This barbecue is the real thing not over done not overpriced just good basic barbecue we take home a pound about once every two weeks and their barbecue sauce is outstanding great flavor just a little bit of heat just enough to make it taste good highly recommend read more

We stopped here and got the Brisket and pulled pork to go. For sides we got the macaroni and cheese and cole slaw. All I have to say if whatever sauces and spice rubs they put on their meats is Unbelievable! The brisket melts in your mouth and we put the pulled pork in some buns and made some amazing sandwiches that we ate for 2 days. The macaroni and cheese is phenomenal and clearly made the right way not with any fake cheese or sauce. Love this place I recommend to everyone and anyone who wants great bbq in Savannah. read more

Support these guys if I still could. Since moving back to Atlanta area, I have missed a few spots in Savannah and this is one of them. Ribs, pulled pork, brisket is all better than most BBQ restaurants in ATL. read more

Everyone wants to discover a gem in the rough. I mean its adream to find a BBQ joint in Sandfly Georgia at the end of a little ole shopping center that has BBQ as good as here. These guys here just know how to do it. Nothing super fancy, but put on your Blue Suede Shoes, and enjoy some of the best tasting Pulled Pork anywhere, and the Elvis Memorabilia all over the walls! read more

This place was curbside friendly and the food was delicious. We had the pork fries and I had the pork salad. Delicious! Some reviewed it as expensive but I think that sort of depends on where you live. read more

Super yummy bbq! Fast and friendly service. I highly recommend trying this place. We stumbled upon it and were so glad we did!

Drove 25 minutes out of our way to come here on our way to Florida (family road trip.) Heard about it through Yelp and decided to give it a try. Arrived at 7, an hour before closing so unfortunately the mac and cheese and ribs were gone for the night. The whole family enjoyed our meals. The favorites were baked beans, beef brisket, chicken, pork, and collard greens. read more

I tried it again last week. There was quite an improvement. The homemade pickles were back and the BBQ brisket was served on a bun instead of sliced white bread. The food was back to being delicious. The only negative is the sides are still smaller than they use to be. read more

Used these guys to cater a birthday party and it was awesome !! Great food, Brisket was amazing !! Everyone at e way too much !!

Looks like the sign on the door is incorrect! Got there at 3:15 today, July 31 to place and pick up an order even though the sign said "closed Aug2 for vacation!" The guy told me "Yea we closed." read more

So let's start with I'm not a fan of smoked foods...I loved sandfly BBQ smoked flavor though!! My favorite is the smoked sausage, get it on it's own or make an incredible sub! Shhhh don't tell anyone but they have the best French fries in town!! read more

Easily the best BBQ in Savannah, certainly some of the best in the entire state. Every meat is fork tender, fall off the bone and delicious. Every side is stellar as well, namely the Brunswick Stew! The thing Sandfly does best, and certainly integral to good BBQ, is the sauce. They have 3 on every table and each is wonderful but their signature mustard sauce is down right drinkable. Both locations of this restaurant are consistently fantastic read more

Supurb bbq, the owners are from Memphis so it's more angled in that vein. However they still had the pork sandwich native to the Caroline's and they actually had the best vinegar sauce I have ever had by far. The guy at the counter was really good too. read more

This place has Brunswick stew on the menu but it is only vegetable soup. Charging $9 for this slop is ridiculous. Too many places in town that serve the real thing. read more

Hit the spot after a long workday. Not familiar with the area and dropped in on a recommendation. I came hungry, I left FULL. Had the plate of 6 ribs, fries and beans. Very good meat and rub. Bring an appetite. read more

Oh my goodness this is good BBQ! My brother and I got the sampler platter and it was delicious! The beans were also great, not too sweet, smokey and tender. Our waiter was awesome, very friendly and took the time to chat with us since we were there during off-lunch hours. read more

I've eaten BBQ all over the world. I like Georgia BBQ the best, which has a vinegar pepper tomato sauce. Just moved to Savannah and the BBQ i've eaten here has been poor with the exception of Wylies, which is ripoff expensive. This place serves among the best BBQ I have had, and in an interesting way. Their rub is distinctive and you can tell how it flavors the meat. Their sauces - a Georgia sauce and a South Carolina mustard based sauce - has fire and kick to it. I took home a pound and a half of each of pork, brisket, and boneless chicken and the family (3 people total) went through it in 24 hours. That's how good it is. I think their french fries are superb. Someone complained about them being soggy. They seem that way because they are fresh - cut to order - and they are crisp and taste like potatos if you consume them in the restaurant. To preserve a fry longer than that, you have to blanch them - soak them in brine, not a good thing - and I'm glad Sandfly doesn't. French fries aren't healthy, but they're worse than bad for your heart if they are soaked in brine. GO HERE GO HERE GO HERE read more

