| - My third time to Levy's. Today we had lunch.
On my first visit we popped in for bagels and coffee. No lattes, cappuccino, or espresso. BOO! However, the bagels are perfect! Boiled first, as a good bagel should be, creating a lovely outer shell with a chewy center. Toast it, slather with butter and cream cheese and voila! Breakfast of champions. Good coffee too. Admittedly, I was hooked. Went back just days later for another awesome bagel. Stick to the regular cream cheese. The veggie cream cheese dissapointed....really just bell peppers mixed in.
For lunch, I had a half chicken salad sandwich on an everyhting bagel with a "cup" of chicken and brown rice soup and a soda. $13. Served with a delicious pickle too! I use the word "cup," but it was bowl sized if you ask me! The chicken salad is creamy and yummy with big chunks of chicken. No canned or shredded imposters here. The soup was served HOT which makes me happy!
Momma had a turkey reuben on housemade rye bread. Approximately 1 lb. of meat piled high; served with pickle and choice of potato salad or coleslaw. She claims its the best! And I quote, "Deeeeelicious!"
Friend had philly cheesesteak. Wasn't a fan. Bread was good but meat was bland. Expected...shouldn't order an Italian sandwich in a Jewish deli.
We also had 3 raspberry butter cookies. These buttery shortbread treats melt in your mouth!
Service is friendly and attentive but slow. Don't go here if you are in a hurry. Things take a little longer than they should but worth the wait!
Also, Levy's has a big menu. Breakfast with corned beef hash, pancakes and more. Burgers, salads, bagel dogs, lox, knish, perogis and so on...
Can't wait to go back!
