Review Summary

Reviews for Oze Bagel Plus Inc emphasize the bagels as the standout, with freshness and flavor described as exceptional and the main reason to return, especially the sesame and everything varieties that come out hot from the oven.

Review Summary

Mi-Station reviews point to a hot day visit with a long line and only a few staff, which can slow things down, with a menu mainly offering vanilla and chocolate and some wish for more flavors. The ice cream is described as smooth, tasty, and a good size, though a few notes mention it can be a bit too creamy and that sugar content is reasonable; praise appears for fast service, cleanliness, and organization, while others feel the experience is decent but not especially special due to the classic flavors.
