Eating Music City E.

The smell hits you when you pull into the parking lot, there's BBQ here for sure. While the smell permeates the air, my mouth began to salivate before heading inside. From the look of the building and restaurant I expected to find a host inside and was thrown off when I realized it was a counter service quick dining restaurant instead. It was unexpected, but nothing to be upset at. The interior reminded me of the interior of a Logan's Roadhouse with tables, chair, walls, and column all made of polished wood with grain visible throughout. Very southern, very country, very fitting. Behind the counter is a digitalized menu, with so much on it I was overwhelmed at first glance. I told the employee it was my first time and just got what she recommended so I didn't have to look at that digital mess of screen again! Upon recommendation we got the 2 Meat Sampler plate with Pulled BBQ Chicken and BBQ Pork, with Mac and Cheese and Potato Salad as our sides. Also included was a piece of fried cornbread (imagine a cornbread pancake). Not a bad meal for two for $14.95 The food was out and to us quickly, and served in a white styrofoam box (a COVID-19 precaution). You can see the usual sleek metal trays the food is served on in pictures from other reviewers. Time to eat! First thing I scarfed down was the BBQ Pork. The pork was served plain without any sauce smothering it, but was accompanied with several types of BBQ sauce that was available: Carolina, Sweet, and Mild (others were available behind the counter as well) The pork was tender, and juicy, and the portion size (of all the food) was good. However, I want my pork to fall apart in my mouth and just melt like butter. This pork lacked that distinctness I look for in pork, and could have used some flavoring to accompany it other than sauce. The chicken was not my favorite. It was a pulled chicken, but texturally and visually the chicken didn't look or feel as pulled as one may expect. It was clumpier than the pork when I expected a similar look. Unlike the pork this did come pre-smothered in some type of sauce. Unfortunately, the sauce was overly sweet and way too powerful to make me want more than a forkful or two of the chicken. I am a Mac and Cheese snob, and it really showed while eating this Mac and Cheese. The only way I can think to describe it is as watered down Kraft. The cheese had very little flavor and the only little bit of flavor I could find just tasted like watery cheese sauce. The pasta was well cooked but with that unpleasant cheese water taste just made the entire thing feel squishy and wet in the mouth. If I hadn't been so hungry I wouldn't have eaten much of it. The cornbread was unique and loved how it is served in a pancake like form. But just imagine eating the driest pancake you've ever had. Cornbread is a hard thing to get right, and I understand that. But it should be crumbly without being dry and with each bite of this cornbread pancake I felt like I had eaten sand in a desert and not any amount of water would ever be able to quench my thirst. For somewhere I thought was going to be a more middle of the road sit down restaurant, I can summarize that the Bar-B-Cutie chain is simply a fast food BBQ joint, and tastes about as good as you could expect for such a place. But when you add on the price surge of BBQ on top of what you'd normally pay for fast food, the food just doesn't meet the standard.

Chicken breast baked beans mac, Johnny cake
Tammera T.

I saw this little spot on the way to my hotel and I decided to stop by. I was in the mood for chicken and I was hoping that they had a half chicken which they didnt. They had a drive thru which I was happy about. When I got my platter I was not happy wowwed at all. There was nothing to write home about. The mac and cheese was meh, my chicken was overcooked and dry. The baked beans were decent. The best part was the Johnny cake corn bread. Overall this was okay, but missed the mark in several areas. Would I return...not at all.

Pit master certified brisket plate.  For toddlers?

Just skip it. The portions given don't come close to matching their prices. There's better barbecue in all 4 directions away from Bar-B-Cutie. If I'm paying $35 for it meal, it better not look child's sized. No one pays for tiny plates for pit master meals. The flavor.... Just ok. The value and quantity is too low for ok food. Brisket: Dry, flavorless... Needs more smoke and seasoning. There is so little... See pic. I do like their chili and corn bread. But again.... Why pay for ok? It's fine. Not good, great, no delicious.... Just meh...

Thai Indian bbq fusion…read more Super unique combo and cool vibe / staff I liked the pork sausage curry best- had a curry queso which was rly creamy and unique. Magic mushroom lacked mushroom flavor but curry flavor was very good. Creamed corn was so unique and flavorful. Cold noodles had an amazing homemade chili sauce. Overall super comforting and a very wintery/ comfort food/ under the weather type of meal

I stopped by on a Wednesday afternoon recently, and it was packed. We ordered at the bar and had our food in less than five minutes! Everything I've tried here has been incredible. They smoke all the meats in-house (YUM), and everything on the menu is unique and packed with flavor. You can't go wrong with the Pulled Pork Nachos, Brisket Smoke Show, or the Tony Porker. The rich curry paired with the tender smoked brisket is mind-blowing. The sides are just as good, and don't skip the Ube Cheesecake! There's a small parking lot beside the building and another free lot a short walk down the street. Parking can be a little tricky during busy times, but it's worth it. Seating inside is limited but comfortable. I love the cozy, homey feel, friendly staff, and unique menu!

My first visit to Edley's was fantastic! There are a few parking spots in the front for pickup…read moreorders, but plenty of parking behind the building. This location has a laid back, casual vibe with counter service and a full bar. I visited on a busy weekday evening, but the line to order moved quickly. After grabbing our drinks, it was only a few minutes before our food arrived. I ordered the smoked turkey plate with green beans, mac n cheese and cornbread. The turkey was smoked to perfection and was a huge portion. The mac n cheese had a great breadcrumb topping. I don't usually like coleslaw, but the small side that arrived with my meal was delicious!! Our group also tried the BBQ fries, which were incredible. After just one visit, I made sure to download the app -- I'll definitely be back!

Great Spot For Barbecue…read more I stopped into Edleys on Lebanon Pike to try out some of their barbecue dishes. This location is close to BNA and hotels near the airport. Edley's has locations in Nashville and other areas of Tennessee. On this visit, I was looking for something different from my usual barbecue staple,s which are brisket, ribs and steaks. I ordered the Chicken Platte,r which comes with half a smoked chicken, a side of beans, coleslaw, corn bread and pickles. The chicken was very flavourful and was a very healthy portion, and I was almost unable to try the beans and the cornbread. Overall, it was a decent-sized meal that I was barely able to finish. Edleys makes great chicken, and I would try it again if I have a chance to go back.
