I've been wanting to try this for a while and was excited to see that they have a $15 all day special. I got the General Tsos Chicken and was really disappointed. It did not have the usual General Tsos Chicken saucy taste and it just tasted really bland. I might come back to just give the place another try and try something else off the menu but this was not a great first meal here. Other than the food itself, the staff was extremely friendly, and they have a water fountain you can serve and refill water yourself. read more

I come here quite often for bagels, and for the last two times there has obviously been at least half the amount of cream cheese on the bagel. Today there was so little I can't even perceive the taste of any cream cheese (see photo). I have no idea what has led to the drop off in quantity, but it's really unacceptable, since in no way can this be defined as a bagel with cream cheese. read more

Wu + Nussbaum is one of my nearby "go-to" fresh bagel places to pick up for home, especially due to the sad shuttering of old school Absolute Bagels down the street. My preference is their regular Pumpernickel and Egg bagels! This time, out of Pumpernickel, tried Wu + Nussbaum's unusual Pumpernickel Everything, which for some reason has oats included in the "Everything." Also took a couple classic Salt. (Tasty, but I'll stick to my personal preference of just plain Pumpernickel next time and avoid the well-coated Salt.) While I've been cutting back on my sweets, was enticed by their muffins. Opted to try two of Wu + Nussbaum's varieties: Chocolate Cream Cheese and Peach Vanilla. My preference and reco - the chocolate, which was more like an extremely moist cupcake! The other was also nice, but more like a traditional muffin with a dollop of peach on top. Would certainly recommend Wu + Nussbaum's baked goods! Living close by, however, unlikely I'd ever try out their sandwiches. Also, haven't gone for any of their Chinese options, although there are too numerous worthwhile similar places with the same both nearby and elsewhere in Manhattan. read more

I loved this bagel and was sad when it was over. My fault really for eating it so quickly. I had an egg everything bagel with lox, egg, and cream cheese. Maybe it's a weird combination, but I like it. Needed some protein and carbs. Stopped by in the Am, was in and out in less than 10 minutes. It's dangerous for me that this place is a block from work more visits to be had for sure. read more

1/2/26 around 3:30 I went to pick up my order. I had ordered a bagel and then separately I ordered an orange juice. After I picked up the bagel, I went to take the orange juice and they told me they didn't have that order. I showed them the receipt from DoorDash and they told me that I needed to call DoorDash because she didn't have the order. I told her I didn't need to do anything because I placed the order and I paid for it and here's the receipt. I took the orange juice and she goes "so you're just going to take it?" I told her yes I was because I paid for it. I've had poor service here before and I decided to give them a second chance. But they don't get a third chance and I will never be back here. read more

Great dumplings! Horrible bagels. Would've given 4 stars if I didn't dislike the bagels. They are dry and honestly a shame to other bagels in NYC. Other food is great though! I love both their pork and veggie dumplings. The shrimp/broccoli in the bento box was fine, not super flavorful, but I'll take it. However, their crumb cake was delicious! Overall, I will still return for their dumplings while avoiding their bagels. read more

I've been going to Wu Nussbaum, consistently for the past 6 months, even though the bagels are B minus. The coffee is good; the service is not. They have tables and counters, which is convenient. My order always was Bagel with Cream Cheese, no toasted. Today, it came with jelly which I did not order, went to the counter explained that the "server" proceeded to grab my order tossed it and said "you need to order another one". Either my honest mistake or theirs, don't know. Again, I've been going to Wu Nussbaum CONSISTENTLY for the past 6 months and each time I left at least 15% tip. I guess they don't need my business or my tips. Many places around. read more

Objective three stars but I am addicted to whitefish salad and drop $15 on it too often here, so spiritually four. The bagels themselves are okay, nice and dense and chewy, but not a crisp exterior. The sandwich architecture is variable. I can't speak to the Chinese food since I haven't had it except for one time when they wrongly gave me an order of noodles. I will say the food is not actually fusion, as is obvious when looking at the menu: they just happen to sell both Chinese dishes and bagels. Staff are efficient. Music is loud and when it's busy, even louder, so would recommend coming with a group or taking your order to go. read more

I used to come here back when it was Nussbaum and Wu. I remembered the amazing smoothies, the bagel sandwiches. I am glad it's reopened and slightly rebranded, and Asian food is on the menu!! Sad to see that the smoothie bar is no longer, but I'm glad smoothies are on the menu. I ordered the Mr. Berry and an egg bagel with egg and cheese. The smoothie was very watery and disappointing. By the end, it was clumpy; it seemed that the substance sank to the bottom. My egg bagel sandwich was okay! (I wish there was more cheese, but other than that it was great). I have not tried the Asian food menu items here, but maybe next time. read more

