Dallas has seen loads of action in the restaurant world, with restaurant openings, special Lent menus, and a closing or two.

Here's what's happening in Dallas dining news:

Akai is new speakeasy bar in Dallas' Arts District located inside Musume, the upscale Asian restaurant from Josh Babb and partner Sean Clavir of Rock Libations. In fact, in order to get to Akai, you walk through the kitchen at Musume. Akai is a collaboration between Rock Libations & SBBC, the team behind bars such as Truth & Alibi, The Tipsy Alchemist, and Punk Society.

Eggsquisite Café, a local breakfast-and-lunch chain with locations in McKinney and Allen, has opened its third, this one in Frisco, at Hall Office Park at 6801 Warren Pkwy. Eggsquisite serves all your breakfast faves, plus burgers, sandwiches, salads, and such.

Bubba's is the sibling of Babe's, but Bubba's has a drive-through and opens at 6:30 am.

The Flying Saucer, the local chain from Shannon Wynne dedicated to craft beer, will open a new location at Cypress Waters, the Billingsley Company’s 1,000-acre master-planned development. This will be the fifth Saucer in the DFW area. The restaurant is posting help wanted ads, but Wynne could not confirm an opening date, stating that "the notion that you look in want ads just kind of creeps me out."
