Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

With the limited options in town to get a sandwich and a coke. The place is cute with lots of options. There is a table outside in the shade to just people watch as they go about town.

I’ve been going here for years suffering through the rude cashier. But today was just too much and I’m gonna give it a break and take my business elsewhere. We ordered online but she couldn’t find our order and started screaming at us about which...app we used. I said I don’t remember which app we used, I didn’t realize that specifying which app at the counter would make a difference. After much fuss among the counter staff, our order was found already packaged and ready to go. I guess it was just on another table. She literally screamed at me and admonished me for my ignorance. It was a bizarre situation. And then to top it off, they got 50% of the order wrong. We ordered a ham sandwich and they gave us turkey. We ordered tuna salad and they made a tuna sandwich. Hello? Earth to uncles. Bye-bye I’m taking my business somewhere else. See ya!!!!!!!!!More

Service with a snarl. We ordered sandwiches ahead and was told 25 minutes to pick them up. When we arrived they couldn’t find our order and kept us waiting. Mix up happen but no apology for loosing our order just a nasty “we are busy”...as explanation. We are trying to support small businesses right now but don’t need to go out of our way for rude service.More

Just off the train from NYC and needed a bite before driving. What a treat Uncle’s Deli is! Adorable shop with a wonderful menu! The crew was quick and friendly during the lunch rush. The tuna melt on white was grilled to perfection and the...chicken Parmesan sub sandwich was tremendous. Regular soft drinks and lots of chip choices. Wish I had room for the baked goods too!More

Standing here right now, waiting for our bacon, egg and cheeses. Very upset with the customer service. The cashier is very rude!! We simply asked about the price we saw online and the price we were charged. The price on this menu says $2.99 for...a bacon egg and cheese and we were charged $4.50. She angrily replied speak to the manager and then proceeded to shout across the deli asking if the manager was in, which made us embarrassed because everyone was staring at us. One of the cooks said that the manager wasn’t there but he would be in soon. Ofcourse with attitude she looked at us and said wait if you want. So to not keep making a scene my mom and I stepped aside and just waited for our sandwiches to be ready. My mom then was talking to one of the cooks about the bacon being crunchy and she again shouted across the deli that the price for the sandwich is $4.50 and not $2.99 and raised her arms while she was taking another customers order as if we were causing her so much stress from a simple question. Uncle’S Deli Management should really think of replacing this bad attitude cashier. If you look at the other comments I’m not the only one that has complained about her.More

Uncle's in Darien has good food prepared quickly at reasonable prices. Why they let such a rude cashier work in the mornings when people are just starting their day is beyond me. After weeks of responding to her sour personality with pleasantness, as my mother...taught me to do, I am throwing in the towel and taking my business elsewhere. I just don't want to start my day that way. (By the way, the chefs are great and always nice to talk to. Adios amigos!)More

They certainly have anything you could want on a sandwhich for lunch. The lines moove fast. But when I saw a cheese and tomato sandwhich at $10.50 i figure I wouldn't be back often.

We arrived about 15 minutes before closing, so all the grills were turned off and we couldn't order any hot sandwiches. We opted for the Lobster Salad Sandwich and a Seafood Salad Sandwich. Both were very good, and there was a good selection of different...breads. Prices were reasonable and there was a nice area outside to sit and enjoy our dinner as we watched the world go by.More

Uncles is a Darien institution. Hearty sized sandwiches and other lunch items. You won't go hungry ordering from here. Fast service plus some outdoor seating.
