I am prefacing this review by stating the I just stopped by here for a quick drink (no food) as I was checking out the The Point, the shopping a mall that contains Lil' Simmzy's.
I at first did not realize they actually serve some of their own beers, but once I saw that I went with their Hazy IPA option. Along with that I also got a cocktail, the Paloma. The beer was pretty good, standard along with most the other Hazy IPA's that I've had. I'll say that this one was a little less hoppy than others I've had. The Paloma was one of the better ones I have tasted. It's made with mezcal instead of the usual tequila, so you can taste that "smokey" difference which I find people either enjoy or don't. I like the ancho salt rim on the drink, both for taste & look.
Service was pretty good and the place has a relaxed beachy vibe and nice overall feel. I think it's all outside seating which is fitting for the overall vibe and works well for being in the The Point. Ordered at the counter and self seated. I'd come here again to sip on a drink while I take a break from shopping.
The only one, somewhat larger, somewhat understandable downfall was the amount of dust at the table. When I grabbed a napkin, I noticed how dirty my hands got just from touching it due to the amount of dust/dirt in general at the table since it's outside...
Read moreRuined our Simmzy's experience. We went to Lil Simmzy's on the deck with my family. We were so excited that they had opened up a location at the point. We are a huge fan of Simmzy's in Manhattan Beach. There were understaffed and when the server brought our food, he had to guess several times which one was the medium cooked. He went back to the kitchen to check and it was still wrong. They took my husband's burger back to make a new one. Also, my burger and my kids were suppose to be cooked medium well and they were way over cooked. The bun was cold. The french fries was cold. I couldn't believe how they failed at every level... The worse thing were the paper plates. It got very wet from the burgers and it was saturated. They had only two servers and it was packed. They finally brought my husbands burger after twenty minutes of waiting. We had already finished our food and he decided to leave without eating his food.... I am surprised because the other locations are fantastic. I suggest you get more servers and busboys and get it together. We will not go back. If you want a real Simmzy's experience go to the Manhattan Beach or the venice one.... The only thing nice was the deck. So So...
Read moreCasual spot in the center of The Point. Came here for drinks with coworkers on a Thursday evening. I was peeved to find that they do accept reservations, though when I had called the day before, the worker told me that no reservations were accepted. I was unable to make a reservation online as well. However, there was not just one, but two tables sequestered by reservation signs, and my group of 12 had to make do with two small tables and borrowing chairs from multiple other tables. That was definitely inconvenient.
There’s no happy hour menu. There are plenty of beer options. The pitcher of sangria is good for four people and is good as a refreshing summer drink. The food portions are on the smaller side, so order more than you think. The wings and the haystack fries were the popular options of the night. The karaage chicken was okay and the guacamole was standard.
