I went to Simps based on Tripadvisor comments. I was glad that I did. I had the Fried Chicken, greens, rice with gravy, brocolli and rice with a cornbread muffin and tea for about 875.

The food is homemade and very good. They give you a lot and you will eat more than you should because it is that good. I think its the best on the Island. more
