4 1/2 stars. Visited the Gallatin store about 3 weeks ago and didn't write a review. After trying "brand x" bbq place last night in a nearby town , decided I needed to. Had pulled pork platter with fries and slaw at Edleys. Portions were big; meat was cooked perfectly, fries good, and some of the best coarse slaw I've had in a long time. I get this exact same dish almost every time I go to a bbq place and this was one of the best. Service folks were nice and helpful as it was my first visit. Will definitely go again! read more

When they get busy the service level drops pretty significantly. I understand it gets busy but doesn't seem like they care a whole lot. Got fries that were hard and stale a couple of times. read more

Walked into Edley's BBQ tonight at 8:19 PM (they say they're open until 10), and it was a terrible first impression. Stood at the front waiting to be acknowledged while multiple staff members looked right at us, laughed, and completely ignored us. No greeting, no "we'll be right with you," nothing. We were actually excited to finally try this place, but after being treated like that, we walked out. If that's how customers are welcomed, I'll gladly spend my money somewhere else. Really disappointing experience. read more

Went there last Saturday at 5:30pm. It wasn't really busy, a fair amount of open tables. Come to find out, they ran out of brisket, they only had wagyu brisket (expensive as it is) and was only a substitute on the ribs and brisket plate. Can't substitute for any other brisket plate. Ok, I'll take that. I was there with two other people who ordered their meals, one wagyu plate (again, no other choice if you wanted brisket) and one a pork plate. Also order fried pickles, which after checking the receipt, never made it on the order. After an unusual amount of time, two plates come out, the wagyu plate and the pork plate but not the wagyu & ribs. Didn't want the food to get cold so I asked my friends to begin eating their meal. Having eaten almost all their food, the waiter noticed this and brought out my wagyu plate but no ribs... they were still preparing the ribs. Said they were on their way. I started to eat still waiting on my ribs. I pretty much finished my entire meal when the ribs finally showed up. My friends had finished eating for a while and frankly, I didn't want to be there scoffing down the ribs so I asked for a box to take them home. The food was so-so... the wagyu brisket had a soapy taste, and my sides were had cooled because of the wait. Very disappointed in this expecting much more from an establishment like this. Aside from the excessive wait, the staff was pleasant and I'm sure tried to do their best. May give them another chance but at this time, would not recommend going there. read more

So I was coming back home from my Sunday night hockey game and as I passed what I call "Restaurant Row", I realized I had nothing to eat for dinner. Or rather, I didn't feel like cooking. It was 7 o'clock and I just had Edley's the Wednesday prior at their Murphy Road location. I was craving those ribs again, so I made a U-turn and went back. Being so "late" on a Sunday in the suburbs, it wasn't very busy at all. Nobody was at the front register for several minutes until someone peeked around at the to-go area and told someone else. As you may know, I'm a man of habit. I ordered nearly the exact same thing as I always do at Edley's but swapped up the sides. Half Slab St. Louis Ribs platter, Chess Pie, but Grits Casserole and Collard Greens. If there's a vegetable side dish I love more than any other, it's any kind of greens. The fact that they had them (they normally aren't on the menu) was a no brainer. The grits casserole was a last minute swap up but I'm glad I tried them. Now, the thing with going late to any restaurant, especially barbecue joints is that the food tends to "age" as the day goes on. Like, your food isn't as "fresh" as if you came earlier in the day. I knew this going in but I wanted to point this out. The greens were delicious but because I went in late in the day, they were super tangy from the vinegar being cooked down over time. They had a nice heat to them and the leaves were overly cooked, but I enjoyed them nevertheless. The grits casserole had a nice rich cheesey flavor incorporated into them. Just like the collard greens, there was a subtle heat that sat on your tongue after the initial bite. The cornbread was fantastic. Warm, sweet, with also a heat kick to them. Lastly the ribs hit the spot, just like I expected them to. Compared to the other Edley's (where I went during prime time lunch), these were a little dry but they had the same flavor profile. Meaty, fatty, and tangy-sweet with that nice crunch of cartilage at the end. I ended up taking my chess pie home to heat up in the microwave (who eats cold pie)?? As always, it was fantastic. The only reason this wasn't as good as the other review is because I came at the end of the day and the food "sat" over time in their warmers and such. Like I said in my prior review for the Murphy Rd Edley's, Edley's has always been consistent no matter which location I go to and that's why it still gets a 5*. read more

