   Tried ac location first and was not fully sold. Glad we came to the original. Much better. ... not that ac was bad but it just needed some touches in a few areas of food

   We arrived at 4:00 PM. on a Friday There was easy seating and low level of noise. We were there to celebrate a birthday. They sang and gave a large slice of red velvet cake. The food was good portions and delicious. The pricing was average which made the experience a good value.

   Went to the one in Atlantic City. The food is very good I ordered the curry goat which comes with sautéed vegetables and bowl of white rice. They give you just enough to fill you up so no leftovers. My wife ordered the ribs so I helped her eat hers which were plenty. I ordered the rim punch which was nice & strong. The only downside side is the service which is slow and have to wait a long time for waiter to come take order and for food to come out. IfI do not know if it was due to number of people in the restaurant or they need to hire more staff. Would give 3 out of 5 stars due to service.

   Other than then the oxtails being tiny and not meaty, the food was absolutely EXCELLENT quite tasty/well seasoned, however, the service not so good. Staff is sufficiently friendly but apparently there isn't sufficient staff. A bit of a wait to get served at the bar, long wait for waitress, we ordered a platter but they neglected to give us plates, we requested water without ice- that never came. Waitress was friendly but she only checked on our table once and by that time we were almost finished dining. Additionally, wait staff should be given pads on which to write food orders as opposed to writing the orders on a napkin. We were disappointed and wished the service would have been as good as their food.

   Drinks took too long to come out. When my second drink finally arrived I didn’t want it anymore.

   This was my husband and my 4th time dining at this restaurant. We had a double date and EVERYONE loved the experience, from the exquisite food to the efficient & courteous staff to the wonderful pricing. Everything was AWESOME. We can’t wait for our next visit to Brooklyn just so we can dine at The Simpson ❤️❤️❤️

    I attended on a Friday afternoon, it was busy but overall the service was really good. After a short wait were seated and our server came over almost immediately. Once we ordered the food arrived within a reasonable time. We saw Chef Simpson and thanked him for the amazing food and hospitality 10/10 recommend!
