Romunda RatliffAugust 28, 2016Jerk chicken was nice and tender...just wish it were a little more spicier...and a little more seasoning on the cabbage too...my first Kola Champagne...love love love it!!- Angela VaughnFebruary 21, 2016Call ahead and then get in line early in case there's a girl that says, "we don't have your order, you sure it was the Hyde Park location?" Also get the jerk catfish and wings!
Forget Ja'Grill, Uncle Joe's is where it's at! My favorite restaurant for over 3 years, jerk wings and curry goat are the best!
Gerri FAugust 5, 2019Great food, but be prepared for a very, very long wait. With a little organization, they would be such a great place. I’ll have to give them another long break.
MrsDontplay 1February 8, 2013I guess the day & time matters. I go midday & call ahead. I ONLY order wings. Gonna have to try the Jerk Catfish next time.
Samantha HillMarch 4, 2016The bbq jerk chicken is amazing and grilled fresh per order. It's a must if you love bbq!- Jerk catfish dinner is enough for two famished people. Boy, do I love what they do to the catfish!
Jonathan WilliamsAugust 11, 2013Call ahead but still plan to wait. Also...don't expect the friendliest folk taking orders. Food is quality
Get one of the women to take your order, otherwise you may never get your food. Also, always give it an hour when you call in your food, no matter what they tell you
LaToya JacksonAugust 14, 2015Hey Uncle Joe's Jerk Chicken, you should join Freebie! It’s pretty rad and the benefits are great for both you and me. Check it out!
recklesscoder *June 18, 2013On the bone is how chicken should be. One quarter jerked and some rice and peas.
Check out the lunch specials mon - fri 11am - 2pm...decent prices for a good amount of food.- Get the oxtail dinner and don't forget the catfish dinner, fye
- robin banksMay 15, 2018The chicken is good, but the staff is very unpleasant, ghetto, and nor friendly at all. I work few doors down and I refuse to patronize this place.
Damian DensonSeptember 18, 2011With bootleg DVDs and CDs for sale in the lobby, I surmise that there are still those who have no clue how to work the internet...
All over The worldJanuary 30, 2011I called in an order at 3 an they said it would be ready at 430 an I'm here an it's not ready they say 40 more minutes I'm never coming back #bad business

"Called in the order& showed up 30 mins later still I had to wait atleast another 30-40 mins or more for my order. The people eating there appeared priority. 1st time trying this place. May be my last"

"Order online and pay the $5 convenience fee if you're picking up, it'll be worth it. Delivery downtown is also a great option. I"
