Uncle Af's in Agoura is one of the go-to places that students and families have been going to in the area for years. It's located in the small to medium size outside shopping plaza in Downtown Agoura and right next to the elementary school and high-school. The same owner has been serving customers for years and is always a delight to talk to. My boyfriend and I came here the other day to grab lunch to-go and bring it to the beach to eat. We ordered and it didn't take too long to get our food, as I also peeked next door at the consignment store. They did pack it a little different than I thought they would, putting both sandwiches that we ordered into one aluminum tray with the fries on top, but that's alright. That being said, we ordered two sandwiches, some fries, and drinks (they have cold or room temperature). The chicken burrata with pesto is always my go-to and is so good! It has a classic taste that never gets old, and the flavors in the ingredients all mesh well together. My boyfriend got the Prosciutto Panini and he said he really enjoyed that one, too! *One note is that a good amount of years ago, the owner used to make his own teas and juices for customers; they were always so fun to try. If you're a local and you haven't been yet, what are you waiting for? I'd recommend going for lunch. If you're visiting the area, it's also worth stopping by since Agoura doesn't have many of their own small businesses and restaurants (especially affordable ones that are good.) read more

Uncle Af's - Paninis and Fries - Sandwiches Near Me - Agoura Hills, California

Owned by the cutesttt Persian(? I think?) elderly couple - such kind ppl and service and very good food! They make everything fresh on the spot. - Mother got the Olivieh and it was chicken/egg/pickles/lettuce/tomato - so good and tangy and refreshing! - I got Zaboun panini and it was sooo good like beefy cheesy with pickled onions. Lowk a bit heavy but we each split our sandwiches half half so the freshness of the half of the Olivieh was perfect. Vibe chill Decently-priced too, would def come back to try the other sandwiches! read more

Amazing! First time visitors today and will be back. We ordered the club (I opted for baguette) and the cold cut. Both were super good. After we ordered several people recommended the firecracker turkey sandwich. I ordered a side of the special sauce that goes on the one and added it to my sandwich. O M G it's a must!! Next time I will order that sandwich to try. The owner was meticulous in making our sandwiches. No joke it was put together perfectly. You can tell he takes great pride in his food and it tasted that way too. read more

I've tried Uncle AF twice now, and both experiences were pretty different so here's my honest take. The first time, my friend picked up food and brought it to me. We tried one of their top sellers, the Firecracker Chicken, plus a turkey sandwich (can't remember the exact name). The turkey sandwich was okay but a little dry, I wasn't sure if it had mayo/garlic or some kind of sauce because it felt like it needed a little more moisture. The Firecracker Chicken, though, was truly fire flavorful and really good. That first experience made me excited to come back and dine in. The second time, we went on a Saturday afternoon. There were a few people there, but we ended up waiting about five minutes before anyone came to the register since everyone seemed to be in the back. I believe this is a Mom/Pop/Family owned business but it was a little awkward just waiting around trying to get someone's attention. We ordered the Firecracker Chicken again, and my friend got another chicken sandwich I don't remember the name it was some chicken thigh sandwich. Oh we also ordered a side of onion rings $8.00 though for onion rings. Honestly, complete rip off and it was a small portion and they weren't even that good. The owner was very nice and even gave me a complimentary iced tea that he said is one of their popular drinks great gesture, although personally I wasn't a big fan of the tea. Food-wise, this time just didn't hit the same. The Firecracker Chicken tasted very different from the first time I had it, and unfortunately neither of us really loved our sandwiches. Oddly enough, I took my sandwich home and ate it a couple hours later, and it tasted way better than when it was fresh maybe the flavors settled in or maybe their panini-style sandwiches just work better slightly cooled. Overall, the service and friendliness were great, and I can see why people enjoy this place. For me, the consistency just wasn't there between visits. I'd say it's more of a 3.5-star experience, but rounding up to 4 because there's definitely potential and some really strong flavors when they're on point and service. But all in all it was good, wouldn't be my top choice when in the area. read more

Very good sandwich shop operated by a super friendly couple. It's a pleasant change of pace from the typical Italian deli sandwiches, which I love. Got the LA Rams and Af's Cold cut sandwiches.

