The best bbq we have had in a long time. The half chicken was perfectly cooked and very flavorful The sweet potatoe fries were a great complement The chopped brisket sandwich was delicious according to my husband A local spot for great food If we are ever in Ga again we will come back! And the service was spot on for the spot! read more

Very disappointed with our experience at Sandfly BBQ. Unfortunately, the restaurant really lived up to its name--there were flies everywhere. The dining area appeared dirty and had an unpleasant odor that made us question the overall cleanliness of the establishment. When we walked in, no one greeted us or explained how ordering worked. I asked if we should just sit down and order, and the cashier, a heavy-set woman with dark hair and glasses, simply said, "Sit anywhere." A moment later, my daughter asked the same question and was told, "You order here, then sit." It would have been nice if that had been explained to me the first time. Because of the poor service and first impression, I chose not to order anything. My daughter did order, and unfortunately the food was just as disappointing. It was dry, flavorless, and not worth the price. Between the lack of customer service, poor food quality, and concerning cleanliness issues, this was not a good experience. We won't be returning. read more

The food is the star! I visited Sandfly for the first time in Feb 2026. I was accompanied by a mate who travels the country and eats Bbq nationwide. He was impressed. I was in heaven! I had the Hog Wild Platter. The sliced brisket was melt in your mouth good. They were out of ribs, so an extra portion of the delicious brisket filled in. The pulled pork was well prepared although a bit dry. The chicken... ohhh the chicken was tender, juicy and delicious. For sides, the collard greens reminded me of my childhood in Florida. Better than mom's? Yes sorry mom! I love that it's unpretentious. It's not a tourist trap. It was filled with real local folk. The vibe is neighborhood friendly food. The service was friendly and helpful. Summary: Amazing Q, chill vibe, reasonable prices. I will return again and again! read more

Some of the best BBQ I've eaten has come at the recommendation of friends (locals), long before being discovered by authentic food critics. Sandfly BBQ falls in that category. I shared a "Hog Wild" Platter with a friend while his wife tried the vegetable plate. They were sold out of ribs, so we rounded out of order of brisket (sliced), sausage, and chicken (white meat) with a second order of brisket. All of the meats were flavorful enough to eat without sauce. The sliced brisket was on-point. The sausage was grilled (vs. slow smoked) and had great texture and flavor. They gave me chopped brisket instead of a second order of sliced brisket and unfortunately it did not compare favorably to the slided brisket. The sides were solid. Crispy french fries pair well with BBQ as does savory, well-seasoned collard greens. The vegetable plate (fried okra, mac and cheese, cole slaw, and sweet potato fries) also received high marks. There is no review of the chicken, as we ran out of stomach capacity before touching it. We boxed it up for my friend to take with him. Hopefully he will write a review. read more

Was here for the first time on Monday10/13/25 6pm & This place was recommended by a local and Sandfly bbq did NOT disappoint! I really enjoyed my brisket sandwich with the a slight crunch from my buttered slightly toasted buns with the bbq sauce. It was good. Mac & cheese was just cheesy enough. Service was awesome and informative. Not too many tables inside but was cozy. I highly recommend this place and would come back if ever in town again read more

I have never been to sandfly bbq when it isn't Poppin' but I took a late lunch break today and was delighted to have the plate to myself at 2pm on a Thursday afternoon. I had the double brisket and a whole mess of fries . My meal came out fast- fresh and most of all delicious! This is my favorite bbq place on this part of town and it was nice to experience it when it was but calmer than the normal Saturday afternoon rush. read more

Love this BBQ spot, and so does everyone in my family! My absolute favorite item to purchase here is their smoked, pulled chicken! Tonight I bought a pound to use in homemade broth to made chicken noodle soup- a quick delicious hack! Honestly, all their smoked meats are great and I enjoy their sides, too, especially the fried okra. Not in the mood for BBQ? Their burgers are some of the best in Savannah and the fries are cut in house! So good! You'll order at the counter and find a table. Beverages are self serve and there's limited inside dining and outside sidewalk dining, too. A local favorite! read more

Had lunch here on a Saturday afternoon. We got there around noon before the crowd about ten minutes later. Small dining room inside and tables outside. Order at a counter and they bring your food quickly. I got the three sliders,(sausage, pork, and brisket) with collards. My wife got the six wings with fried okra. I really enjoyed my sliders with their sweet sauce. The collards were very good with pepper sauce on the table. My wife got the wings dry rubbed with a dipping sauce she enjoyed. Fried okra was good. Good barbecue experience. read more

