    Deli Seoul is delicious! Came here after running the OC 1/2 with my friends and it was spectacular. Staff were friendly and attentive. The restaurant is casual with some items being self serve and some the staff provided. Bagels are made fresh and are displayed right next to the kiosk as you order. There are classic options as well as Korean fusions. I highly recommend the steak and eggs on the Jalapeño cheese Bagel. I will definitely be coming back to try more Bagels and combinations.

    What a cute bagel shop! I always love supporting small businesses and I swung by since I saw it was run by a mom and her son. Deli Seoul offers fusion bagels with a Korean twist. Took my mom here after her post-op checkup and while she is not a bagel fan in general--she LOVED every bite of the steak bagel we shared. Was like an elevated bagel breakfast sandwich: tastier, cheesier, and I appreciated the mild kick the spicy mayo gave it. Service was quick, easy, and the space was full of vinyls and good music. Overall, a wonderful bagel shop if you want a great, home-made tasting bagel creation. Will come back to try the lunch menu as that looks delicious as well!

    A few weeks ago, at midnight, I started craving Korean food and Deli Seoul was one of my top three contenders to check out this morning. Unfortunately for them, kimbap, pizza, and bagels are the only things I could tolerate so I came the next day. I got the tofu bowl and three kimbaps. The kimbaps they made fresh and were sooooo good. I also picked up a sweet cinnamon punch since they were out of rice punch. V good. I could actually drink it without throwing up! (Morning sickness. Fun) The tofu bowl lasted me and my LO two meals and was pretty good even after taking it home. What REALLY drives this place for me though is the layout and the service. Theres a legit kids corner so I can't wait to take my LO here next time. When I ordered, they asked for my name and remember it!! Oh! And he even asked if it was my first time and refused to let me pay for my drink until I paid for it. Then mama came out and personally hand me my bag of food. Like... what!?? I immediately texted my sis asking if she'd date him. Oops

    1st time coming here (followed instagram) for our breakfast. Small family business with really sweet Mom & son nicely service. Simple decoration with a little corner for game (teenage) Clean & organized store. Our ordered come out very quick hot & fresh bagels, we're enjoyed it. Their coffee ( 4 flavors to choose) next to a small refrigerator to keep the fresh of cream . I had try vanilla nut & Hawaii Hazelnut both very full flavors for me. Surely I will stop by here more often on next

    I would absolutely recommend this place! It's so cute. I love the vinyls growing up being a hip-hop lover. They have a variety of things on the menu, but the bagels are absolutely delicious! The staff is so friendly and there's plenty of seating area. I've been here twice this week

    First of all, the nice lady (I think the owner) is amazing and super helpful. I tried their seoul steak on dutch crunch bread and it was so good, tastes so fresh and comforting! Their sauce bar is filled especially try their house made gochujang sauce. I really need to come back soon to try their bagels and bowls!

    It is rare that I come across a business that immediately makes me feel like I am family. From the moment I entered, to the time I left, it truly felt like the type of restaurant that the community deeply loves. Deli Seoul is exactly that. It has a properly sized menu (not the kind that tries to do a million things), and does so in a humble yet creative way. This is not the type of place that tries to upsell you, they offer breakfast and lunch options with Korean flavors at fair prices. Delicious and homey. I ended up getting the Seoul Steak and Egg Sandwich (on Egg Everything Bagel). The owner apologized that since it was towards the end of the day, there weren't as many bagel options, but that was understandable. I also ordered the Corn Silk Tea and the owner gave me a sample of it after he asked if I had it before. It was my first time trying the tea so this was greatly appreciated. It tastes similar to a Genmaicha but with a toasted kettle corn flavor. Refreshing on a hot day! While I waited, I noticed how nice the seating area was. There was ample space for customers and it would even be a nice spot to study. The wall decor had tons of records and there were some small couches for extra seating. There was also a bar area with some coffee and condiments. I noticed some sauces and the coffee creamer were kept in a mini fridge which is a nice touch. The owner noticed I was reading the sign about his mom's homemade hot sauce and ran to the back to grab me a fresh bottle to use and my food also came out around the same time. Three customers came in after I placed my order and they seemed like regulars with how they interacted with the owner. I got the same vibe when I waved goodbye and he made sure to refer to me by name. I say all of this because you simply don't get this type of interaction nowadays. The bagel was perfectly toasted, crisp exterior and soft inside. Fluffy eggs. The steak was thinly cut and marinated well. I recommend getting a side of the hot sauce on their counter. It's not very spicy but has great flavor, similar to a gochujang base with a punch of sesame. This shop is located in a large lot with many other businesses. It's right next to The Habit on Harbor Blvd. Plenty of parking. Staff are very sweet. I hope they continue to prosper, and I will continue supporting their small business and telling family and friends about this shop.

