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.

Service was great despite the kitchen manager having to leave unexpectedly. Flavor was great, but ribs weren't fall off the bone tender.

It's a counter service joint; you walk up, order, and then someone runs the food to your table. First off, they asked for a point of service tip; that bugs me when I'm ordering my own food at the counter and fetching my own drinks. The menu is fairly standard for a southern BBA joint; brisket, pulled pork, ribs, turkey, chicken. I am generally suspicious of any place that offers chopped brisket. Brisket is meant to be sliced and enjoyed as a slab of meat, not as a pile of hash. So, the chopped brisket sandwich was out for me. I asked if the brisket platter would be served as slices, and they assured me it was, so I ordered brisket with two sides. They recommended the beans and the Mac 'n cheese, so that's what I went with. They also asked me if I wanted the meat lean, marbled, or half and half; I took that as a good sign, and asked for marbled. They food came out in about 5 mins; just enough time for me to head to the soda fountain and fill my own cup. Maybe they should tip me? On the plus side, the portions were pretty large. I'm guessing that the served at least 6-8 ounces of brisket, and the individual sides were pretty large as well. On the other hand, whoever sliced the brisket simply didn't know what they were doing. They sliced it WITH the grain, producing slices full of stringy meat. Stringy meat that was hard to cut with the plastic cutlery provided. I find it hard to believe that anyone who regularly serves BBQ brisket doesn't know to cut the meat against the grain. The meat appeared to feature a nice bark; however, on further exploration, a) the bark was so tough that it couldn't be cut as all with the plastic cutlery, and b) when I tore into it with my fingers and ate a piece, it had no taste. Not even a basic Texas salt and pepper rub could be detected. A large portion of tasteless, poorly cut meat does no one any favors. The beans were a little underdone; IMHO, that's far better than mushy, overcooked beans. However, they, too, had no flavor. No spice, nada. The mac and cheese was shells in a white cheese sauce. Strike 3; zero flavor for the sauce. I don't know how you can make cheese sauce without flavor, but they managed to do so. I have never, ever thrown as much food away at a a BBQ joint than I did today. What a shame. Not recommended, not even a little bit. Try Martin's or Edley's; if you prefer a chain, Mission BBQ will do you much better than Hogwood.

Parking was super easy, and the woman at the counter was friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were clean, and the restaurant itself is spacious with plenty of tables and room to spread out, which is always appreciated when dining with little kids. My kids played outside while we waited for our food, but the food came out quickly. The kids' meals are some of the best values in town. One tip: the bun on the kids' cheeseburger is huge compared to the patty. I asked if they could add an extra patty, and they did for just $1. After removing some of the bun, it made for a much better burger and still kept the meal incredibly affordable. The spicy chicken tacos are also some of the best tacos in town. Our family of five ate for about $50. We usually buy Edley's gift cards at Costco, so our actual cost was closer to $40. It's refreshing to have a restaurant in Nashville that truly welcomes families while still serving great food. Highly recommend for anyone dining with kids.

Our group decided to sit in the common area so everyone could grab food from different restaurants. After ordering, I told them where I'd be sitting, and they gave me a table number so they could bring the food right out. Easy and convenient! I ordered the Tri-Star platter, which came with pulled pork, brisket, and pulled chicken. All three meats were tender and flavorful. Don't be shy with the BBQ sauce, it really takes everything to the next level. The platter comes with two sides. I chose one vegetable, baked beans, and one fruit, banana pudding. For those not from the South, macaroni and cheese is considered a vegetable, and banana pudding is absolutely a fruit. That's just science around here! The meal also included cornbread and slaw, making for a hearty plate of food. Everything was very good, portions were generous, and the service was excellent. Overall, a great BBQ experience with tasty food, friendly service, and plenty of seating options. I'd definitely come back hungry!

When I arrived, there were a few people ahead of me looking over the menu and placing their orders. After taking a look myself, I decided to try the chicken sandwich with a side salad. I also asked for the white BBQ sauce on the side since I had never tried it before and wasn't sure if I would like it. After placing my order and paying, I headed into the restaurant, found a table, set down my number, and waited for the food to be delivered. A few minutes later, my food arrived, and it looked really good. The chicken sandwich was massive, and the side salad was a generous size as well. I tried the white BBQ sauce first and was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't overly tangy or sweet. I also noticed a bottle of BBQ sauce on another table and wanted to give that a try, so I added a little to my sandwich. I'm not sure what variety it was, or if they offer multiple sauce options, but I actually preferred it to the white sauce. Eventually, I mixed the two together, and that combination ended up being just right for me. The sandwich was so large that I only finished about half of it. When I was ready for a to-go box, it took a little while to find someone to ask since there weren't many employees walking around the dining area. Once I tracked someone down, I packed up my leftovers and headed out. Overall, the chicken was good, and I enjoyed both sauces. That said, I've had BBQ at other places that I enjoyed more, and I'm not sure Edley's is somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit again. Still, it was a solid meal while spending the day at The Factory.
