Breakfast Brothers
Black-Owned Breakfast Spot Setting the Standard in DFW
This is a review I’ve been buzzing to write. I was invited to brunch at Breakfast Brothers last weekend by a friend (shoutout to her—she’s a real one), and I’m so glad I said yes.
The vibe? Lively but laid-back, with classic R&B throwbacks setting the mood. I loved how the space was decorated—walls filled with pictures of influential Black figures and Black art, giving it a warm, welcoming energy.
Now, let’s talk about the crowd—packed to the brim. My party and I waited about 30 minutes for a table, but honestly, we didn’t mind at all. A line out the door for Saturday brunch is always a sign that the locals keep coming back, and now I know why. Service was also decent and friendly, considering how busy it was.
Here’s What I Ate:
Fried Catfish with Red Velvet Waffles– The red velvet waffles were the star of the show. Not too chocolatey, not too sweet—the perfect balance. The catfish was also fried to crispy perfection with a well-seasoned crust. 10/10.
Grits – Listen, I don’t even like grits. But these were the best I’ve ever tried. Smooth, flavorful, and clearly cooked in a homemade stock. 10/10.
French Toast- No complaints. Rich, fluffy, and a perfect match for their maple syrup. Another 10/10.
Final Thoughts:
This true, classic Southern breakfast was flawlessly executed. You’ll catch me here again to eat my way through the rest of the menu. Expect a wait on the weekends but trust me—it’s worth every second. These brothers know how to cook.
