Excellent bagel place, the line of people attests to that. Large menu, hot and made to order. Some wait to be expected, but reasonable with how much business they do.
Major inconsistencies for the last couple years. I used to show up at their “opening” time according to their website to find they didn’t even have the lights on inside. Certain menu items such as the tacos can only be ordered when the chef decides he’s willing to make them. I have been told multiple times they aren’t making them yet at 12:30pm when they closed at 2pm. I have also ordered them at 11am and had no issues. Their jalapeño cheddar cream cheese is incredibly bitter, not in a sharp cheddar kinda way. My regular order consistently is missing items, in particular the pepper jack cheese that I pay extra for and almost never receive. Overall the food is good but the inconsistency ruins most trips here. You can tell the staff are overworked and don’t care about basic aspects of their job. I have ordered dozens of bagels there and am constantly missing one or two from there dozen (which is 14 bagels). This would be an amazing place if they had enough employees that aren’t burnt out from being overworked due to clearly not having enough staff.
This is the best deli/ bakery I’ve ever had. My family is from NY, as well as my partner and we now live in Florida. Came down to visit family and we will be stopping in every time we visit. 10 out of 10 experience.
I’ve been coming here since I was a kid and they have consistently had the best bagels; however, I placed an order (4 days in advance) for 5 dozen bagels sliced. I got there this morning to pick them up and they did not have them ready and started throwing bagels in the bags unsliced. I only ordered them in advance because I asked the week prior if I should and they said “yeah, it would be nice to give us some notice.” I paid for these in advance and was told the amount of cream cheese and butter to buy yet they still, as I picked up the bagels told me what I got was not enough.
Not sure if it’s new management or not, but there has been a noticeable decline in customer service, etc. in the last few months.
