#1
Simone's Bar
7.7
A Pilsen bar that works as a hangout first and a burger stop second, but that’s exactly the appeal—order something solid, post up, and let the room do the rest. Best when you treat it like a burger-and-beer night with a little edge and late-evening energy.
Must-Try Dishes:
House Burger, Chicken Sandwich, Fries
What makes it special: A Pilsen bar where a burger order fits the night perfectly.

Must-Try Dishes:
Wagyu Burger, Wings, Fries
What makes it special: A Pilsen sports bar where the burger is built for the night.

Family Friendly Favorites
A fast, counter-service stop where the move is using the burger as a cheap, filling alternative to the usual hot dog order. It’s a simple late-night or quick-lunch play—no frills, just a direct hit when you need something greasy and immediate.

Double Cheeseburger, Triple Cheese Burger, Chili Cheese Fries
What makes it special: A fast Pilsen counter where the cheeseburger is the sneaky best move.

Cheeseburger, Fries, Chicken Wings
What makes it special: A true neighborhood bar where a burger order makes sense.
