Overall was disappointing experience, ambient was nice but food was expensive underwhelming to the point that we didn’t eat. Risotto undercooked and super salty.. and desert so chewy was inedible. As for service all though everyone was super nice, was veeeery slow.

Love Simonette! It feels like a cozy French bistro and the food is always delicious. A perfect spot to come for Galentines lunch with a bestie. We both had the tuna nicoise salad and shared their delicious truffle fries and a bottle of bubbly. Perfection

Gets very loud and overpacked suitable for after work hang outs but not most suitable for business meetings during end of the day hours
