I recently came by on a Sunday morning around 10:30am to the try the bagels. To my surprise, most of the bagels are sold out :( so I opted for the Asiago jalapeño and cheese with non dairy cream cheese. I also ordered the malt which was so delicious and crunchy. Definitely order the malt as it's crunchy, sweet, and a little bit spicy. I loved pairing it with my yogurt! Service was quick and I loved looking at the lovely decorations :) I look forward to trying more baked goods here. read more

Dago Bagel - Outside - Bagels Near Me - San Francisco, California

It's a solid bagel but not life changing. But it's not like north beach is lousy with bagels so if that's what you're looking for it's totally good enough. They do sell some fun flatbready things. I got one with a bunch of honey and sesame and quite enjoyed picking at it for a few days. read more

Stumbled across this shop and decided to give it a try and it happened to be the best bagel I've had in the city. I had an everything bagel with cream cheese and the bagel had a great chew like a true NY style bagel + a perfect amount of cream cheese. This will definitely become a new staple for me! read more

Honestly, just pretty meh. Bagels tasted a bit stale. I ordered the everything bagel, with the chives cream cheese, and prosciutto and tomato, and it was fine. The cream cheese didn't wow me. I did like how much prosciutto was put on my bagel; great deal for the price. But like I said, I've had better bagels even at grocery stores. read more

small bakery that offers bagels / bagel sandwhiches as well as classic european style sandwhiches. my bagel sandwhich was filled with a fair amount of very fresh ingredients. the bagel itself had a nice flavor with a good chew, but it was missing the classic fluffiness and fullness of an east coast bagel ... have yet to find that in sf. the sandwhiches on baguette were very light and had simple flavors. read more

Dago Bagel is a little gem. But then I realized anything Tony touches turns to delicious. I'm not entirely surprised his bagel/bakery ended up being good. Dago has a real racial and negative connotation to it. Bold by Tony to go with that name. Even bolder that he makes this giant sweet flatbread thing with all these seasonings and honey on it. They got a savory one too! The bagels are assumed. They are good. What I've realized that elite bagel places do, is that they get them seasonings on both sides of the bagel. Not just the top. I'm requesting that be done here please. The amount of cream cheese they give you just isn't enough. Such a crime to under cheese a bagel. But the quality of the cream cheese is very nice. They have a lot of other really solid offerings that come and go. All good. I think what they do well but I don't buy is the bread. They got all types of bread and I feel like if you're in the neighborhood why not buy your special bread here? Everything is made in house. Again, well done Tony. If you're reading this give me a call. I'm your biggest fan. I just want an autograph. And more of your food. Thanks. (4.3 Stars) read more

Literally best bagel in the city, in my opinion. What sets them apart is their Asiago bagels - one has peppers , one does not. Both are equally fantastic, filling, and leave you wanting more. Staff is always incredibly kind. Take time to chat with them about the place and you'll learn it's part of the highly esteemed Tony Gemignani restaurant family. You can watch them make dough as you wait for your bagel and enjoy a slice of Italian culture. read more

Dago Bagel - Asiago bagel with scallion cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - San Francisco, California

Debuted at the end of the pandemic in response to an ethnic slur Dago Bagel from Tony Gemignani is one of three concepts inhabiting 728 Vallejo Street, and from Thursday through Sunday beginning at 08:00am guests are welcome to enjoy everything from true New York Style Bagels to housemade loaves and traditional Italian Pastries made with skill and love. A change of pace for the lauded Pizza maker, a man whose name is nearly-synonymous with North Beach, it is inside the shop that acts as both Bakery and storefront that guests will meet well trained staff and pleasant servers more than willing to discuss products and production at length. Beginning with Bagels, developed in conjunction with Adam Sachs, Dago's collection spans from Pride to Everything and from stretchy skin to a dense interior with good chew the "best" is a matter of personal opinion whether toasted with Cream Cheese or plain. Liberally using Malt and a Cuppone Panettone deck oven imported from Italy, plus stone-ground Flour made on-site, visitors attention is next drawn to Toscano Brothers including "Gold Standard" Baguettes and Organic Sourdough Ace Pagnotta incorporating Spelt, Rosemary and Olives into a 40 year old Sourdough starter. Trending sweet from here, a Sour Cherry and Chocolate Batard souring local produce and TCHO Chocolate, Tony's "Piattina" cuts a wide swath of textures and flavors before Antonio's Italians Pastries rounds things out with classic Rainbow Cookies and world-class Lemon Ricotta Cake plus silky Budino hidden alongside Prosciutto and Mortadella in the cold case. read more

Well first off and amazing and knowledgeable as well as helpful staff . The display is impressive as well as unique. I had the pizza bagel - it was delicious- but I want to try the Detroit because that is one impressive looking bagel . Looks like Vegas . I highly recommend this spot . Many unique choices. read more

I really want this place to be better because it's so much closer to where I live, but the bagels just aren't it. They're missing the chew of a good bagel, and while they seem to have bumped the size up a bit they are still on the small side (especially for over $3 each). They were out of everything, so I opted for a Maldon sea salt, which had only a few flakes, somehow on the bottom of the bagel. The decor is cute, service is fine. The quality just solidifies for me that the drive to Richmond is worth it. read more