Stopped in on a recommendation from our daughter. So glad we did. We ordered the Hog Sampler which gave you a portion of all their meats, two sides, and two slices of Texas toast. All the meat was nice and tender and had a great smoked flavor. The brisket, pulled pork, chicken and ribs was very tasty. The baked beans have a nice flavor, however, was too much meat and very little beans. The macaroni and cheese were not that good, noodles way over cooked. Potato salad wasn't bad. The building is small however, does provide outside seating . Service was provided with a welcoming friendly smile. Even though a few of the sides were not to my liking the meat definitely was. We will be back. read more

Sandfly is our favorite BBQ establishment in Savannah. We always order the pulled pork and it's consistently moist, flavorful and delicious ! The sides are excellent too--The coleslaw and Mac and cheese are our favorites. Definitely check this place out ! read more

From both food quality to the staff, Sandfly is a broken shell of what it once was. Idk where to begin with this nightmare. Not only was my food delivered in an unsealed, opened bag, but it also came extremely cold. I barely received what I ordered There was definitely noooooot a 1/2 LB of pork in my container at all with the $16.99 pork plate with 2 sides. The sides were lumpy, hard, and cold at that. The potato salad had no flavor; it tasted like plain vinegar. Texas toast was burnt. It was inedible I immediately contacted the restaurant, believing they'll act in decency. Nothing of the sort happened. I spoke to two employees, one of whom was the upfront manager named Jeanie. She was one of the nastiest, rudest people I've ever met, nor did she care to help resolve this extremely upsetting matter one bit In fact, Jeanie and the other employee both had a no-care attitude towards a severely heartbroken grieving widow crying on the phone and explaining my current painful situation and wanting to have a meal from a place I made memories at with my husband I communicated clearly to Jeanie the details of my unsatisfactory experience. She chose to berate me, talk down to me like a child, literally say she didn't care about what I was saying, and yell at me. Her voice was so loud that other people overheard her and came to see if I was ok Jeanie eventually claimed that she was going to do a one-time refund, which she made abundantly clear that she would NEVER do again. She then gave me the runaround and told me she was unable to refund because it was a takeout order... that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever There's a way you talk to people. You don't talk to people any way you want. Especially as a manager. If you can't treat people, paying customers no less, with dignity, then you have no business serving as a manager in any capacity Their disgusting behavior matches their constantly falling health score. I would never trust Sandfly again and will make sure everyone knows about their poor service and their treatment of customers Sandfly is an embarrassment in the community. Right is right, wrong is wrong. Sandfly is downright wrong read more

Very friendly staff and great sides. Ordered the sweet potatoes fries which were seasoned perfectly and the chopped brisket plate. Biggest beef with the order (pun intended) was the brisket. Brisket was cold(ish) to the point that the fat was beginning to gelatinize. The sauces were good and the environment was quaint. Price was as expected. Would give it another try, maybe I just got a bad batch at the end of the day??? Would like to try some of the other dishes. Members of our party were very pleased with their orders. read more

A large group of us went during the lunch rush. I was so impressed by the service. We were able to find tables outside to push together that fit our party. I got a pulled pork plate with Mac & cheese and greens. Everything was good. My friend ordered fried banana peppers and those were AMAZING! Their tea is also decent. I would totally eat her again. read more

We were visiting Savannah and whilst at a hiking trail a young married couple got to chatting me up. He said he was a bbq snob and this place was a 10/10! So we tried it for lunch and we were NOT disappointed. I had the pulled pork plate with fries. My spouse had beef brisket. Both were tender and smoked to perfection. There were three sauces to choose from: a mustard base, sweet traditional, and a spicy sauce. All were great. The fries were hand cut and were fried crispy. We even had to take out an order of ribs to go. Soooooo good! read more

This place is always a crowd pleaser. It's a carnivore's dream. Huge servings of BBQ pork, brisket or turkey with a few sides. Don't forget dessert but you also need to buy some RUB for your next home meal. The place is on the small side but they have outside tables if the weather is agreeable. Prices are reasonable. read more

This is our favorite kind of place... where the locals eat. The fries are thin and handcut very delicious! The baked beans are sweet with chunks of meat no onions! Just the way we like them. Staff is friendly & portions are large. read more

