Uncle’s Fish Market & Grill
I’ve been here twice, both times with really disappointing food. I went for lunch this week and had Fish & Chips. It should be called Fish Sticks and Fries. The fish of the day was Ono. I feel horribly sorry that a fish died to make this bad lunch for me. It seems almost sacrilegious to ruin Ono in this fashion. It was heavily breaded and then fried to hell and back. The result was a crunchy piece of dried up fish that required a sip of drink for every bite or gobs and gobs of tartar sauce. The fries on the other hand were under cooked. Limp and lifeless, fat and soggy. Exactly what I hate in a French fry. To add insult to injury the basket of food was $12.95 and not all that generous. As the joke goes “The food was terrible........and SUCH small portions.”
As far as I’m concerned two strikes and you’re out. I won’t be back to Uncle’s.
