"There’s nothing overly fussy about Uncle Stevey’s. It's a straightforward bagel shop run by two former New Yorkers who bake everything in a fancy oven. This counter-service daytime spot serves just under ten varieties, from the traditional to the slightly more adventurous (cheddar hot honey and black & white sesame). You’ll also find the expected bagel shop classics here like smoked fish, egg and cheese sandwiches, and various cream cheese flavors. If you live in El Segundo, add these bagels to your weekly breakfast rotation—if you don’t, make it your breakfast pit stop on the way to the beach. " - nikko duren, garrett snyder
