Unquestionably my favorite restaurant for brunch style food. The best eggs Benedict I've ever had. Pickled herring is excellent. The service is great. I'm not from NYC, but I visit periodically. This is always a priority stop when I visit.

This is a busy cafe. If you get there at a busy time you have to wait. The food is very good quality and tasty. The cold brew is very good also. Highly recommend it.

Loved eating here! There was a 30 min wait but the place is so charming, like going back in time, and the food was great. We shared the classic board and some latkes. I’m not huge on latkes but the lox and bagel were great. Would love to return and try more of the menu. Highly recommend.

got a bagel and lox to go and it was a solid dish. the bagel itself had that classic dense and chewy texture I would expect. the lox, cream cheese and other toppings were also tasty. however, nothing wow’d me and i’m inclined to try other bagels in the city

WOW.
so worth it. the bagel was really something special. we ordered online and picked up our bagels and then ate them on the street because there wasn’t anywhere to sit which was kind of a bummer.
ordering online is pretty slick, however.

Russ and Daughters cafe was on my wishlist since we saw in #somebodyfeedphil NYC episode. I have to say the hype is real, fresh bagels, awesome somked salmon sandwiches and fantastic cream cheese. Everyone in my family enjoyed their breakfast here. Its a must try if you are in NYC.

My sister said this place had one of the best bagels and during our weekend trip we didn't get a chance to visit until we were about to leave NYC. We checked out of our hotel with our luggage and walked 5 minutes to the subway, sat on the subway for 30 minutes and walked another 15, let's just say we were committed to trying this bagel place! We arrive in an area of litter and broken down bicycles and find that the business isn't letting people inside. When I walked in he suggested I step outside and scan a small QR code and order online, and can bring it out. After the trouble, we order a $15 and a $20 bagel. It's brought out after a few minutes and we fortunately are able to walk to a nearby coffee shop, order coffee and sit with our newfound bagel treasures. The first bite is hard to break off, tough and chewy almost, like leather. As my teeth become acclimated to this mysterious bread texture, my hunger takes over and I complete my mission. Was the bagel good? I think so. I would have liked an open dining room or an explanation of why it wasn't available. I would have liked to have placed an order with a person and not a phone. Was it worth the extra trip? absolutely not.

Currently take out only but highly delicious! Well-prepared fish bagels and other creations harkening to Jewish traditions. Really loved the pastrami salmon bagel.