Would definitely recommend this place. I got the 6-ribs plate with fries and baked beans (and onion rings). The ribs were top class, excellent with or without sauce. Onion rings very good. On the downside, the baked beans and fries were just satisfactory, and I only liked one of the sauces, but maybe that's because I'm not a huge fan of vinegar or mustard-based sauces (liked the Memphis style sauce). Oh and the sand gnats were a pain in the a$$ - had to sit inside. But that worked out well coz this place has great décor - classic rock memorabilia - right up my street! read more

Love this place. Staff, service, food and beer selection are all on point. Wings are killer. If you are visiting don't miss this place. It's a local favorite. I am a proud local regular customer of this joint! read more

Delicious bar-b-que! The brisket was tender and the sauce was great!! My wife and I liked it a lot. Only one problem, lots of flies and insects we're flying around (we are inside) and we had to swat them away from the food. Other than that, highly recommended!! read more

excellent bbq! this place doesn't look like much from the outside.... but the bbq is great... and i've had bbq all over most of the south, like tennessee, south carolina and texas. good staff. fast. go here. it's on the way to boneventure or wormsloe read more

shared the sampler platter loved all of their meats favorite was the sausage and pork. Also has several sides all were great! Taking home the coconut cake looks great . read more

This was the first bbq joint we visited in Savannah. The sweet tea is delicious, the fried okra, brisket, ribs, bbq chicken was yummy. The waitress was very friendly and welcoming. It was a great intro to southern cuisine. None of the other bbq places we visited quite surpassed them. Sandfly Bbq definitely set the bar high. Kudos!!!! read more

A terrific meal in a lovely part of the South. I have been traveling the world on business since the early part of the 1980's, and I have had many memorable and noteworthy meals on 5 continents in all manner of milieu. Given my status as CEO and founder of my Long Island based logistics operation, I am accustomed to eating the finest, freshest, and most expertly prepared meals available, regardless of cost. On a recent talent scouting trip to Savannah, I developed a hankering for some authentic bar-be-que'd style food. A nice local young man directed my driver to Sandfly BBQ. I could not have bee more surprised to see that this modest little establishment was located in a strip mall, next to a pilates operation and across the street from a British Petroleum gas station. Upon entry however, I immediately felt at home. The kitschy license plates on the wall and references to the late great Elvis Presley brought a smile to my face as the lovely proprietor (who's name I unfortunately didn't catch) asked to take my order. "Impress me" I said. She smiled and winked and said "I've got just the thing for the likes of a man of your stature". She handed me a large cup of sweet tea and led me to a comfortable picnic-style bench on the veranda. After a short wait, and a few sips of the delicious sweet tea, she placed in front of me a bowl of some colorful, stewed substance I later found out to be "Brunswick Stew". What a splendid dish this was! Complex flavors with a deeply bold mouthfeel and tremendously smooth finish. A great start! Next, she put on offer a platter of rich, earthy, gloriously hued meats from both porcine and bovine origin. She suggested I try these items with one or all of the variety of lovely sauces available and I did as such. I focused first on the rib section of the animal. The flesh fell from the bone as simply and gently as blowing the seeds off of a dandelion seed head. Effortless consumption with sublime flavor. I nibbled on the slice of "Texas Toast" which was evidently given gratis, as I don't recall ordering anything by this name, and was pleasantly surprised by the gentle buttery crunch and very satisfying mouthfeel. The simplicity of this dish made me smile a second time. I continued with the various accompaniments, and additional meat offerings as they were presented to me and each dish did not fail to impress. After a good 90 minutes of bar-be-que'd culinary bliss, I had finished my meal. I complimented the proprietor, gave her my business card, and relayed to her my experiences eating gourmet meals across the world. She blushed naturally, and I asked if I could give her a small kiss on the cheek as an offering of my gratitude for the lovely meal I was just presented with. She obliged and I smiled a third time. I got back into my Mercedes and instructed my driver to take me back to my hotel... and to do one more thing. To mark this little gem of a restaurant, "Sandfly BBQ" in my rolodex! I would rank this right up there with Johri's Talvo in St. Moritz and Jaan at the Swissotel in Singapore. I would recommend it to anyone. Thank you. read more

When we drove up and I saw the diner I almost changed my mind. It appeared run down. The interior is very small. If I left it would have been a Big Mistake! My husband ordered the Beef Brisket and I tasted it and wished I could eat all of his meal! It was so good! I had the Dry Rubbed Ribs. Scrumptious! I would highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Food is usually great, however I bought a bowl of gumbo takeout one day recently. It was so salty it tasted terrible- no one would have eaten it. Next week when I was picking up another takeout and informed employee of incident. She talked to chef but no one was sorry...they acted they didn't believe me. Now I doubt I will eveR go back. read more

Don't bother going there! They are NEVER open when they say they are going to be open. They also run out of food constantly (obviously, due to very poor planning). It is not worth the trip or hassle. read more

