Never been. Lived here a long time. Had to finally go. Fries were fresh out of the fryer. Nice and hot. Had a Lewiston lobster. Grilled was great.

We stopped by this super friendly, old-school hotdog joint and loved the experience. The staff were really welcoming! We tried the boiled red hot, grilled red hot, a chili dog, and half & half fries (fries + onion rings). I personally wasn’t a fan of the red hot, but the rest of my family really enjoyed them! The chili dog was massive and packed with flavor, and the fries and onion rings were perfectly crispy. Great portions, great energy!

Visited Simone‘s for the first time this week had lunch with my son. It’s just the type of place that you want to go back to the service was excellent. The atmosphere was a perfect hole in the wall restaurant and the conversation with the owner his wife and a nice lady who worked there made the whole experience complete and the food was really good too.

A true local gem—amazing people, incredible food, and genuinely great service. If you’re looking for that authentic Maine feel and vibe, this is the place. Great prices and even better folks.

Family-owned and operated for over 100 years. I have been coming here since I was a kid, and so did my Pèpére (grandfather). The atmosphere is reminiscent of an old French-Canadian diner. The space is a tad cramped, but that’s part of the charm. Don’t forget to say hi to Jimmy, Linda, and George!

If you are looking for a historic, no frills and affordable experience (or specifically for a hotdog) then this is your spot. Right by the park, this family-owned business just celebrated 50 years under the current family leadership who’s grandfather opened the original stand in the same location in 1908, later becoming the original permanent structure that is there today. You will most definitely meet the family when you visit.
They have Hotdogs (the red ones) with a variety of toppings including, chilli dogs, burgers of a few kinds with toppings and combo meals, fried chicken and fish sandwiches (quick diner kind), regular sandwiches like grilled chees, ham and cheese, etc., hand cut fries (the day I went – in pics I see the frozen kind have been used too), big onion rings (hey! you get to choose either or both), and a full breakfast menu, with daily sweets (looked like peanut butter cup cupcakes when I visited) and specials. Wednesday’s is a steamed dog for $1.50 a piece, I believe. Simones’ offers soups, salads and more too (I didn’t try on this visit). But most come here for the breakfast and the hotdogs, and the price.
Sit at the counter to watch the action, grab a table or take it to go. Drinks are grab-n-go from the cooler.
This is a family-run business that is a part of the community it serves. Sign the guest book and see who else has visited.

I really dig this place. Felt really old school and unchanged. The food was spot on.

Went here for lunch after many years. And for once it wasn’t for Red Snappers.
My Wife and I ordered a cheese steak and it was really good. It came quickly Erich was appreciated due to the fact my Wife couldn’t make up her mind for lunch. For me; this has always been a childhood favorite. Didn’t realize what I was missing for so many years until today. Thank you Simon’s we will be back soon.

A family business with salt-of-the-earth people and great food. Highly recommend stopping by and make sure to tell them if it’s your first time. They are very appreciative. Won’t go anywhere else for lunch in Lewiston.
