Verrrrry nice! No cover charge.....band was very good ( played for tips) wings were very good, reasonably priced. Our server (MJ) was very good. Parking was right across the street. We WILL be back!

I had a horrible experience. The bartender Jimmy asked us to step outside several times due to closing. The bar closes at 2 am, but was kicked out around 12:30. Keep in mind there were 3 other people still next to the bar. Horrible customer service skills. I do not recommend going to this place.

Great location to chill, eat some good food. This place has a cool feel to it.

Man the live band was awesome the vibe was the same drinks very strong but we mastered lol but a great place

Nothing to complain about. Next time Ill be back with my friends. Prices that wont break you. Makes me feel like I am back in Sacramento.

This is a super cool place for some quality, local music. It felt very comfortable and authentic, and the bar has character. The staff was friendly as well. We went on a quiet night so seating wasnt a problem. There is a cover each night which was completely fair for the entertainment value. Will definitely go back.

The band was awesome and Spike the bartender was on point! The venue is small but a great atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

Horrible food but decent drinks and good live performance. I had the jambalaya that was noting more than whole peeled tomatoes with rice. It was the absolute worst and i was tipsey at the time of consuming it. Dont waste money on the seasonless food.

I like it here, excellent food & service. Prices are reasonable.

Really nothing but good experiences here. Feels like a place in Los Angeles I liked.

Amazing place!!! Good finger food, had the potato chips with bleu cheese. Great blues. The band The Shadows are superb and Miss Sandra Hall was phenomenal. I was the lucky recipient to go onstage with her as she did her set, which was completely out of my comfort zone but it was such a great time. My girlfriend had a great time watching it as well!!! I will definitely go back and I highly recommend it!!!

Great music, nice staff and good Cajun food!

I dont know where Ive been all these years, this is something i have been looking for. I love it i had a blast the band is fantastic love the blues. The staff is terrific i will be going back soon love it. And remember blues come from the heart, mind and soul.

Great service, awesome live music.

Loved it! Great service! Great food! Great music! Ill be back!

I took my second & best hubby & a couple friends here & we danced, laughed, drank, danced some more! Had one of the best times in my life!! Thats saying something considering I grew up in & around New Orleans! If we didnt live so far away, Id drag him there every weekend!

What an amazing evening. Easy, laid back ambiance with killer performance from the band! What a great eve. Food is available to munch with drinks and great vibe.

Absolutely best place for Blues in ATL. House band better than some named performers. Glad they went non smoking.It aint easy being sleazy moniker just right.

We always love Blind Willies!! A great place to listen to the Blues!!!

Had a fantastic time watching a blues band for Mardi Gras. Typical bar food and drinks were good as well.

Great music when we can.

Fantastic place! Amazing Red Beans and Rice and live blues. Whats not to love?

If you’re coming for food, I’ve eaten better.If you’re here for the soul than look no further.Great music and great vibe

If you love the blues music, thats the place to go! Beautiful show last night, good food and great quality drinks.

My visit here started off a little rocky but by the end, turned out a great evening! Jimmy (Spike) had excellent hospitality even coming out from behind the bar to ensure everything was good! I appreciated that & his service. The Cajun wings were crispy & just right! Chelsea was the server & by the end of evening I was thoroughly satisfied. This place is down home, very warm & friendly Big Bill sang his heart out! The band was very entertaining! I’ll definitely go back!

All the best local bands. Good food. No smoke. I thoroughly enjoy every time I come here. By far, my favorite place in Atlanta for blues music.

I havent been in a while, but always the Best Blues in the Southeastern United States...

A true blues club; the blues spirits are here. It has just the right vibe. And as a food reviewer, I must say the Jambalaya is fantastic.

I really wanted to listen to some blues music on my short trip to Atlanta and thats how ended up at the Blind Willies. I didnt try the food the vibe was really nice, the band (Sandra Hall) was great. They have fairly good selection of beer and drinks. The people seemed to enjoy a lot. The service was really good. They apparently have a very good blues roster too. Id definately go back again & would recommend.

Always live music!!! If you love the notes, youre missing out and thats cheating yourself! Always a place to sit!!! Always a cheap cover!!! Plenty to choose from on draft!!! Great staff, friendly and attentive!!! Located on North Highlands with all the other bars... The BBQ pork sandwich had an awesome Memphis, Tennessee flavor! Gang, Gang!

Good dance floor. Quite loud. Bring earplugs if you go often. Great bands, Spike at the bar is awesome.

Sandra Hall & The Shadows are fabulous; she keeps us coming back!

Went to listen to live music and have some drinks. Love the Abita beer selection.

Best Blues venue in town! The Shadows are incredible.

It gave me a Goodfellas vibe since it reminded me of the Bamboo Lounge. Loved the set up they have going on along with the dimmed lights behind the bar. The atmosphere was great along with the music being played. Would def come back soon to enjoy myself

Great place! I have heard the name for years and it lived up to the hype. I highly recommend going.

The music was great last saturday and the atmosphere was very old school and comfortable. Unfortunately, the cover was 15 which was a bit too steep for me and my friends. Service was also good, our waiter Kelsey was adorable and patient with some of my more difficult friends, and always paid us adequate attention despite the place being packed. Overall, good food (except for the red beans and rice) would not recommend, to spicy, but good environment and best blue place. Will definitely be coming back soon !

