Uncle Sun Reviews
I feel like late night asian food is hit or miss, you gotta order correctly. So if you want to love your food from here? Dry Pot Tofu, Crispy spicy chicken (sub fish if you're into that) And the Congee. So good. And I'm hella picky and into typically traditional. Thanks Uncle Sun

Uncle Sun offers delicious and authentic Chinese cuisine with great service, open until 2 AM, making it a convenient option for students and night owls. The restaurant is clean, and customers praise the authenticity of the food, which is not "Americanized." The pad thai is a little different but still good, and the garlic with eggplant is highly recommended. Singapore noodles come in large portions with more heat, and the steamed sweet bean buns are perfect. The mango mousse cake is light and fluffy with a delicate flavor. The young man running the front end is nice but still learning. Customers enjoy the large portions, making it easy to save leftovers, and they happily accommodate gluten-free requests. The chili wontons and mapo tofu are 10/10, and Uncle Sun is noted for being the only place in town to serve authentic mapo tofu with szechuan peppercorn. Customers appreciate the option to make entrees spicy if desired. With a star rating that has improved, Uncle Sun continues to be a favorite for real food at 2 AM.
