Edley's Bar-B-Que - Donelson

Was on vacation and stopped in here for dinner. It did NOT disappoint! I ended up with way more food than I thought. Staff was friendly and helpful. The fried pickles and jalapeño ranch were killer! I also got the hot pork tacos and they were LOADED! Definitely didn't expect them to be so full. Flavor was outstanding and the smoke on the pork was like I do back home. The grits are AMAZING! Highly recommend those as a side. Potato salad was legit also. My girlfriend got the burnt ends and they were so tender. Packed full of flavor. She loved the grits as well. Nice sports bar type, chill atmosphere.I definitely suggest checking this place out! We will stop back for sure when in the area. A+

The service by the lady working the lobby was great. She made everyone feel welcome.I was disappointed in the food.The chicken wings tasted like they were baked with no seasoning and BBQ sauce poured over top.The Mac and cheese and green beans were not good. I didn't eat them and tossed in trash.

One of the best BBQ spots in the Nashville area.Ribs and brisket are the go to. But I've heard the peach desserts are amazing.Not too fond of the Mac and cheese. Feels like it's missing something.Food does take a long time to come out but last time I went was a Friday evening.

In town on business. Had to find a good place to eat that had a good vibe. Saw Wiley's on Yelp and gave it a try. Packed house. Packed parking lot. On a Monday. Found a seat at the bar. Bartender was in the weeds. But got to me quickly. Got my Woodford. Got my order placed. Maybe 15-minutes later (and half my bourbon) I got my dinner. Soooooo happy. The grits casserole was amazing. The dry rub wings were cooked perfectly. The cornbread had a great flavor. I was really happy I landed at this place. The bartender had a good night and kept a smile on her face despite being slammed. They need more staff like her.

swung by after a long day, hadn't eaten at all and it was around 7pm. I ordered the brisket sandwich, potato salad & Mac and cheese. Food came out quick, sandwich was probably the best thing - both the sides were kind of mediocre and lacked flavor in my opinion. Service was fine and friendly. I also got two ciders & they were pretty good. Private parking lot.

So good! This place was crowded and I can see why. Their food is awesome. We came in around 5:30 on a Saturday and waited in line to place our order. We got the brisket sandwich, with grit casserole and banana pudding and the half rib platter with the Mac n cheese and fried peach pie and a 5oz pulled pork additional meat. The food came out fast. The brisket was melt in your mouth with a slightly sweet and a little spicy bbq sauce. The grits had great flavor, smooth and spicy from the Tabasco. Banana pudding was creamy and fresh with chunks of banana and vanilla wafers. The ribs were tender and delicious. The Mac and cheese was topped with bread crumbs, had good flavor a little runny but tasty. The fried peach pie was hot and greasy but in a good way. Definitely a place to try if you are in the area.

I was visiting Nashville from Louisville, and was very excited to go to Edley's. This was my first experience since the Lexington, KY location closed a few years ago. If you want table service, this is not the place for you. It's all counter and bar service, but the good news is that it's very efficient even when the restaurant is busy. It feels like a barbecue joint inside, which I enjoy.I ordered pulled pork, which came out warm-ish, but cooled off quickly. The meat was good, but the food temperature was a little disappointing. The rest of my food (Mac and cheese, grits, and baked beans) were the right temperatures and tasted excellent. Based on other orders at our table, I'd recommend their wings and the Southern salad.

First time in. Our son lives in the area. Any time I see a joint offering tips I'm in. These were nicely done. Good sized portion. My kind of place. A little divey but I like that. Chatted with the manager sitting at the bar. Real nice folks. Next time we're down for a visit we'll stop back by.

Place is good large selection of beer and drinks. I had the brisket ribs platter with coleslaw baked beans came with cornbread, which was a nice bonus baked beans. I had to add some barbecue sauce because that's the way I like it. Coleslaw is OK not a huge fan brisket was delicious. The ribs are good

Hit up Edley's Barb-B-Que on our way to do a tour of Andrew Jackson's Hermitage and had a good lunch that did the trick. I opted for a smoked turkey sandwich which hit the spot but had more roll than it did turkey. The turkey had a really nice, smoky flavor to it but the roll was so bready that it masked the tast of the turkey so I then opted to eat the sandwich without the roll to really enjoy the turkey. The slaw served with the sandwich was good and the baked beans were probably the real winner of the lunch with an exceptional flavor in each bite. Others who opted for sandwiches (one pulled pork, one pulled chicken) had the same comment about the rolls overpowering the meat and also deconstructed their sandwiches to enjoy the lunch more.Orders are placed at a register before being handed a number to place on your table so the servers could bring the food to you. All of the staff was friendly and attentive.Fountain drinks are available to serve yourself and a full bar is available for those wishing to partake.If the sandwiches featured a bit more meat and perhaps a lot less roll then this would have been a clear five-star review but sandwich just lacked something. That said, I'd be more than comfortable checking out Edley's again as the food was good, the ambiance was top-notch and the service was solid.
