A picture of the inside from us sitting at our table on the patio

I really enjoyed my brisket sausage and pimento pasta salad!! I also had green beans, but they weren't my favorite. I did try my husband's brisket sandwich a that was really good. Had a good amount of meat on it. Our daughter got the popcorn chicken and mac n cheese. She really liked both...she's kind of picky when it comes to mac n cheese lol. Service was good. You order at the counter, the give you your drinks and number, then you go find a seat and they bring your food to you. They had some yummy looking desserts. Next time I'm trying one of them. The inside is pretty modern feeling, but we sat on the patio and loved that. There were some outdoor couches and chairs to lounge and then tables and chairs to eat at. All in all I really liked this place and would totally go back.

Let me preface this review by saying I've eaten a ton of bbq all over TX, TN, and GA so my standard for great BBQ is quite high. Now that that's out the way, let me explain my rating of HoneyFire BBQ. Food Tried the brisket (point and flat slices), parmesan green beans, sweet corn pudding, white queso mac & cheese, and HoneyFire ribs. Let's start with the star of the show, the HoneyFire ribs with honey dry rub. Membrane left on had me concerned at first but the cook was so well done that the membrane was bite through leaving the rib quite moist. Really nice bark on top and the dry rub was sweet and paired well with the pork. The sweet corn pudding was one of the best sides I have ever had at a BBQ spot! Definitely a must try. The Mac & cheese had a ton of queso flavor so I can see how that can be off putting to some and also the pasta itself was a little too firm for me. Let's get to the biggest disappointments and that was the lean brisket and green beans. The brisket was missing that smoke flavor and didn't really have a strong beef flavor. Additionally, though the point was moist due to fat content it also did not have a strong beef flavor and was lacking smoke. The green beans were not flavorful and I could not taste any parmesan cheese. Service Exceptional! Though the line was long due to the opening, it didn't take too long and we were given free BBQ spicy rub and BBQ sauce. They also were handing out free samples of the burnt ends. My only suggestion would be to have more than one cashier during lunch. Ambiance It is wide open inside, great bar area with TVs and another back area where the doors can be closed if hosting a private event. I did not notice much wood smoke smell in the air so maybe that's why the brisket wasn't filled with that smoke flavor I'm used to. Would I go back? Yes, for the dry rubbed ribs and corn pudding. I also want to try the smoked wings and pulled pork one future visit.

Bar area and people in line for waiting to order

I was between a 3 and 4 stars. I am glad to have another bbq place in Brentwood. I love bbq. Came in on a Friday night around 6pm. I ordered brisket, queso Mac and cheese and the bourbon beans. There was a long line that took about 10 minutes to order at the counter. There was only one girl taking orders. She was very pleasant but I would suggest having another person taking orders to move things along. The food was as good for the most part. My brisket was very tender but greasy. The bark in the brisket had good flavor but it didn't hold up to the grease. Queso Mac n cheese had good flavor and I enjoyed the jalapeno in the beans although the beans should have been more tender. Overall the food was fine. A little pricey for the quantity and quality in my opinion The guys bring food out seemed very uninterested in their work. I think the person running the dining room was absent tonight. With the long line and the sleepy staff the place seemed to be lacking leadership. I will assume they will get this fixed once they are more established. No real ambience to discuss. Very plain inside with plenty of TVs on the walls. Nice outside seating area. Kid friendly and no loud music inside. Good. Not great. Would probably come back but not a regular spot for me.

Our food was stellar from our dip to the salads and entrees. I really loved the wedge salad so much…read more- it was such an explosion of flavors. Erik/Eric/Aric took care of us while we were here and when I tell you he was the best server I've had in such a long time -- I absolutely mean it. He was fantastic and took such great care of us!

Firebird Grill was a decent experience overall, though not necessarily somewhere I'd personally…read morereturn to given the number of dining options in Nashville. I visited with my parents during their last trip to town since the restaurant happened to be nearby. Upon walking in, the decor felt a little confusing. The menu clearly presents the restaurant as a grill, but the interior still seemed heavily influenced by what may have previously been an Asian restaurant space. The renovation didn't feel entirely cohesive, which made the atmosphere a bit disjointed. That said, the staff was very friendly, and we were seated quickly. Throughout the meal, however, there seemed to be an underlying sense of stress among the staff that was noticeable despite their efforts to remain professional and attentive. It created a slightly uncomfortable atmosphere at times. For dinner, we ordered the filet with broccoli and French fries, while another guest ordered a salad. Unfortunately, the salad had to be sent back because it arrived with blue cheese despite a requested omission due to an allergy. Thankfully, the issue was corrected. The filet itself was cooked to the requested temperature, and overall the food was fine, but nothing particularly stood out as memorable. Everything was acceptable, though not especially remarkable. Overall, Firebird Grill may work well for larger groups or families looking for a convenient, casual meal, but with so many standout restaurants in Nashville, it's probably not a place I'd personally revisit.

