    My first time @ the Simpson and my overall experience was really good. I made reservations and I was concerned about a wait although I had a reservation because of the amount of people waiting for a table when I got there. Thankfully, we were seated promptly. My wife and myself had the Rum Punch and it was fantastic. We had the bourbon bbq wings as an appetizer and it was good. Service was fantastic as our waitress was very attentive to us. Overall, the food was very good. I would go back again based on my experience.

    Having never been and seeing this spot turn over many times through the years, we weren’t too sure. Well, wow. Exceeded our expectations for sure. We live nearby and very frequently (at least twice a week) dine at many of the spots nearby, this will 100% be added to our regular rotation! The service was outstanding (Adrian, I think?) and their suggestions were spot on. Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu! Keep doing everything you’re doing, you just gained a regular customer. ❤️

    Native was definitely an experience. I didn’t expect it to be so much fun. Service was great. I really loved that the manager came around to make sure everything was good and even joined in on the dancing. I definitely made a great choice in coming here for my birthday and would definitely go back.
