Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Dongan Hills

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.

My rice was was burnt and when I asked for replacement it was mushy, when I asked for another another one apparently the chef said it was gonna be just as mushy as well.

My party and I have been here a few times. Everything any of us ever ordered was delicious. Kudos to the chef and kitchen staff. Bartender was on point, too. Cocktails were excellent. The service is always excellent. The ambiance is superb. The architecture and interior design are beautiful, especially the ceiling and woodwork in the main room with the fireplace. It is pricey once you start adding rounds of drinks to the tab, but it's worth it. We will return often. Best fine dining I've had on Staten Island by far.

Cozy and delicious! I had the burger and putting blue cheese on it was one of the better decisions of my life.

If you’re in lower Manhattan and love cigars, this is a must. Cost is comparable for anywhere in NYC. Well worth it.
