Lovely family Resturant. Beautifully done steak exactly what I asked for medium rare leaning more to the rare side. Shrimp pasta was delicious the shrimp was done perfectly and not overly cooked. Nice family style smash potatoes and butter grilled veggies as a side. The garlic bread and soup of the day remind me of grandmama’s cooking.
As usual. They offer the best service. Mandy the owner is so friendly. The Benedict is great. The Braised Pork Knuckle/hock is well cooked. French onion soup is great. I strongly recommend this restaurant. Our church has a luncheon at here with very quiet room for fellowship.
I truly enjoy the beautiful and classic decorations along with the relaxing ambience. This peacful place provides comfort and coziness. Not to mention about the scrumptious food and great service!
Used to go years ago when I lived in Markham. Decided to visit again after almost 7 years. Food still taste great and service is good and the owner is friendly. Lamb Shank was the highlight for the night Markham Main Street is a very vibrant area on the weekends as well - the traffic maybe a bit of wait but don’t forget they have plenty of parking behind the restaurant
We absolutely love this place. It’s been here for ages so the decor is a little on the darker side but it’s very well kept. The food is always hot and fresh. The customer service is always great. We have never had an issue here. They even serve liver and onions. Feb 16/18 Another great dinner. The portion size is very good, the quality was high and the service was very nice. Overall a great visit to a hidden gem on Markham Road north of Hwy 7. Food is made fresh.
Several months ago, I saw an online content creator trying the Pork Hock dish at Uncle Joes Family Restaurant which catch my attention. After trying this restaurant for three times (two dine-ins and one take out). I believe it time for me to share my thoughts on this Hidden Little Gem. First of all, I love the classic interior decor of this family restaurant. It like time travelling back to the 70’s. Secondly, the lady owner is very welcoming and friendly, just felt like home. Last but not least, the food is excellent and some of the items are comparable to five stars downtown restaurants. Let further discuss some of my favourite must try items at Uncle Joes Family Restaurant. French Onion Soup: Every time I visit a western restaurant, the first thing I order from the menu is their French Onion soup. The French Onion soup usually turn out to be a disappointment but not at this place. The cheese on top is just the right portion and not over boiled. The onions are well-caramelized but not over-caramelized. The onion soup broth is just pure onion sweetness and not salty at all. This is very difficult to achieve, as the soup base will become more concentrated when keep warming during the day. I tried their French Onion soup both at lunch and dinner time, they managed to maintain their soup base not too salty. Their French Onion soup is on par with the La Societe restaurant (now closed), which in my opinion served the best French Onion soup in Toronto. Pork Hock: They do not serve the German style crispy skin pork hock which most people might expect (including myself) but it is not a bad thing. Their pork hock slow roasted extremely well. It is very tender, moist inside and flavourful. The pork skin is super jelly and full of collagen. Overall, this is the best pork hock I have tried in GTA. Rib Eye Steak: I was very surprise when I took the first bite of the Rib Eye steak. I did not expect a family style diner will able to grill near Toronto high-end steakhouse quality steak. The pleasant grill smoky flavour of steak is very appetizing and not overpowering. The chef grills the steak exactly to your desired doneness. The meat quality is decent as well. I should have listened to the lady owner and have my steak in medium doneness instead of medium rare, as the fat marble will melt and further enhance the flavour. Liver & Onions: It is very difficult to cook ordinary ingredients and turn it into an amazing dish. Their Liver & Onions is one of those dishes. The liver is lightly cutlet and cooked just right, not over or undercooked. The onions are well-caramelized but not over-caramelized. Their gravy is not too salty at all. All these simple ingredients combine created the best Liver & Onions dish I have tasted in the last decade. Ice Cream Sundae: I pretty sure you can buy the same ice cream at a local supermarket but the way the chef presented this Sundae and the classic decor surrounding makes me think this is the best Sundae in the world (totally psychological). Please refer to my sundae photo. Overall, my family and I enjoyed dinning at this family restaurant and you are getting near Steakhouse quality at Diner prices. Keep up the good work
Nice restaurant with very friendly staff. The interior is clean and decor is reminiscent of an old upscale diner. Menu has a range of items from breakfast to steak. Portions are filling and prices are quite reasonable for what you're getting. Overall worth a visit.
I’ve gotten the lamb leg dinner here multiple times as take-out (which is 5/5, I highly recommend). But tonight is the first time I’ve actually sat at the restaurant for eat-in. Great, friendly service and great food portions. Fries are crispy and not soft like many restaurants or diners I’ve been to. Grilled veggies are great and you know what I think I like the most? Their soup that comes with the dinner. Uncle Joe’s has been around for a long time and you can tell that by the decor, but what surprises me is how clean everything. You can tell the owners really put a lot of effort into caring for the establishment. I will continue to order the lamb leg dinner, but I’m pretty sure my family will be coming here for eat-in dinner more regularly as well.
