Uncle Tetsu in Montreal is a Japanese bakery located on Rue Pierce near Concordia University, specializing in airy, Japanese-style fluff cheesecakes & freshly baked treats. The space is small, clean, & counter-service focused, with a warm & simple setup designed for quick pick-ups. Stepping inside, you are greeted by the comforting aroma of eggs, butter, & warm batter as fresh batches come out of the oven, stamped right in front of you before being boxed up.
The signature original Japanese cheesecake is the main attraction & lives up to its reputation. It has a light, pillow-like texture that almost melts in your mouth, striking a nice balance between a soufflé & a traditional cheesecake without being overly sweet or heavy. For chocolate lovers, the chocolate cheesecake offers a richer flavor profile while keeping that same delicate, airy bounce.
Beyond the full-sized cheesecakes, the shop offers a few smaller individual treats that make great quick snacks. The cheese tarts feature a buttery, flaky crust filled with a warm, creamy cheese center that has a slightly richer & tangy finish compared to the main cake. They also serve madeleines & rusks, which give a crisp, toasted crunch that pairs well with tea or coffee if you want something to save for later.
The ordering process at the counter is fast & organized, with staff efficiency moving the line along quickly even when a queue forms out the door. Since the shop is compact & operates mostly as a grab-&-go spot without indoor seating, getting your box handed to you fresh & warm is a smooth experience from start to finish.
Overall, Uncle Tetsu provides a light & satisfying dessert experience centered around simplicity & great texture. The combination of freshly stamped soufflé cheesecakes & rich cheese tarts makes it a standout bakery stop in the neighborhood. It is the kind of place I would regularly drop by to grab a warm cake to share with friends or take home after grabbing dinner nearby.
We tried the matcha, original, & chocolate cheesecakes from Uncle Tetsu & honestly, each one had its own kind of deliciousness 🍰
The texture is so light, fresh, & soft, & you can really taste the quality in every flavor. The original is classic & comforting, the matcha has a perfect balanced flavor, & the chocolate one is rich without being too heavy 🍵🍫
Definitely worth trying if you love fresh & fluffy Japanese-style cheesecakes 💛
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.
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.
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.
Cette petite boulangerie typiquement japonaise est tout ce qu'il y a de plus pittoresque. L'entrée est étroite & donne directement sur la cuisine & les options à déguster! Ici, il s'agit bien d'un comptoir de service qui ne tiens aucune place assise. Nous étions deux, cloisonnés dans la petite entrée à annoncer notre choix & nous n'aurions pas pu être plus nombreux. L'accueil a été immédiat! Le sourire d'une dame prête à prendre notre commande: La nouveauté/saveur du mois: Hojicha! 🙌 Ni une ni deux, la commande se retrouve dans une belle boîte & dans un sac aux couleurs de l'enseigne. L'attention aux détails est digne de la réputation qu'on en fait. Les boîtes qui se coordonnent aux saveurs, le petit emballage pour préserver le précieux gâteau vient s'apposer comme un drap délicat, l'estampe "uncle tetsu" marque doucement la mie & même le petit autocollant refermant le paquet posséde son charme! Le seul conseil ici: Ne tardez pas trop avant de le déguster! C'est lorsqu'il vient d'être confié à vos mains qu'il est à son meilleur! Ce gâteau est aérien, moelleux comme jamais! Un nuage pour les papilles! Les saveurs sont délicates & divines! Ce petit dessert est un appel à la gourmandise, rien de moins! Uncle Tetsu est un trésor caché qu'il convient de trouver & retrouver encore! GROS coups de coeur gustatif & la saveur Hojicha mérite totalement & entièrement sa place sur le menu officiel! Je l'exige, rien de moins! 🤤🧡 Petit bémol: C'est un dessert qui est plutôt onéreux, mais vous en trouverez peu comme celui-là. Cela vaut le détour & aussitôt dégusté que l'envie d'y retourner pour une autre part (& d'autres dégustations) m'appelle!
Been a fan of Uncle Tetsu since they opened their location here in Montreal, & have purchased their cheesecakes, cookies & madeleines.
I’ve tried three of their Japanese cheesecake flavours & the original is definitely my favourite, the matcha comes in a close second & the chocolate third- though all three taste great regardless.
Yesterday, I stopped by at around 7:45pm & ordered their combo deal: buy 1 cheesecake & 4 madeleines, get 1 (5th) madeleine for free.
I went with their original cheesecake, 4 matcha madeleines & chose the original-flavoured madeleine as my 5th.
Safe to say that they most certainly did not disappoint, both the madeleines & the cheesecake.
The madeleines were moist (the matcha ones also had red beans inside, at the bottom), & after leaving the cheesecake in the fridge for a couple hours to cool down, it tasted amazing (just like how I remembered).
Moreover, the male worker who served me was polite & friendly. He quickly prepared my order & I left the shop very satisfied.
I’ll surely be coming by again when the cravings hit &/or when my friends & I plan a girls night, as you cannot go wrong with Uncle Tetsu’s light + fluffy cheesecake as a dessert.
We had a strong craving for cake, so we opted for Uncle's original cheesecake. While ordering, we spotted a deal on madeleines, so we ordered four & received one free. Unfortunately, the chocolate madeleines were quite dry, & the matcha-flavored ones, though a bit more moist, were still on the dry side.
However, Uncle's original cheesecake never disappoints. It's delicate, delicious, & simply melts in your mouth. It's incredibly light, & we could easily devour an entire one without hesitation.
