Their food is always very fresh. Their bagels are like no other I’ve had in NJ. The owner Frank is always very cheery and willing to make you pretty much anything you want. The only reason I don’t give it 5 stars is because they are a little pricey.

Was here first time, ridge-road bagel was closed :/and Ciao opens an hour longer. Awesome lox sandwich in town: P yum! Tho mine got regular onion instead red :/with integrants and freshness of it, sure its best around town. Fresh strawberry cream cheese was awesome too just wish it was bit less sweet Hope they had low-fat or soy cream cheese as well, but enough variety and freshness for jersey Owner surely have passion for what hes doing. Making all these cream cheeses fresh, in house. Hope the bagel was more soft. But glad they have muti-grain bagel Heard they have huge breakfast wraps with four eggs in it, shall try them next time. (So bagel is more fresh and soft in ridge-road but homemade cream cheese is the gem here)

Came here just because of all the positive reviews and was in the mood for a breakfast wrap. First off coming in they give you a very welcoming vibe almost like family and I love that I didn’t feel like a customer being sold. I ordered a Eggs Whites, Cheese And Turkey Bacon Wrap and it looked so perfect I didn’t want to eat and mess it up lol. I have to say it was flawless now I have to come back because the menu has a lot of things I would like to try. Anyone who skeptical about the 5 stars I say you will not be disappointed based on my experience and there will be many to come.

I love this place. I go often while on my way to work or a couple of my coworkers and I order lunch when we can. Food is always the best, and service is always extraordinary. The owner makes you feel like a friend not just a customer who is supporting his business, he genuinely cares about his customers, his food, and his business.

I love this deli, they have an awesome selection of wraps. I love my egg wraps for breakfast! The owner is always so nice and friendly when I come in to pick up. They always get the order right and aren’t rushing me out(unlike many places in NJ). I usually call ahead and order to pick it up. Sometimes there isn’t parking out front, which is the only thing I dislike about coming here — but it’s definitely worth it and truthfully the best bagel/deli place near Rutherford. They have a TV and a few café tables if you want to sit down and have a quick lunch. I’m not sure about wifi but I will check next time I’m there!

Definitely the best bagel place i have been to. Bagels are fresh and fresh fruits on cream cheese is the best touch to my bagel. Will make a trip to east rutherford just for this place.

Always like finding a local bagel spot when I travel for work. This place didn’t disappoint! Firstly, they have the whole wheat everything bagel which is awesome. I was in the mood for vegetable cream cheese and was pleasantly surprised: fresh veggies shredded right in front of me into the cream cheese! Made the bagel all the better! The gentleman who helped me was very courteous and friendly. I’m a fan. Will totally stop back here again!

My go-to bagel place in town, Ciao Bagel is reliably good, fast, and courteous! I’m a big fan of their whole wheat everything bagel, which is more of a rare find in the bagel world than I’d like. Their breakfast sandwiches are well proportioned and not too greasy. They also have a wide range of cream cheeses if that’s how you roll. Finally, it seems like a family-run business; the folks who work there are friendly and professional, which is quickly turning me into a regular!

Bagels were not the best in the area. The texture of both the everything and French toast bagels were too dense and not fresh.

I just moved to the area and Unilocaled ‘coffee’ and this place came up first and I’m glad it did. I walked over and got a coffee which was super hot and tasty and ordered a bagel with scallion cream cheese. The cream cheese was better than other bagel store, it seemed like they made it, not premade which was nice and the bagels were perfect. I’m assuming the guy who rang me up was the owner, he was very nice, offered to toast my bagel which most places don’t do for bagels with CC but I appreciated it. He also told me they’re open 7 days a week and suggested I take a picture of their wrap menu which looked good. Will definitely be my new go to bagel spot.

We were planning on traveling to Brooklyn bagel in Queens where we always find the best bagels and fresh squeezed orange juice. However when we saw the traffic on the bridge we decided to find someplace local and much to our surprise this place surpassed Brooklyn bagel. The service was great and the fresh squeezed orange juice was very fresh and the bagels were great. I think what surprised me the most was when I order the strawberry cream cheese it was fresh cut strawberries in the cream cheese that he put in once I ordered. This place has an authentic Mexican menu and breakfast menu that we will have to go back and try. Lastly, the guy who waited on us was really friendly and you could tell he took a passion in his work.

Staff is incredibly friendly and inviting. They have tons of unique cream cheese spreads which are all homemade like spinach, jalapeños, fresh sliced strawberries which is phenomenal! Has 2 tables if you wish to dine in and tons of deli food options.

This is a very comfortable deli spot. They have everything for sandwiches! They use boars head meat brand which is great and romain lettuce. I had Taylor ham, egg white with cheese on an everything bagel delish! I will definitely be back for the Mexican menu! Owner is super friendly, bathroom is clean! Parking is fairly easy to find! See you soon!

My FAVORITE place to go for breakfast, and even lunch! The food is absolutely delicious, fairly priced, and they aren’t shy with their servings. I live with two roommates and we are always there saturday mornings. Bagels, sandwhiches, empanadas oh my! Everything is just so darn good. The owner is also one of the nicest guy around. he works so hard and truly cares for his customers. He always wants everyone to be satisfied and such a friendly guy to chat with while waiting for your food. i like to take my food to go but there are a few tables if you want to eat there. I highly suggest going to this place :)

Stopped in to grab some breakfast and a sandwich before I had to get on a plane today. Great bagels, good home fries, and super helpful staff. They put all the condiments on the side so my sandwich wouldn’t get soggy and I’m very excited for it! It looks delicious. Overall exactly what you want from a cute, family run, bagel shop!

This is our go-to breakfast sandwich place. I’ll usually get a Taylor Ham, egg & cheese and recently they’ve had chorizo which is AWESOME on a roll with egg and cheese. The eggs are never greasy or over portioned like a lot of places and the cheese is always perfectly melted. The lunch sandwiches are also great. I get the New York which has pastrami, roast beef, cheddar, fried onions and spicy brown mustard. If you don’t mind getting your hands a little messy, you need this sandwich. Recently they’ve also added a Mexican menu, which is a more than welcome addition. The cemita is excellent and huge on a nice crusty roll and topped with fresh chipotle peppers. This one also gets messy, and it’s worth all the napkins. My new favorite is their tacos. They’re served traditionally on two corn tortillas and topped with fresh cilantro and onions. The spicy green salsa served on the side adds an extra and delicious kick to the savory carnitas meat. I can’t wait to try more of the new Mexican menu!
