First time at The Simpsons and I must say it was excellent!! My husband and I had no regrets. The food and drinks was the best so far in all the Jamaican foods we ate in Brooklyn. The server was always checking in to endure all was ok , never felt ignored . Was recommended by a friend to us and we already started telling friends to check it out.
