About

Simonette is an all-day café, bar, and bistro in Downtown Culver City, tucked inside the Palihotel on Van Buren Place. Inspired by roadside food halls in southern France, it blends the elegance of French cuisine with the easy warmth of an American neighborhood café. The menu is hearty yet refined, with dishes like beef bourguignon, ratatouille, mussels, and a Dijon burger that guests rave about. The bar pours a curated selection of wines, beers, and inventive house cocktails, and happy hour runs Monday through Friday from 3 to 6pm. The outdoor patio is a favorite for relaxed solo visits and group hangouts alike.
