Uncle Sam's Restaurant is an absolute standout in the world of dining, where exceptional customer service takes center stage alongside delicious cuisine. My recent experience at Uncle Sam's left me not only satisfied but truly impressed by the level of care and attention provided by the staff. Upon realizing I had mistakenly ordered the wrong item, I approached the staff with my error. Despite my assurance that I was prepared to pay for my mistake and didn't expect any replacement, the response I received was nothing short of extraordinary. The gracious lady serving me insisted on ensuring that I left not only fed but genuinely happy. Without hesitation, she took it upon herself to whip up a fresh pizza that surpassed all expectations. This exemplary display of customer service speaks volumes about the dedication and commitment of Uncle Sam's team to ensuring the utmost satisfaction of their patrons. It's rare to encounter such genuine care and generosity in the service industry, and it left a lasting impression on me. Beyond the outstanding service, the food itself was nothing short of perfection. Each bite of the freshly made pizza was bursting with flavor, a testament to the culinary expertise present at Uncle Sam's. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Uncle Sam's Restaurant not only for its delectable cuisine but also for the unparalleled customer service that sets it apart. Whether you're a local or just passing through, a visit to Uncle Sam's is an absolute must for an unforgettable dining experience.

This was our 1st time and I called to book as we were in the area and wanted to make sure there was availability. The Lady was very helpful and I asked about Parking which depends on the time of day so allow extra time after 6pm can park for free on the main road, Nothing was too much trouble excellent service Great Selection of food and Very Reasonable prices Very good portions and came out Hot No Complaints from our table Only 1 small niggle the very large table behind us was very Vocal but would definitely Visit again when next in the area...

great atmosphere, food was fantastic combined with brilliant attentive service. Booked table of 6, seated quickly to reserved table. Food was spot on, great portions and really tasty. Train still going round which keeps the nostalgia. Thank you - see you soon.

We love this place. Everything from the service right through to the food is fantastic. After all these years, it’s still consistently busy which says more than a few words on a review ever will.

Food and service were excellent, reasonably priced definitely will be going again. Highly recommend the pizza, margarita as a base but can add various toppings to make your own.

One of the best and most authentic American burger joints I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing, I've been going to Sam's for decades and it never disappoints.

Absolutely loved this place! Great food and lovely staff (however much they're paid, it isn't enough). Had a veggie chili burger, partner had the Baltimore burger. Floats and shakes were on point. Prices bargain for what you get. We will be back!

Saturday lunch<br/><br/>Used to come here years and years ago and remembered the train that goes around. Found myself on Ecclesall Road and saw it and thought wonder if it is still as good. YES it is, food Lesley and plenty of it, excellent service. Will definitely not leave it as long next time.

We stopped for lunch on Ecclesall road at Uncle Sams burger house,where I had eaten many years before.<br/><br/>the place is just as good as it always was ,and I was glad to see the train going round on the tracks above our heads still.<br/><br/>The burger with white cheese (a closely guarded secret apparently)is world class and delicious.The relish tray was left on our table and we enjoyed the busy bustle of the place.<br/><br/>Great service and good value .Enjoyed it immensely.

Bad take a way. Been going here for 30 years, although the quality has declined gradually, it has always been worth another visit. decided to order a take a way as the wife wasnt too well. Nothing difficult, a couple of burgers, cheese sauce and chips. My mouth was watering driving home, at the antisipation of a meaty BBQ'd burger, nicely seared on the grill, well i needn't have bothered. On first inspection, the burgers were a pinky colour, they resembled a dog chew and were dished in the middle. the meat was very finely ground and rubbery, more like sausage meat, and didnt taste of any meat i have ever had, i really dont know what it was, the chips were like wet slugs, probably cause they were wrapped in tin foil, not ideal. Needless to say the dog is having them for her tea tonight. Sorry Uncle Sam, but we wont be coming back, EVER.

Dislike. I used to go a couple of years ago, after having terrible customer service I decided not to go again. However with having a relatives birthday party there recently, I decided to go in with an open mind. The staff struggled with a table of 10, service was slow and wrong orders were sent out. I went for the burrito which was presented poorly and the chilli was bland, however it was considerably better than my partners dinosaur ribs which were incredibly dry and tasteless. I've heard that the burgers are ok, but unfortunately not many other positives other than a novelty train.

I've been visiting Uncle Sams since I was in a High-chair and a bib, over 20 years ago and I don't recall being dissatisfied once! the food is the usual american diner fayre. The burgers are flamegrilled and hefty, the cheeseburgers come with a cheese sauce that's like nothing I've had anywhere else (it might not be to everyones taste but I love it!). I definitely recommend a 'Nachos supreme' (to share) for a starter - fresh tortilla nachos (not dorito-type rubbish you get elsewhere) loaded with chilli con carne, sour cream, guacamole, jalepenos and melted cheese. The decor holds nostalgia for me, though may be considered dated/cluttered to others. Tables can't be booked in advance so its a case of waiting in the bar when busy, which it often is, but I think its worth the wait!

I hear this resturant used to be good but when we went it was just me and my girlfriend in there... Heard the burgers were good but we found they were not very tasty and the cheese sauce was discusting... It's a nice little place but needs some paint.

Uncle SAMs, like some American resturants in sheffield, can be a bit hit and miss but they make a hearty chilli to spicy nachos. Good 6/10
