Used to like this place but it’s been a few years since going. We found most of the food was Not fresh My meat tasted like it was either cooking all day or microwaved and everything was either salty or tasteless.

New ownership here and despite the claim to the contrary, there are differences. The portion size of the wienerschnitzel was as before but the salad was bland and too basic. The apple strudel was a shrunken facsimile of its former self. Disappointing.

We have been there before and brought another couple with us. We all loved the food, and the portions were huge, each couple took home a doggy bag for a next day lunch or dinner. The service was also professional and friendly. We will go back. I highly recommend Uncle Lui’s.

Under New Ownership! Food still excellent! They need more people to help with the service. They had only one person taking orders and serving. She was overwhelmed. Great lady, but, she can not do it all alone.
