    The Bushwacker, a frozen delight
    Char C.

    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!

    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!

    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.

    Brisket Platter with mac & cheese and banana pudding

    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.

    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.

    Cold chicken

    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.

    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!

    PORK SANDWICH NASHVILLE STYLE BBQ and a side of BEAN SALAD.
    Austin T.

    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!

    I got the barbecue avocado plate and added turkey . There was so much flavor and I love the bacon and sauce on there. I had some of the grit casserole too and it was nice and cheesy and had a nice kick to it The service was very good and I definitely want to go back and try more items on the menu .

    The spread.

    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!

    I recently moved to Gallatin Tennessee and every time I jump on Yelp I see this place for home…read morecooked food. Today I realized it was right down the street from me so I stopped by, no one came to the counter right away so I was able to snap a picture of the menu. As I tried to sneak out the owner came to the window and I felt compelled to order a fish plate and wings. I just wanted to check the menu because I knew I wouldn't want to pay $20 for food. I left and came back about 20 minutes later and the food was ready and still very hot. My 2 plates only came out to $13 and change so I was very happy about that. The food taste amazing to say the least. My wings were seasoned perfectly and came with a Buffalo ranch sauce that my mom used to make at home, didn't even know that sauce was a real thing! The fish was perfectly crispy and the coleslaw different, since it had relish and mustard in it, and still very good. The best part of it all to me were the fries, I love how they were seasoned and soft. I could not tell for sure but some of my wings looked like the meat may have been old or previously thawed out, learned that from watching kitchen shows on TV. Still very good and not worth losing a star over. This restaurant is only open Thursday through Saturday and it's tucked off in a neighborhood beside the public works office.

    The food here is awesome. Large portions and perfectly seasoned. Try this southern/soul food…read moreimmediately. The owners couldn't be any nicer. Food is made fresh to order, so expect to wait a few minutes. But then again, all good things come to those who wait.

Try them and you won't be disappointed.

But so many other reviews were positive and my hubby was dying for a burger. Our server was ?Maples? She was kind, fast and brought drink refills with perfect timing, even though she had multiple tables, including a large party of 7 or more. Hubby had the Mojo burger and liked it. My kiddo had a standard burger, she said it was good. Her fries were a little cool. Not cold, but not warm. We also got an order of wings, and loved them. I had thr fried chicken with fried okra and sweet potato fries. The fries were meh, but the okra and chicken were excellent. I would definitely recommend the fried chicken!

    We decided to try it again. When this restaurant first opened, it was as good as its other…read morelocations. Then, leadership and personnel very quickly took a nosedive. Written reviews matched our secondary experiences. The service was disjointed, and uncoordinated, and the food, should have never been brought to the table. But the claims of, "Under New Management", offered some hope of reviving the standards that had previously earned their namesakes, reputation and growth. This morning's breakfast experience was an astounding disappointment. Greeted and seated by cordial, pleasant staff, we were a party of 3, occupying only the second table, at 9:15 AM. (That emptiness itself should have been a hint of what was to come.) It took much longer than expected just to get coffee and water. Still longer, to place an order, and nearly half-an-hour for the actual meal service. The quality of the food, was nothing short of astonishingly poor. Most notably, cold. Considering there were only two tables occupied in the entire dining room, the cold servings were the first indication of coordination, communications, process, and standards shortfalls. The food preparation showed the skillsets of a 12 year-old, trying to mimic Mom's kitchen routine. How can a restaurant cook not do toast? It was white bread, with a slightly stiff outer layer. Most people would describe it as, "stale bread"; not toast. The pancakes served with the "Lieper's Fork Favorite", were beyond belief. Three hard little discs, served cold, with chilled hard pats of butter, and NO syrup. I actually demonstrated to the very nice server, that the pancakes could NOT be cut with a fork. Again - could NOT be cut with a fork! Come on... They're PANCAKES! Not a single bite could be sampled, without the utility of a knife. I am not a small person. I tried three places around the brown discs to acquire a bite. Țhe effort was foreboding enough. Ì surrendered. The scrambled eggs and bacon were edible, though lacking temperature, and uncaring presentation. When the server saw that the pancakes were as fork resistant as a Frisbee, she took the plate to the kitchen manager. He was a nice, apologetic young man, who acknowledged that the pancakes were "Overcooked on one side..." He did offer to make more. I declined. I told him I sincerely appreciated his offer. But the issue was much deeper, than plastic pancakes. As indicated by the lack of clientele in a fairly large restaurant, there was a blinding flash of the obvious. They were squandering the owner's investment. The kitchen staff lacked the skillsets to produce the simplest traditional American Breakfast - and - the wisdom to refrain from placing it up for service. The plating looked SO incredibly bad, that it was obvious that both standards and personal pride were totally absent. The staff was nice. Ignorance is curable. Training, processes, and well established standards can develop nice people into effective business associates. It's not their fault. They have NO leadership directions. The owners have let them down. Țhose owners have had ample signals and time to cure these maladies. They have a model, in their other facilities - that's how / why they opened more than one restaurant. But those owners are apparently oblivious to the signals of absentee management, process inconsistency, and the gross lack of product standards, leading to failure. To those nice people working at Puckett's, I have a sincere recommendation. The best time to find a job, is when you already have one. Your current employer is going to fail; sooner rather than later. They will surely continue with their communications shortfalls. They will not tell you in advance. They will simply let you go when they finally lock the doors. Take care of yourself. FInd an employer who has a distinct business survival plan. Such plans, include coordination, process leadership, training, and holding a team accountable to perform to the standards they were trained to. You're not getting that.
