"For 12 years, Simone’s has been a Pilsen staple for sustainable bites, community events, and lots of fun. Locals flock to the neighborhood standby, whether they’re grabbing brunch with friends (try that breakfast burrito), attending an event to benefit a local non-profit, or just grabbing a drink after a long day. Perhaps the best part about Simone’s is their creativity at the bar. Take their Hard Target, for example. This sweet, spicy, and tangy drink brings together Tajín and freeze-dried strawberries, along with hibiscus liqueur, housemade agua de jamaica, lime juice, and Astral Blanco. It’s a super-balanced drink that’s as exciting as it is unique." - Ariel Kanter

"Simone’s is a Pilsen staple with solid food and beverage offerings and a stacked calendar of events and music. There’s always something going on and there’s also enough space to bring the entire crew on the day-drinking adventure." - AJ LaTrace

"Over in Pilsen, Simone’s unique space packs the crowds in on the weekends with DJs, a satisfying brunch menu, a fireplace, and more." - Naomi Waxman
"Simone’s is a quirky bar in the heart of Pilsen. The interior is made with reclaimed materials, including the bar that’s made from a bowling lane. There’s a variety of pub grub to go along with beer or a cocktail, whichever wets your whistle." - Eater Staff
