Black-eyed Pea

The bread and honey mustard were good. The waitress didn't know a single beer they served. The bread came with butter but no utensils. The extra dollar for onion rings worked out to 20 cents per ring and they were not very good. The burger was just ok. I was entertained by the waitress struggling to pick up my paper check from the ultra sticky table though. I told my wife to get a good look around because we will not be here again.

I have not been to a Black Eyed Pea since I left Houston some 15 years ago, I had no idea that this Black Eyed Pea in Arlington, Texas was the only one left in Texas, I took my family here for the first time today, and we all loved it, And will definitely now be regulars! Come during the day and ask for Archie, he was a great server, and part of the reason that made the experience so delightful, thank you, Archie, keep up the great work!!

I ordered on DoorDash last night and the food order that came was very messed up... out of the 4 sides ordered... two were replaced with blackeyed peas (no one ordered blackeyed peas), one was left out completely, and the one I did get that was correct, was such a small portion that it was gone in five bites. Also, the rolls were cold and hard and there was no butter. So disappointing!

My aunt chose this place for her birthday, and overall, the food was ok. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the rolls and cornbread were, definitely a highlight! We ordered a little bit of everything, and most of it was ok. The real standout, though, was the peach cobbler, it was sooo good! We almost ordered a second one.

After a rough morning trying (and failing) to get into the fair, my family and I decided to grab lunch at the BEP- best decision ever! The food was so good, the place was spotless, and the atmosphere was super inviting.

But what really made our day was our server, Archie. He was absolutely amazing. So friendly, funny, and genuinely kind. He made us feel like part of his own family and totally turned our day around. We all agreed he deserves a raise if he hasn’t gotten one already!

10/10 experience. Came in gloomy, and left smiling. Definitely recommend and we’ll definitely be back!

Very nice people and great food!

This is not a bad review, just a little disappointed.

I absolutely love the service, especially Donna.
My favorite is the Nawlins Catfish but I must say something is different. I don’t know if it is a different cook or what but for the last few months of me ordering the sauce is extremely salty. There were a few times when the manager, which is extremely kind, paid for the meals.

I waited about a month before ordering again, came back, and it is still salty. This saddens me because this is my favorite meal and I was ordering it at least once a week, 2 orders; now I have to discontinue ordering this meal and find something else that is just as good.

I will have to ask Donna what would she recommend. ☺️

Black-eye pea is one of those restaurants that come close to home a little. It have everything on the menu that you basic cook at home for dinner. I love this place ❤️