This review is for their bacon egg and cheese! I know that the bodegas are typically known for their BECs, but Wu & Nussbaum's NEEDS to be talked about. The bacon is quality. Not too fatty, not too thin, and not so thick that you can't pull it apart. It's just right. The amount of egg and cheese is perfectly proportioned. I get mine on a croissant instead of a roll, and when I say I DREAM of those croissants?! I mean it. They are warm, slightly flaky, but still holds together well, and super buttery. Yum. They also serve fresh orange juice, so I'm always sure to grab a cup when I come in. The place is fairly spacious, usually quiet, and consistently clean. The service is quick and the servers are kind. Definitely check this place out if you're ever near Morningside Heights. read more

Wu and Nussbaum - lox, egg, and onion bagel - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

Wu Nussbaum is a fusion spot mixing Asian and deli-style food. The bagels are okay, the lox is pretty good. My usual order is an everything bagel with cream cheese and salmon, or sometimes a cinnamon raisin bagel with plain cream cheese. It's better to go early in the day--the quality drops a bit later on. I'm not a fan of their dumplings, but it's worth trying if you're into fusion food. I mostly stick to the bagels. In and out type of restaurant, more of a pick up destination! read more

My first time ordering from here based on my coworkers recommendation. I ordered the LoMein add shrimp. I have to admit that when my food arrived it didn't look appealing. It looked basic and bland. I quickly looked for the soy sauce and found there was none provided in my delivery. Ugh. No napkins either. Just chop sticks, which I eat with, but not everyone does so be aware. With my first taste I was able to honestly say they no additional flavouring was needed for me. The shrimp was fresh and the veggies too. It was much better than it looked and way too much food for me. I will have leftovers for tomorrow. I would definitely order again. FYI, my office mate ordered the meatless General Tso' chicken which she raves about. Give them a try! read more

Went here after being in the area for another spot that was closed during business hours, so I figured let me grab a bite somewhere else. The menu was very small. I will say the service was quick, but they don't cone to check once they served the food. Had the beef with broccoli. It tasted ok, but for $20 bit of a disappointment. I noticed there weren't many people eating inside, but there were a lot of takeout being delivered. I decor was ok and place looked clean. I laughed because the person I was with shared that they were a regular cheap Chinese restaurant disguising themselves as something more by the location, the size and decor. I laughed so hard because it's true. But it's more money. Could've gotten a beef broccoli at my local spot for less than half the price. To top it off my stomach did not feel so good after this meal. Won't be returning read more

No complaints, solid bagel sandwich. Loved to see the style of egg: it was my first time seeing it layered with pan fried sheets of egg in a bagel sandwich, and it came out very yummy. The bacon was juicy and crisp, and the egg bagel itself was really well seasoned: I could taste every ingredient that topped the everything bagel. I think it was only very crowded today because there was a Columbia event happening, but we could still find seating despite the line to order. Solid pick for a breakfast meal! read more

I almost never leave reviews, but the service today that I got, I have to mention. I like the place, great cafe feel that you can go to casually. It's cool and I think it's fun and unique that they have chinese food there, in addition to bagels and baked goods. The staff is generally good, this is a weird, hopefully isolated incident. I've gone a bunch of times and haven't had an issue before this. So I went before this incident and ordered a bacon/egg/cheese bagel and felt the egg wasn't enough, so i said to myself, next time i go, i'll add extra egg to it (which is fine, i didnt complain or anything, some places are like that). So i went back today, went to build a bagel, and selected 2 options: 1 was to add fried egg, and 1 was to add scrambled egg, to a bagel. I thought i'd get more egg this way, 2 eggs worth. Each addition cost me $4.5, so i hope i get 2 eggs for $9 (sheesh). I get the sandwich and it's like the first day, haha, just 1 egg, not much there, even though i ordered 2. I eat a bit of it and eventually go mention that they left off egg. They then ask to inspect my sandwich and give it back. Then the cook comes to say "i put the egg there" and i say "yea only 1, not 2" and we disagree, and nothing happens. I wasn't asking for much. They made it seem like i was lying, or trying to cheat them for 1 egg. It was insanity. I leave it and go back to my work there on my laptop. I eventually think, let me try again, so i order the sandwich again like an hour later. I again add 2 eggs to my bagel. This time, the cook guy comes out and says "do you want fried egg or scrambled egg". And i said, "both" because i ordered both. This proved to me this cook guy does not understand the ordering system. I bought 2 eggs, each for $4.50, so i get 2 eggs. It is not an either/or situation, otherwise why am i paying $4.50 twice. I hoped he had learned his lesson, but instead he gives me the 2nd sandwich the same as the first time, with just 1 fried egg on it, and no scrambled egg. I get it's kind of unusual to have 2 different kind of eggs on a sandwich, so maybe he was confused, but that's what their ordering system has. I felt ripped off of $9 from the 2 sandwiches i ordered. They need to fix this. Make it a more clear "2 egg" option. There wasn't any. Anyways, if you go there and order an egg sandwich, expect to get the minimal egg they have, haha. Even if you add an extra egg to it. Yes, i'm aware this is like a curb your enthusiasm episode or seinfeld. Even if i was trying to cheat them of an egg and was lying (which is crazy), why wouldnt they just give it to me? It's not a big deal. They denied me and basically made it seem like i was trying to cheat them. I think it was just confusion in how to handle my order of adding 2 different eggs to a sandwich. read more