    Deli Seoul popped up on my Yelp homepage enough times to pique my interest. A Korean-inspired bagel shop? Heck yes. We stopped by early on a Saturday morning. The line was relatively short and there's plenty of parking in the shopping center. My husband got the Seoul steak and eggs on an egg bagel and I had the spam and eggs on an egg bagel. Everything was very hot and fresh and the flavors were delicious. I paired it with a corn silk tea. This was the only thing I didn't love. I expected it to be a hot tea but it was iced. It just didn't hit the spot like I expected. Service was excellent, and there was plenty of seating inside.

    Seoul Steak & Eggs Sandwich

    Great-tasting bagels at a reasonable price! We ordered the Seoul Steak & Eggs Sandwich and the Seoul Spicy Pork & Egg Sandwich. I preferred the spicy pork since I enjoy a bit of heat, although the spice level wasn't very strong for me. The only downside was that both sandwiches could've used more steak and spicy pork filling, as the portions felt a bit light. That said, the service was amazing! They noticed it was our first time and kindly gave us a small discount, which was a really nice touch.

    Came here on a recommendation and I'm so glad I did! Deli Seoul offers a unique twist on bagel sandwiches by adding Korean flavors. I got the spicy pork, and it was super flavorful and yummy. The bagel itself was also well-made. The owner was really friendly and nice as well. When I went on a weekend morning, it was busy and the wait was a little long so just be prepared!

    This place is quite popular especially on a Saturday morning. I met up with a friend for a quick bite to eat and very much enjoyed our time and our food. This place had a constant flow of patrons and there were folks of all ages. The staff were friendly and all on the move. You can see all the food being prepped just behind the cashiers. The vibe of this place is casual and has a lot records on the wall for decoration. I was even surprised to see that they even have a kids table with plenty of things to keep the kids occupied with chalk, sticker maker and other fun things!!! You can get everything from a plain bagel with cream cheese to something so unique as a Bulgogi breakfast sandwich on a bagel... and oh my goodness,.. it was sooooo good. The bagel was so light and airy and the meat was cooked perfectly. There was an explosion of flavor each time I took a bite from my sandwich. 10/10 would come back here again just to try a regular bagel with cream cheese lol.

    Seoul Steak & Eggs
    Daniela N.

    AMAZING!! They have a great selection of bagel sandwiches, but I also noticed they serve rice bowls, so I'll definitely be coming back to try those. When I walked in, I spoke with the owner and let him know it was my first time. He was super friendly and gave me a few recommendations. I stopped by Deli Seoul because the bagel place I originally planned to visit was closed, and I'm honestly glad it worked out that way. It's located in a shopping center with plenty of parking, which is always a plus. I ended up ordering the Seoul Steak & Eggs on an everything bagel and a pineapple mango smoothie. The bagel sandwich was incredible--my mouth is watering just thinking about it. It comes with Korean bulgogi, Korean chili mayo, eggs, and pepper jack cheese on a soft everything bagel. The meat was tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, and the bagel itself was soft with great flavor. Everything worked really well together. The pineapple mango smoothie was refreshing and paired perfectly with the sandwich. Overall, a great first visit. Friendly service, delicious food, cool vibes/ set up and plenty of parking. I'll definitely be back to try the rice bowls next time.

    Absolutely loved Deli Seoul! Such a unique spot with amazing Korean-inspired bagels and sandwiches. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and homemade. The staff was super kind and the vibe was cozy. Can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

    Hi Michael. Our sourdough bread is not 100% organic

    Are there any vegan options?

    Unfortunately, none of our breads are considered vegan. The sourdough bagel or bread is the closest thing, but I can't guarantee it. The only item I'm 100% sure is vegan is our vegan cream cheese. However, we are often using the same prep stations… Read more

    Online Ordering System Needs Attention…read more I'm leaving this review because this has now happened multiple times and it's clearly not a one-off issue. Every time I place an order through the online ordering system, it provides a specific pickup time. However, when I arrive at that time, the order is almost never ready. Instead, I'm told it will be another 10-30 minutes. At that point, the pickup time in the system becomes meaningless and defeats the entire purpose of ordering ahead. To be fair, the bagels themselves are good, which is the reason I've continued coming back. But the online ordering timing is consistently inaccurate and needs attention. From what I can see, it often feels like the order isn't even started until I arrive. The staff is clearly busy, but the workflow and prioritization of online orders doesn't seem to be managed well. The team often appears rushed and working reactively rather than following a clear process. This feels like a management and operations issue rather than a problem with the employees themselves. If the kitchen is running behind, the system should reflect realistic pickup times so customers can plan accordingly. I'm hoping management sees this feedback and looks into the process. The food is good, but the ordering system and execution need improvement. If this gets addressed, I'd gladly update my review.

When they handed me my drink it was a plain banana latte with no foam or brittle. I was ignored when I tried calling for the barista until another girl followed up - however this girl had an attitude. She told me that I must not have ordered it since they ask at the register if I want foam with brittle. Explained they didn't ask. Instead she just said "sorry I'll let them know for next time".
