The details
During the Aug. 19 joint meeting with city council and the planning and zoning committee, a request for a restaurant and two single-family houses was approved. According to the presentation, the B-K Sizzle will offer a menu similar to Burger King, but will have ordering kiosks and a revamped dining experience inside.
The initial project received comments about building a commercial building being too close to Wall Street, according to previous reporting.
The revamped plan includes a 2,978-square-foot restaurant with a drive-through and rezoning the southern portion of the lot from highway commercial district to single-family district. The restaurant will be between Chicken Express and German Car Care.
The two residential lots will be 7,500 square feet and there will be a 146-foot buffer using a wooden fence between the backyards and the restaurant. The developer did not have a construction timeline for the start on either projects.
The background
Dosanni Paradise Investments, based in Grapevine, had its initial plans at 834 E. Northwest Highway denied in April. According to previous reporting, the denial by both city council and the planning and zoning commission was for a restaurant and office building.
Al Dossani, with Dossani Paradise Investments, said his company operates more than 30 Burger Kings or B-K Sizzle in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The first DFW B-K Sizzle concept opened in McKinney in 2024, according to the company website.
The Sizzle design is part of a $400 million investment that offers ordering kiosks.
Dossani also operates a Subway in Texarkana and numerous Taco Bells in Texas and Oklahoma, according to the website.
