If you want a good cheese steak and good wings, go here. If you want good French fries and good pizza, go here. Uncle Sam's has been consistently good for more than 30 years. When I want a cheese steak, this is my go-to spot. Nothing fancy, just fantastic. read more

2nd time for take-out: French fries-OK Onion rings-OK Boneless chicken wings - NOT OK. whatever, or however they prepare their chicken, they are doing it all wrong. Chicken was dry/ hotter than hell/ dry. The guy working the cash register was rude/ obviously uninterested in doing his job. read more

Randomly ordered here for a quick game night pizza and apps. I didn't love that their menu doesn't exactly layout what goes into some of their appetizers. I had to assume there was meat and ask for there to be none. Luckily they took out their tenders and replaced it with other of the appetizer options. Anyways, the kids loved it and it was a great value too. The people who gave us the order were friendly and were the ones who let us know that they evened out our apps. Very happy to have ordered here and look forward to ordering here again! read more

When placing an order don't go by the prices on the website, they are double of what they have posted.

Good food prepared to your liking. Frequent place for lunch and dinner. Thin crust white pizza is soooo good, so good!

The pizza here is good but we've ordered it twice and both time they messed it up pretty bad . One pizza was burnt and the other almost raw . You would think if you get a loaded pizza, they would start that one before a thin cheese pizza.. I think if they get better staff, maybe staff that could read properly they could probably have great pizza. And when you bring it to the management attention, they're not exactly nice about it. Maybe the third time is the charm? We shall see . What? read more

WE HAVE BEEN eating in, picking up and taking out for years, out R last order was nothing short of disappointing. We know the financial o pacts to business.. Sadly the less than half filled Steak, mushroom and cheese were less than appealing and truly felt like we got rolled.. I know business or tough but if you raise prices and give customers the less. They will not return. DUE TO LACK OF VALUE... Truly sad seeing another empire fall to the depths of cheating customers by charging more and delivering less... read more

Good food, cold beer and great service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I personally enjoy the old time feeling of a tavern environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Been coming here for 27 years! Terrible last experience with the owner all over the coupon for $5.00 on an online order for our pizza was not discounted due to program error from rest. Had plenty of $5.00 coupons in paper from his boxes of the previous orders, but the owner refused to discount the order for my wife's pizza. We have spent 1000's of dollars on food from here & this is how we were paid back over being such a loyal customer for decades. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We have overlooked the disrepair state of the restaurant due to our loyalty & we liked their wings & pizza.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Also we had a car club give them lots of business over the years from our monthly meetings. Unfortunately, the owner walked away from my wife & said he could do nothing for the $5.00 to make it right due to order application on line. If, I was the owner I would have said thank you for all your business over all of these years & happily given you the $5.00 discount on your her $37.00 order. read more

I have had a many experiences at Uncle Sam's, all of them good. I recently ordered an Italian grinder and was immediately transported back to my childhood in New England. It was a memorable experience and I will return again. read more

The cheeesesteaks here are legendary!! Cheesy steak, chewy bread, mushrooms and onions and peppers all steaming hot wrapped in the paper and foil...... It will destroy your appetite and leave you with a heavenly food coma. read more

I placed an order through a food delivery service for lunch today. I have a very busy job and very often not able to leave my desk... Today was one of those days. I placed an order for an individual white pizza, but received a phone call from the manager stating that their pizza oven went down and she offered to make me something else. Because I have a severe tomato allergy, we talked about different sandwiches she could make that would be safe for me to eat. We decided on a Philly cheesesteak sandwich and again we reiterated my tomato allergy. However, when I received my delivery, the sandwich was obviously cut with a "dirty" knife that had tomato sauce on the blade. Luckily, I was able to see the smear of sauce on the bread and the wrapper before I ate it. When I called the manager back, she was apologetic and offered a credit, but a lot of good that does me now. Also, if a restaurant is so careless with preparing orders with a food allergy, I don't think I will be going there again. Food allergies are serious and this blatant disregard (and basic sloppiness) cannot be overlooked. read more

Uncle Sam's - Someone used a "dirty" tomato sauce covered knife to cut a Philly cheesesteak sandwich for a customer with a tomato allergy??? - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

So bad, I had to go lay down with what I hope is just a stomach ache. Just nasty greasy food , Cheese steak sandwich , really bad! However the server was excellent! read more

Great food.... Will enjoy Uncle Sams. We have the pizza and a calzone and a salad. They were all great.

