Came on Wednesday. Ordered the special which was ribs and two sides and a drink for just 8.95. I’ve never seen ribs this large! And they were absolutely amazing. A bit fatty and greasy, but flavor like I have never tasted before. I can conclusively say they are the best ribs I’ve ever eaten. I would rate Edith Ann’s five stars, but the sides were just average. Great little place with some amazing barbecue. I hear the breakfast is to die for

I have never been here for lunch but I have eaten breakfast here multiple times. The omelets are very good and the biscuits and gravy are pretty good as well. Huntsville doesn’t have a wide of variety of breakfast places to go but Edith Ann’s is totally worth it. Spare yourself from Cracker Barrel and give Edith’s a try!

I was initially disappointed. When I arrived all the tables were taken so I sat on a waiting seat for approximately 20 minutes. There is no hostess seating. A group arrived after me and when another table began to leave they migrated toward it. I stood up and let them know I had arrived prior to them and seated myself at the table as soon as the previous party left. The waitress then asked me, without a please or smile, to leave the table until it had been cleared, so I stood nearby to protect my hard earned claim. I wasn’t sure at what point«cleared» had been established and the waitress wasn’t giving me any indication that my seat was prepared, so I finally asked and she gave me a nod to sit. After about 5 minutes I was offered coffee and a menu. My friend was running late and arrived shortly thereafter. My experience turned around completely at this point. Maybe the waitress really liked my friend. She became friendly, the food and coffee refills were prompt, and breakfast was ample and delicious. I had the southwestern omelette which was nicely spiced, though a tad greasy for my taste. Anyway, 3 stars overall.

I love coming here. We get to see the same people there waiting tables and cooking. It is fun to watch them cook your food while you wait. Always, Always friendly! I recommend the brisket or roast beef omelet anytime you can get it! Excellent value!

Love this place. A little on the pricey side but the food is absolutely delicious. Love the atmosphere and the staff is great. Sometimes there’s a wait but it moves pretty quickly. The best are the blueberry pancakes or the sausage biscuits and gravy. Everything there is good. Wish they were open all day!

Loved this place growing up(it’s right outside my parents’ neighborhood), because it was a great place to get a southern breakfast for cheap. Since their revamp, the food has gone down slightly in quality and their menu is much more limited. It’s certainly a busy place to be on Saturday mornings, but it’s definitely worth the fight for a table.

Best omeletes in Huntsville! My boyfriend and I drive 20 miles nearly every Sunday, before the church crowd, to get one of their truly special omeletes. The southwestern with cherizo is by far our favorite. The staff is super friendly and it’s reasonably priced.

Contrary to the negative reviews, my experience was positive. We were warmly greeted when we walked in. Angela promptly took our drink orders. I ordered a cheese and mushroom omelet with grits and a biscuit. Mom ordered country ham with a biscuit, red eye gravy and scrambled eggs. My omelet was huge, but it was delicious. The biscuit was perfect and the grits were very good. Of course, Mom loved her meal, but she could only eat part of it. The employees at this restaurant do not sit on their ass, even when the restaurant isn’t busy. They constantly clean and stay busy. Angela was awesome. When she saw the ring on my finger, she pointed to it and said«Whats that?!!» My ring serves a purpose, but I’m not going to explain it here. When I told her that my boyfriend made it for me(it’s a complicated ring), she said«That’s the sweetest crap I’ve ever heard.» She was funny and so sweet. She kept filling up Mom’s Coke. Mom is a Coke addict. When I got up to pay the bill, she gave mom a to go Coke. Angela is on the ball. She never misses anything.

Just tired them for the first time. We were pleasantly surprised with the food. Lots of food for a great price! Real potato hash browns, HUGE pancakes, and frozen biscuits. Yup that’s right frozen biscuits. The reason why they didn’t get 4 stars is due to the cooling system which there was none on a hot summer day. Décor needed a big lift. Service was a little slow in beginning we sat for about 7 mins before we got a menu and our drink orders. And those frozen biscuits smh. They might as well not have biscuits on the menu.

Ok, I don’t usually write reviews unless its to complain about something, but here’s the deal. I definitely went in with an open mind, not expecting anything special, but For the price and location, this place is really good. They were really friendly, the food was quick and cooked exactly the way I ordered it, and the price was not over board. Another plus, and I’m not sure of many people will understand this, but they actually had Cholula hot sauce. I’m am from out of town and I will definitely eat here again of I came back to Huntsville.

