Black-Eyed Sally's Southern Kitchen & Bar

My wife and I really enjoy Black Eyed Sally’s Southern Kitchen and Bar. The prices are very fair and the brisket is absolutely fantastic, tender, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The live music is a huge plus and adds a great energy to the place, making it a fun and welcoming spot to spend an evening. Service has always been friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the overall experience is consistently excellent. We always leave happy and look forward to coming back again. It does get BUSY during the live music events so get there early!!!

We had an incredible experience here. Alicia, our server, took great care of us! They have a gluten-free menu with lots of options. The food was top notch! Good music too!

This place was outstanding! Nice decor, friendly service and outstanding food all for very reasonable pricing. You can taste the love in every bite! Brisket was super tender. Mac and cheese the peak of comfort food… like a hug from the south! Highly recommended if you are in the area. Just a 6 min hop from the convention center and parking available across the street in a paid lot. Can’t wait to try something new next time.

Being from the south, my honey and I have had this place on our list for a while. We finally got to stop in for lunch, hoping to find authentic southern cooking. We started out with the okra and pickles. These are fried and fried pretty well. They are served with a sauce that tastes like a fancy Big Mac sauce, tasty. The downside of this appetizer is the okra. I’m not sure where they got the idea of frying okra whole was the way it’s done, but they missed the mark. The pickles were great. For our meals, I had the southern fried chicken. It was fried well and quite tasty. The collard greens were off, a lot. Granted, I’m more of a turnip greens kind of guy, but these were bad. The Mac and cheese tasted and felt like a boxed cheese. My honey had the jambalaya. It was quite good, several

If you need a recommendation on where to eat in Hartford, CT, I’m sending you to Black Eyed Sally’s. 😋 Everything I’ve ever had there is amazing. The biggest downside is you often have to pay for parking. 📸 Sally’s Pig Out: pulled pork, ribs, sausage, cheddar grits, red beans & rice, cornbread (I had to grab it to go, just picture it all perfectly plated 😍)