This place has some of the best Brunswick Stew you'll ever taste. My favorite part was the convenient sealed soup buckets we got when we ordered two extra quarts to go. Great prices, and the best road trip food ever! read more

Excellent bbq! Had the pulled pork sandwich which was highlighted with the butter grilled bun. Hand cut fries in the side. Perfection! Great little spot. read more

Brunswick stew was amazing, as was the brisket. We were bummed they was out of pork, but the brisket was so tender ....and they don't skimp. Our sandwiches were overflowing! Will definitely return, especially to try out the pork. read more

Delicious delicious bbq. When I go bbq I go for the brisket. It was perfect here. We were driving from Florida to North Carolina, and drove out of our way twice to stop in here for lunch. Damn! So good. The brisket is tender and juicy and the bbq sauces just go so well with it. The sides I had were great as well. Mac n cheese of course and fries. My friend had a sandwich and said the bread was even amazing on it. We'll be back when we travel anywhere close. read more

My girlfriend found this place through fellow Yelpers and scheduled this on our extended Labor Day weekend. Due to the positive reviews of their Brunswick Stew, we knew we had to take the trip from Downtown Historic Savannah to grab some dinner here. Needless to say, the reviews on yelp were spot on and their Brunswick Stew did not disappoint. Prior to this visit, she's been craving Brunswick Stew since leaving North Carolina a few years ago - and she's been looking for her fix. I'm impartial to Brunswick stew - and Sandfly's version was definitely full of flavor (she concurs). I had the Hog Wild Platter and my girlfriend had the beef and pork combo platter. Each bite of my platter mixed with their 3 homemade BBQ sauces (I'm a dipper) was like a party in my mouth and everybody was invited. Since our hotel didn't have a fridge, we decided not to take extra stew to go this day and to come back before we left town. We are now kicking ourselves because we forgot the possibility that Sandfly BBQ was going to be closed on Labor Day. Damn! This place will definitely be on our itinerary the next time we visit Savannah!! read more

This place is the best place I have ever been to. They have delicious stuff. The menu is big. The food is delicious the service is delightful and they are in a good location. Love this place!!! read more

Our favorite bbq spot in town!! The pulled chicken and pork are amazing and my husband loves the ribs. The potato salad is to die for and we love the baked beans and green beans. The sauce has a spicy kick to it, so it might be to hot for some but they serve it in the side which is nice. Made a mistake of trying someone else this weekend who was raved about in magazines, big disappointment, so we will be sticking with our go to, Sandfly BBQ! read more

Oh my goodness!!! My husband and I met here for lunch. It was our first time so we split the platter so we could try it all. It was delicious!!! The best BBQ around!!! read more

I'm from California visiting my kids. Being in the south I was really craving some brisket. While they were in school I decided to check out a local BBQ joint. Sandfly was one of the places that came up first and the positive reviews sold me. I ordered the beef brisket and pulled pork plate with coleslaw and potato salad. The GF got the ribs. Oh man ill tell you what, the reviews are all spot on. I cut into the brisket and it immediately fell apart. It basically disintegrated in my mouth it was so tender, no sauce required. The fat and rub they use is flavorful enough. The pulled pork was also very tender, moist and flavorful. I used two (the third being bbq sauce) of the sauces that are at each table one being a more watery vinegar based sauce and the other being a thicker sauce both of which are very good. The slaw and potato salad were both on point with the potato salad being my favorite of the two. It also came with a slice of Texas toast. All this for about $12. I was definitely full after and very satisfied. BTW I did take a bite of my woman's ribs and those too were very good. Their seasoning is excellent and the rib meat was moist and practically fell off of the bone. She very much enjoyed them. We plan on heading back this week to try the Brunswick stew which I believe had chicken, pork and beef in it. I also want some more of that delicious brisket. Don't see it much in Cali so I want to get my fill while I'm here. Update: Came back a few days later. Ordered the Brunswick stew and the pulled chicken salad with BBQ ranch dressing. Again, another solid effort by Sandfly. The chicken on the salad was perfect, not dry in the slightest and fell apart when I went to stab it with my fork. Overall, the salad was delicious and the dressing fantastic. Next, the stew was filled with a copious amount of very tender meat in a slightly spicy soup. There were also tomatoes, Lima beans and corn in the stew which was rather minimal but very hearty and filling. The meat alone makes this stew what it is and there is a lot of it. Would recommend trying at least once if anything. Definitely eat here if you love BBQ like I do. read more

This is a little hole-in-the-wall spot. When we went 2 weeks ago it there were some really annoying parents and children, but I guess that can't be avoided. The BBQ here is great. Get the sausage plate, it is so so so so good. My gentleman friend had the brisket, also top-notch. The mustard sauce is really good, so is the spicy sauce. BBQ is not my fav although I am growing to appreciate it more and more, this is by far my favorite BBQ place I have been to ever. read more
