Bageletto — Restaurant in San Francisco

Bagel was fine. It was fresh but still missing that signature chewy yet also crisp crust. Schmear was ungodly expensive for what you get, like $4 and you get this tiny little sliver on your bagel, and this is of course after paying $3 and change the bagel itself. At least they filled the bagel hole with some cream cheese.

Even for a simple order it took me too long to receive my food after ordering even though I was the only one there.

So why did I wait 15 minutes for an untoasted bagel with plain cream cheese? Maybe they were milking the cow to make the cream cheese. And there’s something unsettling about the fact there’s a $22 chopped cheese on the menu. I don’t regret the visit but after seeing how the owner responded to this review I will certainly not be back, surely good news for everyone.

And no, there were not twenty orders ahead of me as the owner claims, this was a quiet Monday afternoon, February 24 around 2pm to be precise, long before their Chronicle piece or whatever newspaper covered them. I was quite literally the only person there besides the two folks who had already been served. Really no excuse for a fifteen minute wait for such a simple order.

But with a reply like yours, it’s obvious you think your feet smell nice. With such an attitude, I’d expect a better bagel, truthfully.

It’s really great you’re sourcing um, ground beef?, from New Jersey????, as opposed to anywhere else in a 2500 mile radius. I’m guessing New Jersey is somehow impressive when you need to figure out a way to do absolutely anything to what is literally a struggle meal to justify a $22 price tag in a review. However it’s clear that the provenance of your, um, ground beef, is not important enough to share with actual customers since it’s not on your menu.

Anyways, maybe learn how to actually put schmear on a bagel and it won’t take fifteen minutes next time, and then nobody will have time to think about the expensive bagel they bought, and so they won’t even think to write a review about how they waited an inordinate amount of time for a mediocre bagel with a paucity of cream cheese. Or maybe pay your artisan to make your artisanal cream cheese faster or more impressive or something, I shouldn’t claim know what the 15 minute bottleneck is to put some topping on a bagel. Maybe a business 101 class is in order.

And I was happy leaving three stars, because again, the bagel is just fine. But I changed it to one because you clearly need a public relations class too. Then some therapy so you can stop being so precious about your just fine bagel. Or go the other way and learn to make a good bagel so the attitude is warranted. Or maybe simply hire someone who is actually good at customer service, it’s clearly a huge gap in your skill set as owner. There are a lot of paths forward here....

If you’re in the mood for a bagel with a little something extra that hits all the right notes, this place is the place to be! From the moment you step through the door, the warm, cozy atmosphere wraps around you, and the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bagels fills the air. The variety is impressive—whether you’re a fan of the classic plain bagel or looking to try something a little more adventurous.

The staff is always friendly and happy to recommend their favorites. The bagels themselves are the real star here—crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, with just the right amount of flavor.

What really sets this place apart, though, is the sense of community. It’s clear that Bageletto isn’t just a shop, it’s the future local favorite that customers will return to time and time again for great food and even better vibes. If you haven’t already, do yourself a favor and give this bagel shop a try—you...

I am a NYer that has sworn off bagels since I moved out here and tried them all and wow are they all bad on the west coast. BUT Bageletto is like a haven in a desert of terrible, non-crunchy outside, mushy bagels that plague the Bay. Not only are Bagelettos bagels and shmears amazing (crunchy outside with soft warm inside) but their sandwiches are straight outta Brooklyn! I got the chop cheese sandwich, and it was one of the best I've ever had in my life-if not the best (yes, I am including the ones I've had in NY); we also got the prime roast sandwich, and it was AMAZING. We loved the bagels so much we bought a dozen to bring to our family in LA (who all originated in NY)-everybody loved them/fought over them. The Calabrian bagel and schmear is also out of this world! Can't speak highly enough about this authentic piece of NY in the...
