I wanted to see what the high praises were all about so I came here on on a week night but the restaurant was half empty.
Price is quite expensive while the portion is incredibly small. Their dishes are hyped up as I find them tasting okay/mediocre. Service on the other hand was really good. The washroom in the basement is a bit sketchy and run down.
We ordered:
Chicken Wings - three marinated chicken wings. They were okay. I prefer Korean fried chicken at elsewhere
Oxtail Gnocchi - this one was pretty good but portion was bite-sized
Starving Artist Noodles - this dish I had the most problem with. It was literally just noodles drenched in peanut sauce in which i can make at home. Nothing special. Over-priced.
In all, Uncle Mikey's was a good restaurant to check out, do they live up to the hype? I personally don't think so. The reviews they received were too generous.
