Bagel City South (Boca Raton)
***** Bagel City South–6006 SW 18th Street, Boca Raton, Florida 33433–(561) 393-5383
Bagel City South makes some of the best New York styled bagels and bialys in South Florida. The stuff is made the old fashioned way, that being hand rolled, boiled and then oven baked.
The joint is open 7 days a week for breakfast and lunch. Great place for appetizing, burgers, deli, eggs and of course those fantastic bagels/bialys.
Sassy waitresses and talkative countermen add to the New York flavor. This is a real good one.
I love Bagel City.
Top notch bagels.
Love their tuna.
Hopping waitresses.
Love the hustle bustle of the store.
Fun countermen.
hey jeff, they recently had a fire.
by the way, i saw two different tv news shows about how dirty the place is.
Bagel City makes great bagels. They are as good as the bagels made in NYC. They boil and then bake them, that’s the proper way to make a bagel, not steam them like most places in Florida do. Bagel City’s food is okay. Nothing great but decent enough bagl place type of food. No match for way Beyond Bagel in Boca Raton or Sage in Hallandale but decent enough.
The restaurant had a fir a few months ago. Hopefully it will soon reopen because there aren’t very many bagel places in the area where it is located.
Bagel City makes excellent bagels and bialys.
Hi,
Bagel City South is back, looking great and making the best bagels in Florida again! The Grand Re-Opening brought out all those who love this amazing breakfast and lunch spot. I just love their cream cheese selections they are the best. With the Jewish holidays coming, we better get our orders in..
Some of the best bagels. Other food is okay but the bagels are top shelf.
I would completely disagree about the bagels. They are mushy and have no flavor. And the food and service in the place is so bad it’s beyond redemption.
They discriminate serving young children. Watched a man with his daughter continually get ignored while all others were seated. The man spoke to the owner who did nothing. He then left with his child. Unbelievable.
I think that Bagel City makes some of the best bagels. The rest of their food isn’t very good. I buy bagels there but don’t get anything else.
Still lousy service and fatty pastrami!
Bagels are ok. I love Nestors all the way around. Better food!
I love this joint’s bagels. They maybe the best in S. Florida. Their food is passable, nothing great, but nothing terrible. The bagles alone are worth a visit.
best bagels around.
joint could use a good cleaning.
some of the best bagels in fl.
rest of the food is so so.
Bagel City makes excellent bagels. Their food is okay but as far as bagels go they are the best around.
got to agree
terrific bagels
rest of the food is average
We got there 10 min before closing time. They should have told us how we’d be treated; if they would have told us, we would have gone in a flash.
It was actually one of the WORST deli experiences we’ve ever had. I hope I don’t get food poisioning because some of the food tasted slimy. The waitress (Fred– and very sarcastic and nasty) and busers — people who were “literally surrounding” our table (we were the last 2 people there but were rushing through the “lunch” — if you could call it that. They stood OVER US and our table to get us to hurry. It was 10 min to 3 and they wanted to close. One bus man came by when I was still eating and tried to take my plate!!! Some guy and his child came in and the waitress yelled to him, “Hey, don’t sit down. We’re closed. Jeez…” OMG! And the owner was sitting there reading the paper and saw the whole incident. Did he do anything? Absolutely not. I guess that’s why people can get away with it. We finally left l/2 way through our very nasty and only partially edible food. Slimy lox. Veggies were slimy too. One order was wrinkled “sausage” and the coffee was cold. I told the owner and he just stared at me. Could not care a bit. Wonder how he stays open? REALLY?
I guess he’s accustomed to complaints. He should have given us our money back. I would have. It felt very dirty to both of us too.
Would I recommend you give it a try? Puleeez. Not even my worst enemy should try this one. (I never compain — I just couldn’t let this go by.)
Bagels are terrific.
Rest of the food not the best.
Bagel City South has fresh New York Style bagels that taste great. I also love it’s pastry.
Top shelf bagels.
Rest of the food not worth the trip.
they make terrific bagels. the deli food etc is just passable.
you got this one perfectly pegged.
some of the best bagels in all of s fl.
jeff, very good bagels, bialys, flagels. their appetizing is ok but not worth a special trip.
Bagel City in Boca Raton makes excellent bagels.
I would rate them as the best that Ive had in Florida.
I think I know bagels as Im originally from Brooklyn and have had bagels all over the NYC area.
Bagel City’s bagels are just like the real NYC ones.
Terrific bagels.
Rest of the food is horrendous.
Place is also filthy.
My exact sentiments.
Terrific bagels.
The rest is a disaster.
Excellent bagels.
Rest of the food fair at best.
bagels are real ny bagels.
food is ok but nothing to run there for.
Jeff
Some great bagels.
Store needs a good cleaning .
Love their bagels.
took out a load of food over the christmas holiday and everything was lousy.
Visted for lunch and enjoyed the bagels and the other dishes we tried (melon & cottage cheese; chopped herring). Better than several other local places that rate as average.
Bagels are good.
The crowd looks like they are in a nursing home.
Bagels are best around.
Rest of the food meh!
They make fabulous bagels.
Food is ok but nothing to go out of your way for.
I agree.
Their bagels are the best around. The rest of their food, meh.
Definitely some of the best bagels in south Florida.

Been down here 26 years. Originally from the Bronx
I have eaten in tons of bagel joints from Miami to Jupiter.
Seriously, I think that Bagel City’s bagels have them all beat.
They make them the right way, hard on the outside and soft on the inside.
