Uncle’s Shack & Grill

A hidden gem with very fresh and high quality seafood. This place seems to get busy too.
I had the tilapia, shrimp and chips and it was crisp and delicious. The store itself looks brand new and is super clean and neat. The owner seems to be very neighborhood friendly also. Love this joint.

Do yourself a favor and go to this establishment. Absolutely amazing. Mouth watering salmon burger.

i already knew i was gonna love this place even before trying it out xoxo
leo, the owner — he has a heart of gold xoxo he is passionate about his food, has spent so much time perfecting his craft, talking with (and really listening to!) his customers and infusing love into his food, he is on top of his game xoxo i asked about a million questions the first time i ordered, and he patiently took the time to thoroughly answer (above and beyond!) my questions and it really helped me decide what i wanted. (and everything i tried was delicious!) i will try more and report back, soon! :)

Stopped by on a whim and was not disappointed, the fish & chip delicious, the mango wings was great my 4yrs old couldn’t stop licking her fingers lol enough said.

I’ve had a few items from Uncle’s. Flavor has been consistent along with the great customer service. I often get the whitings, shrimp and chips. I always end up eating half later because there is so much food. I also like the grilled shrimp salad and the Island Boy smoothie.

I just hit a three-​peat in this place… For brunch I had the spicy mango wings with fries and their tropical smoothie. It was really good. I took my daughter there after school and she had the purple banana smoothie (first time she ever finished an entire smoothie) and the chicken fingers. I was pleased both visits… I came in there for dinner like «Here, take my money» I ordered the Tilapia, shrimp and chips (steamed), the salmon burger, sweet wings, and fish tacos. We split the order and I asked everyone for a second opinion… the meal did not disappoint. the portions were right and then some. You can tell that they use quality ingredients because… Man oh Man!!! When you guys visit, do not pass up on the cornbread (I mean it). I had the Brooklyn Cream soda… and the label doesn’t lie, I tasted it and I love it.
I have never had anyone able to convince me to try mussels and I am glad Leo was my first time. .the curry mussels were not shared… no one even knew I had them in my possession, they were delicious. Definitely worth the three trips and waiting for 11:30 am for them to open.
Leo, your vibe was what had me sold from brunch. My daughter was satisfied with her meal and that was enough for me. But I was definitely satisfied with everything I had… I was waiting to take a mediocre bite and it never happened… everything exceeded my expectations. Thank you for making me feel like I was important and as if I was doing you a service, when in all honesty, you’ve given me a go-​to spot that’s not gonna break my pockets or give me the «itis» (that’s quality). We ate and didn’t feel like we were dragging after.
I look forward to not only your expansion but success… See you soon (And you know I mean sooner than you think. .lol)

I’ve liked this place for a while, but never wrote a review. Good food and black owned! The owner also is the delivery person and sometimes he’s brought me sodas and brownies just because! Very nice and very real. The soda is his own brand, as well. The Whitting & Chips is my favorite meal. the fries are always seasoned well!

The rating is based on the location in the neighborhood. Flatbush area really didn’t have a strong fish fry place that was consistent until I discovered Uncle’s.
I ordered delivery last night tilapia, shrimp and chips. The fish is fried in that harlem style way so it wasn’t soggy when it arrived (one thing I was super worried about). Portions are big and the chips are nice and big. Leo took my order on the phone — he was super friendly and threw in an oatmeal cookie and corn bread to try out since it was my first time ordering. Both were really good and the oatmeal cookie really really stood out. Heck — i don’t typically like oatmeal cookies and this one was amazing.
Will be ordering again and again. Wish they stayed open a little later than 8ish.

After reading fellow Unilocalers reviews and being in the neighborhood my boyfriend and i decided to give this place a try and it was 100% worth it! From the excellent customer service to the delicious food this place is a 5 star quality place in this side of Brooklyn. Not only was the service and food amazing the prices are extremely reasonable.

Salmon burger is absolutely delicious and the portion is HUGE. This is not some average cut of salmon. It’s thick, juicy, and grilled perfectly. I also had the pleasure of the owner delivering my food & he was such a nice guy! Other businesses in this area could learn a lesson or two from Uncle’s Shack (both in terms of food AND customer service!)

I ordered delivery; The service was great and delivered before the expected time. However it wasn’t what I ordered. I ordered season fries for my orders and only received regular fries. Big deal? Maybe maybe not I just like to get what I pay & tip for. The food was decent. I’ll probably order again with lower expectations.

Had a food delivery today (11÷6÷2015) the items were well rapped and quite tasty. I especially liked the corn breads round shape. Order from here before and the food is consistently good.

I previously gave this place a mediocre review based on mediocre service. I’m updating my review based on my last delivery. After having a couple bad experiences with this place, I decided to order from here after a couple months. Ordered a burger, fries, fish shrimp and chips, and some jerk wings. Everything was flavorful, although the burger came with no toppings. My and my significant other were satisfied and the order came in a timely manner. Good job guys. I’ll be ordering from you again.

Trying two new dishes from uncle’s and as usual, always delicious!!! Salmon burger and curry mussels… to die for!!!

I ordered delivery from this place and I was not dissapointed. I ordered Jerk Tilapia, Jerk Wings, Beef Burger and Uncle’s Bkack Cherry soda. I really enjoyed the food, the tilapia and wings were absolutely delicious. The burger was nice and juicy and the sodas were really good.

I had the Fried Whiting fried shrimp and fries. Everything was good. Not greasy like fried food tends to be. Great service.

Not bad, not bad at all… Ordered for delivery a BBQ salmon burger and tilapia, shrimp and chips. I was reassured by the man who took my order and the delivery guy that the salmon burger was good, and it really was. The shrimp and fries was good too, I could’ve lived without the tilapia. My total was 19.33, not bad. Also they threw in oatmeal cookies.
Friendly customer service and good food, yea I will be ordering from here again

I go to school by Brooklyn college and I would always order their food. The food is amazing. I love seafood so this place works great for me. Plus you get your moneys worth.

I was working in the area and was in the mood for a good smoothie. Asked around and a fellow Unilocaler suggested Uncles.
Ordered the Island Boy smoothie… Wow! Great flavor to this with a nice mix of fruits and a dash of peanut butter. Front desk person was very nice and cordial. Said there was a special on smoothies (2 small shakes for the price of a large $ 5).
I also ordered the special of the day which was a grilled chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries for $ 5. Both the meal and smoothies were a great deal for this area as well as delicious.
There isn’t much in the way of seating here: 2 barstools and 2 benches along the window. Seating is basically for waiting for your pickup order to go or for having a quick meal there by yourself or with just 1 – 2 more friends. They deliver within the local vicinity. While I waited for my food about 3 lunch orders were called in for pickup or delivery. Try it and please remember to tip! :-)

The customer service in this place is impeccable! Jermaine has this place running like clockwork. Everyone you meet in the place is happy to get food. Its clean and everything is visible. I will definitely be visiting this location again. This is definitely a gem in the neighborhood.