First off, what an amazing sandwich!! I popped in during lunch after having heard of this place many times and it did not disappoint. The service was friendly and the sandwich was prepared quickly (not many people at the time). The restaurant itself is small but there is plenty of seating and it has a unique look to it. I was pleased that it was also very clean. I ordered the Firecracker Chicken sandwich which is spicy, for those with a low tolerance, proceed with caution. It was made using a Ciabbata bun that was lightly toasted on the exterior but perfectly soft on the interior. The chicken itself was well seasoned and the veggies/avocado tasted fresh. The firecracker bacon and the firecracker aioli were definitely the star of the show. It provided the perfect level of spice (for me) and the bacon was crisp so it added a crunchy component to the inside of the sandwich. I would 1000% order this sandwich again. However, I would be doing myself a disservice by not exploring the rest of the menu. Bonus points because they carry my favorite sparkling water! Thinking of stopping by? I wouldn't second guess it. read more

Uncle Af's is as good AF! We shared the LA Rams panini and it was so tasty. A bit spicy, bacon crunch was nice, and the chicken thigh being shredded really enhanced all the flavors. At around $18 for one panini it is not cheap but if you share it, it is both filling and pretty cheap for lunch at under $9 each. read more

I just found out about Uncle Af's. This sandwich spot is tucked away off Kanan in a retail strip center. I went with the chicken burrata sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. The sandwich consists of grilled chicken topped with avocado, pesto, and tomato on a toasted caibatta bread. The chicken was well seasoned, and the pesto had fresh basil. The bread was nicely crisp and toasty. The ambiance is quite casual. There are a couple places to sit inside and outside. The sandwiches are made fresh, so they take a little bit of time to come out. They're worth the wait! read more

We stopped by on our way to another destination and are so happy we did. We had the vegetarian and the Mona Lisa páginas with fries and dolmeh. Everything was delicious, meticulously prepared. And best of all you can tell it was made with great love and care. The customer service was excellent. And though we do not live nearby, we still plan on stopping by again next time we drive through Agoura Hills. Thank you! read more

I just had the best sandwich and onion rings in my life. We have been meaning to try this palce for a long time. The Prosciutto Panini with burrata cheese on a perfectly toasted Ciabatta bread was insanely good. The Onion Rings were gigantic and fried to perfection as well. No beach lunch in the future will be taken without this food. read more

Very good sandwich best price and flavor get the firecracker chicken and make sure you leave the bacon

We were met with the utmost hospitality from the moment we walked in. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our experience great. We were offered their house-made Arnold Palmer, which was refreshing and perfectly balanced. The sandwiches completely blew me away. I tried the Chicken Firecracker Panini and the Super Turkey, and both were packed with flavor and perfectly toasted. The ingredients tasted fresh, and every bite had the right mix of texture and seasoning. Uncle AF's has mastered the balance of great food, excellent service, and a comfortable atmosphere. It's the kind of place that instantly makes you want to come back. Make sure to try their onion rings or crispy house fries. We will be back! read more

If you haven't been to Uncle Af's, are you even living your best Agoura Hills life? This place is a total local gem--the kind of spot you almost want to keep a secret, but the food is too good not to brag about. The menu is stacked, but let's talk about the Chicken Salad. It's not just "good"--it's "I-might-need-to-order-a-second-one-for-the-drive-home" delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and hits the spot every single time. Whether you're a regular or just passing through the 91301, do yourself a favor and stop by. Your taste buds will thank you, even if your kitchen starts feeling a little neglected. Definitely worth the hype! read more

So glad we picked up some lunch on our way to the beach! Jim G. and I picked the LA Rams Panini and were pleasantly surprised by all the flavors in the sandwich. It was also surprising that the chicken thigh was shredded, but it did allow the meat to absorb all the flavors. When we arrived, two people were working furiously in the kitchen and one group had ordered ahead of us and were waiting for their order. The gentleman who took my order was very kind and we enjoyed the many positive affirmations posted on the walls while we waited for our sandwich to be made. The wait was also good, since that means they were making our food fresh. The sandwich was $18, which can be a bit pricey, but we shared the sandwich. Good value and we were stuffed! Great place for tasty food! read more

A fantastic spot run by just two people--likely a husband and wife duo--who are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Watching them work felt like a show in itself. The bread was outstanding--perfectly toasted to a super crispy exterior while staying light and fluffy inside. It had just the right thickness, flat and thin yet still substantial. The sandwich was very sizable, made with high-quality ingredients, and everything worked together beautifully. I especially loved the mushrooms paired with my shredded beef tongue--a unique combination that was absolutely delicious. A must-try for anyone who appreciates a well-crafted sandwich! read more

Was hungry for a sandwich and wanted to try something new, when Yelp presented Uncle Af's I was intrigued, so I stopped by to grab lunch on a Wednesday just before noon. The parking lot was pretty crowded but I was able to find a space not too far from the restaurant. There is some limited outdoor seating facing South, and a small counter with stools inside, and several small tables. The place is well lit, and has counter service. I really liked the music they were playing, it was some classical and jazz. Overall a pretty nice vibe. I ordered the Chicken Firecracker sandwich and an iced tea. They have two kinds of iced tea, their house special, and black. I had the black tea, and it was really excellent, I will have to try the house special because the normal black tea was some of the best iced tea I have ever had, very fresh and flavorful but not bitter, just refreshing. The real star of my visit was the sandwich. Thin grilled pieces of chicken breast served on ciabatta bread with arugula, chili glazed bacon, avocado, and a spicy aioli... this was the best hot panini sandwich I have ever, EVER, had, bar none. In fact, this was the best hot sandwich I have ever had. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the combination of the bacon with a kick, the avocado, and the arugula with the aioli... it was absolutely incredible. I will usually eat half a sandwich at lunch and save half for later, but I devoured this whole thing. It was incredible. This place does appear to be a family run business, and there aren't a ton of people working there, so don't expect a fast-food experience... but the (short) wait is so worth it, the food is really incredible. I can't wait to come back and try the Chicken Burrata sandwich and those famous onion rings! If you are in the area, don't miss out on this gem! read more

