met my friend for lunch and we met up at Hard 8 BBQ, located in The Colony, TX. I have only been to one before approximately 3 yrs ago located in Coppell, TX.
We were there for lunch and the parking lot was full and it was hopping mad inside the restaurant. The smell bbq filled the air.
This place is neat, very clean and well organized. The meats on the grill looked really awesome, but the taste was lacking. Same experience at the Coppell location.
The brisket was moist and juicy, the bread was dry, I did taste the chicken cause I got full. The onion rings were piping hot and very tasty well seasoned. My friend had the brisket and sausage also with onion rings and pinto beans.
I will not even go back again to any Hard 8 BBQ they have disappointed me twice already there won’t be a third.
Staff here are super friendly, very welcoming, efficient and well organized. I love my BBQ and I always brag about Texas bbq, but I can’t with Hard 8.

The best brisket place ever!! It’s flavor is amazing. I like this place more than other because the brisket is well balanced, it isn’t too full of pepper and spices that make it so heavy, but the flavor is great. All other food is amazing: sausages, turkey, pulled pork, Mac&Cheese. Great to go with your family or by your own…. my new brisket favorite place.

I love the prime rib they do on Friday / Saturday night and the cheddar jalapeño sausage is my go to!
If you’re looking for legit Texas BBQ with big pits, big flavor, and a big atmosphere, Hard Eight is always a solid choice.

We visited Hard Eight BBQ in The Colony with family just before their return flight, and it was absolutely worth the stop. The whole experience feels authentically Texas from the moment you walk in — the open pit, the aroma of slow-smoked meats, and the lively atmosphere set the tone perfectly.
The meat selection was fantastic and truly lived up to the hype. Tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection — exactly what you want from a classic Texas BBQ experience. The sides and sauces paired great with everything, and the team was warm, friendly, and patient, even with the crowd.
For anyone visiting Texas, this is one of those must-try spots that really captures the spirit of the state. A great meal and a memorable experience before sending family off on their journey. Highly recommended!

They’ve been here since 2016 and have lots of happy customers. I had the ham stuffed potato and sweet jalapeño corn. Both were excellent. Very attentive staff making sure all is well with your food. Plenty of seating. Casual bbq atmosphere and laid back feeling. I’ll be back!

Best BBQ in Dallas, no competition!!!! This is by far the best BBQ food I’ve ever had. Everything from the brisket, sausage, beans, fries, coleslaw….everything was extremely delicious. This is the perfect place to bring out of town guests who want authentic bar b q food. It was so good I barely had enough time to snap a picture. Sooooooooo delicious! We also had leftovers for a couple of days

My first visit to this place. Gotta admit it’s a cool concept when ordering but smelling like smoke all day was not my favorite thing. Food was pretty good. Didn’t feel like the brisket had a ton of flavor but the sauce was delicious. Sausage was better than average and the turkey was great. I know prices are up so it felt a little expensive but not overwhelming high for the meal. We had brisket, sausage, turkey and a few sides. Portion of side for cost felt high as well. My wife enjoyed her baked potato. Would recommend and will visit a location again to try other things.

I normally eat at the restaurant in Coppell. But I was on that side of town and my wife suggested we go. The ribs and chicken poppers were very dry. We also bought brisket, sausage and chicken. The brisket and potato was ok. I spent $118, I will stick with the Coppell location. So much for leftovers. Disappointed customer. The beans didn’t have the same flavor as Coppell.

You will HURT yourself at this delicious restaurant! Pace, pace, pace yourself. Beyond the meat, the sides options are endless and tasty. Pro tip: order meat in 1/4lb weights to make room for sides! The restaurant was huge but filled up fast on a Tuesday at 6pm Must stop! Plus, they have a full bar and Happy Hour!

Walking in felt like a full experience—the open air filled with BBQ smoke set the tone right away. The atmosphere is authentic and welcoming, with plenty of seating inside and out. As first-timers, we appreciated how helpful everyone was and loved seeing all the fresh food options up close. Everything felt genuine, and we’ll definitely be back! Food was top-notch.