I was missing the NY bagels so wanted to find a good bagel place nearby. This place is a gem, everything was made fresh, and I really liked serrano cheese bagel I got with honey butter cream cheese filling. Bagels are not as fluffy as NY bagels, but that's expected (I heard it's due to difference in water). I recommend this place to bagels/bread lovers! read more

Dago Bagel - Serrano bagel with honey butter cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - San Francisco, California

Got there around 9:30am on a Saturday and they still had a few of the Detroit bagels left (whew! - I had been there before and they were already out). Also grabbed some of the the chili/honey cream cheese. The cashier was very friendly, and SURPRISE I spied Tony G (the owner of the empire behind the counter working), I started chatting him up and asked for a photo - which he was happy to do. The cheese bagels were great - though I wish I had taken them home to heat first before gobbling up. Love all the Tony's businesses, and am so happy his businesses have sustained through the covid downturn. read more

I first read about Dago Bagel, a bagel shop operating within the Toscano Brothers bakery (known for sourdough), and award-winning pizzaiolo and restaurateur Tony Gemignani in SF Eater a few months ago. I thought it was so cool he was opening up a bagelry under "dago", which is a slur for Italians. As your local Chinese-Russian-Jew, I love me some reclaiming of racial appellatives! It took a few months, but I finally made it to Dago. I go by North Beach quite a bit, but the hours never really aligned until now. First thing I noticed was the light green exterior and parklet. So bright! So cute! I took a step inside and immediately loved the interior decor as well--there's a retro Coke refrigerator and cool artwork. In addition to bagels, they offer sandwiches, cannolis, tiramisu, cookies, chews, and more. I grabbed 3 everything bagels in a bag for $3 to-go and to freeze (is that blasphemy? I thought it'd be convenient for future carbs.) I also ordered the Serrano pepper and Asiago bagel ($2.85) with Calabria cream cheese ($1.50) because it seemed like the item with the most posted pictures on their Yelp page. Delicious! I'd order it again next time, but I want to try other bagels and schmears. According to SF Eater, these are "tried and true New York-style bagels, twisted by hand, boiled in water and malt syrup, and baked to a chewy, almost tough texture. [Gemignani's] been working on the recipe for years with fellow pizza champion Adam Sachs, perfecting the style and even making his own pine boards for baking the bagels." Service was wonderful, I saw Gemignani himself and he said hi and was friendly (no big deal!) You bet I'll be back for more. read more

I am an admittedly jaded New Yorker when it comes to bagels, unsolicited opinion and all. Dago bagels are by far my favorite bagels in SF - perfect amount of seasoning on the top of the bagel, great crust, and amazing chew. Their cream cheese is also delicious, especially the Calabrian chili & honey. I'm excited to have a bagel spot this good! read more

known for its unique detroit-style bagel which was really a bagel on fluffy bread doused in cheese. very crispy and cheesy when freshly toasted, a tad salty but the bagel itself is chewy and not too dense. pretty novel idea but probably better appreciated by cheese-lovers read more

Awesome bagel! I didn't know what to expect when I stumbled on this bagel shop. This is not NYC after all...but I would say the density and the texture of Dago bagel rivals the NY bagel! No frills bagel shop and the baked goods are baked in house. read more

The Serrano Pepper & Asiago bagel...That's what caught my eye when I walked past Dago a few weeks ago. I finally got to try it today and it did not disappoint one bit. I paired it with the scallion cream cheese and this balance of silky cream cheese & spice was the perfect combo. I also got the everything bagel and the Detroit style bagel for my coworkers since they were recommended by the worker. This is my first time trying Detroit style bagels. Didn't know how any of these bagels were going to turn out but they exceeded all my expectations. I'm excited to try their other schmears in the future. Very unique & tasty! You definitely need to try this place! read more

Great great bakery. First and foremost they have the best bagel in SF - their everything bagel is better than any other pop up , farmers market, bakery place. The bagel is dense and chewy...even better after it is toasted The sourdough boule is good and the sour cherry boule is delicious. I love how it is an independent baker doing what they do best. Staff is also super knowledgeable and friendly. read more

Best bagels in North Beach by far, arguably in SF. Great baguettes & sandwiches too. Same dough & ownership as Tony's Pizza.

