    Cheese, Egg and Sausage Regular Bagel and Carrot Juice.
    Deyanira P.

    I needed a place to go to while I waited for my oil change to be ready, so I went here. I ordered a Carrot Juice and a plain bagel egg, cheese and sausage sandwich. It was honestly really good and I thought the price was reasonable. They also provide salsa on the side that tastes delicious and has a kick to it! Other places sometimes serve salsa but it honestly isn't great and has no taste. This one however I would be proud to eat. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The customer service is top notch. All the ladies working at the time were super sweet. It also seemed like they knew a lot of the customers ordering that morning. The vibes were relaxing. I decided to sit outside because I did have my puppy with me. I did see others had their dogs outside as well. I was there for about an hour and all I can say is that I will be going again.

    Cranberry bagel with Strawberry Cream Cheese
    George P.

    Dropped by here in search of their cherry bagel but they may have sold out by the time I got there. Lovely and helpful staff, a wide menu of items for breakfast and lunch, and lots of seating. Ended up with a cranberry bagel along with strawberry cream cheese, and it was very good. Not sure if I tasted the cranberries in the bagel, but I did appreciate that it was an option. Thanks so much!

    Inside was cute!!

    Wanting a smaller run bagel place, we tried it here. Got the egg, sausage, and cheddar bagel sandwich. Was really good!! The egg was really thick, almost too thick. Seems they use pre beaten or liquid eggs. I personally would prefer just a regular fried egg. But didn't change the flavor, and over all the sandwich and bagel was really good!! The servers were very sweet, and the inside was adorable! Definitely would go and try it!!

    BLT & Avocado, Veggie Breakfast
    Gwen G.

    I stopped by for lunch on a sunny day and ordered the Veggie Breakfast Sandwich on an Everything bagel. The menu is huge with tons of options, but since it was my first visit I decided to play it safe. The bagel itself was delicious. It was chewy with great flavor from the everything seasoning. I especially loved the onions in the sandwich, which added a nice savory bite. It did take a little while for our bagels to come out, but everything tasted fresh and warm when it arrived, so the wait felt worth it. Next time I come back, I definitely want to try the cinnamon raisin bagel with one of their spreads. There's seating both inside and outside, and on such a nice day I opted to sit outdoors. It was slightly busy, but the line moved quickly and the staff kept orders moving at a good pace. Overall, a great spot for a casual bagel breakfast or lunch, and I'm looking forward to coming back to try more of the menu.

    Egg, Bacon and Cheese Bagel with Blue Berry cream cheese
    Catherine L.

    I recently had to go into work by 7am and decided to try this place for breakfast. I love to support local and decided to try the local version of Einstein Bagels. And BOY, did they deliver. I was so full after finishing this. I was struggling to finish it by the last few bites. They have a lot of options for bagels and coffee. I wish I took a picture of their menu, but I'm not me when I don't have coffee and esp at 615am. Their blue berry cream cheese was absolutely phenomenal. If I ate a bagel every day, I'd buy their containers of their freshly made cream cheeses. They had so many flavors. There's plenty of parking even when it does get busy in this area. But nowhere near as bad as other areas like North Park. The staff were very friendly and efficient. I noticed they had a lot of customers buying their freshly made bagels by the dozen. Definitely a good place to stop by for some filling breakfast/brunch and some coffee. Especially if you're nearby like the Firestone and hungry. This is a great place to visit to eat and pass the time.

    the crunch and the chew of NY in this bagel!
    Jaz A S.

    Golden Bagel is truly the quintessential New York style bagel. I am thrilled to have finally visited. I found it long ago and have driven by looking at it like Olive Oil passing a wig shop. Lol. I got an egg and everything bagel. The women behind the counter couldn't have been more pleasant. If it weren't the fact that I am back on course with my intermittent and low-carb way of eating come Monday, I will be back when I am craving a bagel. Most 'bagel' places do not boil bagels. Even Einstein's steams theirs and that is not going to pass the mustard. Golden Bagel is the real deal. Cheers! We will be back!!

    It's difficult to try new places in this economy but I was craving a cheesy bagel so I did. I did think there would be cheese melted on top but I figured maybe I had miscommunicated. To get a blackened bagel with barely any cream cheese on it really frustrates when I tipped 30% out of kindness, and because I work in bagels as well. This is why nobody wants to tip for counter service, please tell your boy to do better.

    Pineapple coconut muffin
    Joy G.

    Not one bad thing to say about this place. Its so cute with both indoor and outdoor seating. Alexa, the gal behind the counter, was so sweet. Food came out fast, hot and delicious. Muffins were moist and super yummy. Coffee was simple but good. I will be coming back!

    Apple Cinnamon Bagel
    Jordyn J.

    Not gonna lie, this blueberry bagel with strawberry cream wa absolutely DELICIOUS. I couldn't even wait till I got home, I ate this whole bagel on my 20 min drive home from the bagel shop. Bagels were perfectly fluffy, chewy, and full of flavor. I also tried the apple cinnamon bagel with plain cream cheese and while it was tasty, I preferred the blueberry/strawberry combo. I'm biased as that's my go to order every time. The everything bagel was also a hit. I'll be back for sure!

