" Amazing experience! Each dish I've had has been delicious! The garlic chicken is so flavorful, I’m always excited for my next visit. I can't recommend it enough for its authenticity. Additionally, the staff is attentive and very friendly. I feel they genuinely care about their customers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Uncle Sun continues to impress! Their longevity noodles are delightful; I always get them every visit. I appreciate the consistency of quality and flavor every time. Their staff also remembers returning customers, which makes me feel appreciated and valued. Highly recommend if you're looking for a cozy place to have a nice dinner! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Uncle Sun last night and I have to say, it was a mixed experience. The food was tasty, I especially liked the beef ho fun. But, I found a piece of metal in my dish which really turned my stomach. I brought it up to the staff, and while they were apologetic, it left a bitter taste in my mouth. I don't know if I'll return after that incident. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am absolutely in love with Uncle Sun’s crab rangoons! Perfectly crispy and not greasy at all. The General Tso's tofu was equally impressive; they really nailed the flavors. I had a bit of a wait for my food, but the results were so good that it was worth it. I’ll definitely be back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was in town for a conference and came here based on the reviews. Well, it didn’t disappoint! I tried the beef hot pot and was surprised at the size of the portion—easily enough for two! The flavors were fantastic. The service was friendly but slow, possibly due to a busy night. Would definitely return next time I’m in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" After many visits, I can confidently say Uncle Sun serves the best wontons I’ve had outside of my grandma’s kitchen! Perfectly balanced flavor with just the right amount of seasoning. I always look forward to my weekly visits and never leave disappointed. Their service is friendly, and the environment is cozy. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've become a regular at Uncle Sun over the past few months. I've tried almost everything on the menu! Everything is consistently well done, with flavors to match. The staff is attentive and friendly, really making the experience special. I always leave satisfied. Highly recommend the Chicken Hot Pot and the potstickers! " (*Curated Review*)