Great entertainment the lady we went to see to sing the blues not so good with the drinks and food

I love Willies, they get some great bands in here, and its been spreading the gospel of the blues to Atlanta for 30 some-odd years

The best blues Ive seen in the South, and great New Orleans food. Anita Amber is my favorite Louisiana beer and they have it on draft.

Blind Willies is a great blues. It is a staple of the Blues scene in Atlanta.

Blind Willies rules! Always have had a good time here.

Band was so good the night we visited. Will definitely return when I visit Atlanta again.

Like entertainment and bar but not the food

As a musician & as a listener, Ive enjoyed BWs vibe for quite some time; very intimate. Food/cocktails/blues. Come chill sometime.

Great music, good food and a friendly crowd, whats not to like!

Great music at a reasonable price.

This place is rad if you love the blues! Saw the legendary Shadows with Sandra Hall. What a treat!

Good music and drinks Ill have to go back when its not so packed

We’ve always LOVED this place. The music is amazing.

Great blues bar with good finger food

Great live music and entertainment!!

If you like blues you will love this place. $15 at the door but its worth it.

So loud you cant hear your waitress.Just the way I like it.

Looking for blues, this is the place to be.

Good bar selection and music was top notch.

Good music Good drinks Good food

Just needs to close down or get a bigger establishment. Black people who thinks theyre business righteous needs to take classes on business owning. Music is good is what that one star is about.

Great house band and great visiting acts. Good live blues and jazz.

Great music....a revolving bunch of talented musicians and lets not forget the Blues Dancers.

Best place in atlanta for live blues!

Had a great time

The wait staff is great. The music the night I went was more like rock and roll than blues, and it was way, way too loud.

Great place however if you get there too late a seat can be hard to come by.

The music was great, the seating was very limited. They had tables and chairs directly in front of the bathroom doors so every time someone had to go to the bathroom we had to get up and move so they could get into the bathroom. That was gross, smelling the toilet every time someone used the bathroom. The red beans and rice was good however the chicken wings were over cooked and dry. The service was slow but the waitress was nice but seemed to be overworked and a little stressed out.

The food was delicious the music was toe tappingAnd the crowd was invigorating.

Great music! Great service!

Cool vibe, and great venue for live music. Get there early or you’ll be standing.

Awesome live music great And good food

Cajun dry-rub WINGS

We got here abiua 8:15. Waited for about 8 minutes before anyone greeted us. We paid $12 to get in. We ordered wine. The waitress never asked us if we wanted to order food nor did she tell us that the kitchen would be closing at 8:30. We decided why we wanted to eat around 8:45 only to be informed that the kitchen closed ay 8:30. Like really... We asked to sleak to the manager, come to find out the cook was the manager. He refused to even cook us an order of fries. I will never step foot back in this place again. Maybe if we were white we would have gotten better service.

The sound system is just a tad too loud to understand the vocalist but you will have the time of you life at Blind Willies.

Omg the music if your a blues fan is on point. Its wedWednes and the band is awesome . The food is good as well. Thank you

Excellent place to let your hair down

Great venue to hear blues. Food served is decent. If a big name you must get there early. Mostly valet parking.

Pretty crowded. Paid 12 dollar cover to hear the jazz band. Nice atmosphere. Will return

Live blues all the time. Great place.

Sandra the Empress of the Blues brought the house down as always!

Some of the best live music Atlanta has to offer.

Its has a very good vibe

This fantastic bar has a great vibe to it, authentic, cozy, and comfortable. There is wonderful live music (blues), and the bartender is great. Bathroom is small and off the main area, and the place is a little worn, but that just adds to the heat atmosphere.

Best place for live blues in metro atlanta.

A safe and fun place

Always great music and Red Beans & Rice!

Great place for Music and socializing. Good food

Lots of fun. Great blues!

Came alone without reservation and was somehow let it without problems. However, bigger groups of people trying to get in (mainly tourists) were told the wait is 2.5 hours which clearly wasn’t the case as the bar was half full during my time there

Great local and regional blues acts. Good drink prices and food. Plenty of seating for all but the most popular acts.

Love love this venue the best of all the live blues venues!

Food is standard bar food, nothing to get overly excited about. Stingy on the drink pour. The music is always great though. They allow smoking inside this tiny club so just know you will leave smelling like a whole ash tray. Very mixed crowd, all races and ages which I enjoyed. I would go more often but the smoking makes it hard for me to tolerate more than an hour of exposure. Go for GREAT Blues Music and a nice mix of people.

Great blues and chips!

Live music every night and the drinks are quite strong

This was my first time in this place and i have to say I really enjoyed it, The food was good and I enjoyed the music. Mrs. Beneverly sanded and played her butt off, by the way she is 80 and amazing. My only tiny issue is that they need more waitresses, I would definitely recommend and will be returning.

Live music every night, love this place!!

I rarely write reviews but this place totally deserves it. For lovers of blues, this is a must visit! The Cazanovas band played some absolutely soul stirring music. Don’t miss Blind Willie’s when in Atlanta, if blues is your thing.

Best blues music in the ATL!

Service and food is good..The space is kind of small..but its still nice and the live music is great.

Great music!

Excellent music. I have usually gone on late Saturday nights. The venue has been extremely crowded when I go, but it is worth it with the talent they book there. They have decent craft beer selection along with the usual well drinks and domestic brews.

Great blues bar, always have great shows and standing room only crowds. Come early to get a seat. One of the best venues for live blues in Atlanta!
