I ordered the 10$ quesadilla meal (sub queso +1$) with a macaroni and cheese side (+4$), and I loved the brisket in the sandwich and the mac n cheese was delicious. My only complaint was that 4$ is a bit steep for how much side you actually get. There were a few combos rib + meat combos that came with sides included but all drinks were ordered separately so the cost definitely added up quickly. The service was polite, friendly, and quick with an interesting walk-up to order system, with them bringing your food to you once you're sat. The ambiance was a bit eclectic and wasn't quite what we were expecting, but it did the job and didn't take away from our experience. Tables are small and only fit about 4 but there's plenty of open space in the restaurant that I'm sure you could push a table together if needed. Bathrooms were clean!

It's a counter service joint; you walk up, order, and then someone runs the food to your table. First off, they asked for a point of service tip; that bugs me when I'm ordering my own food at the counter and fetching my own drinks. The menu is fairly standard for a southern BBA joint; brisket, pulled pork, ribs, turkey, chicken. I am generally suspicious of any place that offers chopped brisket. Brisket is meant to be sliced and enjoyed as a slab of meat, not as a pile of hash. So, the chopped brisket sandwich was out for me. I asked if the brisket platter would be served as slices, and they assured me it was, so I ordered brisket with two sides. They recommended the beans and the Mac 'n cheese, so that's what I went with. They also asked me if I wanted the meat lean, marbled, or half and half; I took that as a good sign, and asked for marbled. They food came out in about 5 mins; just enough time for me to head to the soda fountain and fill my own cup. Maybe they should tip me? On the plus side, the portions were pretty large. I'm guessing that the served at least 6-8 ounces of brisket, and the individual sides were pretty large as well. On the other hand, whoever sliced the brisket simply didn't know what they were doing. They sliced it WITH the grain, producing slices full of stringy meat. Stringy meat that was hard to cut with the plastic cutlery provided. I find it hard to believe that anyone who regularly serves BBQ brisket doesn't know to cut the meat against the grain. The meat appeared to feature a nice bark; however, on further exploration, a) the bark was so tough that it couldn't be cut as all with the plastic cutlery, and b) when I tore into it with my fingers and ate a piece, it had no taste. Not even a basic Texas salt and pepper rub could be detected. A large portion of tasteless, poorly cut meat does no one any favors. The beans were a little underdone; IMHO, that's far better than mushy, overcooked beans. However, they, too, had no flavor. No spice, nada. The mac and cheese was shells in a white cheese sauce. Strike 3; zero flavor for the sauce. I don't know how you can make cheese sauce without flavor, but they managed to do so. I have never, ever thrown as much food away at a a BBQ joint than I did today. What a shame. Not recommended, not even a little bit. Try Martin's or Edley's; if you prefer a chain, Mission BBQ will do you much better than Hogwood.

Our server was amazing. Brisket is 'market price'. There is a decent amount BBQ offerings with a few quirky things like smoked tamales (which were great). My husband chose a build your own burrito with brisket, side of mac and cheese. I chose the brisket platter with mac and cheese and green beans for a side. We were not super impressed with either offering. My platter was disappointing in that more than half the piece of each brisket was fat, the small amount of meat was a bit dry but did offer a lot of smoke flavor. We also had a margarita, which was good with a tajin rim and finished the meal with banana pudding.

I've been to…read moreall of the Edley's locations around Nashville, but this one is by far the best for families, mostly because of the outdoor play area. Parking was super easy, and the woman at the counter was friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were clean, and the restaurant itself is spacious with plenty of tables and room to spread out, which is always appreciated when dining with little kids. My kids played outside while we waited for our food, but the food came out quickly. The kids' meals are some of the best values in town. One tip: the bun on the kids' cheeseburger is huge compared to the patty. I asked if they could add an extra patty, and they did for just $1. After removing some of the bun, it made for a much better burger and still kept the meal incredibly affordable. The spicy chicken tacos are also some of the best tacos in town. Our family of five ate for about $50. We usually buy Edley's gift cards at Costco, so our actual cost was closer to $40. It's refreshing to have a restaurant in Nashville that truly welcomes families while still serving great food. Highly recommend for anyone dining with kids.

