We recently visited this place the food was fine ! I especially liked the sauced beets with labneh. We ordered a steak, but it was kind of chewy. The waitress was cute, but honestly, the service wasn’t great — we had to wait quite a while to be seated, took a bit time to bring our food . It was also pretty cold inside because all the windows were open. But I liked the atmosphere stylish and cozy.

Very cute place, good service. The food was decent. I had the Tchoutchouka eggs but for the price I would have wanted two eggs and not overcooked (the yolk was hard)… Also the bread and coffee should be better.

Sunday brunches at simple are my favourite ! As you can see by yourself, there is nothing more to say than « Miam ! »

Favorite restaurant in Williamsburg. A bit off the beaten path on the more authentic Southside, this is an excellent chill choice for friends and lovers who want to actually talk with each other. The food is excellent and made with love. The owner and servers care about what they do and it shows. The best spot to sip vino outside and people watch in summer! My favorite menu items are the steak frittes, mussels, and chicken tagine – although I often go for the burger as well.

I went for breakfast with my best friend and I have to say it’s amazing! Very cozy place, service fast and kind and oh boy the food delicious!!
We ordered scrambled eggs with bacon and pancakes lemon and ricotta. The pancakes the best of my life. Usually they’re heavy and buttery, these were light and scenty we wanna talk about the cups? Super cute! Thank you guys!

Everything about our visit was perfect. Our service, the atmosphere, the food are so worth giving this place your business. Our food tasted so fresh and healthy. We all were satisfied with our dishes and left full and happy.

tried simple today + honestly left annoyed. $24 for a chicken cutlet that was way overly fried, improperly salted, and served completely plain — no sides, no garnish, just a sad little wedge of lemon. it tasted greasy, harsh, + borderline gross. felt like something i could have done better at home with frozen chicken patty. i know it’s a first world problem, but paying that much + leaving with such an unpleasant taste really disappointed me. the restaurant looks nice, but now i get why it was empty. looks aren’t everything. definitely won’t be back.
edit: please learn how to take critique gracefully instead of clapping back passive aggressively. not everyone liking your food does not mean there is a lack of respect. also, my just bare chicken patties are actually flavorful, juicy, and enjoyable unlike the dry and greasy chicken supreme i had from you. and yes, obviously it is hand butchered since most chicken is. what is odd is that you justify the plain presentation and high price by blaming food cost. you also seem pretty pressed by criticism, so i will wish you a better mood too.

Did you know that you can get delicious Algerian food at @simplecafebrooklyn in Williamsburg, Brooklyn!? The cafe is super cute and minimalist with an airy, natural vibe.
The tchoutchouka I had was surprisingly light and refreshing. Different from what I was expecting. It went so well with the bread.
I loved the crepes! The texture is so light and airy and the dates, apricots, and honey added just the right amount of sweetness to it.
I’m also obsessed with Algerian mint tea. I like my tea without sugar and it was such a nice closure to the meal.
I felt comfortably full afterwards after eating a variety of food. They also have a small shop attached that sells nice home goods! Loved the experience

This place was a walking distance from Moxy, I didn’t have a reservation but they still were able to find a spot. Loved this cute place, bought some cool stuff from here in addition to the food. Food was delicious, service was awesome.

we came for brunch and were really excited to try french-Algerian food, but we were really disappointed by the dishes we tried. a lot of us got the steak frites, and we all felt that the steak was lacking flavor/needed more salt and the fries were soggy. similarly, people who got the burger felt the same way that it was under seasoned. With french food, it doesn’t necessarily need a lot of different seasonings, but that means the quality of the ingredients need to shine, which we didn’t feel was the case.
