" If you're in Montreal, you must stop by Uncle Tetsu! The cheesecakes are unlike any other I’ve tried. They're light, fluffy, and so unique compared to American-style cheesecakes. I particularly loved the matcha flavor! The only downside is that the line can be quite long, but it’s mitigated by how fast they serve. The ambiance is simple as it's a takeout place, but I appreciate the effort in presentation. Overall, I was thrilled with my visit and will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" A fantastic choice for a sweet treat. I tried both the matcha and original flavors, and I must say, the balance is incredible! The texture is light, and it's surprisingly not too sweet, which is refreshing. I understand the place is only for takeout, but the staff is quick, and everything is packaged beautifully. It makes for the perfect dessert on the go! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place for cake lovers! I visited with friends and we all tried different flavors. My favorite was the chocolate cheesecake, rich but expertly balanced. The only drawback was that it was a bit pricier than expected given the portion size. Do come early as the line can get long, but it's worth the wait for the delightful experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time trying Uncle Tetsu and I was amazed! The cheesecakes are airy and have a lovely sweetness without being overwhelming. Best enjoyed a bit chilled. I found the staff to be very welcoming and helpful. It would be nice to have a seating area but the packaging is cute enough to take home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a dessert that’s somewhat different yet familiar. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently brought my family to Uncle Tetsu and it was a hit! Everyone enjoyed the original cheesecake, especially my children! It was such a refreshing change from the heavy cheesecakes we usually have. I appreciated how friendly the staff were, making the experience even more pleasant. However, I did notice the space is quite small; only takeout, which was a bit disappointing as we would have loved to sit and enjoy our treats there. " (*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*)
