"I liked the restaurant itself, ample parking and the service was good. But, their fish tacos are overpriced. Three Fish Tacos price tag was$20.75. That works out to almost $7 per taco. Considering they do not come with any sides. They were okay, but being an aficionada not the best I've had. Sorry to say, I wouldn't return in a hurry!"

I have been coming here for at least 15 years on Fridays for their 'famous ' beef dip. I won 't be back again. I could not even find a place to post a review on their own website so am posting this on tripadvisor. I know all prices are up since covid started but this was ridiculous. Prices have gone up 3 times in the last few weeks as quantities have decreased. The beef dip increases have been steepest compared with other menu items. Recently, I used to order extra meat on the sandwich as quantities decreased but this surcharge has now also increased exponentially. The final straw was last Friday when a sandwich was noted now to cost up to $24 and is now served on a bun the size and quality...

We went there for dinner yesterday evening. The place was busy. Because of the setup, the bar and dining room are together it is quiet noisy in there. It does not suit for a quiet dinner. It is like all bars, the drunker the patrons get the louder it is. As far as our dinner it was excellent. We had the crab and shrimp dip for appetizer, very tasty and hot. For dinner we picked the lobster soup, which had a lot of lobster in it, but the soup tasted more like a tomato soup, still very good . I ordered the lamp which was well prepared and tasty. A compliment to the kitchen for using hot plates. Overlooked in so many places. We had a bottle of California Pinot Grigio which was reasonably priced...

This was my second time going to Simon holt. The first time was quite a few years ago and the food was not good in my opinion. So I have never gone back until recently . My mom had a Giftcard so my sister and mom and I decided to give it a try. I thought maybe it’s better now? The service was fine. I ordered the salmon, my sister ordered the dragon bowl. Mom had fish and chips. The food I received was so underwhelming. I cook better than that. The salmon said it had a maple mustard glaze. There was no hint of any glaze. Just a plain overcooked piece of salmon on a bed of plain rice. No seasoning on anything. The only good part was the zucchini on the side. So disappointing. The dragon bowl w...

Great, welcoming hostess/greeter and friendly server. They both went above and beyond and offered tailored suggestions. The dinner and cocktails were fantastic. My husband had the bison burger (extra napkins offered and used) and I had a beet salad with garlic prawns. Excellent food, and nicely presented. The dessert key lime pie was not to our liking but the server made it right. We hadn’t been here for more than 5 years but now want to add it to our regular restaurant rotation. Thank you Hannah and your greeter colleague!
