A Local Fave: Simmzy's Long Beach

Living in Long Beach comes with so many positives. It's easy to navigate, the weather is beautiful, and the scenery is post-card perfect. Ask locals about their favorite things to do in Long Beach, and you will find that dining at Simmzy's always tops the list.

This is one of those special places that can't be squeezed into a restaurant niche. It's comfortable and friendly, but it's more than casual dining. You can drop in for a quick bite, but the atmosphere invites you to stay awhile.

Let's look at three reasons Long Beach locals love burgers and beer at Simmzy's.

1. It's All Delicious

Simmzy's earns its reputation for the very best local burgers with an impressive range of selections. The creative kitchen elevates this menu staple with Angus beef, American Wagyu, and even sushi-grade Ahi tuna. Unique topping choices include chow-chow onions, candied bacon, and frizzled shallots.

Plate sharing is always a thing to do in Long Beach. This gastropub serves it with sizzle. Where else can you enjoy customized nachos, pepper poppers with mango glaze, and fries smothered in blue cheese dressing?

From tuna poke bowls to wood-fired Margarita pizzas, there's something for everybody. When Long Beach natives head out for a weekend brunch, they know where to go for special scrambles or spicy chicken and waffles. Young diners love the Half-Pint Menu for kids. It's all delicious, and it's all locally sourced.

2. The Beers Are Handcrafted

Not every restaurant serves handcrafted beer. Not every establishment recommends perfect pairings of your favorite brews with your favorite menu items. Not every bar service pulls from a rotating selection of guest craft beers on tap.

You get it all right here. If enjoying a locally brewed premium beer is one of your favorite things to do, pull up a barstool. Explore signature house selections. Sip tap beers from neighboring breweries. You can even join Simmzy's subscription Beer Club. Yes, there's an app for that.

3. Everyone Is Welcomed

This isn't a rowdy sports bar, but it does offer a lively atmosphere. Simmzy's serves up a casual dining experience that transcends cookie-cutter menus. The interior is big and open, and outside seating invites small and large groups.

From the front to the back of house, the staff treats every guest like family. Whether you're here with the kids, on a date, or just hanging out, you're always welcomed. One visit is enough to bring you back for more with the youngsters, that special someone or the usual gang. The restaurant is even dog-friendly.

Simmzy's Keeps It Local

Of all the things to do in Long Beach, spending time at Simmzy's stands out as a favorite. If you're a new arrival, plan on dropping by soon. If you're a local and haven't found the place yet, just ask around.
