    Salad
    Vanessa E.

    Cute little restaurant, not much for the vegetarian. The food was good, though. Our server was fast and polite. I had the mushroom ravioli and it was pretty good. The crawfish etouffee was a little interesting looking. Bathroom was decently clean. A nice little upscale spot!

    Prime rib and potatoes...i wouldn't recommend this.

    Only limited options from 5-8 pm. The drinks were okay and the food was not like I expected it to be!

    Dean's Delight

    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.

    Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Bacon and Cheese added on with a side of SUPER crispy (delicious) fries! Chefs kiss! It's was amazing!!

    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! :)

    The food was amazing! We ordered take out and everything was fresh and hot. The crawfish egg rolls were the best!

    It was hot but we had ceiling fans but the management didn't know how to get them on. The food was really good. Little confused but sweet.

    Food and service were wonderful! I highly recommend the She Crab soup and ask about the restaurants history while you're there. ENJOY!

    Kimmie's Kitchen & Social House - 12oz ribeye

    Quick take: food was pretty good, decent prices, great drink, will come back!…read moreCame in around 5pm on Friday 2/27 and only one person at the bar. Nice lady told us to seat ourselves where we want, GM initially waited on us. He was friendly. Wife said he made the margarita and it was great! A little stronger than my wife likes, just under what I like. After a couple sips she loved it! He recommended fried catfish and the ribeye as favorites. We tried both. Ribeye: cooked nicely, not seasoned enough for my taste. I would order and try this again, $26, with two sides. Steak was tender and was a nice cut of ribeye. Salad was solid. Mashed potatoes ok. Could have used a piece of toast I think. Next time a different side from mashed taters. Catfish: GREAT! Light, fluffy, fried perfectly. Hush puppies were good, a little thick though. Fried okra was also great! Cole slaw could be hit or miss for folks.. i thought it was good, wife didn't like. Should have come out in mashed potato sized bowl to eat easier. Some dislikes: 1. Steak not seasoned well. But I'd try it again. 2. Some things missing off of our plates initially (tartar sauce, mashed potatoes.) No big deal but if it was busier I think we may not have seen them for a while. 3. Person bringing single bowl of mashed potatoes holding with one hand, palm down over potatoes. Pretty sure it looked like hand touched top of potatoes. 4. Not sure if this is a smoking establishment but a guy at the bar lit a cigar. But he must've been asked to take it outside because he put it out. Glad he did because we had a baby. Not sure why he thought he could smoke it in there if he hadn't before. Overall, good visit and I look forward to trying more things and eating that catfish again.

    The nachos and catfish were pretty good. Burger and hamburger steak were tough and unpleasant…read more The wings were very small. The food took over an hour with only one other table occupied but the server was very good. The mold in the bathroom takes it from 3 stars to 1.
