    Best bagels I've had in my entire life. I ordered though DoorDash so I can give you an experience of the interior of the place. But the bagels look phenomenal. The bagels tasted amazing. I order the poke, egg sando, and bulgogi bagels and they weee amazing from the first bite to the very end. This business is an easy 5/5 stars. I want to go back already when I'm in SoCal again. Will definitely be back my go too spot whenever I'm in SoCal again in the OC area.

    The ahi tuna on the poké bagel was so fresh. I couldn't believe how good it was considering fish is not what they're known for. I'd argue the quality is better than some actual poké shops. I have to say though that a bagel is not the best vehicle to eat it. All of it fell onto the plate so I pretty much ate it with a fork and then took a bite of my bagel. The lox is different from your traditional bagel in that it's citrus cured. On top of that it has yuzu kosho pickled onion and lemon schmear so the citrus flavor is quite bold. It wasn't particularly my favorite and it was on the expensive side for what it was. There were plenty of seats indoors and outdoors considering it was a Monday at noon and most people were ordering to-go. The workers were nice and it's pretty spacious. Parking is available in the nearby lot and they validate for 90 minutes.

    My sister was telling me about this spot, noting that it was quite popular. We were in the area and we decided to stop by. Getting there was not really an issue, parking was fairly easy. You can park in the underground parking garage, grab a ticket. You can get a validation stub from inside which you use when exiting. I think the validation lasts for 90 minutes, in case you wanted to grab a bagel and chill for a while. Place was very close to the parking garage on the ground level. It seemed bright and open, modern and unique. They had some specialty items on the right hand side that you could purchase. (coffee, balsamic, other unique selected items) Their menu consisted of different kind of bagels, with different kinds of schmears. They also had some specialty items like the lox bagel, pepperoni pizza bagel, Kbbq, fruit, poke, smash burger. They definitely had some unique flavors at this place. I ended up getting a furikake bagel with green onion cream cheese. 4/5 3 cookies: Ube Blueberry Snickerdoodle: 4/5 This one had the best chewiness to it. Yuzu Poppyseed Snickerdoodle: 4/5 The yuzu flavor was delicious. Salted Caramel: 5/5 This one had big chunks of chocolate and the sea salt was perfect. For the furikake bagel, it was not bad, it seemed jammed packed outside with seeds etc. It was good, but it didn't quite make me think of furikake. I expected more seaweed. Do I think this is the best bagel I've had? No, but all of it put together was tasty. The green onion schmear was really good. It was packed with a lot of slivers of green onion. It was served toasted, the schmear was melty and good. If you think this is just a sprinkle of green onions, it is not. If you love green onion, you'll enjoy this one. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Food: 4/5

    Decent bagels but the real star is their cream cheese. I really enjoyed how creative they were especially with the ube, yuzu and fried chicken. Their chicken bake was very similar to the Costco chicken bake with more chicken. However, for the price point, the Costco chicken bake is a more economical deal. Very nice staff and they validate 90 minutes. You do have to park in the structure as it's in those business complexes. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

    Very cool and unique selection of bagels available, and very yummy. You order at the counter and then sit down if there is room to sit, very crowded and at a very busy location. The food does take awhile to come out but it's worth the wait, the poke was amazing 10/10 fresh and tasty, the birria bagel 9/10 such a good idea and the flavors went well together the strawberry matcha looked basic but tasted really good, a bit strawberry forward but still a decent matcha flavor. Want to go back and try all the other bagels!

    This was my first time visiting and it was great ! The man taking our orders was very helpful when we had questions about the bagels and schmears. The poke bagel was so good! We got it on a furikake bagel with the sesame shoyu poke. It had so much poke on it! I also loved the cucumber and the imitation crab on it. I have never had anything like this. The tomato bagel was also good. I got it with the pista pesto schmear. The schmear was amazing, it complimented the tomato really well. I also appreciated how the tomato was seasoned and I liked the thinly sliced onions on it. I would definitely like to go back to try different things!