I like their pizza and often order the Italian Grinder. Today on Grub Hub, it said their chicken sandwich was popular, so I thought I'd try it. Disgusting. Over stuffed with cubed chicken and super dry, except when you get down to the melted cheese. I won't order that again. Overall, it's typical bar food, but good for pizza and some sandwhiches read more

Haven't been here in over 15+ years. Still serving up yummy cheesesteaks. I forgot how big they are. Ordered a half size, and took a quarter home. They even sell face masks and gaters with their logo. I'm happy to see they are surviving. They have been a fixture for decades. Our waitress was very kind to my kid. I will definitely stop in again when in town. read more

A north Phoenix institution that has had there ups and downs for sure.... We ordered the white pie, while the cheese was not spread well on the pie, it was still pretty good. Also had the antipasto, it was full of yummy meats and cheeses; half is plenty for two! The place has a pizzeria style ambience that is the usual if ya know what I mean. Ooooh and the Chianti was DELICIOUS; best part of the meal hands down, wish I wasn't driving I'd of had another and would go back just for that :D Miranda works there and she is a rock star! So happy to see her :) One thumb up Uncle Sams!! You can trust me, I'm in the business ;D read more

Very disappointed with the food. I ordered a salad and asked the server to make sure that it had plenty of mix veggies and not just lettuce. It was all lettuce with one slice of tomatoe and two small pieces of green peppers. The lettuce was old and brown. They charge me $8.50 for it. My wing where dry with very little sauce and my fries where not cooked all the way. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bench seat is all wires and no cushion.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very disappointing read more

It SADDENS me to write this review to a place I've gone to for over 37 years. Service is always great as is the food; however, unbeknownst to me the wings I ordered were $18!! I order my usual wings, half sandwich and pizza to go then got BLOWN AWAY with the tab. Yup, $18 for wings. I guess I've been programmed over the past few months to price hikes around $2-$5 on some items. So be warned to view the menu for prices. read more

It's been years since my Last visit.. This dine in was better than last from what I can recall as far as taste of food goes. Came and had dinner with my mom we shared the combo appetizer of fried zucchini & mushroom. Still just as delicious as I remember!! I also ordered the Individual order of Hot Wings which is a 6 piece bone-in. They were pricey ($10) but very tasty! The sauce flavor (Hot) was good & had a lingering hot/spicy taste after the initial bite. If you love spicy, I definitely recommend. I also got a quarter size of the chicken sandwich (mushroom-pepper-cheese-Chicken) on a white Italian roll. I think the bread was my favorite! You can add sweet or hot peppers to it. I got the sweet thinking they were the banana peppers (because I don't find those hot) but I got it backwards I guess.. either way still a nice option. Sandwich was good. A lil dry for my taste so I threw in some ranch on it. I needed a sauce!! Just my preference. Sandwich was good still without. My mom ordered a roast Beef Grinder and a lrg fry to share. She loved everything she ate. She said it was Bomb Overall experience was great! Service was great! Definitely would recommend if you're looking for that bar food type spot! Wings, pizza, sandwiches, & fried sides! read more

