A neighborhood deli born in The Nations in 2018 is adding another location to its portfolio. 51st Deli will be joining CityPark in Brentwood at 7020 Executive Center Drive later this summer. Owner Carim Yafai is targeting a mid-August opening, according to the Nashville Business Journal.
This is not the only new location in the pipeline for the brand. It also has a spot on the way to Charlotte Pike, joining its original location in The Nations and a West End location that opened in 2023. Initially, Yafai told What Now Nashville he was targeting a May opening for the Charlotte Pike location, but it has not opened yet and is listed as “coming soon” on the website.
51st Deli offers menu items such as breakfast burritos and sandwiches, bagels, burgers, tacos and signature sandwiches. It also offers a coffee menu and a juice bar.
Yafai previously shared with What Now Nashville that he is hoping to expand into multiple neighborhoods in the Nashville area and wants to see the brand expand.
“51st Deli is just doing really great in this town. Everyone loves it,” Yafai said in a previous interview. “Everyone likes our servers, the freshness we give and the speed and process of making orders. We would like to take this brand everywhere in the city if we can.”
