    Great BBQ spot in Nashville. Their meat will just fall off the bone, as well as their famous coleslaw. You line up to order at the counter so the service is really quick. They will bring the food to your table which makes it easier. Plenty of seatings, fun decoration and amazing staff.

    $23+tax meat platter. Was supposed to be beef brisket with a side of fries and potato salad. More like fries with a side of meat.. there is no way this is right. A manager or owner could not stand behind this.

    Food has never disappointed. Had the brisket platter, baked potatoes, pulled pork platter and side of Mac n cheese. People are always nice and the food was delivered very fast. Been here every time we've been in Nashville and always enjoy it. Today gets 4 stars because a very sick mouse dropped from the rafters on to the table next to us. It rolled around on the table and then dropped on the floor. We thought it was funny when the group of girls at the next table noticed and freaked. We did laugh, but truth is it does take a little bit of the shine off the meal! We will be back though.

    Brisket- dried
    Angela W.

    We wanted to avoid the lines so we came to this place instead of the downtown location. Brisket- we forgot to order extra moist so it was dried. Ribs - flavorful but on the salty side, and on the dried side. Pulled pork - soft and tender. Sides: Mac N cheese- not bad Baked beans - ok Green beans - it was good so I thought it was homemade. Then I noticed the cans at the front entrance on our way out. Desserts: Pecan pie - delicious. Not overly sweet like all other Pecan pies I have tried. Brownie cake - dried and chewy. Not recommended.

    Catfish on a hoecake

    Wow wow wow!!! I got the Catfish on a hoecake and my friend got the ribs... everything was SO delicious! Very flavorful and tender and the pecan pie was phenomenal! We were full all day! I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

    Wanted a beer came in for a quick bite. Got the brisket chili and the bologna sandwich with a side of coleslaw. Brisket chili is flavorful has amazing toppings great little quick bite. The bologna sandwich is something I've never seen before. Service was great ambience's for sure smokehouse vibes

    Cornbread and chicken

    We came to this location after trying to visit another location on a Friday night because the previous location didn't have anything left. The staff were so friendly and helpful, they have a full bar with some strong drinks. We got some brisket, chicken, sausage, pulled pork, they ran out of ribs. For sides we got cornbread pancake, broccoli, mac and cheese. I really Liked the broccoli. We also got the pecan pie and the fudge pie. We devoured our meal and there was plenty of seating. This spot is in more of a residential area so less touristy.

    Awesome 3person musical talent

    The food was amazing. There were plenty of items to choose from. There was an awesome live music Trio, that saying modern and retro country songs and had the most beautiful voices.

    Red neck taco with hush puppies.

    I went here for lunch as a referral from a local hotel bellman. Entering the restaurant, I had high expectations. The food was mediocre bbq. They don't have sauces that you can self serve. The hostess gives it to you. The pulled pork was dry. Not worth the price.

    Mac and cheese
    Rosalind C.

    Maybe it's because im from Texas and we have alot of options for bbq. This place was recommended so we decided to try. The staff were friendly but the food was not. The ribs were overcooked and almost tasted oven baked. The crust on the mac and cheese was good but not season. The entire experience was ok at best. I wouldn't return because I am sure there are more options to try. I should have went with my first mind when walking in. If you don't smell smoke don't buy it.

    Menu

    everything was pretty good. We may just not be fans of cornbread though. Service was very fast.

    Nice location and very friendly staff. Easy parking as they have a lot, I could see if busy it could be full but we weren't around 5 and had no issues. Food was good but would have been better hot, mac and cheese was clearly sitting out for awhile, same as the fries. The pulled pork sandwich tons of flavor, they have two sauces I went with the sweet and it was tasty. Just need to improve temp on all food and would have been great!

    Are the meats all gluten free?

    I don't believe so Kristin. I would ask them what specific items do not have gluten. It can be hidden in a lot of things.

    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

It's easy to find in East Nashville...just look for the bright pink house! 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.