It was disappointing picking up an order here and the level of disrespect i've received due to the amount of time i've waited, and after i asked twice how much longer on the order- obviously staff was busy and overwhelmed i waited another 15 minutes- totaling my time to 40 minutes. I understand this is locally owned, obviously showing their attitude of zero F's given. One of the kitchen staff members made the comment "man i don't know how you guys do it" pointing at me standing at the front counter simply just waiting to be helped. There was zero communication within my interaction here as i asked for my order and the girl makes zero eye contact, turning her back to me, I think trying to find my order? It was a good 12 min I was standing at the counter without being asked if I was helped because quiet frankly, I didn't even know if someone was helping me. The girl looked so lost and overwhelmed, I was lost with her. When i came back in to ask for one of the man's (with the glasses) name who i thought was the manager and might be willing to help me, instantly went off on me- completely loosing his composure saying how i knocked off a brochure on the counter while I was exiting- grabbing my HUGE order (4 bags and a few drinks- my hands were absolutely full) and wanted to accuse me of obstruction? So much drama, i would never recommend anyone here because staff is so young, obviously doesn't care about customer connection and I really wouldn't doubt the owner doesnt do anything - assuming their attitude to go to such a level of disrespect to make a customer feel as uncomfortable in that restaurant as i did- a complete hostile, high school like environment. Completely unprofessional and childish. I hope the owner finds new staff before he looses anymore business. It's a shame to see a Phoenix classic restaurant like this change into something so vulgar. Do better After the altercation I left and sat in my car on the phone for about 15 minutes and I notice in the corner of my eye someone trying to get my attention- and as the kitchen is flooded with orders, they managed to have time to make a sign to wave in front of the window where I was parked, reading "food is getting cold" The level of maturity. Embarrassed for this business read more

I used to frequent this place moons ago, so today, I wanted some nostalgia. Normally I give everything I've ever eaten from here a thumbs up. Today. Not so much. The people working there are all extremely nice. My food, I got the chicken, mushroom, pepper and cheese sandwich. I was so excited about this sandwich, but when I got home and tore into it, it was really blah. Totally bland, not enjoyable at all. Hopefully this is a one off, but...you be the judge! This is a good spot to go watch some sports read more

Went for a nice, chill Sunday dinner and it was super cozy. Food was great and service was attentive. It was also pretty busy for a Sunday evening, so that was nice to see as well! Will definitely be back, I love your guys' grinders! Thank you for providing a relaxing atmosphere and great food. read more

I get their white pizza with bacon, and it's one of the best pizzas in Phoenix. I've been coming here for over 34 years. It's a neighborhood place that we love having here. Restaurants come and go, but Uncle Sams stays and the great food and friendly neighborhood staff keep us coming back. Thanks good people for staying read more

This place is pretty good for the price. My friend and I have been coming for several years. We've both been pretty busy so it's been a couple years but not much has changed. The food is always good but the service is still lacking. I ignore the service cause it's not bad, it's just not great. The food makes up for it though. My friend and I always get a few things so we share so it's best of both worlds. I love that they have several portion sizes for most things. This time we got the zucchini and mushroom combo, italian grinder, chicken fingers and tried out the new Philly cheesesteak fries which were tasty. The meal was good overall. The up charge for a side of ranch is a bit outrageous. The server should mention it's a freaking dollar for a side of sauce haha but oh well. I felt like we were bothering our server but getting sat in her section, but like I mentioned we come for food now for a wow service. The service isn't bad so I let it slide. Overall, I'll keep coming back! read more

We've had grinders and calzones here. Both were decent and no per say complaints, but nothing amazing and the last was still cold inside. Seems like staff are always cleaning and busy when we've shown up twice (which is good that they're cleaning), but we're always hunting down someone. Staff are nice and police when they do assist though. read more

