Uncle Tetsu is praised for light, fluffy cheesecakes with a delicate, balanced flavor that makes each bite feel special, with original and chocolate flavors getting particular praise. The desserts are described as not overly sweet, with fresh textures and even madeleines noted as moist and filling. They are often seen as great for celebrations or sharing with friends and family, though a few reviews say the original cheesecake may not be their favorite. Crowding and no seating at the store are common logistical notes, along with occasional lines, but service is frequently described as fast and friendly. A nut free sign inside adds reassurance for some guests, and the cakes are said to stay fresh for a while. The place is sometimes described as a hidden gem with a nice ambiance, and going early is suggested to avoid crowds. Overall, Uncle Tetsu's cheesecakes come across as reliably delicious for fans of airy Japanese cheesecakes, despite occasional crowding and logistical quirks.
Their locations are consistent in quality across the country. I first tried Uncle Tetsu in Toronto & am glad I have a location near me in my new city. The Japanese Cheesecake standard.
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.
I love japan because of that cheesecake, it's not the same one you eat in Japan but is almost the same, sorry for the half cake family couldn't wait for me to take a picture they open it & cut it fast, however it's so light & fluffy
You don't feel the sugar at all & I'm not sure if there's any sugar in it , maybe is good for who crave sugar but they are diabetic I said maybe cause you must be sure the amount of sugar in it before you try in case you are diabetic, the muffin are amazing the service everything is nice oh my lord how much I love Japan , I always want to try the Japanese cheesecake on that location but every time I go a huge line waiting to buy so I leave but those time was early & no one so vroom vroom run inside grab a cake & six muffin , the time i got home was three muffin left & half cake gone,
Here's the corrected version: First time trying a Japanese cheesecake, & I loved it! The place is very well located, the staff is friendly, & the service is surprisingly fast. The flavor is light, but you can still taste the cheese & sweetness in just the right amount. I will definitely go back & try the chocolate cheesecake.
