For my Birthday, I returned to my Southern roots (or the closest I can find in Denver Metro)! Starter: - Cornbread (complimentary) -- They seem to have added some kernels of corn in the dough, and they add the needed texture, moisture, and freshness! Well done! - Wedge Salad ($6.99). It fills the entire plate and is in a meal by itself! Entree: - Crispy Fried Catfish w/ two sides ($20.99). Two large filets (about 6" long and 4" wide) are delicately battered and not overly coated with cornmeal like other places. -- Catfish is delicate, so the breading is key. Cornmeal tends to overpower the fish's flavor, so I appreciate the lightly seasoned, lightly coated filets. RECOMMENDED! (Photos attached) Sides: - Fried Okra. I love fried Okra, and Black Eyed Pea cooks them perfectly. - Baked Squash Casserole. It was always my favorite, but the recipe has changed. It was a little too sweet, not enough onions and breadcrumbs. Maybe just an off day for the Chefs, so I'll give them the benefit of a doubt. Service: Friendly, prompt, and quick with the refills and checking on your satisfaction. EXCELLENT! Overall: I'm probably biased, but I've a been a fan of Black-Eye Pea for 30 years. They have always maintained consistency, quality and great portions for the price. My Wife and I will return. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Ambiance: All Black-eyed Peas have the same design. Clean, nostalgic, and comfortable. Overall: If you want a consistent meal that is always tasty and provides plenty of food, Black-eyed Pea is your comfortable choice. read more

We found reviews for black-Eyed Pea and their fabulous cinnamon rolls. To our surprise the restaurant In Northglenn doesn't even serve breakfast. Needless to say we were disappointed and almost walked out, but ordered a burger instead. It was ok but nothing to write home about. Service was also mediocre, I don't think we need to go back. read more

Haven't been to one of these since 1996. And omg it did not disappoint. It was just like a remembered as a kid, lots of food and very filling. But this time I got to share ot with my husband and son on our trip. If im ever back in Colorado I will absolutely be back. Our waitress was amazing, attentive, funny and sweet. read more

Black-Eyed Pea - Chicken Fried Steak - American Near Me - Northglenn, Colorado

We recently dined at Black Eyed Pea and had a very concerning experience regarding a gluten allergy. My wife has celiac disease and we made that clear when ordering. Despite informing the staff, she was exposed to gluten. What was even more disappointing than the exposure itself was the complete lack of concern afterward. When we mentioned the allergy issue, no manager came to speak with us. No one checked on her. No one apologized. There was no follow-up whatsoever. Food allergies are serious. Even if mistakes happen, the proper response is to show care, concern, and accountability. The absence of any managerial response or basic courtesy made the situation worse. We left feeling unheard and disregarded. Unfortunately, based on this experience, we cannot recommend this location/Black Eyed Pea to anyone! Due to this unfortunate experience, we will no longer be returning to Black Eyed Pea at any locations! read more

It was late, did not realize they closed at 9, so 20 minutes before walked in and didn't want to cause a problem for the staff and asked if they were good. They said yes and seated us. Angela was our waitress and cannot say enough good things about her. Very kind and she knew we were worried about keeping them late and reassured us it was fine. The level of service was top notch. Friendly, some nice banter and quick on the refills. I will ask for her next time I go back. In my case ordered the chopped beefsteak and was confusing it with Furrs Cafeteria, another great memory location. It was everything I had remembered and my daughter ate a bunch of my meal too. The rolls were perfectly baked and she was kind enough to send a coupe of them home with us A great walk down memory lane, but also a place to build new memories. Definitely a great place for a meal. read more

I had the Sr Chicken fried steak. It was very, very good and huge. Enough for a second meal. The fried okra is very nice very yummy. The shrimp grilled with Cajun seasoning is good. The mac & cheese is very good. It even rivals homemade. The cooked carrots were very good. And of course, the rolls are always wonderful. A nice thing about this place is the drink is included with the meal.We will be back. Our waitress was very friendly and efficient. And she checked on us often. read more

