At Sadelle's in SoHo, indulge in a lavish display of housemade bagels, towering smoked fish, and over-the-top brunch dishes in a chic setting.
"Bagels, lox, and a schmear get theatrically updated at Major Food Group’s expensive take on an un-kosher Jewish appetizing restaurant. Seed-crusted bagels are stacked tall on wooden dowels for the dramatically plated spreads of salmon, sable, sturgeon, and whitefish salad. There’s an entire caviar section, available with scrambled eggs, latkes, lobster Benedict, or as a supplement to any dish. Other options include sticky buns or egg scrambles and sandwiches incorporating smoked salmon and salami." - Robert Sietsema, Melissa McCart
"“I don't know how they do that french toast. It's almost like it's medium rare. You know with steaks how they can do Pittsburgh-style, where it's crunchy on the outside and rare on the inside? That’s kind of how Sadelle’s does their french toast. It's insane.”" - brennan carley
"A go-to place for a classic bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon combo." - Nancy DePalma
"Might as well have a smoked salmon tower in your apartment. Delivery and takeout available - call or order online." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, arden shore, matt tervooren
"Sadelle’s, from the team behind the impossible to get into Carbone and Torrisi, is not a classic New York bagel shop. It’s more like a big-budget simulation of one, and it’s a great time. If you’re planning an afternoon in Soho, start with brunch here. Get a tower of smoked fish, try the French toast, and keep an eye out for B-list celebrities. Reservations are helpful, but you can also just stop by and put your name in for a table. The wait shouldn’t be more than an hour." - bryan kim, will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah, neha talreja
