Simp McGhee's

I gotta say WOW to the pecan crusted trout. I'll definitely try to eat here every time I'm in town. Victoria was super attentive and kept our drinks flowing. Classy old bar with great food!

Simp McGhee's was amazing. Let's start off with the parking, it was plentiful. The service was great. Everyone was extremely nice. I ordered the wings as an app. They were very good and the sauce was amazing. I ordered the dean's delight as my entree. The steak was cooked perfectly and exactly how I asked(Medium rare). The pasta was a little overdone but that was no biggie compared to all of the flavor in the dish. Overall, it was great and highly recommend it. I live in LA, but if I'm ever back in the area, I will for sure be going back.

Wow! The food is incredible!! This place is definitely expensive, but it's good quality and so worth it!! I was looking to eat on the cheaper side of the menu so I got the grilled chicken sandwich and added Bacon and cheese. Omg it was definitely one of the BEST chicken sandwiches I've ever had!! Also the service was great too. 10/10 would recommend! :)

Simp's is my go-to recommendation, and my favorite, in Decatur. I never go without getting the side salad with the house dressing (a feta ranch) and a cup of she-crab soup. Other favorites are the filet (always tasty and cooked perfectly), fried green beans, and Dean's Delight (pasta in a creamy cajun sauce topped with a small filet and shrimp). It can be a bit loud downstairs but we much prefer sitting there than upstairs. Nice outdoor seating.

Great dining in a charming location. Red Snapper, Lamb Chops everything is fantastic.

We waited over 30 minutes to get our drink (beer) order, then another hour to get our food order in. I told the waitress to not worry about my food. I ended up leaving, passed my buddy $5.00 for my beer and the food took about 1 hour to even get he said. Once their food arrived, it was not only wrong, but cold. This place is horrible, under staffed, and I highly recommend never even going there. McDonald's is better.

The wife and I came here for dinner and had The Ponchatrain with fresh Red Snapper which was absolutely epic and the best fish based dish I can ever remember eating. We also had The Crawfish egg rolls and the seafood stuffed mushrooms. The food was nothing short of extraordinary as was the service. Total bill was $101 but was worth every penny and I will definitely do this again. This was only my 2nd time eating here. The 1 st time was 20 years ago and it was good then. This meal was even better and I would rate it as epic! Will definitely be back! 6 Stars!

When we checked in at our hotel I asked the front desk where they recommended for supper. Their response was a resounding Simp McGhee's. I thought this was a good sign, so we headed over. At 7PM on a Saturday night there was ample street parking within a reasonable distance at no cost. When we arrived we told the hostess that there were 4 of us. She said that there were no tables downstairs and she didnt know about upstairs. After she confirmed that there weren't any tables available, we got put on the waitlist and was quoted 20 minutes. We chose to wait outside, since there isnt really room to do so inside. It appears that normally they would also have patrons dine outside, but it had recently rained and that wasnt happening at this time. While waiting there was a family that came out and she made comments about how bad it was. Hearing this it made me question her about further details, which she readily provided. I was informed that her food was way overcooked, as was every other persons at their table. She did mention that usually the food is really good, but not tonight. Another patron that I saw leaving I asked about their experience and they told me that they never actually got their food until they spoke to the manager and then it had been so long that they just took the food to go. Neither of these were reassuring. When the hostess came outside and told us that she had a table we headed inside. This table shouldnt have even existed. it was so close to the other tables that there was no way for the servers to get around. We tried to position adults and children to give the most room possible, but found out within moments that it was going to be a problem. The hostess sat another table behind ours, and the people couldnt even get to their chairs. We had to stand up to allow them to get past. Meanwhile on the other side of our table there were 7-10 people that were standing incredibly close to the table while waiting on one of their own. I was uncomfortable with how closely everyone was jammed into the space and didnt want to eat a meal that way. After waiting for 15+ minutes for a waitress to come by and even get our drink order I decided to leave. Maybe tonight was an off night, but I will never know. Not going to be in the area again as far as I know, and even if I am I won't try this place again. I can't comment on the food, as none of the tables that i saw even had any.

Traveling through the area and stumble upon this place. This place covers all your needs. Upstairs is fine dining atmosphere and downstairs is upscale bar atmosphere suitable for any type of occasion. Service was outstanding and food was excellent! A little pricey but the food quality, service, and atmosphere was well worth it. Our group had the Filet Mignon $35, Prime Rib $34, and Wings $10 with a wedge salad $5. Protein was prepared perfectly and the wings were excellent. We'll be back when ever we're in the area again.

Great food with a Cajun slant. Great local feel with nice menu which includes classic New Orleans dishes.