Good food in a relatively quiet setting. Clientele tends to be older folks. There is a bar too. I am a fan of liver & onions with black eyed peas as my side but there are many more sides and lots of menu options. read more

For the second time in a row, I got home after picking up my order to find the wrong sides included with my meal and a missing order of cinnamon apples. Called the restaurant and was told they could not do anything because it was ordered online so now is a problem door dash must resolve. Was told if I had called in and ordered it, they could help. Seems like an awkward way to offer customer service. The receipt on the bag was correct. What was in the bag was wrong. Not a happy customer after a very long day of work. read more

Our server Britney was super friendly! Our food came out fairly quickly and it was a decent price for a family of 5. The food was nice and hot, tasted great. The restaurant itself was a little dark but the music was good and all the staff were overall friendly! Would definitely come back! read more

The food‍ Why do we continue to pay high prices for low valued food. My shepherd's had very little to no ground beef, the menu called for peas, mine had string beans and a hefty serving of mash to hide all of its sins I called and they said they'll make it good the next time we're in. Is there an option to not give a star?? read more

My son and I frequent this location at least twice a month. We like to sit in the same booth by the bar and Amber is always our waitress. Amber is incredibly pleasant and she is definitely one of the reasons why we come back to this establishment the food is amazing. It's always hot and fresh. Everyone is always smiling and the vibe is just good. Overall I highly recommend. We love the chicken fried steak. read more

Not my kind of restaurant but service is excellent, food is cooked well, and staff take pride in their work.

Delivery driver was prompt and courteous, the food was good as well, and having a private dinner in my hotel room was priceless. Everything we ordered showed up, the food was still hot when it arrived, and most importantly it was billed correctly to my credit card. 5 and Thank you! read more

Service was excellent and the food was really good. So much, I couldn't eat it all. My wife had pot roast stuffed baked potato, equally good. The fresh baked rolls was like eating a cloud. Pillowy soft and Scrumptious. We'll be back. read more

Black-Eyed Pea - Cobb salad with grilled Mahi Mahi. Honey mustard and bleu cheese salad dressing and bleu cheese crumbles - American Near Me - Northglenn, Colorado

Love the traditional style. The food is awesome. The service is always great. Hard to find these old school recipes anymore.

The worst meal I've ever had at Black Eyed Peas. I chose the marinated pork chop meal and my pork chop was not marinated and dry as hell my potatoes were good but the gravy that was covering it was bland as hell so they replaced my dried pork chop with an overcooked chicken fried chicken with with more bland gravy on top. Usually you never lose that Black Eyed Peas but today was a real loser. read more

Ok so here it is 2020 my last review for this place was back in 2016. Have you ever heard the saying ,if it's not broke dont fix it? Well Black eyed pea has stuck to this mantra. My wife was in the mood for some fried chicken so she threw this restaurant into the ring of options so I decided since it's been awhile since we have been here I opted to go here. I must just say that we were seated in the bar area again,which I think they have made the booths smaller ,lol, and honestly I should have said something about not really being comfortable but I didn't. Our server was Ashley. I could kind of pick up that she wasn't the most seasoned server but in all honesty she killed it. Whoever trained her was on point!!!! She was both friendly, readily available, but not hovering. And when we did need something , she was quick to explain that let me deliver these drinks or such and was quick about it. Our meal was brought out like it should be, Drinks, salad/appetizers, meal, and yes dessert . I would just like to say that if you want a good meal this is the place to go. Like anything prices are increasing but you get what you pay for and be warned I think that they've increased the size of the Texas size chicken fried steak!! It wouldn't even fit on the plate!! Great job B-E-P If you can ask for Ashley, she will not disappoint. And yes I would definitely recommend! read more

I hadn't been to a Black Eyed Pea since I was a kid. Felt nostalgic and decided to go for lunch. We walked out after looking at the menu for about 30 seconds. $25 for chicken fried steak? Almost $20 for a 5 piece chicken tender meal??? High prices for oversized portions of comfort cafeteria food. Kinda reminded me of all that is wrong with America. Plus the decor (inside and out) looked as if it hadn't been updated in about 30 years. I won't even attempt to go back. read more

