland fox 8. So me and my two friends checked it out. The food was good and fresh. Service was fast as well. Overall it was a good choice.
Usually have a great experience but the Romanian Pastrami sandwich was awful! Hot Pastrami just reheated on the flat top, oily and nearly as crisp as bacon.
Matzoh ball soup is amazing and some of the best corned beef in the county. You should definitely check it out if you havent already.
Food is always good, they were a little slow and didnt seem that busy. So I only gave it 4 stars. Clean restaurant and good homestyle type food.
Poor service. Ordered a cheeseburger and was served a childs burger. Glass was cracked and leaked on table. Took 1 hr to receive food and was mediocre. Wasnt that crowded and still poor service.
Waitresses are nice and food is good.
Amazing St. Patricks Day experience!!! Best corned beef and Reubens in all of the Land:)
Excellent and authentic deli and full restaurant selections. The hot Roumanian pastrami sandwich is too good to not order every time I go. Highly recommended!
Good deli and comfort food. Not a kosher deli. Above average corned beef. Decent salads. Excellent meat and potatoes dishes.
We had chicken sandwich take out. Went to the park. No mayo for chic. And no ketchup for fries...very disappointing...food was good.
Always great food. Delicious corned beef.
Excellent food and service. Always get greeted with a warm smile. The food is great and the staff is always above and beyond expected
The food was great! The waiters were friendly. Wish I had found out about this place years ago.
Great service, courteous waitress, and delicious food. The steak cut fries were to die for. Also, generous servings. Well be back.
Well prepared dishes, generous portions, well priced, very helpful staff, deli & bakery offerings! Full bar. Sometimes too cool & breezy.
Nice atmosphere. Reasonable prices. Great sandwiches and the BEST matzo ball soup. Only drawback is that service is sometimes slow.
Place is dark, no lights over the tables. Server sucked. Food is overpriced. Paid $12.25 for a chicken sandwich with onion rings.
Great variety of dishes.
Food is excellent including offerings of low fat options. Many luscious desserts are also available. This is a deli restaurant with many sandwich options available but dinner entrees are also available.
One of the most delicious sandwiches i ever ate 10 out of 10 and id come back
Horrible food, worst corned beef I’ve ever eaten, waitress really seemed put out that she had to service our table of 2. Won’t be going back....ever.
I hade WOW matzo ball soup and pork chops wer so (Fen ) good omg the waitress was so friendly
Great food, generous servings. Nice bakery but items are often sold out by dinner hours
Ordered the Philadelphia. Best pastrami in the city. Its not just corned beef with black pepper. Its its own beautiful beef beast.
Great food! The ruben was huge and the french onion soup was delicious!
Oh that matzoh ball soup!
Good food and service!
Cant go wrong with dinner specials, best matzo ball soup around. Old school dessert case is awesome
MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN TO SIMONS 3 TIMES, THIS TIME WHEN WE WENT, THE WAITRESS SAID. ILL BE RIGHT WITH YOU BUT SHE WENT TO THE BACK TO GET A PATRON A DRINK. NO PROBLEM, THEN SHE CAME BACK , AND WALKED PAST US AGAIN. THEN PROCEDED TO TAKE HIS ORDER. STILL NO PROBLEM. THEN SHE WENT TO THE BACK AGAIN. WE WERE LEFT STANDING FOR ALL OF THIS TIME. I AM HAND I CAPED, AND IT IS VERY HARD TO STAND FOR MORE THAN 10 MIN. WHEN SHE WENT TO THE BACK ,WE WAITED FOR APPOX ANOTHER 6 OR 7 MIN. SO WE LEFT. I WILL SAY THAT THE FOOD HAS ALWAYS BEEN GREAT, AND THE DESSERTS EVEN BETTER. BUT THIS WAITRESS NEEDS TO BE A LITTLE MORE OBSERVANT.
Food was incredible but the service could have been a bit quicker... But what she lacked in speed she made up for in personality.
Food was good, it came to the table hot. Waitress was pleasant.
Grew up in the areaNow live out state. Always come here when in town. Corned beef is still the bomb. Menu is all good.
Horrible waitress that served my table today. Assumed I wanted water and then when I said take it back she ignored me! That is NOT the good costumer service at all. I will not be returning to this place
Always delicious. Great corned beef, pastrami, latkes and yummy matzo ball soup.
HUGE corned beef sandwiches! Worth checking the Daily Specials. A local favorite for over 30 years. Well stocked bar, too.
Food and service were really good.
Good food & Maggie gave us great service... I will return!
Awesome food and great service! Simons had been a Brecksville staple for many years and I enjoy dining there whenever Im in the area.
Nice Family restaurant. Menu had good selection of food. Good selection of beers on tap. Very reasonably priced
