Once Upon A Bagel

The best bagels in town.

I was disappointed in the food. Corned beef sandwich ordered regular. Came lean which was tough, very small amount of meat compared to other restaurants. Horseradish on the side not given. When asked was given something brown almost like sauerkraut? Didn't eat.Potato pancake crispy but heavy. Friend ordered the lox plate and she was very happy! Bakery to go - delicious rugelach and kiddush cake. Not at all impressed with the bialy. Overall - I won't return but my friend would.

Greatest bagels and bialy on the North Shore.

OUAB had been a regular go-to eatery for our family for +30 years. But ever since Founder Jerry passed away 5+ years ago it has taken a gradual slide downhill, and we stopped going. I decided to take a chance a went back last Saturday after a long hiatus. I discovered that it hit bottom. Food was OK but not special. I can get better lox at Costco at a quarter the price. Bagels are also OK but no better than Costco. Prices have gone way up, so the value has vanished. But what really hit me as unacceptable was the service. Rude, rushed, and offensive. We had barely finished our food and planned on enjoying the mediocre coffee when we were almost forcibly asked to leave and almost had our chairs pulled out from under us, even though there were other tables being vacated. We got the hint and left. No plans to return.