My husband and I grabbed lunch here today, a Thursday. The place was packed because they have a Senior menu. For whatever reason, we weren't given one and my husband is a senior? Anyway, we were promptly greeted and seated. This is a very large restaurant. Decor is very casual. Maria came and took our drink order. Our drinks were delivered and our waitress showed up shortly afterwards. She was very pleasant and capable. She took our orders and answered questions. Our salads and rolls and cornbread came out right away. I had the chicken fried chicken. The portions are large, and I knew this, so I ended up taking more than half Of this home for dinner. My husband ordered liver and onions . I'm just grateful for a restoration serves this, so I don't have to make it for him. There is a HH, but as best I can tell, it's only $1 off appraisers from 3-6. Seniors menu available. Breakfast served Saturday and Sunday 8-11 am. Moderately large just because there are so many people in here, constantly. read more

Bad start to out visit on Tuesday, 11/13/24; we walked in the front door, but no host or hostess in sight. Waited several minutes, still no one, some other people came in behind us, we all waited some more, still no one. I finally walked back to the bar area to see if I could find anyone to seat us and encountered the manager chatting up some customers. He gave me a look and said "Can I help you?" to which I replied "Yeah, we're looking for someone to seat us please." He gave me another look and in a snarky tone of voice, informed me that he had been helping other customers. I said "Sure, no problem" and he proceeded to seat us. After we had finished part of our meal and had set one of our plates out on the edge of the table, he breezed by, grabbed the plate and kept on walking. I guess I'm accustomed to having a manager ask how our meals are when he visits our table, but not this guy. He not only couldn't seem to care less, he seemed to intentional snub us. The wife liked her dinner, but I ordered the beef Stroganoff and the noodles were absolutely drowning in sauce. Someone at the next table ordered the same thing and asked for more noodles to soak up some of the excess sauce. Normally, we have good service and the food is good (their steak is on par with just about any steak house), but this visit wasn't our best experience. read more

I ordered the Beef Stroganoff & it was the oddest I've ever had. Instead of broad noodle, you get spaghetti as the noodle. For the meat it's clumps of ground beef. read more

This has become a Thursday night date night spot! We literally only order chicken fried chicken because it's sooo good! Jalapeño gravy with mashed potatoes & broccoli & share a Caesars salad. Sometimes I'll get a margarita, the last time we got a frozen mango/strawberry which was so fantastic. If not it's sweet tea. Perfect to hit that comfort food craving! The servers are always fantastic. We normally sit in the bar area. The manager (with the short hair) always comes around to check on things. The spirits are high here despite most nights are quiet. (Which idk I why since I always have a great meal) but I love their energy & thats what keeps us coming back. read more

Love their chicken fried chicken and steak. Amazing service and our large order was correct! Thank you !!!

I took a group of 23 people in for lunch on Saturday at 2:00 pm. The food and service was great. But I was disappointed that the manager on duty could not come over to our table and thank us . He could not be bothered to check on us. Next time we will go to a different restaurant where they appreciate the business. read more

My husband picked this place because he went here once when he was visiting Denver as a teen. Although I wasn't very enthusiastic as first, this place impressed me. Their lunch specials were amazing! You get a lot of food for less than $10. I got the pot roast and two sides. The pot roast had a good flavor, and it was appropriately juicy. The sweet potato was fine. The fried corn was ridiculous! Who thinks, "let's deep fry corn on the cob"? Crazy! It's like ingenious fair food. After the shock wore off, I got a little bored with the gimmick. I like good old traditional corn on the cob (or street corn). While the batter was great, it was too much. I couldn't finish it. I strongly recommend this place for lunch because it's affordable, has great portions sizes, and ridiculous side options. It's a pseudo southern restaurant in the mile high city though. Don't expect to find sweet tea here. read more

Black-Eyed Pea - Pot roast lunch special with fried corn and a baked sweet potato $8.99 - American Near Me - Northglenn, Colorado

We were hungry and craving pot roast so we decided to order takeout from here. It was ready within 15-20 minutes. The pot roast was tender and flavorful in a delicious gravy, and all of the sides were a good size. The mashed potatoes were average but I enjoyed the cinnamon apples. The dish also comes with corn bread and dinner bread. Everything lasted me 2 servings. We'll be back! read more

We just enjoyed delicious Thanksgiving turkey dinners to go. Great work Blackeyed Pea!