Uncle AF's got me feelin like donald duck over here...taste was good but the portion is a joke. so i've been trying to find my new favorite spot in Agoura for lunch and. i was craving a prosciutto sandwich so i called in my order. the sandwich doesn't come with pesto so i added a side, my total coming to almost $18 with no tip. the bread was really good and fresh but i can't believe how skimpy they are. this was such a waste of money, i ended up combining both halves to make a semi decent half sandwich which somewhat filled my craving. yes i took out the tomato but i put it back for the second pic. The nearly 5 star reviews led me to Uncle Af's so i'm very disappointed. read more

2nd time eating here. Had my brother bring me the first time specifically for the firecracker chicken panini. That was about 3 weeks ago and I've been dreaming of it since. I guess next time I will try something else just to explore more, or maybe take my brother back so we can order a firecracker sandwich and something else to share. read more

We live about 3 hours north of Los Angeles and we're so happy that this is where we decided to have lunch before making the trek home. Worth hopping off the 101 to come here, the food was delicious.

Let's cut to the chase: the chicken sandwich (#7) I had today? Unreal. Easily one of the best I've ever had. Uncle Af isn't just a chef, he's an artist with a grill and one of the nicest people you'll meet. If you haven't been to this little spot yet, stop sleeping on it. You're missing out big time. I'm already planning my next visit to try whatever magic Alf is cooking up next. Thanks Uncle Af! read more

It gives me no pleasure to ruin the perfect rating of Uncla Af's and go against the prevailing grain of the Yelp community, but one must be honest. Braving the 101 from WEHO to get a panini sounds daring and/or insane, but I heard the hype surrounding Uncle Af's. Uncle AF's serves predominantly Panini's but with a Persian twist, so my taste buds awaited with anticipation. They offer a variety of Panini's; some 'firecracker' hot, some with no heat factor. Ordered the Rams panini, because it sounded bases and Los Angeles AF. The Ram panini can be described as: Ciabatta ,mix of Garlic aioli& firecracker aioli, avocado , Caramelized onions, Chicken Thigh, Raw onions, arugula, green onions, Firecracker bacon, Monterey Jack. A few things discerned right off the back: Ingrediants were quite fresh, sandwich and chicken were super oily with a yellowish hue slick seeping out. The chicken was almost finely chopped in bits of watery-like strings similar to what you'd find in pulled-chicken/pork. This. Doesn't. Work. This particular style is routinely found to be served in a BBQ joint for sandwich options, but a panini? Never seen this before. This gave the sandwich a really gnarly texture; such that it completely ruined the taste and bogs down the review. I hope the owner/manager reads this because had the sandwich been served as a whole thigh or just chopped as even chunks, the panini would have been received well and regarded as nearly perfect. read more

Selling European sandwiches doesn't mean you bring a bad European attitude with it. I am yet to taste the sandwiches, but rudeness of the lady taking my order was quite unexpected. My questions were pretty simple to help me decide what to order. Ambience is nothing special, just some ordinary chairs and most orders were takeout anyway. If the sandwiches are indeed good, fixing service will be good idea while you're fixing some sandwiches. read more

SO GOOD! One of my favorite sandwich shop! The people that works there was so friendly and so attentive. Excellent customer service!! My fiancé and I got both got the chicken firecracker sandwiches, it was crispy and crunchy with the bread. They definitely give you a nice size piece of chicken which we love! Sandwiches were a great size portion as well. I had left overs but I finished that later on that day. Too bad Uncle Af's isn't in other cities. The onion rings and fries were fresh and wasn't too oily and it still has a nice crispy to it. Listen sandwich eaters out there! It's a must try you will fall in love with it! We of course will be back! It's small shop to make sure you come early or else there will be a line. The ambiance of the place is just like any other sandwiches shop. There isn't much seating so come early if you want to sit and eat there. read more

I've been hearing good things about this restaurant so I finally went. Arrived about noon and surprisingly it wasn't busy at all. Given the rave reviews I had expected a long line. I ordered the Super Turkey sandwich. The owner warned that it might be spicy, but I like spicy. It didn't taste spicy at all. It was a delicious sandwich and priced about average. I would definitely order this again or maybe try something new next time. read more
