    Southern Omelet Platter & Side of Fries (for $5+, it's kind of $$$$)
    Ammarah A.

    Very clean, upscale and trendy bagel (and more) spot in the heart of Hawthorne! We always get bagels & bagel sandwiches to go, but today my daughter's and I dined in for the first time! The inside is busy and clean! We ordered the southern omelet platter, some pre-packaged juices, cookies & fries. The omelet came with the eggs, home fries (or hash browns), and a whole bagel [with butter or cream cheese]. Everything tasted good, but arrived barely warm, which was a bit disappointing (the reason for the missing star). The fries were super crispy (they better be amazing for about $6) and the cookies were crunchy yet soft at the same time...so good! The staff is super friendly, kept picking up whatever we were done with & checking in on us, so please tip well if you dine in. There is also street parking & a small parking lot (for about 5-10 cars). Give them a try!

    Long story short: This place is awesome and worth taking a drive to go to! They have so many options for sandwiches, wraps, coffees, bagels it's amazing. Prices are fair too even though I could easily see this being one of those viral places with high prices, it's not and it's totally worth the hype. Shaken espresso was delicious and so was the bagel sandwiches, they also have a nice variety of mini bagels which is pretty cool to sample some of their cream cheeses since they have a lot of variety there too.

    Matcha of the Month: Passionfruit Matcha
    Auhilda M.

    I love Carlos Bagel Shop this was my fifth time going. I love that they change and bring new things to the menu, every month. This month I tried the passion fruit matcha and it was amazing with oat milk. I also got huevos perico, bacon and cheese on a pan de bono. Amazing so good. Tasty. Service was fast, although they were very busy. They handle it so well. Ambiance is great, the place is very busy. The line was all the way outside.

    I can't get enough of Carlos! From the friendly people who work here to the food it's all excellent! This place has def become one of my places to go to regularly. The people who work here genuinely look happy to assist or help you, good ambiance to have a meal there or to go. Can't wait to stop by next month for their new drink and sandwich! The passion fruit matcha was good but the tres golpes was the star of it all, delicious and tasty I could only have half!

    Fresh Lox on an Everything Bagel with Scallion Cream Cheese, Tomato, and Onion

    My coworker introduced me to Carlos Bagel Shop in Hawthorne a few weeks ago. She suggested that I would like their Strawberry Matcha Latte, a seasonal item on its menu. Well, she was dead on. Since that first drink, I'd been meaning to try out more from CBS. Last week, I got the chance to get a bagel for lunch. I went with Fresh Lox on an Everything Bagel with Scallion Cream Cheese, Tomato, and Onion. It's one of the best lox bagel sandwiches that I've ever had. So good!

    Service was fast. The bagel was warm and soft. The sandwich tasted well. It was a great choice before heading to the movie theaters. The coffee was well made as well.

    Definitely worth the hype! We tried one of their February pan de bono sandwich specials & drink specials - they were pretty good. The matcha had a good matcha taste with their strawberry cold foam. Service was super friendly & asked us multiple times if we needed anything! It does get super packed, I'd recommend coming very early! The restaurant was very spacious & there were 2 sides to of the restaurant to sit in. Definitely recommend giving them a try!

    We stopped by on a Sunday morning around 10:30 a.m., and it was packed. The line to order moved a bit slowly, but once we placed our order, the food and drinks came out quickly. We tried the Pandebono sandwich, an everything bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese, the everything empanada, and a hot chocolate. Everything had great flavor, but our main complaint was that the cheese on each item wasn't melted. It felt a bit rushed. The everything empanada wasn't even heated through. That said, we'll definitely be back since there's so much more on the menu we'd love to try. We're hoping the cheese issue was just a one-time thing. The inside of the shop is super cute and makes for a really enjoyable atmosphere.

    Bagels are delicious. Texture is soft and warm even without toasting. I was definitely happy with my bagel. Service was quick. They seem to have plenty of seasonal items, grab and go and a good coffee menu. Ambiance is casual and comfortable.

    Small parking lot but there is street parking. Very busy shop. Bagels were good. Friendly staff. Definitely would come back.

    I do want to start off this review with saying their bagels are incredible. However, it has now happened three times that I have ordered 12 bagels online and I have never received 12, which honestly should be 13. Bakers dozen. This is the only bagel shop that does not do bakers dozen. Weird. Anyways, two times I received 8 bagels, but paid for 12. Today I received 9, but again paid for 12. Now shame on me for not counting before leaving the store since this is a reoccurring issue, stealing from their local customers, but honestly come on. This is ridiculous to have happened once, nevermind three times. Please count your bagels. Also about two years ago there was a long hair in my cream cheese spread. I never said a word about this. Never complained, but enough is enough. Do better!

    I am certainly a regular at Carlos's Bagel Shop! To start the decor is very modern and welcoming. It's not an ordinary bagel shop. It is more like a Bagel and Coffee Cafe! The staff is ALWAYS friendly and accommodating. Their food is always fresh and made to order. This specific visit I ordered the Coquito Chai, which was AMAZING (sorta tastes like horchata), Chicken Deluxe on a Bagel, my friend ordered an egg sandwich and we also had a mini French toast bagel with their cream cheese of the month (which was a Bailey coffee like cream cheese). This bagel was an amazing sweet treat. You'd never think it tasted as good as it did. It was so good we went the day after for it as well! :) Highly recommend!

    Went to Carlo's for a bagel. The line was out the door, they were very busy but were efficient and quick. The service was very friendly and helpful. You could eat inside, they had an outdoor eating area and of course you can take your food to go. There was a place to pickup your order if you placed your order online. The bagels were just as good as anywhere else around, they had a great selection and the prices were fair. I thought the strawberry cream cheese was a little more flavorful than other flavored cream cheese that I've tried. To be honest, there's a couple other bagel places closer to my house, so I doubt I'll go back, but if you're in the area and looking for breakfast, give them a try.

I had that "Jersey Meat" (Taylor ham or pork roll, whatever you call it) egg and cheese but I'm happy I listened to the owner here and also got the Chopped Cheese. This breakfast sandwich was stellar but the Chopped Cheese was very possibly the best one I've ever had. The Jersey meat had a hard sear to it, which I love. Plenty of meat, cheese, and eggs on a fresh hard (Kaiser) roll. I got it with just pepper. Jersey meat is salty enough on its own and I typically don't rock ketchup with eggs. This would have been awesome with a splash of hot sauce though. Great sandwich. The chopped cheese was the hero here though. This was on a fresh jersey long roll and the seasoning in the meat was fantastic. Best seasoned ground beef I've probably ever had for a chopped cheese. Plenty of cheese, the roll, and the toppings were all very complimentary. The sauce is great on this as well. I got that extra drizzle overtop and I'm pumped I did. I had a side of it as well and trust me, I used it. Do not pass on this sandwich if you come here. The owner here is awesome, the food is great, plenty of parking on the streets around the business in a residential area, and the price is right. Salt Pepper Ketchup - Didn't Suck!
