Ricci's New York Bagels - Gastonia

I met with the owner today and had an amazing Bagel sandwich he is the nicest person around! Great food definitely will go back!

These are the best bagels I've ever had! There's something incredibly special about them. They're crunchy on the outside and warm and soft on the inside. The everything bagel is packed with toppings on both sides. Pair it with cream cheese and coffee for the perfect breakfast. It completely outshines bagels from Panera Bread. This place is a genuine New York deli and bagel shop. It’s a bit of a trek for me, but it’s definitely worth the drive!

I had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich, and it was absolutely fantastic! Having lived in New York for a while, I truly appreciate the way someone from there has brought a taste of the Big Apple down to the South! Ricci is a wonderful owner who genuinely wants everyone to feel at home!

The chicken cordon bleu is absolutely amazing! I’m not usually a fan of macaroni salad, but theirs is really delicious. I love New York, and dining here feels just like I’m in the Big Apple. The new staff is still getting the hang of things, but they’re doing a great job. I will definitely return!

I ordered the Lox Supreme Bagel, and my wife had the Chicken Cordon Bleu sandwich. Both dishes were incredibly tasty. I definitely plan to return to this restaurant, perhaps more often than I should!