I love this place. I was afraid to eat there at first because it looked kinda dumpy but once you get inside it’s a cute little diner. It’s like a nicer version of a waffle house with great food. Service is always good. Food comes quickly. My favorite is the bacon, mushroom, omlette. Their blueberry pancakes are really good and huge! Great breakfast spot!

Family for breakfast before everyone headed home, eight of us in total. The service was excellent, however the food was disappointing. I had a veggie omelet, which was very large and tasty — a canned/frozen biscuit which was tasteless and butter stuff with no flavor. The hash browns were definitely not brown and had no floor. Others had various dishes most were very marginal. Very hard to see why this restaurant was voted«best breakfast in Huntsville». This was our second visit in the last 4 years and very possible our last.

No idea how this was voted Best Breakfast. It is basically a Waffle House with NO A/C! Food is Waffle House food, service is Waffle House service with the added bonus of getting to watch the cooks drip sweat all over everything. I had the steak and cheddar omelet; the toast was the best part. My better half had the biscuits and gravy and it was mediocre – could have made it at home for half the price. Our bill was higher than any bill I’ve ever seen at WH, too. We smelled like greasy sweat for HOURS afterward and had to go home and shower and wash our clothes. My shoes still smell like a construction worker.

My wife and I went for breakfast to see what the Best Breakfast in Huntsville was like. Overall, I’d say good but not great. Spinach-bacon omlette was good, and the grits were very good, but my biscuit was barely warm and I wasn’t a fan of the hollandaise sauce(which I asked for on the side to be safe!). My wife had the breakfast burrito, which was big and fairly tasty, but the hash browns were fairly uninspiring. Service was attentive but not stifling, which is about how I like it. The décor was more of an attempt than a success, but didn’t take away from the atmosphere. I’d add a half-star for the price — the food was good and cheap, and I’d rather give my money to local businesses than big chains. We live across town, and probably wouldn’t make a special trip just to eat here. Not a bad place to stop if you’re in the area, though.

I laughed at the comments of «Alex S.». It is similar to Waffle House in building layout, with an attempt at a country style/antique décor. Seemed a little eclectic to me personally. Also, there were adds for local businesses all over the place… on the menu and the coffee mugs. It really detracted from the overall atmosphere. I had the breakfast burrito upon recommendation of the waitress. Seemed fresh and hot upon arrival with a nice mexican flare of of spices in the sausage. However, they biscuits were a little firmer than something that I would expect to have been made fresh that day. Same with the grits. I share some of the same concerns with others that some of the food isn’t really prepared fresh daily. My brother at the ribeye(I think) with red eye gravy. He swears by the gravy. Of course, the real test of a breakfast place in my opinion are the waffles and pancakes, which I did not have time for on this visit. I’m giving 3 stars for the benefit of the doubt until I have time to return for the real test. Either way, I honestly think so far that Cracker Barrel has a better breakfast than Edith Ann’s.

Similar layout to a Waffle House, but much cleaner and you don’t leave with excruciating stomach pains. Biscuits are very tasty. Eggs Benedict made perfectly. Service was very friendly. Everything you want in a breakfast.

The corned beef hash has a kick to it! Eggs and hash browns were good too. The hash browns were cooked in a patty ring mold old school style. You can get them like that still at Waffle House, but you have to order them that way. Edith Ann’s just knows that’s the best way. I think the owner came to our table to ask us if everything was ok — nice personal touch there. I have to ask though, what’s up with all of those monkeys?

Came to Edith Ann’s because we saw that it had been voted best breakfast in Huntsville. Service was good, but the food was just okay. Had the breakfast burrito with chorizo which was decent, but the salsa it came with was straight from a jar. Hashbrowns looked and tasted like they were from a frozen product, not terrible, but nothing great. Tasted the wife’s corn beef hash, and it didn’t taste necessarily homemade either. Biscuit was good and appeared to be made in house. Place was decorated funky, which was cool and there were monkeys hanging on every light fixture in a bunch of different colors. Not sure what that was about, but it was different. Friendly folks. I’m going to come back to try the lunch.
