The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, and the inside is extremely charming with limited seating in a very comfortable setting The bagels are incredible and we opted for a couple of bagel sandwiches with scrambled egg cheese and sausage on an onion bagel toasted and it was incredible, sorry I forgot to take a picture, but it was gone before I thought to take a picture. Indeed, this is a must stop if you're in the DC area near the convention center !

I visited Pearl's Bagels for lunch for the first time and tried the Green Monster bagel sandwich…read more Overall, I'd give it a 6 out of 10. The bagel itself was really good. You could taste that the dough was made with quality ingredients, and the bagel had a great texture and flavor. The interior was also nicely decorated--bright, airy, and inviting. It's a smaller space, but there's enough room to enjoy your meal. The cashier was extremely friendly, which made for a great first impression. The one thing that caught me off guard was the way the sandwich was toasted. I was asked if I wanted the sandwich toasted, and I said yes, assuming the entire sandwich would be heated. However, only the bagel was toasted--the meat and cheese were left cold. I thought that was a little odd because I was expecting a hot, toasted sandwich rather than cold cuts on a toasted bagel. That said, the sandwich was still good. On my next visit, I'm going to ask if they can toast the meat and cheese along with the bagel and then add the dressings afterward. I have a feeling that would make a big difference and could take this sandwich from a 6 to a 10 out of 10 for me. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and trying it that way. For a first visit, Pearl's Bagels made a good impression, and I'm curious to see how the sandwich tastes when it's prepared the way I had originally expected.

They definitely are a well oiled machine, but my order was 15 min late.

This is just stellar customer service and they've completely won my business over for this alone. The Jetski was delicious, full of yummy meats over melted cheese and avocado. The ambiance is pretty cool and I totally would've hung out if it wasn't so busy!

Jetski - Brisket+Pastrami+sofrito, American and cheddar cheeses, jalapeno, melted on Cheddar Bagel. Well folks, I had the Jetski and it had a nice level of spice, it approached being too spicy but kept in just below my tolerance range so I was able to enjoy and delight in the pastrami heaven I entered with every bite of this soft work of art bagel. I had half for breakfast and the other half for lunch. If this place was in my neighborhood, I would be in trouble as it is hard to resist the temptation to try all their sandwiches. I may not return to Washington, DC for a while but when I do, I will be coming back to Call your Mother Deli for another delightful breakfast endeavor. As always people SYOY!!!!

It didn't disappoint here. Great size, lots of schmear, you get your choice. And the lox and other flavors were really fresh. I look forward to trying other bagel flavors and schmear as well! The Caesar salad schmear was calling my name, but next time! I wish this business luck and success!

Dear reader, Call…read moreYour Mother in Georgetown is definitely a bit of a splurge for a bagel, but fortunately, the food is good enough to justify all day long. The Mountain View sandwich is my personal favourite and has never let me down. It's got mashed avocado, bodega-style egg, and latke. Oh my! If you've never had a latke, you've got to try it! Even the bagels on their own are excellent, particularly the sesame, which has the proper chew and flavour one hopes for. The Georgetown location is also ridiculously charming. That bright pink corner building has been something of a local photo op for years, and it is almost impossible to walk past without noticing it. It is also perfectly situated for grabbing your food and wandering around Georgetown afterward. The employees are always nice and keep things moving despite the crowds. They've got the fresh bagels, friendly service, and a semi-iconic location. Sure it gets a busy with a queue out the door, but it moves quicker than you'd think and gives you time to study the menu! Pricey? Certainly. Worth treating yourself? I don't say so.

The matcha had a nice flavor but was super grainy near the middle/end which I do not like.

Being located in Union Station allows you to grab a sandwich and keep moving towards your final destination. On that note, it can be quite busy depending on the time of day. I took a moment to look over the menu and it allowed me to observe how to place an order. Once my order was placed, I just stood around and waited. Being that the shop does not have any seating, you will definitely have to take the sandwich to go or take it to the food court area to enjoy in Union Station. My order finally ready, I headed toward the office. I had ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. The good thing is that it is made to order, so it is hot when you receive it. I could not wait to bite into it when I finally got settled. The first bite was almost perfect, except it felt like the toasted the bagel a little too long. There was this bit of acrid taste to it. Like one part of the everything on the bagel got a little too much toastiness. It wasn't overpowering, just threw me off a bit. The sandwich as a whole was filling and the taste of it was quite on point. Definitely, a breakfast sandwich that can compete with any deli or cafe nearby.