Food was really nice! Best southern green beans I have had in a long time. Brunswick stew was great, a little sweet with nice amount of limas, corn and tomatos. Burnt ends were the special for today so decided to try them. They were cut into little cubes and were delicious with the sauce on them. We also had 1/4 chicken, white meat which was nicely spiced. read more

Boy oh boy! If you want good barbecue this joint is it! The pork was so good I ate half without sauce. The Mac and cheese was homemade with that nice slightly brown top. Glad we went a little out of downtown to be at Sandfly. Well worth the ride. If we're coming through Savannah this will be a regular stop. read more

Sandfly was the first bbq spot we tired when visiting the city of Savannah. Now that we live locally it part of our frequently visited spots. I have never had a bad meal. Collards are always on point. Any meat you get is going to be good. The staff is always friendly and ready to help. They even brought a dog bowl out when we had the puppy come last time.

Delicious delicious delicious. It really doesn't get much better then this. We have been trying a bbq restaurant in the Savannah area every week for the last month or so. This one, was by far my favorite. (We have now been to about 6 different BBQ places in the area). The staff was incredibly friendly and walked us through the menu and their personal favorites. They have a board right up front that notates what they are out of, so there is no guessing game when it comes time to order. They have 3 speciality BBQ sauces, which were all fantastic. I couldn't pick a favorite. The pulled pork was cooked exceptionally and the smoked chicken melted in my mouth. The coleslaw was fresh and the mac and cheese was gooey and cheesy, without overdoing it. My highlight was the brunswick stew, it seems to have a lighter base than most, and it was my most favorite brunswick stew i've had to date. It was perfectly seasoned and full of veggies pork and beans. Absolutely delicious. Can not recommend Sandfly BBQ enough!! read more

I really wanted to give it 5 stars, but they messed up my husbands order today and didn't give him sausage but pulled pork Instead. He took his plate up and showed them the mistake. He's a super easy going guy. They took the plate and I was left to eat while he sat and waited. Finally some old lady came out and slapped the plate down. No apology or even "enjoy". So my problem is...they should have let him keep his plate and just gave him the sausage. That way he could be at least eating. That's the proper southern customer service thing to do. After all it was their mistake not his. The gal who took our order was very polite and friendly. Older white lady, not so much. The meat was decent. The okra was on point! Sweet tea was perfectly sweet to my palette. I'd eat here again, but hopefully they'll read this and consider customer service in the future. read more

This is in a little strip mall with parking right out front. You order at the counter and they bring your food to the table when it is ready. My husband and I ordered the bbq plate for two and added an order of sweet potato fries and Cole slaw. My husband loved it all. As for me, I would have been happy with the ribs, sweet potatoes and maybe some Cole slaw for veggies. Ribs - fall off the bone tender Sweet potato fries were crispy and yummy. Sausage-nicely cooked but too salty ribs- fall off the bone tender. YUMMM!! shredded pork - plain for me but good with bbq sauce poured on top. My husband really liked it. Brisket- plain for me but my husband really liked it. Cole slaw- good Bread- didn't eat as we had so much food including left overs. read more

Horrible bland, cold food and even worse customer service!!! Save your money and time. The food is bland and definitely not worth trying. I drove from Texas to Georgia, and after reading reviews I thought it'd be a nice place to try. Boy was I wrong!! Honest review. Too bad I had to give this place a star because I didn't have a zero option. Oh!! Btw, the place is filthy!!! read more

Delicious local cuisine. Very casual atmosphere. Worth heading out of Savannah to eat their yummy, yummy food.

When you're an out of towner who LOVES bbq, and you find places like this, it's so bittersweet bc I'll never get to eat here again. The bbq sampler plate was the best we've ever had and the Carolina sauce is amazing. Hit it on the way to Wormsloe plantation! (This Kansan prefers this place to anything in KC BBQ, sorry not sorry) Nice ladies at the counter too. read more

Good food, lower smoke flavor but smooth in taste. Bottles of sauce on the table. They have an easy menu board and do list what items they run out of for the evening.

Exceptional BBQ ,,,, & yes I am an authority on this matter ! The pork and the chicken were both smoky , tender and moist . The collards were also cooked to perfection and nicely seasoned! But the BRUNSWICK STEW about stole the show . Some of the best I've ever had . I would always get some "to-go" on ALL future visits ! Even the brewed Ice tea and pickles were above average. They already have a huge fan following, so if you visit , come early . Locals say ; They do "sell out " of their bbq meats .... almost every day !! read more
