I have ordered roasted lamb and gyro platter. First, potato that came with lamb was sour and uncooked, and lamb looked like it was cooked, not roasted, greasy, sour, and hard. I took bait and spit out. And gyro was even bigger disappointment. Most of the Greek restaurants in Astoria serve real gyro, with real chunks of meat, however Uncle... more

Awesome food and all the locals go here. Reasonable, delicious food and they never try to rush you out. Totally casual joint. the house wine is super cheap!! And I love the stuffed tomatoes, when they're on the menu, the lemon potatoes(awesome) and fishes. the tzaziki is a bit garlic-y so be ready. more

I'm not sure why this place gets such good reviews. Maybe people just don't expect much here. I had a seafood salad that was entirely overcooked, parts were even burned. The service was terrible. I found my waitress nothing less than rude. Overall, even the food that was good was only good by comparison to the bad. I waited for... more
