    The food was good but the place was really loud. Service was slow and they seemed understaffed although the place was only half filled.

    Thanks for dining with us Bruce, and for the honest feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the food, but we're sorry the noise and service missed the mark. We’re always working to improve. If you’d like to share more, feel free to reach out to our GM Meilissa- we’d love the chance to turn your next visit into a 5-star one!

    The Wesley Lewis Quartet was fabulous and an extremely top notch jazz group. Hard to believe we hadn't heard of them. The jam session was fun to behold. Catfish and cheesy grits were generous and tasty. Alysia was an excellent server. Overall, highly recommended.

    Thanks so much, David! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the Wesley Lewis Quartet and had a great night with tasty catfish, cheesy grits, and top-notch service from Alysia. We’ll be sure to pass on the kind words. Hope to see you again soon for more jazz and Southern comfort!

    We went on a live music night just before the band started. The food was delicious and smoky. Great flavor (I had the pulled pork and my date had the fried chicken). The band was Awesome!!! (It was named KC something or other). The service was a little slow and the band got kinda loud as we started to leave. But it was a great time!
    Black-Eyed Sally'sResponded 5 days ago
    Thanks for coming out, Kevin! Glad you loved the smoky pulled pork and fried chicken, plus the live band vibes. Sorry the service was a bit slow and the noise got loud as you were leaving—we’re working on that. If you have any ideas to make your next visit 5 stars, feel free to reach out to our GM Melissa. Hope to see you again soon for more great food and music!

    The Easter Brunch was better than we expected. The food was so good. Everything we tried was delicious and they kept bringing out new pans of food. We did not have to wait around and everyone seemed to be enjoying the food, music and overall vibe. Everyone was friendly and many tables were heard laughing and having a great time with family and friends. So happy we made this reservation.

    Great food at a reasonable price. Our server was very attentive and friendly. We were celebrating a birthday and went for the live entertainment and jam session. Black-Eyed Sally's did not disappoint!