I ordered a Lb of pork just to sit there for 15 mins and them tell me someone else that ordered online is getting it. Worst service. Go to Smokehouse or Friday and sat go to The boss BBQ read more

First, the music was great, it lifted my spirits walking up to the front door. When you walk in youre hit with that pleasant smoky smell you expect from a bbq joint. We came in kinda late, so it wasn't crowded. Kai recommended the dry rubbed wings (they were definitely 5 star) and banana pudding (3 star). Our food came pretty fast. I had the pork platter, but my pork was a little cold, so I got that cold greasy bite that turned me off. However the grits casserole was fantastic. I like grits, but this My hubby had the brisket and rib combo. The brisket was tender and flavored nicely. The ribs were a little tough. My grandma made the best banana pudding, so I'm always on the lookout for a good one. The one I had was a little drier than I would have liked, but wasn't bad. I am not a fan of ordering drinks separately from food, but it wasn't bad. I could see where a busy night might make it a little more tricky. I will absolutely come back for the wings and grits! read more

This BBQ place has already been a staple for me, this is my second time coming to Edley's. This time I got the 3 Brisket Tacos with 2 sides, the grist casserole and green beans. The tacos were so good! I don't love tomatoes, so I took those off, but the brisket is seasoned well with a good sauce and fried jalapeños inside! I ate and enjoyed all 3 of them! The grits casserole is also sooo good, but I also love grits the green beans are cooked in liquid and seasoned well, I couldn't finish them all because I ate everything else! The restaurant is nicely decorated with plenty of seating and an expansive bar with tons of options. Make sure you bring you ID because they card regardless of how old you are! read more

I've visited this location a few times now, and my experiences have been mixed. The first time, I ordered the burnt ends -- they were decent. On my next visit, I tried the brisket, which was fantastic. Most recently, I had the ribs, but they were unfortunately dry and tough. I really do love Edley's overall, but the quality at this location feels a bit inconsistent. That said, the service is always outstanding. The staff truly go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome, which I really appreciate. One small gripe: when we ordered drinks from the mobile page, one of them was unavailable, and they weren't able to issue a refund -- only a swap. Not a huge deal, but worth noting. Bottom line: Yes, it's still worth going. The food is generally good, the space is clean and comfortable, and the people there are wonderful. I've only visited during weekday lunches, so it's possible dinner service hits a higher note. Almost forgot- they have the BEST banana pudding. 100% a must try! read more

Usually whenever barbecue comes to mind I usually expect the meat to be some what chewie or dry, but this by far is the most tendered meat i've had in a while! Absolutely loved it. Service was great. Everyone's friendly and welcoming. My only complaint is the time it takes for the food, and how long it takes the servers to clean tables. Good thing they have TV's and classic country music playing to keep everyone distracted. read more

Edley's Bar-B-Que - "Tri Platter" - Chicken Wings Near Me - Gallatin, Tennessee

While vacationing, wanted to get some southern BBQ. We got the full rack of ribs with cole slaw and baked beans, and brisket platter with mac & cheese and banana pudding. We liked the ribs, baked beans and BBQ sauce the most. Other side dishes lacked flavor and I probably wouldn't order again. Little disappointing that brisket was not tender and dry. Although there is inconvenience to order food separately from beverages at the bar, service was friendly and good. read more

Food quality and service level has dropped! :( Loved this place, but now 3-4 times now we waited for our order, food, drinks, etc...workers don't care any more :( read more

I've been here twice and I really love the barbecue. The brisket has been my favorite so far. I need to try the ribs. Their beans are spot on amazing. Their prices are a little high, so I need to budget when I know I'm going there. read more

