Oklahoma City prime steakhouse to open in new Deco 969 Fort Worth apartment tower

Oklahoma City-based Broadway 10 Bar & Chophouse will open in a new luxury downtown apartment tower, joining three current prime steakhouses within two blocks near the Fort Worth Convention Center.

“B10,” with one location under repair in Oklahoma City and another under construction in Denver’s Cherry Creek area, serves hardwood-grilled steaks and seafood along with sushi.

The Fort Worth location will fill 8,500 square feet as the anchor of Deco, a 27-story tower at 969 Commerce St. two blocks from Central Station and near the new Texas A&M Fort Worth campus.

The steakhouse will serve lunch, brunch and dinner, according to an announcement from Provision Concepts, operator of eight Oklahoma restaurant brands.

Corporate chef Edd West knows a little about Fort Worth from his past 24 years with the parent company of Charleston’s, an Oklahoma-based chain with a popular South Hulen Street steakhouse.

Broadway 10 will serve prime, dry-aged steaks from both the broiler and hardwood grill, he said.

“We’re a place where you can have a decent chophouse burger in the morning and then come back later for a wine dinner,” he said.

Above Broadway 10, Deco will have 302 apartments and penthouses. It’s a big change from Broadway 10’s start in a historic Oklahoma City Buick dealership, currently under repair after a fire.

Of the nearby steakhouses on Fort Worth”s “beef block,” Florida-based Capital Grille, 800 Main St., is the busiest and serves both lunch and dinner weekdays. But Broadway 10 would be the first to serve all day, every day.

Ruth’s Chris Steak House, 813 Main St. is owned by the same company as Capital Grille. Del Frisco’s Double Eagle, 812 Main St., is now owned by Houston-based Landry’s. Both serve only dinner, except on holidays.

Also nearby is locally owned Grace, 777 Main St., a prime steakhouse, along with the il Modo Italian restaurant in the Kimpton Harper, a San Francisco-based chain.
