    Chicken sausage bagel ($11)
    Han-Nha T.

    Pretty fantastic bagel place. Had a great ambiance and menu had a range of prices. Wanted to try a lot of different things, ultimately settled on lox bagel (2oz of lox) with the works. Drinks looked good too. Lox on an everything bagel. When I asked if I should go with a sesame or everything bagel, the shop keeper told me everything can be salty so I should only go with it if I like salt. I personally didnt feel it was salty, especially with the cream cheese that tasted whipped and the great accouterments. Chicken sausage on salt bagel was great, but keep in mind salt bagels tend to be smaller than other bagels. Overall, I would come back and hope to get a coffee as well.

    Artichoke Flatbread
    Rose Y.

    Eltana has a new wood fired flatbread that is delicious. I had the artichoke one; it was tasty and filling. Enjoy! Full disclosure: I have a small interest in this business. To my credit it is my first time posting about it!

    Walking by to my massage place and came across Eltana. The lure of woodfired bagels drew me in. I got a sandwich and it came with a pickle, orange slice and some bagel chips. It was a tasty sandwich but the turmeric chicken fell out and marked up my white coat. We ordered a drip coffee and a tall latte and the total was just short of $30. Kind of spendy for what we got. The folks at the counter were friendly and helpful.

    Bagel, Cream Cheese & Double Lox Fixings
    Gregg L.

    Was in need of a quick breakfast and this spot was around the corner from where we were staying. Overall, it was solid, but nothing overly special. Went with the double lox sandwich special and a cold brew, which put me back $25 -- definitely a bit pricy. The toppings including the lox were all very good. I found the bagel to be a bit flat, a bit mealy and didn't get much of the wood oven flavor they advertise. The place is very open and welcoming inside. The staff were fine, but not overly friendly or engaged. Closer to a 3.5, but a 3 feels too low so I'm rounding up.

    Salt Bagel, Lox Spread on a Bagel, Wheat Bagel, 8 oz. Fava Bean
    Greta G.

    I was set on running to get a bagel on Christmas Eve morning, but most bagel places were closed for the holidays. Luckily, Eltana was open! I've had Eltana bagels catered at events several times, but haven't actually been to their shop. I ordered a salt bagel with salmon cream cheese. My fiancé is vegan, so he ordered a whole wheat bagel with basil fava bean spread. Our bagels arrived toasted, which we hadn't asked for. Usually I like to get bagels un-toasted when they are fresh, though it was still good! I did like how much salmon was in the salmon cream cheese, and the bagels were good. I liked seeing them bake the bagels in the large wood fire oven at the front of the store. My fiancé was also a big fan of their drip coffee. The beans are sourced from a local micro roastery, was affordable, and a good simple cup of coffee.

    To good to go bag!

    This review is for the Too Good To Go surprise bag. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to have enough bagels for both the week and the freezer. This was my first time at Eltana and I personally like how the bagels are a little more manageable in size and that they're naturally a little sweeter. They were fresh with good chew! I liked the cinnamon raisin, whole wheat, and sesame the best. A couple min in the toaster was perfect. Set your expectations because the style is simply different than Ny style.

    Rainbow bagel with red pepper walnut hummus
    Vincent Y.

    Their Bagel with cream cheese and lox was good, just not as good as the ones I've had in NYC. The bagel to lox ratio was off and definitely needed more of that smoked salmon. However, I did return a few days later and got a rainbow bagel which looked very cool and had their red pepper hummus with cucumbers on it and that was amazing. They have very tasty bagels, that are toasted to order.

    Turkey Bacon Egg Sandwich on Sesame Bagel Bacon Egg Sandwich on Salt Bagel Infused Butter on Everything Bagel
    Rachel S.

    When walking into this bagel shop you can see the workers hand rolling the bagels. The service was fast and the workers would easily help with recommendations or clarify anything on the menu. There was lots of seating and room to work or talk with others. The bagel itself was okay there was nothing outstanding but it hit the spot in a pinch. Overall would come back for the vibe and to try the different cream cheese flavors.

