Staff all don white coats while serving delicious deli favorites. A New York staple that keeps it as real as it gets. Fresh fish and deli meats served at a cash only establishment. It gives that NYC nostalgic feel fans crave when trekking from borough to borough. The bagel with lox is outstanding and the staff will refill your coffee as frequently as the 1 Train passes through the city. Limited hours at this landmark so wake up early and enjoy some authentic breakfast in the city that never sleeps.
Friendly and easy going breakfast place with great taste. The service is very friendly, super fast, and very attentive. They ask for coffee refills every 5 mins. Latkes are super tasty. Also a great choice for kids. No wonder why they are popular. We got the famous sturgeon and salmon platter. They were very good. There is plenty of space to sit but a line builds up pretty early in the morning. It is cash only but there is an ATM in CVS across the road or there is a BofA branch 1 block away.
A must visit for New York style bagels! 🥯 Famous for their bagels and for their salmon. I really enjoyed the atmosphere here! Very busy place but feels like more of a local place than a tourist spot! My favorite was the salmon lox bagel 🥯 with tomato 🍅 and capers!! Can be a wait during peak times of day so be prepared to wait.
The restaurant came recommended by a native New Yorker. There was a long line when we arrived and we got a seat after about 40 minutes. The restaurant was jam packed and very lively. We ordered the matzo ball soup, latkes, blintzes, and a plate of eggs, salmon and sturgeon. The matzo ball soup was peppery and could have had more flavour. The matzo ball was good. The latkes were plump but lacked potato taste. We were used to the crispy, thinner latkes. The scrambled eggs, lox and sturgeon that came with a bagel were quite delicious. We found out at the end of the meal that the restaurant only accepts cash. Luckily, we had sufficient cash on us. It is not a cheap meal.
I love this place! Worth the wait (never as long as you think). Such a classic UWS vibe. Be sure to get something with sturgeon - my fave is the open faced sturgeon sandwich on a Bialy with scallion cream cheese and sliced onion and tomato.
