To Peal Haskins or Peal2Haskins: My name is Desiree I answer the phones at the Blackeyed Pea. I answer 50- 100 phone calls in two hours between 6-8pm. I am betting your friend worked for a less busy location. We are the number one store in Colorado, and the busiest. I have two lines 15 tables and I am also the bartender. I do the work of three people. I work for 4-10pm with no break, and If you held it was because there where probably 3-5 people that were in head of you. It is impossible for me to take two orders at the same... read more

Call in for "Carry out" service means automatic HOLD! – I'm really not interested in blasting a restaurant needlessly as it appears some here did. We like the food, but the service....? Our complaint is for carry out at the Belleview / Broadway location. The lady that answers the phone is Desiree. If I call 52 times in a year (once a week), I'm put on hold 52 times. Sometimes long enough to hang up and call back. I asked a friend that used to manage a Black Eyed Pea about this practice and he said there would be no reason fo... read more

Pathetic waste – Bland food, portions cut down to near zero. A hamburger and onion rings consists of *4* rings 2" diameter. No customer appreciation. Greedy.

The worst example of "southern" cooking ever! – I spent my whole life in the south, with a grandmother that showed me everything she did in the kitchen. So believe me when I tell you that the ONLY think Black Eyed Pea does in the kitchen is OPEN A CAN!!! The food is so bland, it is sacrilege to even include it in the soul food category here. And, hello, any self-respecting southern cook knows that cornbread is made from WHITE cornmeal. I understand that this is a chain, and that should be considered when reviewing. But the b... read more

This mom and pop spot delivers hearty home-style fare without black eyes to the budget. – In Short Old-fashioned wallpaper, farmhouse kitsch and Elvis trinkets create the vibe of a countrified Mississippi eatery. Budget-minded families, 20-somethings and 9-to-5 types pack the place weekdays. The reasonably priced home-cookin' is large on portions and (generally) flavor. Choose from a load of comfort meals: meat loaf, pot roast, peach cobbler, etc. Chicken-and-rice soup is a perfect cold-killing classic, and chicken-fried ste... read more

The Black-eyed Pea is for me. – My dog really likes the left-overs, and I cannot imagine there not being left-overs from the Black-eyed Pea. They give enormous portions. Actually, the kid portions are pretty big too. The food is very good, but if you are looking for a low fat meal, you ought to go somewhere else. They have a little bar in the resteraunt, but it is really just so you can have a drink with your meal if you chose to do so. I do not think that many people would go there just for drinks. I have never seen an into... read more

its a pathetic state of affairs if people consider Black-Eyed Pea a top choice for takeout or for food of any kind - the Denver area does actually have some good restaurants but does suffer from an over abundance of chain eateries. Why do take out when even the most amateur chef can make far better food at home in 10 minutes than could ever be obtained at Black-Eyed Pea - Yuck!

Great American Food – Huge portions, a concept that "cares". Craveable food. The "new decor" is fantastic.
