Bagel Shop · Mid-City West · 50 tips and reviews
Richy Acosta: Try the Cinnamon Raisin Bagel with their Home made type Cream Cheese. You can't go wrong with that!
AskMen: The Bagel Broker serves 19 varieties of bagels. This bagel bastion is a regular celebrity stop, and has even made an appearance on Entourage. Read more.
Adam Cheung: I come from NY and this place is average. Bagels are small and the egg sandwich had no taste. Their cream cheeses are good though.

Will Moody: The ramen is excellent, and for dessert try the green tea mochi!
Leslie Monchin: Melt in yo mouth. Chicken and oysters, tsukune, pork chashu, shrimp toast were all delish. Order the ramen half-size! Black ramen ftw
drinkwel www.drinkwel.com: Happy Hour 5:30-7 Monday-Friday
Setra Music: Avoid Tusquella's Fish & Oyster Bar. Everything is over cooked and greasy. The cucumber salad was more like cucumber soup.
Alex Sobo: Pampas grill for pao de queijo and churrasco, loteria for chicken nachos, French Crepe company for nutella crepes, Singapore Banana leaf for roti and peanut curry yum! Ahhh the list goes on!
The Most Interesting Man in the World: I prefer picking an exotic piece of fruit myself, however dangerous the circumstances, but the quality and selection of tastes here might be worth risking your life for as well, should it be crowded.
Brandy Snowden: Patio tables and service is always great. King's ring was delicious, along with the chef's choice platter, protein roll, oyster shooter and much more. Everything is great, the 4xs I've gone.
Jamie J: Happy hour $3 rolls, 4-6 and 9-10pm, great service
Roger Dexter: The music they play is often pretty offensive. Don't bring the children. The food is awesome
