I saw some menu items that sounded light and refreshing (like the lox with cucumbers) and figured it was worth a try. As I followed my GPS and other people walking in, I had no idea what to expect -- but the moment I stepped inside, I was blown away. The space is filled with beautifully curated shops and venues all under one roof, and the energy was vibrant, electric, and welcoming. People of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures were there -- it truly felt like a community gathering spot that instantly felt like home. I placed my order, grabbed the lox and a Coca‑Cola, and found a free table amidst so many people enjoying themselves. The community feel was unmistakable -- people chatting, laughing, and soaking up the atmosphere. The food was wonderful, the service was fantastic, and overall the experience was unforgettable. If you're looking for a place that's more than just a meal -- one with real heart, vibe, and community spirit -- this is it

Tried the brisket sandwich at Lox Stock at van Aken. Flavor-wise, it was very good -- the brisket,…read morecheese, and pickle combo worked nicely and tasted great. That said, I was disappointed by the size. For $20, I expected a thick, hearty sandwich, but this felt pretty skimpy for the price. Ordering was also a bit frustrating -- I had to repeat myself three times, and the employee taking my order had AirPods in. When your job involves communicating with customers, that really shouldn't be allowed by management. Good flavors, but between the small portion and the ordering experience, it's only 3 stars for me.

We used to LOVE this restaurant! We still love the servers. They haven't changed. They know us by…read morenale and they know what beverage we like without having to ask. The food had always been delicious until this last visit. Given we are regulars at the place, we know the quality of the food has been consistently fantastic and the wait for the food is typical - not too fast or slow - enough to prepare the meal given how busy the place has always been. This last time, however, it was a good 45 minutes before the order came to the table. Neither one of our meals was very good. I was very hypiglycemic by this point and so I ate the french toast that was completely uncooked inside. At first I wasn't thrilled that the bread was considerably smaller than it used to be until i bit into it to find cold wet mush. I should not have eaten it at all. My friend had ordered a patty melt - medium which should be light pink in the center. It was bloody red. She sent it back and about 20 min later it came back exavtly the same. She sent it back again. Another 20 minutes later it came back well done and with spices in the meat that made the meat taste lousy. So now she had a burger that wass over cooked and tasted bad. She didnt gat to eat because by that time we were done. I wish i had turned back the french toast. I kept hoping with every bite it might be cooked. Not one bite was cooked. Not even one. Being hypoglycemic I felt like I would lose my cool if I didnt eat something so I ate. It turns out the place had been bought and the new owner really didnt care. We got to talk to the brother of the new owner who only said that the place has been very busy and that should speak to the quality. He couldnt care less about our experience. All I have to say is that they are going to be losing a lot of money having to replace meals and once people find out about the sudden drop in quality of the food, those peeople that have been filling the place will not be returning as we wont be either. We refuse to go somewhere that the owners could care less about their patrons.

My partner got the corner beef. Each sandwich got a complimentary chocolate chip cookie. The cookie was so soft and delicious. I loved my sandwich. Typically, most Jewish places would have sauerkraut in the sandwich but this place used Swiss coleslaw instead. I actually liked the coleslaw cause it brought some sweetness to the sandwich. We also got 2 potato latkes. They were cold so we warmed them up before we ate. They were okay. The pastries looked so good, so we grabbed 2 tea biscuits and a mish mash rye bread. The bread had everything bagel seasoning and just came out from the oven. It was so hearty and well seasoned. Overall, we really liked this place and the staff were so nice.

This place is within walking distance of my office so we get this as a lunch option quite often!…read moreI've only had their food catered so my review does not include anything about the store itself. I've only tried their turkey sandwiches, mainly the turkey club on toasted challah bread. Mmmmmmm...the toasted challah bread is DA BOMB and the sandwich is a pretty decent size. It includes a pickle spear (the skin on the pickle is a little tough BUT it's the kind of pickle I like much better than the super fermented, sour, very radioactive yellow kinds). Their pickles are only nominally sour, just salty enough and very crispy! The chocolate chip cookie that comes with the sandwich order is about the worst choco chip cookie I've ever had. They are thin, stone hard, too sweet, stale and pale looking. I hope their other bakery goods selection is better! So in summary, sandwiches = good, choco chip cookies = bad, pickles = good Prices are on the high side for what you get but you can't beat the location!

Bialy's Bagels is a small, no frills, budget friendly bagel shop. It's a pick up location only, no…read moretables/table-side service available. You'll find interesting bagel flavors here (such as egg, cinnamon cranberry, and onion) and merch (tees, hoodies, Mish Mosh seasoning, greeting cards, and stickers). My order: - Asiago Bagel - Toasted with Smokie Salmon Schmear ($5) - Bagel was over toasted, dry, and too salty. Schmear was more like lightly whipped cream cheese, not flavorful. Barely there salmon is the best way to describe it. - Cinnamon Cranberry Bagel with Brown Sugar Cinnamon Schmear ($5) - Bagel tasted like plain bagel. Schmear very light on flavor. - Mish Mosh Bagel ($2) - Plain, not toasted. It's their version of everything bagel. I ordered this bagel because I overheard it being a popular choice while waiting for my order. It's way too salty, and I love salt. It didn't taste freshly made this morning and tasted not fully made inside. - Coffee ($2.50 for 2 small coffees): Flavorless and barely warm coffee. The menu is pretty well outlined on multiple signs at checkout. It clearly indicates up charges and premium topics. If you purchase bagels dozen, you'll get one bagel for free. Other options are sammies, bialy wheels, and bialy sticks. Most customers ordered baker dozen during my visit. Service: Service was alright. I felt a lot of pressure to order (especially as the first timer). Other guests were pretty rushed too. Checkout did not make much sense too. If you order a dozen bagels, they'll take your order in line. If you order a single bagel with schmear or sandwiches, you must go to the checkout counter and repeat your entire order. Service was quick, my order was up quickly and all customers were addressed in a timely manner. Parking: Parking lots are available in the front and the back of the store. The bagel shop is in a little strip mall area. If you're looking for a wallet-friendly bagel, this is the place to be. If you're looking for bold flavors or more standard bagel experience, it's probably best to venture out. I unfortunately personally didn't enjoy any part of my meal but appreciated the low prices.

Under the previous owners, the food and service were consistently excellent, which is why we made the trip. The selections have been drastically cut. The quality has noticeably declined. The food lacks the flavor and care it once had, the prices are higher and the service feels less attentive. It's disappointing to see such a great place lose what made it special. I hope the new management can make improvements, but for now, it's just not the same experience we used to enjoy.
