Edley's BBQ - Lebanon Pike Stopped in for dinner and the experience was solid but not standout. The food overall was ok, but several items lacked the flavor I was hoping for. The brisket was tender enough but didn't have much depth or smoke. The ribs were nicely cooked and tender, but again, light on seasoning. Beans were good, potato salad was decent, and the smash burger landed somewhere in the middle. The ordering setup wasn't my favorite -- ordering before sitting down and having to go to the bar for a beer took away from the experience. Nothing was bad, but nothing really popped either. Good, not great. read more

Great Spot For Barbecue 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. read more

Edley's Bar-B-Que - Turkey platter and fish platter - Barbeque Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

My first visit to Edley's was fantastic! There are a few parking spots in the front for pickup orders, 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! read more

Highly recommended by multiple sources, we ventured from Opryland to Edley's BBQ prior to hitting the Grand Ole Opry. I know we are tourists, but we definitely enjoyed our time in music city, hanging with the locals and devouring some great food. Tennessee BBQ (ribs and brisket) at this joint is saucy, super tender, full of meat flavor and nicely coupled with some ice cold craft beer. Loved the coleslaw, collard greens and corn bread too. Pricing seemed reasonable, and although you stand in line to order, the follow up service was super attentive and all of the staff were pleasant. Southern hospitality charm coupled with great tasting generous portions, this place is a winner. read more

Decided on Edley's BBQ on Lebanon Pike for Dinner. Ordered the Brisket Platter with lean Brisket, added 3oz smoked turkey for an up charge with potato salad & coleslaw. The Brisket came with a little sauce in it, but it was really good plain. Tender and melt in your mouth. Excellent Brisket. The potato salad was very good with large chunks of potato and awesome flavor. The coleslaw was different, but good. Not my favorite and kind of sour, a little different, but would probably go best with pulled pork. The turkey was an absolute amazing surprise. This was real turkey breast, not that pieced together lunch meat they smoke and slice. This was incredibly delicious and worth it. My wife also got the Brisket Platter with beans and potato salad. She loved everything. Unfortunately I found out the turkey is not the same at all the locations. That was incredibly disappointing. I would definitely return to this location. I did try another Edley's location and that experience was not good. This location had solid food and great service. read more

I couldn't wait after my last review to try the catfish dinner....5 pieces of small fish. It was OK. My catfish sandwich was a lot better before. Sides: Cornbread 4 Mac: 3, Grits Casserole: 5, Potato Salad: 3 Banana Pudding: 5!! Amazing value for money. Especially Uber Eats deal. I love the attention to service and packing. You can tell that everything was double checked. I can't wait to try the bbq. read more

The lady taking the orders was initially not very welcoming, however, I had to understand that she probably has to deal with indecisive people all day. Our server was awesome though so it balanced out staff experience. The food was just ok. I did not like the mac n cheese nor the string beans. The brisket was tender but flavorless without sauce. I did love my jalapeno cheese sausage though. I tasted my friend's wing and that was delicious! Seems that this is a very popular local place so it's good to see everyone meeting up for dinner. read more

It was alright , didn't really have any flavor, we had the combo platter -pulled pork, chicken, Brisket and added on the jalapeño sausage with coleslaw and Mac and cheese. Pulled pork was bland no flavor really, the pulled chicken wasn't bad, probably the best meat on the platter. Brisket was over cooked, and really dry hard to swallow. Probably should've came off the smoker a little sooner! The sausage seemed like it was just heated up on a stove top. Coleslaw was drowned in vinegar. Maybe we just tried the wrongs meats, but I would come back. Employees were nice and friendly. read more

We came here for a short weekend trip and had to get some good barbecue that is hyped up in this city! It was very confusing to order and the lady was pretty impatient with us so we got everything. We got the platter with one of each meats of ribs, brisket, pulled pork, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, corn, fries and banana pudding. My favorite was the pulled pork and ribs- both tender and flavorful. The brisket was a little fatty and tough which was not to my liking. For the sides the mashed potatoes and corn were disgusting (also not a fan of sweet potatoes and the corn was watery). The banana pudding was a 100000/10. I never had pudding before and that was life changing. The mac and cheese and fries were average. Overall for the price and quality this place is worth it! You cant go wrong with getting any of the meats here. We paid like $60 for everything and it was well worth it! read more

