I was excited to try this, but overall I'd say it's going to be a hard pass from here on out. Got a sandwich to go, and by the time I was able to eat it, had turned into a soggy mess. Maybe because the bagels are steamed? I am not sure, it was like eating dough.

Bagels were decent but that mf with the beard working the front counter need to fix his attitude.

Steamed bagels are a new favorite! The Italian job is absolutely delicious, hands down my favorite❤️However, the customer service SUCKS. Everyone acts annoyed that they have to take your order and any questions are met with semi-snappy as-few-words-as-possible responses and blank stares?

W O W. I am currently writing this review between giant bites of this bagel and I am thrilled. I ordered the 5 mile w/ a lotus drink on the side and not only is the food phenomenal, the service was truly top tier. I think I only waited about 10 minutes for my food (totally reasonable) but the owner was so attentive and made sure I didn’t think they had forgotten about me. Thank god I work across the street because I will coming back as much as possible.

We ordered it for delivery, and Holy cow was this delicious. The bagels are not toasted, they are steamed, but you don't miss the crunch of a toast. Great quality

Nice place, owner was nice. This style bagel was new for me. Kind of soft doughy like, not really toasted but more steamed. It was really good though, I got the breakfast sandwich bagel with bacon.

First time ordering. Never had a steamed bagel. Delightfully different. Locally owned is a big plus. DagScore is 4 stars instead of 5 only because the sandwiches were underseasoned and a bit bland. Will definitely return.

Stop by here for breakfast often; appreciate the fresh food and #3 is my favorite along with a drip coffee that is quality, hot, and tasty. Cozy downtown location. A+++++

These people are jerks. Not only do they ignore you when you arrive, they treat people like we are all arrogant like they are. For example if I need service, I’m “being pretentious” like no I’m just a

This bagel deserves 5 stars. Holy cow that was delicious. I just tried their Lox sandwich on an everything bagel without onion and added tomatoes and sprouts. Absolutely phenomenal! And their cookies are yummy as well.

Great place to eat a breakfast sandwich. The Lux on a Asiago bagel & the McCoy sandwiches are amazing. The Bagels were a cross between a torta y un bagel (Tejano for "& a bagel"). The two coffees, hazelnut & vanilla had a smooth taste. Ejoyed the food & very much appreciated those whom made for us. Will definitely bring the family. Didn't post photos because we ate it all after the first bite.