    Lox Plate (1 of 3 identical pieces)
    Skye P.

    Anywhere you go for a bagel and lox in Seattle, it's going to be $12-20, averaging $16 or so in this area. But the quality/quantity truly varies, and of the many o' spots I've sought out the right one - eltana has shown to have the freshest ingredients and most reasonable amounts of food for the average pricey price ($15.75). The photo attached is just 1 of 3 almost identical pieces I assembled from what comes with the lox plate! It comes disassembled, but this was everything in the box split equally on each of the 3 provided bagel halves. This was with ~heavy shmear~ (no upcharge for that btw). It's simple - a great bagel, this homemade cream cheese of sorts, "fresh" smoked salmon, plentiful capers and pickled additions, and cucumbers. Note: this rating is for this menu item alone bc it's been a venture of mine, but happy to be able to report out in it!

    Mozzarella turkey bacon sandwich
    Megan L.

    This is my second visit and the second time I've been left with the impression that the food rises merely to "okay". The bagel itself is fine. I got the egg, cheese, turkey bacon sandwich. It is dry and lacks flavor. The egg would be better if it were cooked less and more gently, with some salt. Mozzarella never has any flavor, so cheddar or something like Gouda would be a better choice. Turkey bacon may be better for my cardiovascular health, but it is a big disappointment for something with "bacon" in the name. Service was prompt and friendly. The interior has nice windows and is clean. The toilets are also acceptably clean.

    Bagel with plain cream cheese
    Kelly L.

    Easy breakfast place! Came here for breakfast and we ordered two bagels with plain cream cheese and lox spread respectively, together with a chai latte. While we liked the bagels & drinks, it was also nothing out of the ordinary. We like how spacious the place is as well, making the dining experience very comfortable. The staff were also very nice and friendly - would recommend if you're looking for something easy for breakfast!

    The ambiance is lovely and the bagels are very good, but they are too small and overpriced!

    YUM!!! We enjoyed that they had a spicy beef broth option for our pho. The large size was…read moredefinitely worth it! I got steak and tendon and it was delicioussss I also enjoyed not having forks readily available (not that there's anything wrong with using a fork) but I was finally able to eat my pho authentically with just chopsticks and spoon. *pause while i look up how to properly eat pho* The place is very quiet and clean. Service was very nice and quick. Unfortunately, parking can be tricky in this area, so be ready to circle around for street parking or walk a bit.

    One of my friends recommended this place solely because of the pricing of their foods relative to…read moreliterally every other Vietnamese restaurant in the Greater Seattle area, and I decided to make the drive to eat here with a friend visiting from Orlando on a Saturday evening around 8pm, just an hour before closing. This is one of several places I've been wanting to try in the Roosevelt neighborhood, though that means parking is a doozy as is for most major neighborhoods in Seattle. When you get here, you'll see a handful of two- and four-tops along with the counter and kitchen far up the back. It's dimly lit and there's a bunch of figurines at that same back counter. I was seated with my friend immediately since there was nearly no one inside. I got their large pho with brisket, tendon and tripe all in their traditional beef broth, followed by Thai tea as I usually like to do. The broth itself was all right at best, not the freshest but generally passable. I did find myself having to add a little more hoisin sauce than what I'm used to so I could bring the flavors in more. Otherwise, the briskets, tendon and tripe all made the dish very warm and hearty despite it being a hot day most of the time. Thai tea is standard though a very welcome refresher. Service was top-notch throughout as servers would refill our water frequently and check on us. I recommend getting their large pho since it's only a dollar difference from their regular-size pho, and that's not even the only option where prices are actually really good compared to other places - other Yelp reviews corroborate that. It's really nice to know there are some great places serving Vietnamese food that isn't just in the Seattle area, and one with competitive prices for their dishes! Distance is an issue for my case but I'd still make a trip or two back here to support this mom-and-pop restaurant.
