Review Summary

Reviews describe Uncle Tetsu as a place where Japanese cheesecakes are light, fluffy, and not overly sweet, with a creamy, balanced flavor that melts in the mouth. The texture is repeatedly praised and freshness is a common theme, with some suggesting a short rest in the fridge before serving for the best experience. The shop is noted as small and sometimes crowded, with no seating, but service is fast and the greeting at the register is often described as friendly. Offerings like original cheesecake and chocolate options win strong approval, and even smaller treats such as madeleines and rusk receive praise for taste and value, with a sign indicating the cakes are nut free in the shop. Overall, the desserts are considered a must try for those seeking a delicate, shareable treat that adds something special to gatherings, encouraging future visits.

I recently picked up a Japanese cheesecake from this bakery for a New Year's celebration, & it was an absolute hit. We decided to take a chance & make it our'first-time' New Year's cake, & it couldn't have been a better choice. The texture was unbelievably light & fluffy, the flavor perfectly balanced, & every bite felt special.

Our guests loved it, & it truly added something memorable to the celebration. Thank you for crafting such a delicious dessert, it definitely didn't disappoint & has earned a spot in our future celebrations.

I only tried their original cheesecake for the first time because it was a recommendation. It wasn't too bad but not something I'd get again, not for me.

Japanese cheesecakes at Uncle Tetsu are fluffy, not too sweet & delicious! The person who greets you at the register is always smiling, she's extremely nice & polite. I bring the cheesecakes to family gathering & everyone loves them. Also, fyi, there's a sign inside that says the cakes are nut free.

Hi I just bought a bag of original rusk this afternoon & I didn't check everything, when I back home then I noticed that there's only one layer of it, last week I bought two bags & both of them are 2 layers & full bag.
