Review Summary

Across reviews, Uncle Tetsu is praised for fluffy not too sweet Japanese cheesecakes that arrive warm and freshly baked, with the original and chocolate varieties frequently highlighted for a light, creamy texture and balanced flavor, while packaging and friendly service are consistently appreciated and the treats are enjoyed as a convenient option for sharing or celebrations, though some locations are crowded with little seating and long lines, and a sign inside mentions that the cakes are nut free.

It's a quaint little shop offering Japanese cheesecakes in three delightful flavors, along with tarts & cookies. My personal favorite is the original cheesecake, & their charming packaging adds to the experience. If you find yourself near the downtown area, it's definitely worth a try.

The yummiest & lightest cheesecake in the area!

The service is efficient & is usually fast once you are inside the shop but there are sometimes line-ups outside. It's worth the wait though.

Keep in mind that this place is only meant for purchase; there are no tables to sit at & eat. They will pack your order carefully so it's easy to carry.

They offer a small variety of products (cheesecake, tart etc) & also offers them in a couple of flavors such as original, matcha & chocolate. From time to time they also introduce new designs such as the one in this picture for halloween, which was super cute!

I am updating my review, as a regular customer, to mention something I noticed in my recent purchases. The tarts (original & matcha flavours) seem to have been getting sweeter. The first time my family noticed it we thought it was just a one-off human error in measurement but it was just as sweet the next two times as well. One of the things we used to enjoy with the tarts was that it was a dessert & therefore sweet but not too sweet. We liked the hint of tangy in the sweet flavour but now it's just plain sweet. Maybe some people prefer it that way but it would be great if they could offer a reduced-sugar version as well.

I was thrilled when I found out that there are Japanese cheesecakes in Montreal. They are very cheesy & light. We were very pleased 🥰
They also offer tarts & cupcakes. It's a pity they don't have their own seating area; you can only get them to go.

Les cheese tarts single natures sont tellement délicieuses!!
& le gâteau cheese cake est assez original & c’est à goûter! Mais ce n’est pas aussi incroyable que les tartelettes!!!!!!
