Flo's Mideast Bistro Bagels - Monroe

Great little family own shop all fresh made. Since fresh made everything you do have to wait a little but being a cook as well you appreciate the time in to get the food just right

Great owner! They always have a good selection of tasty bagels.

I am so happy that we have a unique alternative to our pizzeria-laden area. Falafel and gyro are very good- you will need a fork and knife to eat the enormous gyro. But I've been mostly busy trying all the different items that you don't find everywhere. I ordered shakshuka, for instance- I had to Google it to find out what it is and I am glad I did! Their cold salads are wonderful- everything is homemade, I can heartily recommend the baba ganoush (one of the best I've ever had- I order it every time), fool mademas, the roasted cauliflower and tahini, and the creamy feta and roast pepper dip is to die for. Grape leaves are big and tasty. Add the fact that the owner is a great fellow and the prices are very reasonable- $5 gyro fries lunch special, two cold salads with two warm pitas for $7- and you have a real winner.

What a gem of a place! My brother ordered some breakfast from here that was delivered through Door Dash and my daughter ordered a bagel. I tasted some and was immediately a fan of their perfectly textured bite that a real bagel should possess.. slightly chewy... you know what I mean. And this place has it. My grandfather got a sausage and egg sandwich on a roll which he raved about being top of his list good... that means a lot coming from an almost 80 year old whose had a lot of sammies in his life. LOL. Fast forward to this weekend, I decided to take a trip there with my 8 year old. Located in a strip mall, you'd drive right past, but you really should stop in. Even just to have conversation with the really nice owner, Elliott. He told us all about being from Brooklyn and what prompted him to open up a Mediterranean spot that happens to serve delicious bagels! I can't wait to go back and try said food... maybe some grape leaves with a bagel on the side. Hey, I'm sure it works!!

Hidden gem. Unique sundries along with the bagels and Middle Eastern food. And the owner was very hospitable