We love coming to this location. Sitting on the patio is always enjoyable. On our next visit we hope to try out the little putting green. My baby isn't quite old enough for the kind of food that they have on their kids menu. But, I get the chicken platter with no sauce on the chicken and for $1 extra they shred it. It makes it so easy for sharing with her. Fries are never listed on the sides but they have them since they have a fry appetizer. My husband never has an issue getting fries as a side. The cornbread is so good and upon request they will bring you honey for it. The Mac and cheese is a $1 extra has a side but when I ordered that I was surprised to see the charge. When I looked back at the chalkboard menu I noticed how faint the $1 was. Not a big deal but just something to be mindful of. Our favorites our the chicken platter, anything with pork, and the smash burger. For sides, we love green beans, banana pudding and collard greens. We are here at least twice a month if not weekly. read more

This was our first time at an Edley's and it was a disappointing meal all around. It took 25-30 minutes for us to get our food after we ordered at the counter and it was not a busy night overall. The brisket and chicken were cold by the time we got our food, which was extra frustrating after waiting so long. The restaurant itself was also freezing and it was an uncomfortable meal. This is just not a good restaurant and they need to fix several things before it would be a place that we'd return to in the future. read more

Walked in and walked through a line placed my order and found a table. I got the 8 wing platter. Wings are a little tough and I don't like feathers on my wings. I think that they could be cooked a little longer. I had one that was not cooked/raw inside. I voiced my concern. Well, Hunter came right out to talk to me about the wings. He is the Pit Master here. I really appreciate that they took out the time to talk to us. Well this time I got the turkey platter and it's plentiful. The turkey is tender and good. My better half got the ribs and brisket platter with green beans and potato salad brisket is really tender and the ribs are really good. I'd come back. I just won't get wings. By the way Hunter gave us a banana pudding for our troubles. I Really appreciate that too and the longer I sit here the more it's filling up when I first came in. It wasn't that many folks here but now it's getting really crowded. Great place for family gatherings. The ambiance is not overwhelming/ too loud. Nice country western music. Some oldies of rock and roll too. Edley's, Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

How this place only has 3.7 stars is beyond my comprehension. Their BURNT ENDS are the BEST bbq in this area by a long shot. Yes, I am comparing it to the famous 1st place RIDGEWOOD BARBECUE in Bluff City. It is a close 2nd place to all others in this state. I don't care if it is a chain now or not. On my most recent visit I had the pleasure of indulging in the PORK SANDWICH NASHVILLE STYLE. It is pretty hot, but very tasty. I ate half of the sandwich as I was full! Big portions. Nose running, mouth tingling, it was delicious. After about 5 minutes of no contact with the sandwich, my mouth was back to normal. It is a creeping heat. I paired it with a side of BEAN SALAD. Ambiance 100%. Tip well! read more

We had a party of 45 we needed catered so we called up Edleys the king of the bbq. They did not disappoint. Plenty of pulled chicken, pulled pork, Mac n cheese, beans, potato salad cornbread and buns. Everything was delicious and was delivered in a timely manner. Bbq sauce was spot on but we also had white bbq sauce which was actually quite good everyone left happy and with leftovers. Nice work Edleys! read more

Let me start off by saying we almost didn't stop here because of the previous reviews. My husband loves BBQ and is super picky about it. He had ribs, brisket & baked beans, he gave this place a 4.5! Banana pudding was good too. The BBQ nachos could use a little more effort or artistic flare. We would definitely eat here again! Leaving the extra 1/2 star review because they allowed us to have our dog on the patio read more

Tried this new spot for the first time and was pleasantly surprised! The ambiance is cozy but modern--great vibe for a casual dinner or date night. The food was flavorful and clearly made with fresh ingredients (highly recommend the [insert dish if you'd like]). Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Definitely adding this to my rotation! read more

Love this place and the vibe inside is awesome! Never had a bad meal here and next time I want to sit at the bar to try that all out.

Update: The management reached out to my husband and apologized. They sent us a gift card to give them another try to show us they have good brisket. We hesitated for several weeks and then decided to give it a try. My husband said the brisket was much better and the way brisket should be. Then this evening we gave it another try and the manager who we spoke to originally was on staff, she apologized for how she came off that night and for the food. This evening I had the smash burger and it was very good. My kids love the banana pudding and their fries are very good. I'm glad this turned around as it is right down the road from our home. Thank you to the staff at Edley's read more

A wonderful place for great Gallatin BBQ. Everything is succulent and made fresh. I love their daily specials!!

