Great small business to support! Their unique spin on BBQ is a must try. This location has a few small tables for dining in, but most customers were carryout. We ordered: 1. The standard burger - this smash style burger was . The patties were flavored and prepared well! The added special sauce levels it up. (10/5 ) 2. Candied Ribs - these were seasoned well, and the preparation was . The meat was tender and easy to eat for ribs. (10/5 ) 3. Macaroni and cheese - the cheese crisp on the outside added great texture, and the flavors were delicious. (7/5 ) Try each of the homemade BBQ sauces. You won't be disappointed. We will be frequent customers as this restaurant is exceptional.

want to give a Huge shout- out to Craig and Lisa and Family at Candied Rib Company - Elevated! Me and Haley had the Chopped Beef Sandwiches with our choices in house made sauces. And let me tell you, it was a Level 20 out of 10! The service was outstanding and I highly recommend everyone trying and spreading the word about Candied Rib! We will be back sooner than later, I promise that!!

I can see why this place is rated 5 stars. My husband had some questions before we ordered and called to speak with someone. They were so nice and courteous which we appreciated. Their food was excellent. We had a rack of ribs, a burger, copped beef sandwich, pulled pork, tallow potatoes and mac and cheese. Everything was excellent. Our favorites were the shopped beef sandwich and the ribs. Tallow potatoes are not to be missed. The burger was excellent but just a little salty for us. This will be our go to take out bbq spot in town.

Food was outstanding! We tried the pulled pork and macaroni and cheese; the hamburger and potatoes. We took our food to the nearby Charlie Daniels Park to eat our lunch. It was so good we went back and ordered another burger and potatoes and the special of the day with Mac and cheese and praline white chocolate banana pudding for supper and probably lunch tomorrow! The servings are ample! Service was outstanding! Restaurant so clean and inviting! Owners were super friendly and helpful with all their options! There is a wide selection to choose from! Highly recommended and we will definitely be returning! So glad we ran across this gem!

I have now been here three times and every single time it's been a home run! It all starts with the food and it is truly out of this world!!! I had one of the best burgers of my life here just after Christmas. From a foodie perspective, it's what I would call "life changing". I got the mac and cheese mushroom swiss burger here last time (pictured) and it was SO FRICKIN' GOOD!!! The owners, Lisa and Craig, are awesome people and beyond welcoming! I cannot say enough good things about this place and it has become my favorite spot for lunch -- or food in general -- in the greater Nashville area. Do yourself a favor and stop by one day.