Ur comfort food...wish they brought back grape leaves.. but great chef keith.. patty wonderful greeter..and Michael simon xoxo
This place is a local gem! Great corned beef
Excellent food and friendly service. Easy parking and perfect for takeout.
Its... Cafeteria food. Youll be ok, the prices are fine, and the service is good. Food is mediocre staples. Sorry, just wasnt impressed
There was hair in my food…
We held my fathers 90th in the back room for a crowd of about 25.Excellent food and very professional attentive staff.A Brecksville mainstay.
Place has been remodeled a few times over the years. Unfortunately, the food has become inconsistent. Seems to have lost its charm.
Service is a little below-average, ordered the seafood platter half came back burnt the vegetables were cold but the clams were good and the soup was good.
Rarely have a bad meal here... A lot of food for the price; always a good value. Nice atmosphere too...
Great food and great survive. Highly recommend the salmon bowl
Always friendly folks. Great Matzo Ball soup.
A gem in the city of Brecksville. Has great corned beef sandwiches. Also has a very nice variety of dinner specials daily.
The wife and I go here for lunch a lot, the food and service are outstanding, and its fairly priced too ! They have the best corned beef!
A classic in the neighborhood, excellent pastrami and corned beef. Dont leave their without having an eclair. Too good!
Lauren and Patti are the best. Great home cooked food.. i.e. mot a chain with the same old food.
Always consistently good. Great comfort food options. Serves breakfast all day!
Great meal in a family atmosphere with good service and prices. Highly recommended. Hit the dessert display
Wide menu, most all of our large group enjoyed their meals and the service was great.
Great service. Delicious homemade food.
Good times and fun food. Not particularly great in any one respect, but you wont be disappointed by what you order.
Food and service were excellent. Quiet and friendly atmosphere. Nice appearance inside.
If you like deli food, you must try Simons
Food was good...price and service was good...got a huge creampuff for dessert ..Was awesome...yum
This is the best deli ever! I get off the interstate for the lean corned beef. This place was a frequent stop when I visited my folks.
Its a nice family owned restaurant, great waitresses & amazing food for an unbelievable price.
You walk in past a gorgeous deli and pastry counter with Paris-level splendor. Always good food
The food and service is always delicious and cooked daily. The chef is fantastic
Good food great service! You cant go wrong with the pecan crusted chicken
Great comfort food sold here and s warm & inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend!!!
Nice clean restaurant. Food and service was good. Would recommend and come again. Good portions.
Great place
Stumbled upon this place after hiking at CVNP. Great food, soup was amazing. And the Creme Puffs 😍
Used to go as a teenager, went back with my brothers and the inside has changed a little, but the food is still great!!
Good Corned Beef and our Server Joy was absolutely awesome. We will be back for sure.
Best corn beef Reuben sandwiches , good price, dessert choices are fantastic, great people and great great service.
A family tradition when in town! Been going since I was a little kids, and Im 45 now!!
Great place for good food. However, Whiteys better and way more fun. The lines are shorter at Simons.
Went their for a very important reason, we had 7 different checks and we had horrible service, the waitresses were very ignorant and disrespectful, made us wait for refills, and couldnt remember our orders forgot food and everything came out cold and when asked to speak to manager the owner came over and asked if we sent back our food and when told that they were just going to microwave it we said no..She was also very ignorant and disrespectful...I WILL NEVER GO BACK HERE!!!!!
All I wanted was chicken noodle soup because I wasnt feeling well. And when I got home, it was water down, and all noddles. First and last time ever going
Come hungry, leave stuffed!
It is family friendly, has excellent service and you can order deli fresh meals
Good comfort food and fast reliable service
We place a order to go.. you do get a nice portion of food even if its to go ..they have a nice selections of desserts there as well ..if you wanted any ...
Good food, large portions, service can be slow sometimes.
Good corned beef and pastrami sandwich. Staff is good. Its on the pricey side.
The corn beef sandwich used to be much better, little skimpy for the price.
Great service and great food. Couldnt sit still while eating the corned beef and cabbage!

