Good food, decent portions, but overprice. Fast service once seated. Wait times are Looong! Waited over 1.5 hour outside cold weather. Wish there's feedback on wait times in the scheduling app or from staff. Wish they'll advertise their online scheduling online before arriving at the restaurant.

This is a great little breakfast spot with an Asian tilt. Overall good food. I especially enjoyed their skirt steak which came out flavorful and really juicy. Parking was relatively easy to find on the street and we waited maybe 10 mins for a seat at around 11am on a weekday.

I was craving Longanisa alongside the traditional Filipino breakfast so after reviewing a few menus I chose Uncle Mike’s. I wish I had tried them sooner because EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING!!! I got curbside the food was ready before the designated time and the service couldn’t be better. I ordered the Steak and Tocino combo with a side of Longanisa because I’ve never tried Tocino before. The meal came with complimentary rice soup, Filipino porridge, and Chocolate rice for a sweet treat. The portions are so generous I got full half way through everything so I’ll have enough left over to indulge in tomorrow for breakfast. I love Uncle Mike’s and I will be returning very soon. If the food and service was this amazing by way of takeout then the dine in experience will be just as good if not better.

Food was good even though the portion was almost too big for breakfast but can’t really complain on that. Out of everything I order I like the complimentary (Lugaw) porridge the most! It was light but packed with flavor of ginger, garlic and a bit of lemon!I enjoy the no frills laidback atmosphere of the place. Went in on a Sunday and was able to get a table without reservations is a plus to my experience!

Solid place for filipino food. There was a line when I went for lunch at 1pm but we only waited about 20 mins. We also ordered extra garlic rice and took it home with left over meats.