Our group decided to sit in the common area so everyone could grab food from different restaurants.

I ordered the Tri-Star platter, which came with pulled pork, brisket, and pulled chicken. All three meats were tender and flavorful. Don't be shy with the BBQ sauce, it really takes everything to the next level. The platter comes with two sides. I chose one vegetable, baked beans, and one fruit, banana pudding. For those not from the South, macaroni and cheese is considered a vegetable, and banana pudding is absolutely a fruit. That's just science around here! The meal also included cornbread and slaw, making for a hearty plate of food. Everything was very good, portions were generous, and the service was excellent. Overall, a great BBQ experience with tasty food, friendly service, and plenty of seating options. I'd definitely come back hungry!

When I arrived, there were a few people ahead of me looking over the menu and placing their orders. After taking a look myself, I decided to try the chicken sandwich with a side salad. I also asked for the white BBQ sauce on the side since I had never tried it before and wasn't sure if I would like it. After placing my order and paying, I headed into the restaurant, found a table, set down my number, and waited for the food to be delivered. A few minutes later, my food arrived, and it looked really good. The chicken sandwich was massive, and the side salad was a generous size as well. I tried the white BBQ sauce first and was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't overly tangy or sweet. I also noticed a bottle of BBQ sauce on another table and wanted to give that a try, so I added a little to my sandwich. I'm not sure what variety it was, or if they offer multiple sauce options, but I actually preferred it to the white sauce. Eventually, I mixed the two together, and that combination ended up being just right for me. The sandwich was so large that I only finished about half of it. When I was ready for a to-go box, it took a little while to find someone to ask since there weren't many employees walking around the dining area. Once I tracked someone down, I packed up my leftovers and headed out. Overall, the chicken was good, and I enjoyed both sauces. That said, I've had BBQ at other places that I enjoyed more, and I'm not sure Edley's is somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit again. Still, it was a solid meal while spending the day at The Factory.

Absolutely not. The place is very easy going and all of the staff is super helpful and knowledgeable - especially when guiding you to a meal that balances what you want without totally over ordering (although that can't help me). Then you circle around to the food itself... the smoke on the meats is perfectly balanced with the natural flavor of the meat with the seasoning. The meats are also WET and JUICY in the best way and what you wanted to be fatty was the right level of fatty. My favorite is probably the ribs, followed by the wings with the Alabama white, and then a close tie for third but the big bologna takes the cake. GO TO MARTINS IF YOU WANT GOOD BBQ! And then go again the next night.

Nashville may quietly be an underrated barbecue mecca. You've got the Jack Cawthon's legendary…read moreJack's Bar-B-Que, pitmaster Carey Bringle's incomparable Bringle's Smokin' Oasis, and then you have Edley's. For the longest time, Bringle's was my absolute favorite in town, but Edley's may have just managed to take the crown. I almost feel like I'm cheating on Mr. Bringle by saying that, but as he famously put it, "You don't have to hate somebody else's barbecue to like mine." My default order at any top-tier joint is either a brisket plate or a multi-meat combo platter with brisket as the anchor. Edley's plates come properly equipped with two sides and a slice of cornbread. Where they really set themselves apart, though, is the menu flexibility: -The Add-Ons: You can throw on a $5 upcharge to add an extra 3 oz of meat or a jalapeño cheddar smoked sausage. -Burnt Ends: Edley's offers burnt ends, which is a bit of a rarity in town and something you don't easily find over at Jack's or Bringle's. If they're available when you order, grab them. Price-wise, Edley's isn't cheap, but it's far from overly expensive. It sits at fair market value, costing roughly what you'd pay for a comparable meal at any of the other major players in Nashville. The meats are high quality, wonderfully smoked, and packed with deep flavor. Beyond the rare burnt ends, the sauces here are what truly elevate the meal. Across the board, Edley's house sauces--from their classic red to their white sauce--are probably my personal favorites in the city. Between Jack's, Bringle's Smokin' Oasis, and Edley's, you genuinely cannot go wrong--Nashville barbecue is in great hands. But right now? Edley's holds my top spot. It is my ultimate "treat yourself" meal in town.