2021-09-17Questionable service speed, 10 minutes to bring water to the table.Zero covid restrictions- Staff not wearing Masks.Thankfully the food was hot and tasty.Probably the best French onion soup ive had in a while.Good stuffed cabbage too.Red velvet cake looks great too.
Review №2
2021-08-25The food was all good. The menu selection was good and service was top notch. Try the corn beef or the pastrami youre going to love them. Dont forget the desert, we had a cream puff and it was just as good as the sandwiches.

2022-03-05We’ve dined at Simon’s for years with great service and tasty hot food. Last night was a nightmare. Surprisingly, it was not as busy as we had anticipated given the first Friday of Lent. No line. No wait. We were greeted by a lovely hostess and seated in a booth at our request. We were greeted by our waitress and she brought us water upon our request. It then took 21 minutes (we timed it) for our waitress to return to take our dinner order. Meanwhile, many guests who came in well after us, were seated and eating. I asked another waitress walking by if we could have our order taken. I received her reply, “we’re busy tonight”, and she kept walking past us. Our waitress walked by our table 4 times saying “I’ll be right with you”, over that 21 minutes. She then took our order. Our soups came out literally lukewarm. ( I won’t eat a cream-based soup if it’s not hot with steam rolling off of it. ) We asked to have the soup heated and received a glare with no reply, grabbing the soup, banging my soup spoon against the side of my bowl 5 times and placing the spoon on top of my wrapped crackers. Not a “sure” or “sorry about that”, not even a grunt. No eye contact. My husband walked up to the store front to the counter and asked to speak with the manager. She took 10 minutes to arrive to our table. Meanwhile, the soup had been returned hot. I ordered a side of macaroni and cheese at our initial order. It finally arrived 30 minutes later, before the manager came by, and it was cold to the touch. The manager took my Mac and cheese and it came back 5 minutes later. It was warmer, but not hot. Not sure what’s going on with the food coming out NOT HOT!After the end of our meal of fish fry, and after asking our waitress for utensils, we were almost finished eating, and the manager stopped by again. We asked her too, for utensils. She obliged but also forgot. So my husband ate his meal with his hands and his soup spoon. The manager came back, we asked for utensils again and she replied, “Damn!”, and went to get them and returned with them. So after over an hour, we finally finished our meal. The waitress was clearly in a foul mood. When we shared our experience with the manager, her reply was “She’s worked here for 20 years”, giving a grimace on her face. Given our waitress had no eye contact with us, would not communicate or appear to be engaged, this was quite honestly a frustrating experience. We planned to meet a friend and drove in 30 minutes away for a nice meal and good conversation. No apologies were made by anyone. The waitress took care of the bill and said, “Thanks for putting up with us.” We paid our bill in full. No discounts. No apology or “Come back again”, no offer of free soda. We’ve always enjoyed dining at this establishment. We’ve brought our relatives and friends from out of town (NY, NJ, Columbus, Cincinnati). We love the location, atmosphere and down-home menu with a variety of choices. But, sadly, we won’t be back.

2022-07-09My daughter and I were in the area from out of town, and decided to try Simons. We both had French onion soup and it was wonderful! I had a fish sandwich and she had the chicken sandwich with turkey,bacon, and mozzarella. They were both huge and very good. We got strawberry cheesecake and carrot cake to go, both were delicious! (They didnt my it home.) Also ordered a lox and bagel sandwich to go, cant wait to try it! Lots of leftovers 💜

2021-03-16Wow this place is amazing!! Its a very nice atmosphere. The tables were neat and clean. I had the French onion soup with 1/2 Ruben sandwich. The garlic bread that came with the soup was honestly the best Ive ever had. The sandwich came with 1000 island and real horseradish. It was so good! My friend had their Simon burger and said it was fantastic! He could tell that it was made from high quality beef. I cant wait to return and try some of their other meals.

2022-02-23I enjoyed their lunch special of Fried Bologna and tater tots. It was delicious and a treat from their regular excellent menu selection. Their corned beef sandwiches are the best and also excellent tuna melt sandwich. Breakfast items are also consistently delicious.

2022-03-17One of the BEST eggplant parms Ive ever had! Daughters Reuben was very good as well.Atmosphere is generic and unremarkable. Service was efficient, but not the least bit friendly.

2022-03-22Excellent service. Food very warm when served. Large group obtained meals in a close time frame. Everyone raved about the food. I had stuffed cabbage, which revisited me for hours accompanied with epigastric pain and fever for 2 days. It may be a coincidence. I still plan to return.

2022-05-06Simons made the food for my wedding and it was fantastic! Even a month later and a lot of our guests are still talking about how good the chicken was! Thank you so much for adding something special to my big day!

2022-03-08The food at Simon’s is always good, which is the reason we go back. Last night (03.04.2022), the service reached an all time low. Our server Chris asked to take our drink order and after she delivered three waters, she disappeared for 20 mins. During this time she walked by 4 times and said either I’ll be right back or I’ll take your order in a minute. When soup arrived and they were warm at best. When I asked her to heat it up, she said nothing and walked away. Not a word! When I finally found the manager, she was apologetic in her speech, but never said Im sorry for your experience or Im Sorry. After a discussions about make excuses for her, I asked for her for utensils since we were short one. Our food arrived and I ate my dinner with a spoon, since the manager never returned. When I flagged her down again, she said “dammit” I forgot. I did get a fork but I was done eating by the time it arrived. If Simon’s wants to survive, they will need a change of leadership.