Find a surface lot in front of the restaurant or the lot behind the building. Both are a short walk. There are 10 minute spots if you are grabbing a to go order. The dining room offers plenty of seating with lots of natural light. There are booths for four and cozy booths for two. Getting lunch to go is so easy with Chopt. Orders can be placed on the app and grabbed from the cubbies to the left of the registers. My food has always been ready by the promised time. An employee is always behind the cubbies in case you need to talk to someone. On my last visit an employee noticed I'd have trouble grabbing my order with my toddler on my hip. She grabbed my order and brought it right around. Ordering in line feels like yelling the same thing over and over again. I wonder if marking off options on a sheet of paper would be better for everyone. It's not too bad if you're getting one item, but it's a lot if you have multiple items. The prices are reasonable for a healthier option. I find the bowls to be plenty of food. I like that bowls usually have a couple of protein sources. The bowls for kids are also a generous portion for just under $8. The food is delicious. Everything looks and tastes fresh. There are enough topping options and dressings to mix it up. The seasonal offerings have always been tasty. The Harvest Bowl is my favorite bowl. You choose your rice base and it has sweet potatoes, kale, apples, goat cheese, almonds, and dried cranberries. The white balsamic dressing is great with the other flavors. I enjoy the small piece of bread on the side. Chopt is on my list of favorites for a quick, healthy lunch. If you're a regular make sure to get the app for rewards and promos!

This review is only for takeout but it was a good experience nonetheless! Placing an order ahead…read morewas made simple by the staff who took my call and my food was ready when expected. Upon first glance, the restaurant is clean and staff immediately acknowledged me and informed me my order was on its way out. The food was packaged carefully and traveled home well. The lamb kebab plate was a delight, with moist and flavorful lamb mixed with fresh salad and smooth hummus over rice. The chicken shawarma was equally flavorful and I appreciated the green sauce to help keep the chicken moist. Will come back when craving this cuisine!

We didn't mean to come to Middle Eatz, as we had planned to go to Taj but Taj was closing early on…read moreNew Years Eve. But let me tell you, thank you Taj for closing early! I am so glad that they did, otherwise we wouldn't have experienced the deliciousness that is Middle Eatz! This place is delicious! I am so happy that we stumbled upon it. First off, there are booths on one side and then more cozy-square-ish tables on the other side, and then more seating in the middle. There are beautiful portraits of various landscapes adorning the walls. The food has great choices (even some smashburgers because the owners are from the west coast) but the Yemeni cuisine is delicious! My partner ordered the chicken mendi, which was fall off the bone tender. The chicken flavored rice was delicious. I had a chicken plate with rice, and also ordered chicken and potato samboosa. Everything was wonderful, and the portions were generous. Service was great! I can't wait to go back to this wonderful gem. I overhead one of the owners saying he and his brothers own it, and their sons work there. It is a true family business.

Food In one word, exceptional! Was invited for lunch and we…read moretried the Bimbimbap, Cheesy Skillet, Hot Chicken, and Gochujang Chicken. There were no complaints and very few leftovers. Really appreciated how the Hot Chicken was pan seared and kept more of the traditional Korean spices. We did find out that the Spicy Pork Bulgogi is not available anymore , but remains on tee menu as sold out. Service Get there early! Waited in line for a while and also not much seating inside or out. We were lucky to grab one open table outside. You grab a number after ordering and they bring the food to you. Self serve drinks. Ambiance The interior is small and it can be difficult to find close parking. If you don't mind walking from the next parking lot over, then you're good. Would I go back? Absolutely! The food is just too good.

Redemption Tour -- Mostly Successful…read more Full disclosure: I got pretty sick after eating here in 2021 -- my spouse too -- and we swore off the place. To our credit, neither of us left a nasty review at the time; it happens in the restaurant business. But five years of watching them stay busy and still standing convinced me it was probably a one-off, so I gave Soy Bistro another shot. I ordered the Hot Chicken -- pan-seared, chargrilled chicken breast with Korean spices, served with house coleslaw and rice. The restaurant was clean, the service attentive, and a genuine highlight: self-serve beverages with large cups of ice-cold water, which I really appreciated. The coleslaw was crisp with a terrific dressing, and the rice was spot on. The chicken itself was a touch dry and could have really used a dipping sauce to pull it all together. At $15.50 -- closer to $20 after tax and tip, I wasn't wowed by the value on this particular dish. The cheesy skillets were flying out of the kitchen and looked amazing, clearly the crowd favorite for a reason. Next visit I haven't found my dish yet, but I have a pretty good idea where to look.

I was a bit disappointed because even though the regular comes with 3 scoops of protein, realistically it's not that much. They use the tiniest ice cream spoons scoopers they could find. They cut the fish in big pieces so you get like 3 pieces of fish. Their spicy tuna is a salad and mixed so it's more like a puree. The rice is good. I mixed the rice with some salad greens and that adds a good balance for me. You get 5 toppings to add to your bowl then they charge extra per extra toppings. They also have dry toppings like onions and garlic and it's a good addition and flavor oils too. They also have a boba bar but we didn't try it. They have bottle drinks like coke and teas to purchase on a fridge by the register. The inside is clean and it has enough space but it's not a big place. They have tables and a couch like seating. They do not have outdoor seating. They are in a shopping center so there is plenty of parking spaces. Definitely a busy area but we came after the rush so it was easy get to and to order once there. Overall is an ok place for a lunch meal. I'm not sure if I would pay for the full price but I would get the online deal if available and I'm in the area.

All these healthy people make me embarrassed as to what I've done to my body over the past 60+ years. My daughter says that it's never too late to turn it around.
