for $10.95, you are always well fed with tasty food from scratch. whether it is their world famous hamburger steak, pork shoulder bbq, catfish, or any of the sides like bbq beans, white beans, turnip greens, potato salad, etc., we have never been disappointed. this is a neighborhood gem of a local business which deserves to be rewarded. although it is never advertised, they even go the extra mile to offer their military vets free drinks. ms patty and her entire staff are amazing, especially our favorites, ms ashley and rhonda! this is a must visit local attraction. read more

Barbecue ribs are delicious! Half rack enough to feed two. Great food! Waitress attentive and making sure drinks filled.

Visiting from Southern California , wanted to see if BBQ was any good down here and was left disappointed . Customer service was good no problem there , food was terrible . Like I never throw food away and I threw most of it out. Maybe the food in California has more salt or seasoning or whatever but this was so bland. Catfish was ok at best. Country fries bland as heck. Mac and cheese was watery and tasted weird. Fudge pie seemed store bought or something . And then they only take cash, I didn't like it but maybe locals have different taste buds . read more

The perfect hole in the wall, family owned, bbq joint. Ample seating inside compete with tables on the porch for outdoor dining when weather permits. The burger is definitely the best in town! Always fresh and huge portions of food! The service is friendly and attentive. The food is always worth the wait (which is 0-1hr given the time and day). read more

Every time we have ate at Top Hog the service is on spot and friendly. The food is always fabulous and fresh

Great people and great food! Drop by and bring your cash they don't do plastic. Fast service.

Food was delicious, portions were generous. service excellent even as the restaurant was very busy.

Everything from food and service, they never disappoint. Always part of our gotta visit places to eat.

My husband & I went on a Friday night around 6:30 it was extremely busy and had to wait probably 20 to 30 minutes for a table. This was our first visit. My husband had catfish, white beans & onion rings. I had BBQ, hoecakes, baked beans & potato salad. Not a fan of their potato salad but everything else was good. We both had their fruit tea it was delicious. The staff was really hustling but was friendly and on top of things. I will give it a 4 read more

This place is a true delight. So much charm and character! Bring your cash as they don't take credit cards! And snag a seat to enjoy kind service and quality food. The inside has that great country cabin feel, or you can get a nice rustic out door seat. The deviled eggs were southern perfection. Turnip greens come with a nice kick, and you have to try the hoecakes. Giant cold glass of ice tea out of a mason jar can never be wrong. read more

Best BBQ in Gallatin and super friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I do wish they would put more money into the restaurant to update a few things.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I always recommend Top Hog! read more

Nestled adjacent to the city's historic African American neighborhood, Top Hog can be difficult to find for those unaccustomed to Gallatin but it is worth the effort. The pork sandwich is big, juicy, full of flavor, amazing. But this place also has one of the best catfish sandwiches around. If you are hungry, get both! Prices are very reasonable and service is friendly. Take out is available, which is what we used yesterday. Some limited outside seating. The business is cash only, has always been that way. We invented ATMs so places like Top Hog can stay traditional. Plenty of parking but at lunch it can be busy. read more

Ribs made fresh, place was constantly abuzz. We arrived after lunch rush around 1:30 and initially were told they were out of ribs and wouldn't have anymore until 4pm. They had some afterall and they were excellent. Meat fell right off the bone. I enjoyed the mac n cheese, though it was simple and didn't taste quite as homemade as the rest of the meal...Kraft was that you? BBQ sauce was vinegar based, so just be aware if that's not your style. It did upset my stomach later in the day. Could've also been from chugging the quart of water they serve you in mason jars. All in all, lunch was reasonably priced and good. Would be willing to go back and just get the BBQ BUT my absolute favorite part of lunch was the cherry cobbler dessert of the day. Hands done it was the best part of the meal and so stinkin good. Warm, fresh, with a scoop of real vanilla ice cream on the side, and a small scoop, so it didn't drown the cobbler. I'd go back for that dish alone. read more

They have fantastic fried cat fish and corn cakes(Ho cakes). Pulled pork is very good. They only take cash. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very casual dinning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A true southern BBQ restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not fancy, but clean, good service and good food![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I Highly recommend this restaurant if you want real southern food. read more

Had the pork platter with mac & cheese and baked beans. Pork was fine, but the sauce could be described as colored vinegar. There was macaroni, but not really any cheese other than whatever cheese water was at the bottom of the cup. I could fill a shot glass with it. Baked beans were overwhelming with onions, the first bite was more reminiscent of cucumber salad something else that tastes like raw onion. It's more of a meat and 3 than a bbq joint, similar to a ready to eat grocery store meal. read more

Food is always consistent and a good value. Fried catfish is good and their cheeseburger is a great value.

Love this place. Excellent food:catfish, burgers, bbq pork, ribs, salads, fruit tea, onion rings. Servers are always sweet and working very hard Ambience: clean down home. Nothing fancy. U don't have to dress up. Just bring your appetite. Can take 30 minutes or so to get a table. Don't go if u r in a hurry. read more

I have heard about this place having great BBQ and catfish! My wife and I decided to check it out and we are so glad we did! WOW, once inside we felt like a rustic home restaurant serving great food. It is located in a rough looking area but don't let that stop you. No alcohol is served which is fine with me. The fruit tea is perfect! I had cornbread cakes which were delicious with Cole slaw, white beans (with cut up onions) and fried catfish. My wife had BBQ with turnip greens and country fries. Well worth the trip and will definitely be back! read more