Went here with my family for lunch. It's mainly homestyle food. Everything tasted pretty good but the space had a geriatric vibe. But, the prices were fair and they give enough food so you can share your entree with someone if both of you are not super hungry. Also they give great complimentary buns and corn bread with sweet butter. So if you want to penny pinch, avoid apps and just eat the free bread. It was fresh and delicious. read more

First I will say that the first time I went to Black Eyed Pea was in Colorado Springs, and it was a hilariously bad experience. This time however was fantastic. I went to the one near my house on 104th. First off I was immediately greeted with a smile by the host and sat thereafter. My server Daniel is new but still great and quick. I tried to put him to work to see how he handled pressure and he did great getting me everything I requested within 2-3 minutes. This place feels like a fancier Cracker Barrel and the food was fantastic. Large portions for very cheap. I got the mushroom swiss chicken with shrimp with a side of mash potatoes and spinach. My husband got chicken fried steak with corn and black-eyed peas. My son got mac and cheese with salad. The portions were huge. I paid 12$ for my chicken and sides. 4$ for each skewer of shrimp. I was surprised by the portion size, even the drinks were huge! I even got like a quarter of an orange in my beer. The chicken was nice and moist, the mashed potatoes (made from scratch every hour) were delicious. The corn had a very nice char to them. The spinach was a little salty but still tasty. The salads were crisp and well dressed. My sons mac and cheese was like half a box of Kraft but he ate every bite. The chicken fried steak was crispy and well cooked. My son also got a free dessert with his meal that he basically ate all of before I could get pictures. Over all I was impressed. Idefinitely will be back. read more

Lunch time 11:45-1:15pm our time there waiting for lunch. Food was Luke warm. Waiter was Not friendly at all-he made us feel like we were bothering him when we asked for things. I made sure I told him the food was not hot at all I didn't send it back because my son had to get to work we were late waiting for so long, 2 soup & salads and a 5 pick of the sides. Shouldn't have taken 40 min for food. We won't be back! Sucks because we like the Blackeyed Pea usually. read more

The best Chicken fried Chicken! Picked up a great lunch here today, they always have the food hot and fresh when I come to pick it up.

We were so EXCITED to find this place while traveling as most are closed down. The tasted as good as I remembered. Rolls excellent! Nice sales people. Not much diversity in that area. Read some of the reviews before going and was a bit skeptical. Our wait person was very accommodating. read more

I was just passing through Denver and this place just so happened to be by a place where I met a friend and the food was amazing. I got a lot of food for a very reasonable price and at the last minute before they closed. Would definitely recommend to a friend! read more

This place was very clean and the service was wonderful! The dinner rolls are the best!

Food was great and service was stellar. Everything was delicious and the menu had interesting offerings and many sides. Recommended!

We ordered Curbside takeout. When I got home, I discovered the staff failed to include a dinner salad that is included with the meal. I also pre-paid and tipped 15% before the entire transaction was complete. That's the problem with tipping before you get your food home. Starbucks allows tipping even after you've been and gone from the place of business, maybe they could adopt this business model, but I've had similar experiences with other restaurants as well. The quality of food was excellent though, what there was of it, sans a dinner salad. I had to make my own salad by the way. read more

I love the rice cassarole here I can't get enough so good. Hamburgers, fried mushrooms, broccoli cheddar soup, Cobb salad with ranch, fresh bread and corn bread with butter, and pork chops ranch style are great to wait time can be a little long depending on when you go but staff is friendly, and they are always clean bathrooms and all you can even order ahead to go pick up and take home best is on birthday you get a free dessert yumm (hopefully you still get free dessert on birthday) read more
