Review Summary

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.

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.

Waouh! Toujours un plaisir de venir chercher un gâteau au fromage chez Uncle Tetsu. Mon coup de coeur reste celui au Matcha même si celui au Yuzu était tout aussi bon.

Très bonne adresse de pancake japonais. Il s'agit d'un dessert léger & très bon. Idéal après des dumplings. Ça se partage bien.

They are quick, & the cake tastes fresh & delicious. My son loves it. So far, I bought like 10 in 3 weeks. Bit expensive for the size, but yeah, the taste matters.

The best in the town. Soft, not too sweet. Chocolat & original is highly recommended. I have not tried Matcha.
