Both my wife and I had the chicken fried steak this evening and found it to be way overcooked and the white gravy was like paste. We've ordered this a number of times and it's usually decent. But tonight it was lousy. Might do it again. But then we might not .

Had to stop by and have a delicious Chicken Fried Steak, it was just like I remembered it! A little disappointed to learn they no longer serve cornbread, but they do have breakfast now, so perhaps next time we will give that a try... overall good, tasty food and great customer service and atmosphere.

The chicken fried chicken is one of my favorite restaurants dishes now. It had been years since I went to Black Eyed Pea. I had never been as an adult until recently and the food was great. It's an underrated restaurant. Every single bite of the chicken fried chicken was delicious. The rolls were also good. The fries were a little underwhelming but they weren't bad. The cinnamon apples were a fun side to have with my meal. I'm looking forward to returning.

We had never been here before & as we arrived our host was so kind & opened the door for us seated us promptly! Our waiter was super attentive with great energy it really made the trip worth it & will be coming back forsure ! They easily made us feel welcomed from the start & the food was generous portions along with great prices! Great experience over all.

DONT EVER EAT HERE, This place sucked so bad all the servers don’t know what they are doing the food was not good whatsoever. The place smelt like dog and old people. when me and my family got our food we got nothing we asked for. And the food looked 3d printed and was not good AT ALL. I do not recommend this place at all.

This used to be an OK place to go and get a filling, home style meal. Last time I was there I was disappointed so I decided to give it one more try. I will say that the one bright spot here is generally the servers and mine was good. But so much has changed - they used to bring you a basket of corn bread and rolls and they did away with the corn bread during COVID and never brought it back. They would have honey on the table for it (but sadly, they told me long ago they had to stop leaving the honey on the table because people were stealing it). The rolls are OK but nothing special, and the two rolls were accompanied by a tiny amount of butter (not even enough for one roll) in a little paper cup. They also did away with the lunch specials, which were a perfect size (one slice of meat loaf instead of two, for example). Now you can only get the full-sized meal, which is a lot for lunch. In general, the menu has far fewer choices than it used to have. None of my food was very warm, and the brown gravy (which I ordered on the side) had a scum of hardened gravy on top. The mashed potatoes were pretty hard (and cold) and the kernel corn was swimming in water. The soda was flat. I know I could have requested that the server warm up my food, but I was in a bit of a hurry so I just ate it as it was. Families with kids seem to like this place, as well as older people, but I find most of the food to be pretty bland. And this location badly needs to be remodeled. They tore out the carpet a while ago (that was good) but left a polished cement floor. The tables are old and it's one of those places where everything just generally feels sticky. I'm sorry I don't enjoy the food more, because it's one of the few places left where you can get this type of food. But in the end, my meat loaf lunch with a soft drink was well over $20 when I added a tip. I know everything is expensive now, but that's a lot of money for an unsatisfying lunch.

While I only come here for pick up, this is the only take out restaurant staff I know of who consistently gets the orders right! Sides, sauces, rolls, main entre... I never need to circle back for anything. Great team!
This particular location seemed really dirty and not well maintained. It smelled terrible inside but I couldn’t tell if it was the restaurant’s lack of general cleanliness or the clientele, many of which were probably wearing adult diaper. Because the smell was so bad, it affected the taste of the food. The wait staff was really friendly.
