Simple Bar & Grill

Had dinner and drinks here during snowzilla… greatly expanded menu. Very casual. Owner very friendly.

I love the fact you can order for pick up from Unilocal.And menu continues to grow w/​some great choices. Love this place!

Great neighborhood bar! You’ll feel welcome the second you walk through the door. I’ve only had the rice balls but they were fantastic, and drinks are cheap! So you’ve got a friendly atmosphere, good food and cheap drinks… it really is that Simple. See what I did there?

Good beer selection and TVs as far as the eye can see. This is a Redskins bar– perfect for NFL game watching. Their fish n chips were delicious, and the bartenders were friendly. For that alone, Simple Bar is a sports bar find, particularly in the Brightwood area. I agree with other reviewers though– their prices are a bit high for what you’re getting.

I went last night out with a few of my friends and didn’t think much of this place. I ordered their Simple wings (Buffalo) w/​Blue cheese and much to my surprise they were actually really good. My waiter was a little rude, but he was a much older man and I wasn’t really bothered by his tone; I actually thought he was funny. He was also a big help when I was time to order my drinks which I ordered a margarita and 802 Cider (really good). My check only totaled about $ 20. I would return to this place.

Delivery order while in town for work.
Burger with coleslaw, on point, although the fries a very salty tonight.
But the wings…6 wings for $ 7, get outta here… and your forget my sauce. That’s two strikes Simple. That’s why you get 3 (really more like 2.5).

This time my experience at the simple bar wasn’t any good. The bartender charge me $ 27.47 dollars for two beers and 6 wings.
I left her 20% and it was something around $ 7.35 dollars. But the total amount charged in my account is $ 37.00 WTF?
Are taking the customers money just like that with no fucking shame…

First time here. Got a drink from Mike and the ambience is great. Met Amy, Beatrice and Will
:)

We could not be happier to live around the corner from Simple. Everybody at Simple, staff and guests alike, are warm and friendly. The service is prompt and charming and the food is really good.
When in doubt, go to Simple.

Great food, Great selection of Drinks, Great Clientele and most importantly a Great owner who is always there and genuinely cares about his customers and his bar. If only all bars in DC where like this!

Awesome environment. Great selection of beer and food is delicious! I had the mushroom and spinach quesadilla with grilled chicken. Aww yea!
Owner and staff are friendly and very welcoming. The décor is very sports and comic book centric.

I am about a week late on writing this review but wanted to make sure it got on Unilocal.My buddy and I spent the day at the near by Citi Open Tennis tournament. We were both very hungry and had no interest in eating food at the event. I pulled out my cell phone and looked for a good place to eat before we both traveled home across the DMV. I found Simple Bar & Grill and we decided to give it a try. We walked in at an odd hour. There was probably no more than two other customers there. The owner was fixing something behind the bar. As soon as we walked in we were greeted with a super friendly hello. Our drinks came out very fast and the owner gave us his recommendations based on what we felt like. I had the carne asada sandwich and my buddy got the fish and chips. We were both very happy with the choice. Clean plate club for both of us.

This place is great. The owner is super friendly and the vibe in there is good. I’m a vegetarian so I usually get the tofu bites, which are really good. Some places don’t know what to do with tofu but these are breaded, fried, and super crispy. I’ll be back for food and to watch sports in the future.

I first came here for a brunch party and unfortunately didn’t get the chance to eat. Kept hearing about this place so I finally came in. Salmon sandwich is pretty tasty. The fries are amazing!!! My roomie tried the lomo saltado… amazing too! Staff was friendly and quick. Tons of tvs and daily specials

Simple is great! Disregard the uninspired logo outside, inside is a real jewel of a place run by truly wonderful people. The food is very friendly to both vegetarians and carnivores, featuring basic American fare as well as more varied dishes such as the hot-​dog-​studded Macho Platter. Service is great, and as everyone on Unilocal has noted, Wilfredo and Masha are warm and gracious hosts.

«Simple Bar and Grill» matches all of my expectations for a chill neighborhood spot: Friendly owner, great food, reasonable drink prices, a relaxed neighborhood crowd, and happy hour specials. There is a happy hour food item daily, and when I visited, it was a delicious tempura battered chicken sandwich. Oh, there were appetizer items as well offered as part of the HH menu, like wings, and mozzarella sticks…
I had allot of Sangria, and will go back for more.

When searching for food options while on vacation, you have two options: eat when hungry from the first chain or semi-​clean place you find or dig for the gems of a city. This is a little gem that if you can you should support. It’s owned by Wilfredo, a man who looks like Anil Kapoor, a man who just wants you to enjoy yourself.
I’m from Boston and when your from out of town your want good food, «a clean well-​lighted place,» and a place where you feel immediately welcomed that is what this place is: simple.
I had Jerk wings that had a nice crunch and glaze as well as mixed fajitas that did their job well.

Simple is a great neighborhood bar and grill in the Brightwood/​Petworth section of Washington, D.C. Good food and an outstanding selection of beer and spirits at the bar. The friendliness of the staff is second to none. Our first night there and my wife and I found ourselves talking to the owner– Wilfredo– for nearly 25 minutes. If you want to experience a nice neighborhood spot serving good food and drinks being served by great people then Simple is the place for you!

Five stars for Simple because it is everything you could want in a neighborhood bar/​restaurant – particularly one serving an underserved neighborhood like Brightwood. They have a full bar, but I usually stick with beer. There’s a decent-​if-​unexciting beer selection, and they always have a couple of kinds of DC Brau on tap. The margaritas are also surprisngly good – not overly sweet, but very flavorful.
The food is what I would call top-​notch pub food, with a Tex-​Mex flair. You have your standards (hamburgers, nachos, BBQ sandwich, etc.) to along with items such as tacos and burritos. All are great. It’s not high-​end dining, but that’s not why you come to a place like this anyway.
Best of all though, the atmosphere is as welcoming and inviting as it gets. Wilfredo, the owner, is awesome, as is Masha (hope I am spelling her name correctly), who is usually working the bar and is as friendly as can be. Sometimes it can take the kitchen a little bit to get the food out, but you’re probably sitting at the bar nursing a drink, chatting with your neighbors and watching a Caps game, so what’s the rush?
In a city overrun by high-​end concept restaurants and pricey cocktail bars, the aptly named Simple is a refreshing blast of non-​pretentious air.
