The 14 Best Bagels In Los Angeles

"Smögen Appetizers is a bagel spot for fish lovers. Operating as a permanent pop-up in Sherman Oaks' Vintage Wine + Eats, this weekend-only brunch spot treats its sourdough bagels as elaborate Swedish open-faced sandwiches. The salty housemade cream cheese makes the briny topping options pop, whether it's white fish salad, salty smoked trout roe, or thick slices of hamachi. And if you want a drink at 11am, each bagel has a recommended wine pairing, too. Our lone quibble though is the bagels themselves: sometimes they're crackly and crisp on the outside, sometimes they're tough. Get a good one, though, and your fish-loving heart will grow three sizes." - sylvio martins, arden shore, garrett snyder, cathy park