    Nice outside patio for you to enjoy bagels

    First time here, you can park in the parking structure and they validate your ticket for you! It was a little hard to find due to many of the business signages being harder to see against the building color, but we found it, woohoo! We ordered 2 lox bagels on everything, 1 asian chicken salad on everything, 1 pb&j on cinnamon raisin, and 1 pepperoni pizza bagel - Lox: as some reviewers have mentioned, the citrus cure seemed to overpower the lox flavor/left us wanting more prevalent smoked salmon flavor. Capers would've been a great garnish. Tomatoes were fresh and juicy, pickled onions add a punch - Asian Chicken Salad: chicken was cooked great (not over or rubbery at all!), we all shared this one and we all were wanting more allium flavors or maybe even more salt- cilantro, more onions diced in, more green onions diced in, would've REALLY made the flavors pop. 2 friends out us 4 ranked this the least favorite. - PB&J: the surprise winner, it was delicious and really hit the spot! A friend was worried the cinnamon raisin would be way too sweet but nope, she said it was balanced and greatly made - Pepperoni Pizza Bagel: LOVED the crispy pepperoni cups. Ranch dip is a must and the hot honey was a favorite among our friends, I opted to enjoy it with just ranch. It made me want red pepper flakes + parmesan cheese so this was also a great bagel. - Bagels were on the lighter side which I personally like because I can enjoy cream cheese + toppings more. Many bagelries I've been to have thick bagels, which is great, but I get stuffed from all the dough (lol!), so I enjoyed the lighter bagels here, but they did seem a little over toasted, as in crisper/harder. Really wanted to share our honest experience here with the bagel flavors as Rise has gotten so popular. As few have mentioned, for the price, more exceptional flavor was anticipated, so it was a true 3.5/5 experience for me personally. They also do not allow any modifications whatsoever at all. We got there late, they close at 2 pm, but they let us know we can stay to eat, but we didn't want to keep them waiting due to us late stragglers so we went outside to eat and it was beautiful and really nice! Ample seating, beautiful view, just the occasional water sprinkling from the fountain(?) got on us and our bagels lol!

    Softest bagel breads ever! Unlike traditional bagel sandwich where the exterior is on the harder side, their bread base is proofed to perfection. Ratio of bread to filling is just right, flavors fit exactly to the names. Portions are great and overall presentation is amazing! Plenty seating inside and air conditioning was nice during noon. Staffs are welcoming and polite. If you love breakfast bagels, you must try out rise bagels Parking: park at centerview parking structure behind the building, parking validation for 90 minutes upon purchase

    Chicken salad, poke, lox, egg salad
    Miranda C.

    Very unique and tasty bagel options. I've never had poke or chicken salad on a bagel and i was pleasantly surprised at how good it tasted! The bagel texture is also soft and chewy. I would definitely come back to try the other menu items. The service is quick and the workers are friendly. Good amount of seating inside and outside. It's located inside an office building area. FYI- they validate parking if you park in the parking structure right next to the restaurant.

    Kbbq
    Linh P.

    Came on a sat afternoon & there was a pretty long line. A worker came by to give us a sample of pog juice which I thought was nice! We got the Egg Sando & Kbbq. Both were so good! I do wish the Egg Sando had a bit more salt, but that's just my preference. I loved the flavor of the kbbq, the kimchi & cucumber gave the sandwich a nice tangy taste. They also offer parking validation, so make sure to ask!

    Smash Burger
    Liz T.

    Absolute game-changer for the OC bagel scene! I am completely obsessed with Rise Bagels. They are completely reinventing what a bagel can be. The hand-rolled dough is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. I tried their viral Tokyo 7/11 egg salad bagel with a jammy egg, and it blew my mind! The flavor combinations are so creative and absolutely delicious --especially the KBBQ, the smash burger, and the strawberry bagel. I couldn't choose a favorite; I would honestly get them all again, and I also want to try the rest of their menu as well as their desserts! The ingredients are clearly super fresh and high-quality and the staff is beyond friendly, attentive, and wonderful. Do yourself a favor and get a guava drink or matcha drink too! Highly recommend checking them out. You won't be disappointed. The location is gorgeous to sit outside and it's super aesthetic and clean inside. I was catching up with a friend, and they were so sweet and didn't rush is out. They validate parking which is super nice, but I was actually able to park in the free visitor 2 hour parking without a problem on a Saturday afternoon.

