Saying this is the best BBQ in town doesn't say much, because there aren't many BBQ places in the area. With that said, I've been to Top Hog a few times, and while my food has always been good, it has never been fantastic. Don't go during the lunch rush if you are in a hurry, or if you have little patience. This place is always pretty busy, so you may have a line just for a table. BBQ is OK, but if one surveys what the other patrons are eating, one will quickly see that this place sells a lot of burgers. For the $$$, the burgers are probably the best value on the menu. The ribs and pork are OK, but make for an expensive lunch when compared to the burger or fried fish. read more

Love this place ! Fun atmosphere and great food . Huge portions ... Last visit we couldn't get a seat . We had a large family group and there were lots of people waiting to eat so we ended up leaving . I was so looking forward to eating here again ! I will be back fighting for a seat next time I'm in gallatin ! read more

This is a very old fashioned place with great prices and great food. The burgers, BBQ, ribs, and catfish are all very good. The burger is one of my favorites and can compete, value wise, with any burger in Nashville. The ladies working there are all extremely nice and sweet. This is definitely a hole in the wall you need to check out. read more

This has been one of my go to restaurants for a long time. But now they have totally lost my Friday afternoon trip for catfish, hamburgers or bbq. We arrived at 1:45 Friday afternoon and it was still about half full. And we were hungry. Ordered a hamburger and bbq sandwich both with onion rings. After waiting a long time, which has never happened, our food finally arrived. The burger was busted. Overcooked to the point that the meat was disintegrating and lukewarm at best. The first ring had a little heat but the rest, for both of us was, about room temp. And the the q. Squishy with a totally weird taste. We were in the restaurant for over an hour. How can that be? Our server after finishing came and ask us about the meal. We told her we were completely dissatisfied. Her response we could have fixed it. And, where were you? And they took our money. Flat out it sucked. New cook? Ain't going back. read more

One word - fantastic! So glad we stopped in. Food was terrific - we got a pulled pork and a burger. Be sure to bring cash because they don't take credit card! read more

Amazing! My first meat and three in 13 years! Exceeded my expectations! Loved my hoe cakes, hamburger steak with grilled onions & mashed potatoes w/gravy! Got my fill of sweet tea too! Fresh with lots of flavor! Wish I could have gone back a second time! If you're near this part of town & want Home cooking- I highly recommend! read more

10 out of 5 stars! I always get their Cheeseburger and mac-n-cheese! Its almost like your grandmother from the south cooking!

One of the best BBQ restaurants in Tenn! Do not judge a book by its cover, nor a restaurant by its location. Top Hog is situated in the worst neighborhood in Gallatin, but do not let that stop you! All of the meats are smoked on site in the smokehouse out back, the catfish is battered and fried to perfection, and the dessert selection (cobblers, pies, puddings, etc) are made fresh daily. Get there early before they run out! This family run restaurant has great food in large portions, exceptionally friendly service and very reasonable prices. They have indoor/outdoor seating, and a small counter area. They are always crowded at mealtimes, so get there early! I will continue to eat there regularly, and recommend this place to anyone who comes to Gallatin. read more

This place is close to my house and it's packed every time I pass by. It's no wonder because they have great food, fair prices, and good service. They serve your drink in a big mason jar too. I've never once needed a refill. read more

Very good food. It's worth the wait to get a table. All staff are friendly and very respectful.

We had catfish and a hamburger. All very very good and tasty. The place was already packed out by early Saturday afternoon. Seemed a bit chaotic to me, but everyone was friendly and service was great. We're already planning on when we'll be able to go back. read more

Not the best , corn bread was definitely unappetizing... same with the rest of the food . Won't be coming back.

We ate here for the first time last Saturday. I had the pulled pork, onion rings, potato salad and hoe cakes. The meat was good with a nice smokiness, but it was pretty standard. I did not care for the sauce on the table -- too ketchup-y (but it wasn't ketchup). When I was almost finished eating, I saw a waitress bring another table some different sauces, so next time I visit, I'll make sure to ask for other sauces. The sides were out of this world. Best onion rings ever. If it wasn't homemade, the potato salad tasted homemade, unlike every other BBQ joint I've ever been to. It was divine. The hoe cakes, too, were spectacular. I'll definitely be back! read more

When I went to eat there the line was out the door and around the porch. We decided to come back another time.

Never will disappoint. This place is super popular. The food is always good. There is a wait from time to time, but you are sure to make a friend while you wait. read more

Delish!! Corn cakes are sooo good. Best pulled pork I had in Nashville. Cooked to perfection. Onion rings and coleslaw were nice sides with the pork. Get a scoop of cherry cobbler to go....Better then the peach... Your gonna be stuffed but you'll be happy you have a snack in the fridge later in the day. read more

My daughter and I went to this litte GEM and it was great. I had the Catfish Nuggets and it was some of the best I've ever had. My daughter had a burger ( which I ate half off) and Wow. It was the best 3.99 burger ever! Looking forward to my next visit! read more

This place is great. Real BBQ, great BBQ atmosphere, kind of dark and low ceilinged, you know right away when you walk in that this is the real thing. Get the hoecakes. read more

Great food and friendly service. I've never been disappointed in the three years I've been coming here. Their sides are some of the best I've had in a restaurant because they are pretty close to tasting like homemade. My son loves the spicy turnip greens. Awesome place for casual eating. read more

This is by far the Beat BBQ I have ever had. The Burgers and Catfish are awesome too. You can't go wrong on anything you order.

Down home, cash only, family friendly, with amazing food. This feels like dropping in on a neighbor with an incredible smoker and a bottomless jug of sweet tea. read more

Excellent food. Love their cheeseburgers, catfish, bbq chicken. Staff is great. Always good service.

LOVE Top Hog! Awesome atmosphere and the food is good, whether it is catered in or you eat in. The hoe cakes are TO DIE for and the peach cobbler is delicious. Not a fan of the BBQ sauce though, it is too watery. read more

Yum yum yum. Best BBQ and burgers in town. We try to come when they're not too busy, but dang it they're always busy haha. We've always had fabulous service and enjoy eating there. read more

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. The price isn't too bad either for what you get. Hopefully they'll never be corporately owned because that will change the quality for quantity ratio I'm sure. read more

I came with my family for a very first time. Were very disappointed. The ribs aren't good at all. They were saggy and the corn bread was dry. The service was OK. I will keep looking for a very good place to eat the best ribs!!!!!! Good luck read more

Wow this was a delightful find! Great food...excellent service and wonderful prices! The downfall...the wait,parking and the small size. But...and there is a but....it is worth it!

Cash only though please. read more

Great place, like your at a family BBQ.... The food is awesome and the atmosphere laid back....

If you want watered down BBQ (pulled pork) a chaotic atmosphere, this is your place. Was not at all impressed and have no desire to go back!! For the same price, Swaney Swift will keep my business. The tea was good, the Mac and Cheese had little flavor....just not at all what the reviews show. read more

Great service, portion sizes ample and prices very reasonable. We all enjoyed everything we ordered. No complaints we will be back!! Closed on Sundays!! read more
