    The bread bowls soups are my favorite but are always out of stock during the evenings on any given day. It’s currently 4pm. They close at 9pm. How they always out? I’ve only manage to get them during lunch. Food is good but I can never enjoy a warm cozy evening with the bread bowl. Make another batch in the afternoon if freshness is what they’re worried about.

    Kudos to the GM of this location for fabulous and thoughtful service with my delivery order. At the last minute, I added some bagels to my dinner order to have for tomorrow, and when the order arrived, there was an apology note about the Everything bagels being not up to standard and overdone, and small gift with the order to make up for it. That is incredible customer service. (Oh, and my salad and soup — and even the extra toasty bagel I tried — were all fresh and delicious.)