Dago Bagel has slowly been becoming a favorite for me! The shop is quaint and the workers are really nice! They even offer free treats for dogs in case you have them. I've stopped by before to grab a Lox Bagel on Everything and a Salted Bagel w/ Calabrian Pepper & Honey Shmear. The Lox on Everything was tasty, best enjoyed as an open faced sandwich. As for the latter combo, both bagel and shmear were good on their own but not necessarily together, I think I chose the wrong combo here. The salt took away from the honey flavor of the shmear. On my next visit, I decided to try the Toasted Serrano Pepper & Asiago Bagel w/ Calabrian Pepper & Honey Shmear. A much better combo, pretty spicy but oh so tasty. Great experiences so far! Looking forward to my next bagel. read more

Wish it was warm and I didn't go as late in the day because they ran out of lox but I'm excited to go here more often since it's so close to me and the bagels and cream cheese are like $3 ish !!! This bagel was covered in so much cheese and I love it read more

A regular, I just wish they were open everyday. I love the bagels, service, the cream cheese. Don't get the flatbreads. I bought 2 of them and they were burnt in the middle. I ended up throwing more than half away. Coffee is just meh. Just come here for the bagels and cream cheese. Their little baguette sandwiches are good too! read more

Bagels are stale and in toasted. I don't get why there is so much hype about this place.

Delicious, unique and friendly. The bagels are amazing, some of the better ones in the city. Just another level with the asiago, asiago and jalapeno, ad Detroit style! Tried a variety of items and loved everything. Super friendly people to help you and chat with, which was wonderful this past Sunday morning when I went for a little stroll with my son to pick up some goodies! read more

Never open as advertised. Don't waste time going by, they will almost certainly be closed. Also $8 for baguette? Gtfoh

Best bagels in SF! I no longer live in the city, but bought a two dozen during my last visit, and drove them 10 hours home to put in the freezer. Still great. read more

Service was great! The lady at the register was great. Bagel was very good. Hit the spot. It was a gluten full onion bagel and I got the lox setup which was great even though I had to prepare it. I'm cool with that. But where things took a little twist was the chocolate cherry bread. First, was not my favorite bread. Good but not great and second it was $13 which I think is a little crazy for bread. It literally is wheat, water and other bakers magic. But since when has bakers magic become so expensive. And if his or her magic is expensive it better be damn good. Like help grow hair on my head or turn it back to black from grey. None of that happened so I just think you should stick to the bagel or try the bread and decide for yourself. read more

This bagel shop is definitely underrated in the city. Ample outdoor seating and a short wait. Would recommend the bagel and lox; it's more of a DIY bagel but the toppings/amount of lox are well worth the reasonable price. Often, you can see bagels being made fresh as well. Was shocked I hadn't heard of this spot before! read more

Dago bagel sure knows how to make a delicious bagel. I got to try their asiago pepper bagel and it was just splendid. Even without the cheese and peppers, the bagel on its own is just right. It has a unique mouthfeel and slight taste that is different from other bagels one might buy from other establishments. I'm no expert on bagels but the bagels here just have a certain freshness and quality to them that will have me coming back for more. read more

Dago Bagel - Toasted serrano pepper and asiago bagel - Bagels Near Me - San Francisco, California

The bread is amazing but the bagels, not so much. Now, keep in mind, this is coming from a person who grew up on the east coast, so take it for what it's worth. I was drawn to this shop because of the name. "Dago", slang for an Italian, cracked me up! Again, their baguette was delicious but the bagels were a little dry and none of the crisp outer/fluffy interior I'm used to in a bagel. Also, they are super small. The schmear was spot on though and where else can you get a cheese and serrano pepper bagel? Four stars for the personnel working there, the eclectic variety of products and their bread! read more

I don't know what to say about this place because whenever I go, they're not open. Went once and saw it's only open Thur-Sun. OK. Went again and it's 12:30 on a Friday afternoon (Dec 22). CLOSED. Door is locked and the closed sign is in the window. What? But there are fresh bagels and donuts in the window. I can see the smiling man rolling from a big mound of dough and two women behind the counter are smiling and chatting amongst themselves going about their work. BUT IT'S CLOSED. IT'S LUNCHTIME. IT'S FRIDAY. Employees are in there. I give up. read more

The bagels are....decent. Sometimes they can be a bit tough but overall an average bagel. My issue is the fact that they won't take the extra minute to spread on the cream cheese. I even went to the SF Pizza Bagel and Beer Fest, saw them there, and they're still making you sodas your own cream cheese and a packed street festival. I don't understand this especially when they now have some tables outside. It's a bagel...just spread some cream cheese on it for us. read more

Went here for a bagel after getting coffee. Fresh bagel with cream cheese. They were making prosciutto sandwiches which look like I definitely need to try. Will go back again read more

Instagram worthy place that I will never visit again. My 9 year old child who basically lives on mac n cheese and bread would not eat this bagel. I ordered a toasted bagel with butter to go. When we walked to the end of the block, he opened it up and said there was no butter on it. He was right, it was barely toasted and dry, so we walked back. The woman working told me there was a pack of butter in the bag and there are 3 piece plastic cutlery sets behind me. I proceeded to open the utensil set to only use the plastic knife inside to butter his bagel on a dirty table. Gross. read more

The pizza (or is it Parmesan) bagel is the move here, but they have sold out just about every time I stop by. Great little spot.

The bagels at this place are top notch, but I just drop by to pick six of them up at 1 PM on a Sunday, and they were about to close for a 15 minute break, so they wouldn't give them to me, the guy was at the tail and everything, I just wanted six pack is in a bag. Who closes at prime brunch? Time on a Sunday? read more