I used to go here every week between 05-09. When I moved out of state, I haven't been back since last week. As a positive, the food tastes the same as it did 13 years ago. That, in and of itself, is a tough feat to achieve in terms of consistency of quality. The wings were big, super sauced, and tasted like I remember. The pizza had the same sausage and pepperoni and the crust was soft, yet crunchy. Where this place lacks is in service and cleanliness. The floors need to be swept, our table was sticky before sitting down, and there is an overflow of beer all throughout the place. Combine this with the clutter all over the walls (the sports teams from the 1980s-1990s was cool as a child but now projects mental disorder) makes this place very busy, despite being actually such... there were 4 tables, three current and one leaving, in the hour we were there. The restrooms had water all over the counter and it smelled like pee. For the service, our waitress (I won't provide her name), seemed aloof. She got my order wrong, questioned the fact that we wanted wings with X sauce and basically convinced (read: forced) us to get them another way. She left to go on a delivery run... so when my pizza came out wrong, they told the other server (I won't say his name either), to let me keep it and they'll make another one... WHICH THEY GOT WRONG TOO. I told him what I ordered, he repeated it back to me wrong, I corrected him, and I assumed he'd get it right. At that point, after two failed attempts, I just gave up in bothering trying to get it a third time (I didn't want to make the kitchen mad and have them think I was the problem). I can see why this place is now basically empty after always being full to the point of a wait decades ago... It's funny. My dad thought "service was great, for this type of place" and the food sucked. I had the complete opposite experience. Food was everything I loved but the staff was abysmal. Will I come back? Maybe in another few years when I visit AZ. The rewards program is $5 for every $200 spent, not including tax, tip, or alcohol. That's a pitiful 2.5%. Most places are 5-10-20%. At least it's better than nothing. Oh, and the new wooden floors are nicer than the dingy dirty carpet they used to have. Edit: to the owners response. No I didn't get a manager because I've worked in food service for 12 years and I did not want to make an issue over a pizza. I tried to rectify it with the server. I guess I should have spoken to a manager, but after my mother did so many times when I used to go with her as a preteen and teenager, it always turned into an argument and I did not want to be a part of that. Prior bad experience, so I tried to just let it go. I appreciate your concern and my suggestion for "making it right" is to get employees that actually listen to your guests, don't make them repeat themselves 2-3x, and to have any "remakes" come out actually be correct. Im glad your food is still as good as always. I understand your "higher" prices. Not even adjusting for inflation, the cost of food versus labor, rent, utilities, etc, is roughly around that 30-50% mark so while some of my friends find your wings to be $$$, I think they're priced competitively, accurately, and fair. read more

Went today and had an awful experience. We ordered Boneless Wings and they were dry, overcook and hardly sauced! The Cheese Steak was kinda warm and not hot. I thought the last time was amazing. The owner son not sure if he can cook.... read more

Uncle Sam's - Entrance - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I first started going to uncle sams in the 90s during high school. It's everything you hope it to be. I haven't been there in years. My buddy recently moved into the Tatum and Shea area so mountain bike rides at squaw peak trail 100 & uncle sams are back in the mix. Really the only good beer they have on tap is lagunitas. The rest is garbage coors/bud/miller from the 70s. The special grinder with grilled meat is amazing as always. My only complaint is this is probably the only place to get amazing wings in phoenix that doesn't have blue cheese dressing. I honestly don't know anyone who eats wings with ranch but my guess it's the same person that drinks coors/bud/miller. If your clientele thinks Budweiser and Taco Bell is good then I guess cater to them. read more

Wow wow wow! We never go wrong with Uncle Sam's. I have lived in Arizona more than 20 years, been going here the whole time, and I have never had a bad experience at this restaurant. Their menu is absolutely massive. Most items come in a variety of sizes so you can over indulge (or not) as much as you like! We always end up coming home with leftovers. The staff is fun and friendly and there are more than a dozen televisions showing all kinds of sports stations. It's a great place to hang out with friends and family. read more

We come here once in a while when we run out of ideas, lol... It is always OK, not great, not awful. This time we came here just for an appetizer and I found it interesting how plain and boring their appetizer platter is. The food was OK (if you do not care about eating healthy), but the presentation was blah. : ) read more
