Art Gomez TagleSeptember 2, 2016Fries were battered and unbelievably delicious. Fried ribs were worth it on $6 special. Mac n cheese - great. cornbread was jalapeño and just okay. Pretty good sweet tea as well. Check this place out!
Joseph ReedApril 17, 2013Got pork bbq plate. Hot & fresh. Cashier very pleasant. Staff checked on us multiple times. Tried all sides which have their own creative flare of yum. Chess pie delish. Cornbread is sweet. Thumbs up.
Tyler CoeJuly 7, 2015Maybe the best chicken wings I've had anywhere? Get the platter if you're hungry, all sides are good. Ask for the white bbq sauce. Also, the floor is very slippery when wet. Wi-Fi = bestbbqintown- Mark HamrickApril 21, 2014Beef brisket sandwich might have been the best I've ever tasted. And I spent a lot of time in Kansas City, where BBQ is a kind of religion. Collard greens were spicy, but terrific.
Black Forest HoboJuly 10, 2018Our Nashville Trips always center around an Edley’s stop and this is a great location. The pork platter and brisket are fantastic. For a little heat, try the Edley’s Ghost Sauce. They also sell it.
Duncan HowsleyAugust 18, 2014Good barbecue, quick service, great bar! The baked beans are really tasty, and the Sweet Georgia Brown (pulled pork sandwich with fresh peach slices and BBQ sauce) is fantastic.
Cody WilliamsMay 24, 2015The pork and brisket are good, but give the turkey or chicken a try as well. Only place I've seen offer banana pudding as a side and it was some of the best I've had.
Never been disappointed at Edley’s whether it is for lunch or dinner. Having the “special” tonight: Peaches on top of the pulled pork sandwich. Awesome!
Amanda RFebruary 25, 2018Love the hot chicken platter. Every time. Make sure they give you a little portion of the ranch sauce and you’re good to go.
Eva KunzJuly 28, 2014Food is great! Get the pulled pork or brisket sandwich if you're here for lunch. Most importantly is the amazing staff though! Highlight of our Nashville trip.
First time there and we tried as much food as we could. There wasn't a single thing that wasn't short of amazing! All the food was awesome and staff was very friendly. Can't wait to go back.
Drew RichcreekMay 19, 2013Tuck Special is an enjoyable mess of a sandwich. Best brisket I've had in Nashville so far. I lived in Memphis for 10 years so I'm picky about my BBQ. Good choice for BBQ in Nashville.
First time at Edley's......SO delicious!! Friendly staff! Awesome pork sandwich (tons of meat on it) and the potato salad & mac and cheese were amazing! You get a lot for your money!
Eric VealNovember 15, 2018Really enjoyed the crispy hot fresh tasting chicken, interesting creative bean salad and sweet no mayo coleslaw.
Snag the brisket at lunch if you can. For dinner, opt for the pulled pork anything. Spicy delicious corn bread.
JenKuduApril 24, 2014I love you KERMIT!! The baked beans and froyo pie are ok. Skip the Mac and cheese. It's dry and has nutmeg in it.
The Swedish ChefSeptember 14, 2017Pork platter was great. Awesome sides. Wings were underdone. Reasonable prices. Friendly staff.
Lucas JordanMarch 30, 2018The Bushwacker is on sale Wednesdays for $5. Waited in line to order my food longer than it took to get my food. Fast and friendly. Nice ambiance.
Edley's EastApril 17, 2013Our specials rotate every day and we typically decide on them a few minutes before we open. Our chefs are very creative with their food choices and their names...hope you enjoy!
If there's a line, you can sit and order at the bar and not have to wait. Just don't blame me if you find all the fresh draft beers too tempting to resist.
CrystalDecember 29, 2014If you have a chance get the grit casserole- it's moist with just the right amount of "hot"
John MillerApril 7, 2018Great food, service and cool ambiance! The loaded fries were amazing and definitely worth trying.
Dana MarieJuly 4, 2016AH-MAZING. Food came out quick and did not disappoint. The catfish tacos were incredible and the nachos amazing.
Second time here.. Love the food,and the staff is pretty cool.. And they seem to always have some drink specials.. A must come in and dine..- Edley's EastApril 17, 2013We have the best bushwacker in town. Don't know what a bushwacker is? Just tell the bartender you wanna get bushwacked. Life changing!
Consistently delicious! Great shrimp tacos and fried catfish. Decent cornbread.
Greg ReynoldsApril 6, 2015I go to Edley's every time I'm in Nashville. This was my first time at this location and they obviously do something different because the food was not nearly as good as at the main location.
- Try the Grits casserole ! And the cornbread was awesome .
- If you don't like the green beans: you equals douche
JayJuly 19, 2013Briskett is a lunch only item & Ribs is a dinner only item. Regardless of what the menu says.
Chele RocksMay 29, 2016When ordering take-out, double check your order. They 'run out' of things then 'forget' to tell you but still charge you for it.