Customer service was great. Was greeted when I entered and very friendly when answering questions. I ordered the brisket and jalapeno sausage dinner with grits casserole and green beans. It also came with cornbread. I also ordered a catfish sandwich. I love grits. Was unfamiliar with a grits casserole. It was good. They had a little kick but not bad. The green beans were very flavorful. The cornbread was okay. The brisket was okay. I appreciated that there wasn't a lot of fat on the slices. The barbecue sauce helped it which was sweet with a kick. The jalapeno sausage was good. I had never heard of the combination. The catfish sandwich was excellent. The catfish was fried perfectly and seasoned well. The tartar sauce was great. I only had one bite of each because it was late in the day. Leftovers were good. read more

Incredible food! Sat at the bar...depending on how busy the bartender is, service can get slow. Most people order and pay when entering, take their number to a table, then come to the bar to get alcohol ice beverages. Causes more of a strain on the bartender. But the food was amazing and I would highly recommend for good, TN BBQ. read more

Five stars for Edley's! The 2026 ice storm brought a set of challenges to the people of Middle TN. Edley's stepped up and is providing free hot sandwiches to linemen crew working hard to bring safety and normalcy to people's lives. Thank you and I am proud and honored to support people like you. read more

Went here for dinner last night and was pleasantly surprised. Being a Texan, BBQ on the road is sometimes questionable but Edley's delivered a stellar product. The restaurant feels like a typical BBQ house in Texas, great decor, good vibes and sweet smoky smell. I had the 2 meat plate, lean brisket and sausage and both were absolutely on point. The sauce had a good little kick to it making it the perfect compliment to the Smokey meats. The beans were called baked beans, but were more like good pinto beans with a sweet taste, they were very good. The service was good, there are no waitstaff, you order when you walk in, they give you a number and then a runner brings your food, drinks are self serve, so its hard to judge service so i will leave it at good. We will definitely return the next time we are in town. read more

We are in town from California celebrating my 40th birthday and wanted to stop for lunch before heading to the house for the weekend. I researched food ahead of time and decided to try Edley's - oh my goodness!! We are all sooooo pleased with this choice. We went hard with our options- we got the tri star platter, fried pickles, a jalapeño cheddar sausage, brisket sandwich, brisket fries and a bunch of other stuff amongst the table. We got the boozy milkshake and the Tennessee IPA. Everything was amazing!! I would 100% recommend this place. The service was great and the ambiance was chill, casual and easy. You walk in, order, pay, and they bring it to the table. read more

Edley's will forever be on my Nashville to-do list, even on a Monday it was packed and people were standing in a long line, fighting the rain to get there. That was enough to get me inside without a plan for what to order. First, I have to say get a combo platter, I can't imagine only getting one type of protein since everything looked so good. I'm not sure which was better, honestly, so I'll have to get a combo on my next visit, too. For sides, my choices were even more confusing, I wanted them all. But, settling on green beans and mac-and-cheese was an excellent plan as they were both incredible. The green beans did have a substantial amount of pepper, which was perfect, but may not be suitable for everyone. Oh, the cornbread, don't skip out on the cornbread. I can't wait to go back! read more

OKAY NOW NASHVILLE -- I don't remember the last time I had mac & cheese & it was it was good really, other than my own. This mac & cheese is incredible. I don't even like beef or anything like that, but I tried a little bit of brisket that I gave my dog and boy that was so good so tender and it tasted like organic . The green beans were amazing, the fried pickles amazing, my catfish sandwich was okay, but the flavor was there. I loved their in house made sauces too. I LITERALLY AM CRAVING AGAIN. I'm also giving four stars because the customer service is amazing, they were out of something and they communicated with me efficiently and politely with no problem. thank you so much. read more

