One of the better slightly-upscale restaurants on the commons. The seating can be a bit cramped in the old section. Food is quite good. Service seems fine. more

We recently got married in Ithaca, NY. We had our rehearsal dinner at Simeon's and cannot thank them enough. The food was outrageous. The service was impeccable. The entire experience was fabulous. We have been loyal Simeon's customers from back in the day, but the new ownership has done wonders to improve this great location. I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant... more

we ate there last night and have nothing but good things to say about it. Had the kettle chips fondue as an appetizer, which was a decadent delight, very nicely prepared and tasty. My husband had the ancient grain salad as an entree which included strips of chicken breast. It was very yummy and perfectly prepared. I had a steak... more

We were in Ithaca for the weekend at the end of June and I felt compelled to write a review because most of the previous one's are dated. This is truly a unique place to eat, the dining area is beautiful. Neat bar, cozy dining area's and the architecture is great. All very nice but how about the food? Just... more

New owners and it shows- food is much improved. Quite a few comfort food dishes and a great wine list. We like stopping by for a night-cap after the theatre more

Great service and food!! Sandwiches reminded us of "Stacks" in S.F. which we love!! Perhaps we were biased by its warm homey ambiance on a blustery rainy day, but we really won over by this wonderful restaurant! more

My fiance and I wandered around the commons in Ithaca one night searching for a place to eat. Lucky for us we chose Simeons. There was actually somebody waiting for us at the door to seat us upon watching us navigate the menu outside, nice to know they want our business. Our server, Brenda (?) was GREAT, it was only... more

I felt compelled to take a few breif moments and express our tremendous experience at Simeon's on the Commons. My wife and I were part of a party of 6 who took the time traveled to Ithaca from the Binghamton area while on a trip to our old home town. Simeons had been recommended by several friends in the area... more

As locals we were skeptical of trying Simeon's since it has always been known for a bar, with great atmosphere, that serves food rather than a first rate restaurant. However, after learning of the change in ownership and reading two positive professional reviews we gave it a try and have not been disappointed. In fact, we are greatly surprised that... more
