After hearing great things about this place, my expectations were pretty high. The Sunday afternoon wait was around 45 minutes (to be expected).
Overall, Aunties and Uncles feels lackluster; like it has lost what once made it great. The inside is very kitchy/has that cool diner feel, but I couldn't help feel that it was dirtier than it should be. I appreciate the quaint, but not when accompanied by a dusty feel (at one point, a long "string" of dust floated down in front of my friend's face!)
I had the brie/pear chutney sandwich. It was fine/good - the bread was great and I love brie so that was good. One of my friend's sandwich boasted sun dried tomatoes, but when the meal came they were just sliced ones. Was it the brunch rush that made them skip this or have they just not updated their menu?
THE BOTTOM LINE: you get the sense this place was once glorious, but as of right now, is not doing enough to keep me coming back.
