Mo opened his namesake establishment in Aventura in 1995. The big, roomy, modern 160-seat restaurant is more than a deli and bagel shop, it’s become affectionately known as the local Cheers, “Where everybody knows your name.” There is an international flavor to Mo's friendly waitstaff who hail from all over the map—there are as many accents in the air as varieties of bagels. Recently, Mo’s Bagel & Deli has expanded to Hallandale Beach, stepping in to fill a hole left by the veteran Sage Bagel, which closed its doors in March 2020.
