“After many years and a lot of hard work by our staff and development team, it’s quite rewarding to see our vision of a town center for Brentwood coming to fruition,” said H.G. Hill Realty Company Chairman and CEO, Jimmy Granbery. “With our first phase 86 percent leased, we are pleased to bring a mix of national, regional and locally owned retail and dining options – including several that are new to the Nashville-area market – along with notable office tenants to Hill Center Brentwood.”

The first phase contains 158,000 square feet of office space and 66,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space. The first four buildings, (B, B1, C1 and C2 on site plan) are beginning to be delivered to tenants, with openings beginning in the fall.

LBMC will anchor building B, occupying nearly 80,000 square feet of the four-story, 117,000 square foot building. A fifth building (building A) will be completed by spring 2017 and will house office tenants First Tennessee Bank and TMPartners.

Features of the development include a main street that connects Chadwick Drive on the east to Eastpark Drive, a two-lane covered valet area, and a plaza with a water feature and green space. The six-level, 852-space parking garage is nearing completion and will be fully functional as retailers begin opening for business in November. Below parking under building B adds an additional 48 parking spaces and there are 145 surface parking spaces in phase 1.1.

Restaurant tenants include:

Nama Sushi Bar offers a traditional sushi menu, but is most known for creative, chef-inspired menu items and chef’s choice sushi platters/rolls. For the non-sushi customer, the menu also offers cooked Asian fusion cuisine items known as “Hot Nama.” The 11-year-old concept has two locations in Knoxville, Tenn. and one in Nashville’s Midtown, which was recently voted Nashville’s Best Sushi by Nashville Lifestyle Magazine’s 2015 Reader’s Poll. The restaurant will occupy 3,497 square feet in building B1. A December 2016 opening is anticipated.

Holler & Dash, the rapidly growing fast casual biscuit house, will open its first Tennessee location in late 2016, occupying 3,219 square feet in building B1. The restaurant concept is based on a core belief system that is expressed through an elevated Southern menu consisting of premium ingredients, an interest in the communities they serve, and an in-store experience steeped in Southern hospitality by the people that bring it all to life. With a menu brought to market and enhanced by Director of Culinary Brandon Frohne, Holler & Dash knows the biscuit is the hero but the flavor possibilities are endless. In addition to the Brentwood location, Holler & Dash biscuit houses are in Homewood and Tuscaloosa, Ala., and Celebration, Fla. (opening late 2016). “We are excited to be part of the mixed-use Hill Center Brentwood development, as this location will allow us to seamlessly mix with people’s lives—whether they are on the go or looking for a more relaxed dining experience to share with friends,” said Mike Chissler, Holler & Dash chief operating officer.

Del Frisco’s Grille is a vibrant, upscale-casual eatery serving exciting American food with a twist. The ‘anytime eats’ dining destination, offers lunch, brunch and dinner including shareable plates, two-fisted sandwiches, chef-inspired daily features, prime wet-aged steaks and fresh seafood. The Brentwood restaurant, slated to open in November 2016, will offer a modern, inviting, stylish and fun dining environment, taking the classic bar and grill to new heights, and drawing inspiration from bold flavors and market-fresh ingredients. Del Frisco’s Grille is also known for creative, hand crafted cocktails such as the signature VIP made with Clementine Vodka infused with fresh Hawaiian pineapple. The new Brentwood Del Frisco’s Grille marks the second restaurant in the Nashville area, with the first slated to open in October on the ground floor of a new mixed-use building in the Gulch area. “We’ll be opening our first Nashville Del Frisco’s Grille in the Gulch area and felt Brentwood would be a great compliment to our first location given the demographics of the area,” said Bill Martens, VP of development and construction for Del Frisco’s Restaurant Group. “Hill Center Brentwood is a perfect fit as it is a mixed-use development with appealing shops and a strong business environment. As a destination for dining, drinks and socializing, we’re confident Del Frisco’s will be a great addition to the development.” The 7,900 square foot restaurant will occupy building C1.

Uncle Julio’s is a made from scratch casual Mexican restaurant known for serving fresh, high quality margaritas, tableside guacamole, fajitas and other traditional and unique border style Mexican. “I am very excited to be opening our first Tennessee location in Brentwood.

The 8,000 square foot space is in stand-alone building C2.

Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams is set to add to its Nashville-area family of scoop shops in a new 1,506 square foot space in building A. Founded in 2002 by James Beard Award-winning cookbook author Jeni Britton Bauer, the ice cream company’s Brentwood location will open in summer 2017. Jeni’s ahead-of-the-trend vision—using whole ingredients and dairy from grass-pastured cows, rather than synthetic flavorings and commodity ice cream mix—coupled with inspired flavors, sparked the artisan ice cream movement more than a decade before it would become a top food trend. “Nashville is like home to us and we are excited to expand into Brentwood,” says Jeni. “Our Sweet Cream Biscuits & Peach Jam flavor was born here, inspired by the Loveless Cafe, and made with peaches from The Peach Truck. It’s a key part of who we are as a company.”
