Call Your Mother Deli - West End

I’m not exaggerating when I say I had tears in my eyes. The lunch I just had here is one of the best meals I’ve had in my life.

The cheesy yuca bun (gluten-free and greasy in the best way) is rich and nutty and incredibly satisfying — I got it with vegan sausage, jalapeños, red onion, cheddar, and pesto. My friend, who’s recovering from surgery at the moment, said, “I feel like this is the first time my brain has had dopamine in it in weeks.”

I have celiac, so when I was a kid my friend’s mom would make me a small batch of gluten-free latkes on Hanukkah to go along with the flour ones. I love that woman, but I have to admit, the latkes I had here are even better. Incredibly creamy, perfectly crispy. My friend and I just kept shaking our heads and smiling.

The staff were really friendly, and the patio was lovely and spacious and beautifully painted. This was one of those meals that brings color back to world, and I think I’ll remember it for a long time to come.

This place is great for breakfast and bagels. Great service and great atmosphere. The bagels are really good. But you have to plan a little more time because the queues are often long.

We used our scooters to drive to the branch in Georgetown. Ordered a Vegan impossible with no cheese or anything not vegan. We then walked to the University to enjoy it to find it covered in cheese. At least $25 down with price of scootering there!! And still no lunch. Walked back and they were closed! Would like a refund please. This isn’t just an ingredient issue it’s an allergy issue

Some of the best bagel sandwiches I’ve ever had. Pastrami sun city rocks my socks. Go immediately, if not sooner!!!

As a New Yorker, I was not at all impressed by the bagel sandwich. Watched them get several orders wrong in the 20 minutes I had to wait for a completely subpar sandwich

The cold brew is strong and smooth, the cream cheese plentiful, the maple salt and pepper bagel delish (if a bit sticky as it seems the bagel is dipped in maple syrup.) Comfy outdoor seating and plenty of indoor seating in the hotel lobby.
