" I visited Uncle Tetsu last weekend and enjoyed it! The cheesecakes are definitely very different from what I am used to, being more of a soufflé-like texture. I believe they had a chocolate variant, but I opted for the original, which was fantastic! The shop was busy, but the line moved fairly quickly, and I appreciated the efficient service. An enjoyable dessert experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Uncle Tetsu has quickly become my go-to for cheesecake! The original flavor is out of this world and really lives up to the hype. The texture is so unique compared to cakes I am used to. However, the prices are a little high. I wouldn’t say the portion sizes are big enough to justify it, especially since you won't find any seating options. Regardless, I still find the quality worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to admit, the cheesecakes I had were too eggy for my taste. I understand it’s a unique dessert style, but I prefer something richer. The shop is great for takeout as I did find the line manageable during my visit. The madeleines were decent but nothing to write home about. Overall, I think they have a good thing going, just not quite for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is the ultimate cheesecake experience! It’s light, fluffy, and the flavors are on point. Each bite melts in your mouth. I tried the chocolate one and would highly recommend trying it chilled, as it enhances the flavor. The service was quick and efficient, although I wish the shop had a comfortable spot to sit down. I’ll definitely be coming back to try the other flavors, especially the matcha! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about Uncle Tetsu, I finally decided to give it a try. The cheesecake is an absolute gem! It has such a soft and airy texture, almost like a soufflé. The sweetness level is just perfect for me. However, I found the chocolate flavor to be a bit too sweet and rich compared to the original. I definitely wouldn’t hesitate to come back and try other flavors. One downside is the lack of seating, but I can't complain about the quality of the cheesecakes. This place is a must-visit for dessert lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally got my taste of Uncle Tetsu after hearing about it for ages. The original cheesecake was delightful, and I must say it lived up to the hype! It’s so delicate that it doesn’t leave you feeling too stuffed. I love that it’s a takeout only shop—perfect for grabbing a treat! The only downside is that the portion could be a little bigger for the price, but overall, really enjoyable. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been visiting Uncle Tetsu since it opened and the experience has always been delightful! Their cheesecakes are the perfect blend of texture and flavor. I especially love the original cheesecake, which is not overly sweet but just right. I often find myself waiting in line, but it’s worth it every time. The only downside is that it's takeout only, but they pack it well for transport. Definitely a 5-star experience for me! " (*Curated Review*)
