In Short – A franchise of the famous Corky's in Memphis, this barn-style barbecue joint attempts to bring a little piece of Beale Street to Brentwood. The cool, dark interior doesn't sport a bar, but booths are usually filled with folks nursing beers and listening to piped-in blues. Families congregate at larger tables to enjoy dinners with all the trimmings. The menu offers barbecue in its many forms, from pulled pork to shrimp on a stick.

Don't get it to go

by scarlettshafer

Good barbeque, in general. But don't get it to go. I got a side of fried ocra. They packaged it in a plastic container sealed with a lid. Guess what I got when I got home...Mushy ocra in mushy crust. It was really disgusting. They've been around for years, so I'm really suprised that they haven't figured this problem out before. I called the store and spoke with the manager, Dale, and he said that he's never had a complaint about that before and they always package the ocra that way. Well, I'm guessing that no one else wanted to take the time to complain that their ocra was mush. But, I'm not in the business of throwing money away and when I order a side, I expect to get what I paid for.

Not impressed

by gdf1226

BBQ sandwich and fries for like $9, not worth the price. Terrible service, the place was not very busy and still had a bad waitress. Wouldn't go back.

decent food at decent prices

by mabstb

we've struggled to find "the best bbq" in nashville for some time. im not sure corky's is it. but they are consistent, the food's not bad, and is reasonably priced. their ribs are quite good, pork is tasty, their "homemade" sauces range from sweet to damn-hot and they have a great beer special which is too cheap to turn down. kids menu is plentiful (includes ribs!) and the atmosphere, while somewhat unoriginal chain restaurant-y looking, is family friendly. we'll go back when wondering where to eat ribs, until we find some place better...

  • Pros: family friendly, reasonable prices, consistent food quality
  • Cons: uninspired, busy and loud at times
