Located in the spot of a former newsstand, the new Dallas location of Oren Salomon's Starship Bagel hopes to bring quality fresh bagels to the north Texas masses.
Located in the former home of a newsstand, the Dallas location of Starship Bagel aims to bring high-quality bagels to the North Texas masses.When we arrived around 10 a.m., the line didn’t look too long. We settled in and people- watched while we waited. We were hoping to get an egg bagel, which are sold only on the weekends. In the end, it took us about an hour to get to the order window, at which point we were greeted by Salomon himself.
We were excited to place our order and just as our mouths began to open Salomon raised his hand and politely stopped us to explain the situation. Evidently, demand and crowds had greatly exceeded his expectations, and the staff has become a bit overwhelmed trying to fill all the orders. As each new customer approached the window he had them wait about three minutes before ordering to help the staff catch up.
Owner Oren Salomon working the front window and keeping up with what varieties of bagels are still available on the whiteboardWe took that opportunity to chat a bit with Salomon, who explained that he’s always wanted to expand from Lewisville to Dallas but could never find an affordable space until this spot became available. He was hoping it would be successful but just hadn’t fully anticipated how great the demand would be.
Freshly baked bagels that undergo a 24-hour fermentation process await you, assuming they haven't sold out yet.After receiving the news that indeed the egg bagels had been sold out, we ordered three bagels with schmear, at $4 each. All schmears are made fresh each morning and can also be purchased in 8-ounce tubs to go. For those who prefer their bagel schmearless, these can be purchased for $2.50 each or $21 for a dozen.
Finally, we went with fermented jalapeño schmear on an untoasted sesame bagel. The fermentation evidently tones down the kick of the jalapeño, concentrating the flavor in a unique way that we found extremely satisfying.The verdict: well worth the wait, the trip to downtown Dallas and the requisite parking meter fee. These are really good bagels that approach NYC-level quality, priced nicely in an attractive hip urban setting to boot.
