“Best lox: Russ & daughter”

“Barney greengrass makes the best lox I have ever had in my life”

“The best lox at a steal of a price.”

“The real thing--from Zabar's, or Barney Greengrass, or Murray's--has no substitute, so treat yourself once in awhile. You get a better price buying it sliced than as a sandwich. And if you're ordering, remember lox is very salty--most people actually want smoked salmon or nova, not lox.”

“Sadelle's can be packed but ugh the fucking lox was so top tier”

“Last, the lox at Sarge's is world-class.”

“They have great bagels, lox and sandwiches.”

“Also their lox is surprisingly good, like russ + daughter’s level”

“the lox and bagels you can get for cheaper and better a few blocks away at Zabar's and H&H....”

“Pick a bagel is generous with their lox”

“Very good lox too!”

“They were classic, but just our places for lox, bialies, and pastrami sandwiches.”

“Their bagels were really good but the fact that I had to cut my bagel and smear and add the lox from a bag was a disappointment.”

“Bagel: Tompkins square is a great recommendation; I wouldn’t get lox though but rather a BEC and have a shared appetiser plate at russ and daughters cafe instead”

“1.5 slices of lox and a mid bagel”

“Solid bagel, enjoyed my partners' brisket/egg better than the lox”

“I find their bagels to be exceptional but their accoutrements (namely lox and cream cheese) to be average.”

“This one definitely did, super fresh, the lox at the right temperature / smooth”

“A little further up in Upper West Side, you have Kossar’s and Zucker’s. The former has good bagels, the latter has good lox and smoked fish.”
