Uncle Uber's Sammich Shop

One of the best low key sandwiches in all of Deep Ellum!! We tried the Clara Peller Sandwich with the Sweet Potato Waffle Fries and it was absolutely delicious!! If they can add a sauce for the waffle Fries it would take them over the top!! Staff was super friendly and made a great food recommendation. If you're looking for a drink or a quick bite to eat this is a solid stop while in the area.

Over priced disappointment. This is the definition of a dive bar, except we ended up paying $30 for two average sandwiches. I was initially surprised after reading the nearly 1600 positive reviews of this place! Everything looked amazing (see photos) but at the end of the day it needs to taste good. Pros: - large portions - fast service - quality presentation Cons: - overpriced - under-seasoned meat - bland texture - tasted reheated - paid parking - sketchy location - terrible atmosphere I went for lunch with a friend and tried the goat cheese and bacon club and the slow roasted pork sandwich. Both tasted like they made them the day before and heated them up! Very unfortunate experience for such a highly rated establishment. The goat cheese was the only good thing to say about the fist sandwich. Bread was soggy, tomatoes too thickly cut, bacon was cheap, and cucumbers were unnecessary garnish. The fries tasted reheated as well. The pulled pork was disappointingly dry for a rub based meat. No sauce, no marinade, no unique seasoning to speak of. Extremely unoriginal. This is very clearly a bar first and a restaurant second. In summary: either I hit this place on an off day, or this is a mediocre place with inflated reviews from bar patrons. Edit: I went back to make sure it wasn’t an off day, and it was the same the second time. Don’t waste your time or money here.

This is a hole in the wall but absolutely worth checking out!! Our server was running the show and despite doing it all, we had excellent service and the food was fantastic!! Enormous hamburgers, delicious fries, and definitely don’t overlook the sandwich menu! Philly cheesesteak was amazing. I’m looking forward to coming back!

*This is a late post! I’m so behind on posting* This place is feels like the TV Show “Cheers” I am sure this has to be a local lunch hot spot! First thing first! The barkeep was the coolest guy I’ve met in a longtime! He was entertaining and happened to know some of the lyrics to Hanson “MMMBOP” *also there was a patron that sing the entire song* The lemonade here is also amazing & if you’ve read my other reviews you know I love lemonade! The chicken sandwich was much better than the steak sandwich! This is the reason I typically get two meals! I have nothing bad to say about Uncle Uber’s! The place is super lax! And the food is typical bar food! I would definitely say give this place a try!

I had lunch here, it was delicious. I got the chicken salad with alvacado and bacon and habanaro ranch. It was all fresh and juicy, very good romaine. I loved it. Also, I tried 3 different mixed drinks, amaretto, red headed Irish, and Washington and they were all made perfectly. Lauren was our tender/waitress, she was so kind and fast. Absolutely loved it. Also, the parking can be difficult, and it is on a one way street, bit you can pay to park in a lit two doors Down and it's only 4-6$ so not too bad. Tons of other restaurants and stuff around them also. Out of 5 I would give them a 4.7, definitely great for socializing and a quick bite.

Came here for lunch and loved it. We each got a burger. It was flavorful with a great bun. I loved how thin the onions were cut and the sauce was great too. Not sure exactly what “Uber sauce” is but it didn’t taste like the typical special sauce (aka some sort of thousand island variation) that a lot of other burger places have. The fries were great too. You get a lot to an order but they were so good we managed to polish them off. The fountain drink section wasn’t huge but did have a number of specialty sodas to choose from which was a nice surprise. We don’t make it to Deep Ellum often, but this would be our go-to spot for a budget friendly meal in the area.

Update: Back again. Had the shaved ribeye with jalapeños. So so good. What a cool place. I had the bacon and goat cheese sandwich and it was fantastic. My wife had the Happy Hippie sandwich and said it was the best sandwich she's ever had. The hand cut fries were amazing. The service was great and folks were very friendly. Great place.

Ordered a smoking turkey, the Cuban, a double and a side of fries with the habanero ranch for the side sauce. Food came out pretty quick! The smoking turkey has a nice garlic butter toasted bread. The Cuban was done fairly well although bits of the pork were dry. The fries came with a slight cajun like seasoning and were nothing spectacular but were good. They are just french fries so hard to mess those up! The double was the end game. This burger tasted great! I really enjoyed it and this burger is enough to come here for if you're not a fan of the regular sammiches.
