“ Uncle Louie's is a nice neighborhood restaurant. The staff is friendly and the food is good. They get crowded so make a reservation if you can. ”
“ Service, food, staff, and atmosphere is always top notch.. We don't make it over here often enough. ”
“ We decided we wanted Italian this week and I am always up for trying somewhere we haven't previously been. I can't recall how I heard of Uncle Louie's, but I am always searching out restaurants around the valley. Because they have Happy Hour daily, we decided to chose one Bruschetta option and one of the small plates options. Both were very good. I could have used a little more fig jam on the bruschetta, but the bread was the perfect cook. Often it's far too hard, but this was perfect. The calamari was delicious! Not even breaded, but lightly dusted with seasoning and just so much better than a heavy breading. Highly recommend! For entrees, my husband went with the veal Marsala which is his favorite Italian dish. He enjoyed it. Not sure it was the best he's ever had, but definitely not even close to the worst. I had the rigatoni Bolognese, which they state in the menu is the "best in Phoenix". I'm not sure about that. It was good, but nothing made it outstanding. I also added 2 meatballs which were really good, and I am admittedly pretty picky about meatballs. We did also get dessert to-go. Tiramisu for me, which is now 2 nights of dessert because I couldn't finish it, and cheesecake for him which he finished the first night. Overall a nice place with good food. Not fancy and not very big. We tend to eat early so had no trouble getting a table. They open at 4 and we were there shortly after. No fresh grated Parm, but there is a shaker of cheese and red paper flakes in the table. Overall, food and service were very good. We wouldn't shy away from going back again. ”
“ Great food and service at a fair price. Really liked the salad, pasta and pizza. Great server and staff. Awesome dinner ”
“ Wow! A hidden gem but no secret! The place was full on a Friday night but service did not disappoint nor did the food. Being first timers, there was so much to choose from but we had the chicken parm and rigatoni bolognese. Cute, quant seating and just the right amount of noise. Definitely worth coming back and trying something else on the menu! ”
“ We carried out the New Yorker pizza from this restaurant. It was very flavorful. It was ready when it was supposed to be. I can't wait to go back and try some of the Italian entrees. ”
“ From all the tables greeting each other, it becomes apparent that this is a true neighborhood hang. Wonderful heated patio, well thought out wine and fun pizza and pasta options. ”
“ Amazing service, food, ambiance! We were a group of 10, Morgan took care of us and was excellent. We had Calamari and Garlic bread for app. The wine variety is good. I enjoyed Veal Parm as others their dishes- they also offer Gluten Free Pizza and pasta. Dessert was so good, ricotta cheesecake, gelato and finally - limoncello made in house. Great atmosphere. ”