    Lox bagel
    Lucia L.

    Talk about ba-GOALS! As someone who's tried quite a bit of the LA bagel scene, I was so excited to try @risebagels - the newest concept from Chef John Park and Jeff Tran, and you can definitely tell the love and care they pour into their business with their thoughtful menu and personable customer service. Their menu specializes in small-batch, hand-rolled, boiled bagels baked fresh daily, with creative takes on cream cheese schmears (including ube, tom yum curry, yuzu, chili crisp and more!), as well as innovative, elevated bagel sandwiches. My favorites were their poke and lox bagels, which feature VERY fresh fish, as well as their new birria bagel sandwich, comes with birria, Fritos, taco toppings, and even consome to dip! Despite just opening half a year ago, Rise is already making waves -- recently winning a (in my opinion) very well-deserved Best of the West and Most Creative at Bagel Fest! Definitely make sure to check them out if you're in the Irvine area for some of the BEST bagels I've had in OC!

    1. The bulgogi bake is unique and delicious! I also love the flavors of the cookie! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! The interior has a lot of space! 3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! The bake was ready after 10 mins! 4. There are parking structures! 5. There are outdoor and indoor tables! There are a lot of tables! Note: There is a restroom available for customers! Photo: Bulgogi Bake and Ube Blueberry Snickerdoodle Cookie

    Very little lox on a bagel. What a rip off!

    They closed Feb 15…read more We came here Feb 13. They had a paper on a podium written about their closure. And I truly believe that they are not really made out to be a full-service restaurant as much as I like their dedication and drive. I had a reservation at 7 pm. I checked in at 6:45 pm. At 7:25 pm, they brought us in and did not have a table ready for us. They made a table then after a table left 15 minutes later, they rearranged us. I do not understand why you offer reservations if you will not actually honor the system. Around 8 pm, we asked if we could order as they had only brought water. Listen I understand. You're closing soon. You only had 1 server for the entire restaurant the weekend of Valentines. You have to go lean on the busiest last weekend ..? I don't actually understand. When all came to, they were not offering dessert because "they were saving it for Valentine's Day". No notification about when their kitchen closed and no asks if anybody wanted to order for to-go. On top of that, everyone did not have free parking and had to pay upon exit even with validation. You will do great as a ghost kitchen since the food was good and everyone enjoyed it. If you come back as a full service, I would seriously reconsider how you do business.

    I came for brunch and was underwhelmed by the slow service and dry, bland food…read more While our server was friendly, the food took forever to come out and we barely interacted with any staff after our initial order. The brunch menu was limiting, with only a few egg dishes, sandwiches, and breads. The French toast and waffle were nearly $20 each despite the small portions and standard toppings. *French Toast: the worst item of the meal. The bread had no flavor or egginess and left a strange sandy mouthfeel. The interior was so dry that it soaked up all the moisture in my mouth. A poor showing for a classic French toast. *Waffle: the batter was slightly sweetened but felt too dense. The fruit was fresh, although nothing about the toppings or overall quality stood out. *Steak Frites: hanger steak topped with chimichurri and fries. It was supposed to come with bernaise sauce, but I did not receive any. The steak leaned closer to rare rather than the medium rare I asked for. However, it was still tender, and the chimichurri was vibrant and herbaceous. I wished more sauce had been applied, as the dish was a bit dry. The fries were decent, though I would have preferred more crunch. Given the long wait, I expected much more from the dishes in terms of flavor and execution. I was disappointed by how flavorless and dry everything was.