Nice patio for seating with a small putting green for amusement while you wait for food. The tables needed to be cleared, but there were still quite a few tables to choose from (we were there probably during the lunch rush). The food was good. Not the best brisket, but the sausage was very good. My standards for meat, because I don't eat it that often, are high and I was disappointed with the brisket. It's a nice restaurant and feels spacious. It will be a good addition to the area. read more

I got my food to-go so can't rate the ambiance or service but the pulled pork was great! The banana pudding was not good. Was total mush basically. Not what I'd expect from a southern barbecue place. Hopefully they can fix that recipe because I love banana pudding. read more

The brisket alone was a zero, however- the sides and other entrees were good, hence an overall score of two. I found the brisket to be overcooked, dry and lifeless, and I expected a whole lot more from Edley's. read more

Food, service and ambiance was amazing . I always bring guest from out of town here. I can't wait to bring them back!

Figured I would add my two cents. Restaurant is new to this location so take that for what it's worth. My wife and I walked in and there is a line nearly out the door. Line doesn't move and looking out in the seated crowd, there is no seating available. We decided to do the takeout right next door. They do not notify you when the food is ready to be picked up so after 20 min(not bad), I walked In and my food was up on the rack waiting for me to get it. My review of actual food is this. We both got the brisket and it was just ok. Wifey said the green beans were good and I enjoyed the Mac and cheese. Definitely not worth the wait. I would recommend waiting till the newness wears off before visiting. read more

I've been to the new Hendersonville location several times and I think it's their best location yet! Brisket is always on point! The Brisket Tacos, Tuck Sandwich, Hot chicken..

Edley's Bar-B-Que - Brisket Tacos with a side of grits casserole! Excellent! - Chicken Wings Near Me - Gallatin, Tennessee

Worth the drive if downtown is further. Food was so good that some sides were out of stock , like the grits casserole. Line to order was long but they brought it to our table not too long after sitting with our number. It was busy but not too loud. This location seems bigger or atleast more spacious than downtown. The line to order never got shorter so if you see something you like , just order it on your way 1st run and grab a container to go if it's too much. Wasn't impressed with Mac n cheese but I'm not a Mac n cheese person, would've preferred grit's casserole which was out or maybe a different side read more

Edley's Bar-B-Que - Tristar sampler ( chicken, pork& brisket with potatoes salad , Mac n cheese and cornbread) also a order of deep fried ribs with bbq sauce - Chicken Wings Near Me - Gallatin, Tennessee

I've always been a fan of Edley's and I am thrilled they have opened in this area. Finally we have great barbecue (and everything else) with a full bar and wonderful atmosphere! I have done dine-in at the bar and a large takeout order since they opened in Gallatin and both were exceptional!!!! I'm working my way through the whole menu because I want to try everything. So far things I particularly love : the brisket! The white sauce! The hot sauce! The pork, the turkey, the potato salad, the coleslaw, the grits, the cornbread, the tuck sandwich, the banana pudding, the baked beans,the green beans....anyway everything is delicious! If you're looking to try stuff I highly recommend the sampler platter for dine in or takeout. It's great! read more

I returned to Edley's at the request of a group of friends tonight. I ordered the Southern salad with chicken and it was good! A friend ordered ribs and they looked fresh and moist. We sat on the patio, and the bartenders took excellent care of us. One star up and climbing. read more

Food was good liked sausage. BBQ pork was a little dry but not terrible. I don't like not having table service. We went to bar area so group could have couple drinks without several tabs. read more

This is my husband's favorite restaurant in Gallatin. He wants to eat here every day. I highly recommend the brisket tacos. They are unlike anything I've ever eaten and I love them. They are Smokey, with a little bit of sweet and spicy flavor. The fried jalapeños on top really makes it. I don't like spicy food at all but these are wonderful. I also really like the catfish. It comes in crispy strips with deliciously seasoned batter. The catfish goes well with the green beans and fries. I also like their potato salad but it isn't for everyone. I think it's a sour cream based potato salad with red skin potatoes, bacon bits, and a little ranch seasoning. read more
