The big, roomy 160-seat restaurant is more deli than bagel shop — specifically a New York neighborhood "kosher-style" deli. It serves soups, salads, Hebrew National hot dogs, and all manner of smoked fish and deli meats; matzoh brei; challah French toast; delectably sweet, vanilla-infused homemade blintzes; thick wedges of noodle pudding made the old-fashioned way — with a maraschino cherry inside; bakery items such as rugelach, challahs, babkas, and coffeecakes; egg creams and Dr. Brown's inimitable celery seed-flavored "Cel-Ray" soda; and, of course, nova or lox and a schmeer of cream cheese upon beautifully bronzed bagels, hand-rolled by a Haitian bagelmeister!
