They consistently sell out of bagels far too early in the mornings. I’m over giving this place chances - I’ve waited for my food for 10 mins before being notified they’ve run out of bagels too many times. Will not be returning

Friendly staffs but man the portion has gone less and less tremendously over the years. As a long time Wise sons fan & customer, with the cream cheese has became less and less and less .. Im disappointed

I usually go to the one on Fillmore or Farmer’s Market —and the past year the trend seems to be giving less schmear.

I'm a NYC bagel snob so take my review in that spirit.

I got there at noon on a Thursday and all they had left were bialys. Which I guess is understandable, but still disappointing. I got the classic lox with cream cheese, capers, and red onion. It was fine. One of the better such sandwiches I've had in this city, but if you're used to NYC lox bagels you'll be disappointed.

Service was nice and apologetic about their lack...
