Simmzy’s special for EAT LBC
03.20.14
With the upcoming inaugural Eat LBC, Long Beach Restaurant Week on March 30-April 5, it’s time to make plans to try some of the areas 50 eateries participating in the city’s first ever restaurant week. Each restaurant offers a prix fixe menu priced at $26 and $38 per person for dinner with wine pairing options at select locations.
One of our favorite Long Beach restaurants, Simmzy’s at Belmont Shore, specializing in upscale pub foods, wood fired pizzas, craft beer and boutique wines has created a special Eat LBC prix menu for restaurant week.
If you can make it in, you will love the casual, open-air feel, plus no doubt it will become one of your favorite Belmont Shore restaurants too. Many say the best burgers in town are here (Simmzy's angus beef patty, chow chow onions, melted cheddar, garlic aioli, lettuce and sliced tomato); we love the shrimp, citrus and avocado salad (woodfire grilled shrimp, artisan greens, oranges, avocado, toasted pepitas, red onion, radish, queso fresco and coriander vinaigrette); and their grilled fish tacos are also outstanding (fresh wild-caught oregon rock cod, soft corn tortillas, avocado, charred tomato salsa, lime, pickled radish, fried fresno chili rings and spiced sour cream). Save room for the the apple filled donut topped with vanilla ice cream, it is to die for.
Simmzy’s has created a delicious prix fixe menu for dinner at just $26 available March 30-April 5.
Choose one item per first course: caramelized brussels sprouts with butter, garlic, lemon, anchovies, capers, bruschetta; or a kale Caesar with polenta croutons, fried capers, bacon, parmesan, and cherry tomatoes; or spiked mac ‘n’ cheese balls with fried beer mac ‘n’ cheese with freshno chilies and sausage, and caramelized onion crema dipping sauce.
For the second course, choose between, spice and vinegar pulled pork panino, a long cooked pork, chow chow onions, and swills; or fried chicken sandwich with buttermilk biscuit, bacon gravy, and sharp cheddar; or blackened catfish po’ boy with spicy remoulade, shredded lettuce, tomato, pickle; and finally, a grilled romaine salad with honey dijon vinaigrette, bacon, blue cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and pickled red onions.
