Our server was very attentive. Prompt service. The food critique as follows. I ordered the chicken ceaser salad. It was overloaded with bottled parmesisean cheese and croutons. To the point I could not eat it. I also ordered the French Dip, excellent. Fries over cooked. My husband ordered the Haddock soup he raved about it. He also had the Tuna Steak was very good but way to much Peppercorn. The food prices are what you would expect for a steakhouse dining establishment. Sorry for some of my mis-spelled words.

If you're looking for an awesome Wisconsin fishfry. Go elsewhere!!! this was hands down the worst fish fry I ever had ever. It was a large one piece haddock that was deep fried or something and was black to dark brown in color the crust was shiny and smooth rock hard. When I cut it open oil leaked out.. crazy nasty... . The cook must have quit. Because this was a joke . They need to revamp their fish fry ..I predict this place is going out of business.. it was Friday night 6:00 p.m. and the place was empty.

Let me just start out by saying, the best part of the meal was the Old Fashion! Took my husband to Simpson’s for his birthday dinner this past Saturday night. I had the queen prime & he had the New York strip. He said his was ok. Not great. My prime was horrible! It was done fine but the cut & taste was something to be desired! It had so much grizzle in the meat, I had a hard time even cutting it. It was more like a Ribeye, which I don’t like for that reason , And it wasn’t all that tender. When I order a prime rib, it should be able to be cut with a knife, not a saw! When you go out to eat at a nice restaurant, and pay $110.00 for 2 drink & 2 meals, you would think there product would be better than good. I tried to eat my leftovers and can’t just not good. The waiteress was ok. But didn’t seem to concerned. She would just glide by our table while asking how everything was. She didn’t give us a chance to tell her how awful our meals were. I guess they got our money so what do they care now. I just hope others don’t run into this. We would have been better off going to our local restaurant and had a pizza, saved the driving and a lot of money!!! Now we know and will never be back!

Disappointing. Prime rib was fatty and tough. Salad was basic and the potato was cold and hard. The waitress was nice but obviously had too many table throughout the restaurant which affected the service. She did offer to replace the steak with a 6 ounce steak but I was over it at that point. Gave have her a 25 percent tip because she did try. Spent 200 dollars . Not worth the price. Try harder for your next customers. I won’t return. Much better restaurants out there.

Oh my goodness. I regret not writing this review sooner because now I can't remember the name of our waiter. But we got to Waupaca pretty late on a Monday in September and went to a different restaurant at 9. They said their kitchen was open, then came back and said... Just kidding our hours changed ...today. We didn't have time or many options on a Monday night, but came across Simpson's. We were apologetic for being so late, but they made us feel SO WELCOME. I'm glad the previous restaurant had awful service because then we wouldn't have had the opportunity to come here. We were celebrating our anniversary (although the waiter didn't know that) and the food was absolutely wonderful. And to top it off, I had the best Old Fashioned I've ever had in my entire life. Props to the bartender! I had the mushroom soup (perfectly seasoned), and the broiled fish (amazing sauce). My husband had fried fish with perfectly cooked but slightly crunchy vegetables. He still talks about how great his meal was... Weeks later.
If you made it to the end... Go here. It's fantastic.

The broiled haddock was delicious! I had it with the whipped potatoes, which were great. My salad was really good with Simpson's celery seed dressing.
Service was slow Food was not as described on menu Alfredo had onions which was not in description

We have put Simpson on our annual visit list for years. Disappointed in the food and service this year. My $42 filet was over seasoned and charred. We were seat by a table of 18 which was our servers table as well.

We usually love it at Simpsons however last night when there was only a total of four tables, all of them were served before us. It took 45 minutes for us to get our food, and nobody had said anything to us. Also when I requested to have my leftovers boxed, she took it to the kitchen and never returned.

How long has Simpsons been in business?
Great food and staff were excellent.
