There are 2 ways to judge a restaurant: By its 'steak or sizzle ad this place is all steak as the sizzle is not so much. I was hankering for some BBQ but didn't want to drive to Massapequa. OK, the place has a limited menu and that's fine by me. It means they can concentrate their efforts on doing things right.Ever order nachos and you get a pile of chips covered in chili? Different here, the chili was interspersed and mixed with all the chips! Nice.I had 1/2 rack with shrimp while Julie had 1/2 rack of St Lluis ribs. All the ribs were tasty and fall off the bone--as you would expect. I recommend the mac and cheese and beans for sides, btw.It was our first time there but not our last.

Julie was wonderful! The ribs were good, the brisket was not great. Not much flavor. The sauces were good the pork and brisket nachos were good! Collards and corn bread was good. I would like more smoke flavor personally. Ribs are the most subjective. Everyone comes with there ultimate in there head. I’d go back fir the ribs and nachos!:)

Ordered "Jed's Combo Feast" as recommended by the owner for a backyard family gathering. We had a taste of everything and it was all great! Nothing was smothered in sauce and the side orders were just as tasty. It will be an annual food event for my family.

I would give it 4 or 5 stars, wife 3 or less. Owners very hands on. My ribs were fall-off the bone tasty. Brisket, while a little dry becomes better with the sauces provided. I think proper barbecue brisket is always a little dry and needs sauces. My wife felt the dryness was a negative. I tried explaining that barbecue is cooked differently than regular brisket. My Mac and cheese side was slightly better than average. Portions could be larger. Great selection of beers and ales

I love the food at Tennessee Jeds. It is a family run slow paced restaurant. I would never say anything bad about them. If you allow them the time your food will be great. It is cooked to order. Very fresh and awesome.

Awesome tasting ribs! Wish they were cooked a little more! Love them with less pink.Would recommend it to friends and family!
I don't do a lot of reviews but this time I need to speak up. On a positive note, the service was excellent. Both of the women who helped us were super sweet, attentive, and answered any questions. That's about where the positives end. The big thing for me besides food is bathrooms and they were pretty grungy. The place looked like it had seen better days. Definitely clean so no complaint there but just looked very rundown. Now, the food... all 5 of us had a mix of stuff and were left disappointed. The tater tot appetizer was yummy, the cornbread, and the chips that came with my meal but that's where it stopped. The brisket was super thin like cold cuts and definitely not hot. The ribs and chicken were good size but not much flavor. Everything was super dry without sauce or spices. Chicken and waffles had no syrup or anything so they were hard to eat. Overall the place isn't terrible but I'm hoping we caught them on a bad night because our experience didn't match the pictures or some other reviews.

I really wanted to like the place. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The brisket came out cold and sucked. The ribs were just ok at best and certainly nowhere near worth the price. Still a cool place to have a drink.

Finally ate here after driving past it for years and it is some of the best BBQ I've ever had. They make their own BBQ sauces vs. adding too much to the meats. Angus brisket was killer. South Carolina pulled pork and the ribs were delicious along with all their homemade sides. Our waitress/owner Julie was super friendly and made our first time there one to remember. Can't wait to go back!