Wanted to have some Tennessee barbeque before flying out of Nashville. Picked this location as close to airport and the high ratings. Was disappointed in the meal. Nothing worse than taking a bite of brisket in a darkened room and chewing into a chunk of fat! The sauce was so sweet and minimal flavor. The beans were flavorful but also were sweet. Cornbread and potato salad were quite good. The staff were friendly and facility clean and interesting. read more

First time here after seeing Edley's on Fox News but not exactly the same location this one was closer to our hotel. They have several locations to choose from. We arrived on Wednesday at 4:00 and it was 25% full. I ordered the burnt ends with Mac and cheese, was good a bit too much bread crumbs, the cornbread a bit dry, the burnt ends moist and tasty and the grits were good. I give my meal a 4. The wife had a juicy 1/2 chicken with delicious-collard greens and awesome green beans. The cole slaw was a tasty vinegar dressing that I loved. I gave her dinner a 4.5. Pretty good. The chicken came with barbecue and Carolina white sauce on top. She asked if they could redo the chicken without the sauce, it came very quickly. A great meal for under $40. read more

Wanted to try some authentic Nashville BBQ while in town and this restaurant had really good views. The food was good. I had the brisket and ribs combo with Mac and cheese and baked beans. The service was quick and efficient. The only thing that I didn't enjoy was the cornbread. I'm used to having plain cornbread however this one has corn and another Ingredient inside. Me personally, I wasn't a fan of that. But other than that throughly enjoyed it. If you are in the area I would recommend it. read more

We came to Nashville for a concert and was told about Edley's BBQ and had to try it. Food: the food is average in my professional opinion for a bbq resturant. The greatest food is the ribs which is well seasoned, nicely bbq, and tasteful. The side or okay; the collagreens too oily, mac&cheese a bit bland, the fries are really good, and the cornbread is amazing. The drinks are nicely mixed. Service: the staff is high upbeat and friendly. The service is good with attention to needs and provide service with a smile and provide feedback to what's popular and tasteful on the menu. Ambiance: the vibe is very traditional style like a Texas Roadhouse. Everything is open seating and country wood style. The overall is a 3.7/5 read more

Rude employees, order taker was just generally annoyed that there were customers in the place ordering food. Dark, smelly, noisy place with lots of rough hewn wood for bacteria to thrive in. Food was not bad. Maybe the bacteria growing in the walls helps add flavor. Ordered a non-approved combo of turkey and pulled pork, so, they just stuffed some pork in tin foil and threw it in the plate. ( see picture) Won't be back. read more

As soon as you walk into Edley's Bar-B-Que, you're immediately hit with that wonderful, smoky barbecue aroma that sets the tone for the meal. The layout was a bit confusing at first--we weren't quite sure where to go to order after parking--but a staff member quickly noticed our confusion and guided us in the right direction, which was much appreciated. Our food came out faster than expected. I ordered the catfish platter with the grits casserole and mac and cheese. The grits were excellent--perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of spice. They weren't overpowering, but had enough kick to remind you that you're in a barbecue joint. The mac and cheese was creamy and rich, with a slight crunch from the topping that really brought it together. The star of the meal was definitely the catfish. It was very good, though it did have a slight fishy taste--if that makes sense--but it still stood out as the highlight of the plate. My only real gripe was the coleslaw. It wasn't anything special and felt more like an afterthought on the edge of the plate. I'm not a huge slaw fan to begin with, but this one was just okay. Overall, the value of the meal was very fair, and the experience was a positive one. We're already talking about coming back the next time we fly out of BNA. read more

Moved here a week ago from Milwaukee and Chicago. Donelson area food scene disappoints. First joint my wife and I tried in the area. Got the tri-platter (chicken, pork, brisket)- the pork tasted good and smoked/charred- the chicken and brisket were a disappointment, along with the size- for $25+, we expected a decent portion to share, which was about 3 pieces each. Cornbread was a dry letdown. Mac n' Cheese upgraded side was small and 'breaded' with a few bread crumbs. Got a beer that was flat, and served in a 'mason jar' that wasn't even a 9oz beer for $10+. Service was fine, food was basic and lacking. read more

