It doesn't seem possible but there's more breakfast coming to Dallas-Fort Worth. Specifically, to Fort Worth with the opening of Breakfast Club 51, a restaurant that recently opened at 6650 N. Beach St. #108.

The restaurant is from Habib Akbari, an experienced Canadian restaurateur who moved to North Texas in 2023 to bestow breakfast and brunch upon us.

He's actually in the process of creating a small chain. Fort Worth was his second location. He opened the first Breakfast Club 51 in Roanoke in March 2023 at 1212 N. U.S. Hwy 377, #127, and is also opening a third location in McKinney at 7560 SH-121, #100 on Februrary 1.

The restaurant's name is a nod to Akbari’s lucky number, as well as his goal to open 51 locations across Texas.

His vision is to offer breakfast with the same upscale atmosphere as some of the other chains that have opened across DFW in recent years, but at a slightly lower price point.

Prices range from $7.25 for a one-egg combination plate to $22 for steak and eggs. So, just slightly lower.

In addition to the usual omelets, crepes, and eggs benedict, Breakfast Club 51 has three house specialties:

• Hearty Breakfast Coco Frutti (poached egg, cottage cheese, fruit bowl, and biscuit or muffin)
• Popular Coco Frutti (2 eggs, choice of meat, half waffle with strawberries and bananas)
• California Coco Frutti (2 eggs, avocado, tomatoes and red onions on bread or biscuit, served with a fruit bowl).

Coco Frutti is the name of a breakfast franchise in Canada that Akbari owns.

There's also a line of $6 yogurt-and-fruit smoothies whose names pay tribute to Texas cities, such as the Roanoke with mango, raspberries, and apple juice; and the Southlake with banana, mango, raspberries, and pineapple juice.

Akbari is a former dishwasher who worked his way up the industry ladder and he’s never forgotten what it’s like to be in the kitchen.

“I grew up in a family where breakfast was very important, even more important than dinner," Akbari says. "I learned from other chains, but I saw that not a lot of breakfast places offered healthy options in an upscale atmosphere."