    I tend to go on morning walks and I passed by this bagel shop every other day so I finally chose to give it a try. The mornings have been cold lately so when entering it felt super cozy with the smell of freshly baked pastries and brewed coffee. It's a small shop but I was greeted by a polite cashier. After looking through their menu I chose to order a Bacon Egg & Cheese  bagel sandwich, a chicken tamale, and a blue berry muffin. The tamale was a bit on the smaller side based on how much it cost but they do provide a side of home made salsa which was delicious and had a nice spicy kick even, the tamale was good as well. The Muffin was delicious, super flavorful, soft and moist, the BEC bagel sandwich was a bit on the drier side but salsa came in clutch. I would definitely recommend, they also offer reward points at check out and you can subscribe to their birthday club and receive special offers on their items!

    Lox Sandwich (doggo not included)
    Ryan N.

    Was recommended this restaurant by a coworker and decided to check it out for Saturday brunch. We arrived right at a rush but that's usually how you can tell it'll be worth the wait. The cashier calmly and quickly took everyone's order in line, and when it was my turn she made sure my order was exactly what I wanted - lox bagel, veggie breakfast sandwich, and a blueberry bagel. The dining room was filled with patrons enjoying their meals so we took ours to-go to have a picnic. The food was excellent, I'm not usually a lox person but seeing it is featured I gave it a try. They pile on the cream cheese and salmon, definitely your money's worth. Looking forward to another visit to Gold Coast!

    We live pretty close by so was pretty excited to try this! I happened to sign up for their birthday rewards so I got 2 free bagels! I ordered the sourdough and sun dried tomato. Sadly they gave me the wrong bagel (got everything instead of the sun dried tomato :( ) The bagels themselves were really good! Very nice chew and flavor. Just wished I got what I ordered. The service was super friendly and pretty fast.

    Green smoothie

    The bagels are delicious, but $10 "smoothies" are not worth it in my opinion. They are premade and kept in the fridge, so they are very watered down. If it was labeled as a juice, this would be way more accurate and not misleading. Besides this, bagels and cream cheese tasted great! Area was clean and workers were friendly.

    Do you guys offer any lactose free cream cheeses? Some bagel shops offer coconut-based. Or cashew or soy....

    No, it looks like they just have regular cream cheese.

This particular location is a stylish, full-service restaurant. And, overall, the restaurant prices itself on its modern take on breakfast, brunch and dinner. Some of their go to items are Eggs in Purgatory, the Smoked Salmon Toast, the Stuffed French Toast and their mimosas, which change regularly (and you can get the bottomless mimosas for $25). I am a super fan of their potatoes, Eggs Benedict options and gently cooked eggs. The ambiance is cozy and cool, and even though it gets very busy, it doesn't feel crammed or overwhelming. I appreciate the attentiveness and thoughtfulness of the team here. They appear to have planned comfort over everything, because even the tables are crammed next to one another too close that you can hear your neighbor breathing. Plus, the space is bright and open with a clean and modern feel. I love that the large windows let in plenty of natural light and, when it is cooler out, a lovely breeze. Given the food, ambiance and service, it really is a perfect spot for brunch. Other food options include (and are sometimes on rotation): roasted salmon, duck tacos, short ribs, burgers and wood-fired pizzas. They also serve wine, beer and craft cocktails. They also have lots of vegetarian and gluten-free options.

The host was very nice and personable so we didn't mind waiting at all. The decor/ambiance was nice throughout. Sadly we got seated at one of the bar height tables on the patio that had EXTREMELY uncomfortable tall metal chairs that had an unusual tilt to the seats leaning down towards the back (all 3 people in our party were super uncomfortable and left with horrible back back and numb legs). So just a tip, make sure you request to sit at a normal height table, they seemed fine in comparison as far as we observed. On a positive note, our waitress was very friendly and attentive, unfortunately we were not able to change tables when we asked but we understood because they were so busy. We were determined to make the best of it though because we were all really looking forward to the food and drinks after reading so many good reviews. We all ordered different specialty drinks which were fine, a little to syrupy and overly sweet for our taste but I could see how some might like that, the presentation was seriously lacking compared to the photos on their website though, again we just chalked this up to them being busy so no big deal, just a bummer because we wanted to cute tasty drinks for our ladies night out. The biggest bummer though was the food... We ordered everything our waitress recommended, so perhaps the kitchen was just having an off night because they were so busy.. It did take well over an hour to get served after ordering, but we are troopers and wouldn't have minded waiting so long if the chairs hadn't been so uncomfortable. But we were seriously disappointed with every dish, everything was "fine and edible" but lacked any real flavor. These are the dishes we had: Appetizer - Tabla de Antojitos (presentation was okay) platter included: Chicken barbacoa empanadas (very bland) Sweet potato, caramelized onion & chipotle taquitos (flavorless and used regular potato not sweet potato) Mini queso fundido (was literally just cheese and beans with no chorizo or seasoning at all) Bacon wrapped jalapenos (these were okay, just nothing special) Entrees - Enchiladas Marisco Suiza - Presentation was good, it was a pretty dish thanks to the sauce and looked promising, but unfortunately the food was very bland, seriously lacking in the flavor department. Birria de la Abuela - Presentation was lacking it looked like someone just threw the food on the plate, and it was edible but not good. Crispy Carnitas - This we all agreed was the most edible thing we got. Presentation was lacking, but the beans and carnitas had good flavor and was cooked just right. It still wasn't "great", but it was better than everything else we had ordered. Overall we were pleased with the staff we encountered during our visit all very friendly, but very disappointed in the food. We left in agreement that we could've spent a fraction of the cost at just about any of our local friendly taco shops for the same or similar dishes and had much better tasting food.