Good flavor. Ribs were really tough. Brisket pretty good Beans so-so. Not as expected (nor as experienced before at another location) and quite expensive. Very loud Tejano music blaring from the kitchen. Good for the workers, not so much for the paying customers who are expecting country. read more

Today our travels took us to "Nashvulle"! We were looking for a good bbq joint and came across Edlet's BBQ. It was about a hour to close, so we knew we were squeezing in. Upon entering, the lady that greeted us had a look disappointment that we wanted to dine in. She tried hard to get us to sit at the. At, which we did. To note, other tables had people sitting at them and there was still a hour of business. Upon sitting at the bar, the girl woman behind the bar seemed stretched thin. Took awhile to get our order taken. She was friendly and had recommendations. She did inform us they were out of chicken, which at that time of night wasn't too surprising. I ordered the sausage and brisket combo with 2 sides (baked beans and coleslaw). My wife got the burnt ends with baked beans and came with grits casserole. We ordered 1 banana pudding as an extra. Both dishes came with cornbread. The burnt ends were tender and really good with a nice burnt crust. The house bbq sauce was delicious! Little Smokey and a little sweet. The baked beans were tasty as well. The grits were good but there was just a very dense and heavy flavor... maybe cheddar or cream. Not sure. My brisket was tender and absolutely delicious. The sausage almost made me gag. I had to stop after the first bite. I hate cheese, and the platter didn't mention cheese sausage. Above it in another part of the menu it mentions you can add a jalapeño cheddar sausage for a few bucks.... But it doesn't say that for the platter. So I couldn't eat half of the combo. It should say in the description of each dish what you get. The coleslaw was very good. It tasted almost like apple vinegar. The corn bread on my platter was delicious. It was moist and very tasty. My wife's cornbread was absolutely disgusting and inedible. After she complained I tried a bite of hers and it was nothing like mine. I was biting into pure salt. I could hear, feel, and taste all the salt crunching in my teeth. We threw it out. As for service, not once in the hour we were there, did the bartender ask us how the food looked or tasted. She did offer a refill one time. The food did come out fast so there was that. Overall, the burnt ends and brisket were excellent!!! If you come here it is definitely worth checking out these options. I'm sure the pulled pork is good as well. The sausage should be clear what you get in the platter. I was expecting regular sausage, not cheese oozing out of it like crazy. My wife loves cheese and she couldn't eat it either because it seemed excessive. The pudding was good but very very thick and average. I'll give the brisket and burnt ends 5 stars, beans, pudding, and coleslaw 4 stars, grits 3 stars, and the jalapeño cheddar sausage -1 stars. The service is give 2 stars since we felt like an inconvenience. The manager said thank you but the our bartender/server did not. I asked for the bill and she never showed me it until after I gave her my card... she just asked for a card for payment. I wish I liked the big picture of Edley's, but I didn't. I'd rank them 2.5 stars. read more

Ordered delivery from here, so I can't speak on the restaurant location itself. The delivery arrived quickly and contained everything I ordered. I ordered brisket, pulled pork, green beans, slaw, cornbread, and pecan pie. The pork and brisket were so good! Very rich and juicy. The bbq sauce had some spice to it, which was nice. The sides were spot on. The slaw was vinegar based (nice!!). The pecan pie was VERY sweet. Probably too sweet for my liking, but I still enjoyed it.

Came here on Sunday for lunch... I will say I come here at least once a month and have never had any issues. However, this time I came in right when they opened. The brisket on the brisket platter I got for $22 was cold to where I could put my finger against it and feel a slight warmth. I took it back and got a new one which was no different. I talked to the manager and she said "I checked it myself and it was warm enough." The fact that she used the word "warm enough" was a dead give away. I reminded her that meat should be at 145 degrees at least and she claimed it was, and it was fresh. I worked restaurants for years and its probably brisket from the day before and they didnt warm it long enough in the holding container. Also, I order this exact dish once a month for a year so I know its usual temperature. If thats what you want to spend $22 on then by all means visit Edleys on Donelson. read more