Really hate to do this, but don't waste your money here. I came and ordered a cinnamon raisin bagel with smashed avocado. Usually this never costs me more than $5, but here it cost $10.62!

*this review is only for the Nussbaum - bagel & bialys part. I'm hoping that when I try Wu's food I'll have a more positive experience. I was excited to try a Nussbaum bagel when unfortunately I was let down by this pathetic bagel. You're waaay better off going to Absolute Bagels or the many breakfast carts along Broadway instead. Where do I start? I came in with high hopes but their cashier Lorena rushed me for my order and wasn't very friendly. There wasn't even a line or anyone else waiting, as it was 10:30am. It was hard to determine a cream cheese selection since it's not listed on the menu, so you have to look down below to a limited selection anyways. I requested for it to be toasted - it came back barely warm, extremely hard and tough to chew, and the thinnest layer of cream cheese!! This, for $5.44?! Absolutely disappointing. TLDR: don't come here for bagels, it's a waste of time & calories. read more

I've been living in Shanghai for nine years but left there for more than ten years. I've been missing Shanghai foods so much and finally found this one!

Wu and Nussbaum - Pork with Crabmeat Xiao Long Bao - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

Food was pretty good for what we got. Came here stumbling at ~845pm on a Thursday night when we were looking for some late night dinner. Restaurant had a decent amount of people in it, but we were nonetheless seated immediately at the front. We ordered the following: chicken dumplings and crab and meat xiao long bao. Both were less than $10 a piece, so its not terribly expensive place to grab food. I liked the xiaolong bao we got. They were plump and delicious. Really filling. soup came out piping hot, and the flavors on point. Also loved their special chicken dumplings, those were nice and not too spicy. My biggest complaint would probably be the small portions, and the sauce was slightly too sweet for my taste. Taro milkshake was really appreciated as a complimentary gift for dining at this new restaurant. Personally, I'd prefer my boba a little less sweet, but I guess its pretty standard taro bubble tea in the city. read more

If I got the wrong order, then this review could go from 5 stars to 1 star. Let me explain... A new menu with Impossible meat items was released very recently, and i tried the impossible xiao long bao. They were soupy on the inside, wonderfully salty, AND TASTED EXACTLY LIKE PORK?! I felt so weirded out as a vegan of 3 years, but they were delicious, so I wasn't going to stop eating... but if I somehow did get the wrong order I would be very sad indeed... read more

Ah, the conundrum every New Yorker ultimately faces when writing Yelp reviews - how many stars to dock a business for a roach? We know they are out there. They have to be. But nobody wants a sighting. The first time he crawled into view, I was enjoying my Wu and Nussbaum bagel and veggie cream cheese so much, I decided to ignore him. The bagel was just the right size and heft, with copious sesame seeds. The second time I spotted him emerging from behind a pile of bananas, I left. Nothing to kill the appetite like a roach, regardless of how good the bagels are. read more

The bagels were pretty decent, not too shabby but not mindblowing either. We ordered some breakfast bagels, and the bagels themselves were very fluffy but also chewy at the same time. The spread wasn't seasoned enough in my opinion, but the size was quite large and extremely filling. I really liked the space as well. Sitting outside on a sunny day is so soothing, especially for people watching! May or may not come back, overall a good place to go for bagels. I have yet to try the soup dumplings though!! read more

Wu and Nussbaum - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

My overall impression is that this is a convenient lunch spot with a nice selection of foods, but given the prices it may not be my all-time go-to place. I came alone and got an everything bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese ($7 total). The bagel itself was wonderful, with an added sprinkle of salt that I usually don't find on everything bagels. There was a generous portion of cheese and egg, standard amounts of bacon. They toasted it quickly and I only waited maybe 5 minutes. The menu is interesting with a lot of choices between standard bagel breakfast and a wide selection of cream cheeses and then a lunch menu of both take-out style Chinese food and more traditional cuisine. They even have nice smoothies that I'd like to take a look at. The ambience of the place is pleasant, not too noisy at 12:30pm on a Monday, and not too crowded. They have open seating so you can sit anywhere. A nice working spot with wifi but might get crowded during the school year. read more
