    It is my first time trying California Taco. Great portions, very reasonably priced, easy online ordering, friendly staff, picked up order, but establishment was very clean and neat. I look forward to returning.

    Burrito - ginormous!!

    I've been wanting to try this newest location which is quite close to me and I will say that I'm quite happy about it! Food was excellent, the service was quick and it was a very good value. We were going to do take out but then decided to eat in. The entire time we were there I noticed a steady flow of people coming in to pick up their food. The hubs had a soft rolled taco and ground beef burrito and I had the shredded chicken enchilada combo. We both enjoyed our meals and had plenty of leftovers for the next day. We also got a slice of their chocolate cake to go. We opted for a container with no cinnamon chips, the cake and frosting was delicious and I must say the chocolate shavings were a nice touch! We made sure to bring home the takeout menu which our daughter put to use the following day! I can see us becoming regulars!

    Our family tried California Taco Shop at the new location in Coventry, we were not disappointed! The decor is very upbeat and welcoming, great layout for a small restaurant. The staff is friendly and helpful, they answered all of my questions as I placed my order. We ordered 3 Supreme Tacos- Homemade Chicken, Carnitas, and Ground Beef, a Carne Asada meal, and churros. The overall meal was fantastic, everything was fresh and well seasoned. The Carne Asada was tender and seasoned perfectly with a side of rice and refried beans. We devoured our dishes, so delicious! The churros were fresh and tasty, served with chocolate sauce. Can't wait to back and try more dishes along with fried ice cream! Highly Recommend!

The staff was harried because of the crowd , however not rude at all. I brought my food home and we devoured it. The fish and chips were good, the batter on the fish light and flavorful, the calamari was tender and good, although the drive home with them in the Styrofoam container made the calamari batter soft and wilted. I returned yesterday for another go at it, the time was mid day on a week day so the crowd was much smaller. I wasn't driving far so the food did not get as soggy as the first time. The fish was light and flakey and the fries were standard fair, nothing to get excited about, however passable for most. I got a better look at the inside too, plenty of tables with satisfied looking customers. The staff was pretty much the same as far as enthusiasm, or lack thereof...I would not say they were rude, but they certainly weren't "friendly". I forgot to take my own photo, so I used their stock which looked exactly like what I ordered. I will return again.

When I arrived, around 3pm I was one of only 2 tables there. It's counter service and the teenagers taking my order were respectful but not overly kind. They didn't tell me I needed to wait for my order as they wouldn't call it out. But, I digress. The restaurant itself is small but clean. Dated in a cute way. You can tell they've been in business for a long time and that's not necessarily a bad thing. I had seen online that they had a scallop and shrimp plate but that wasn't offered today so I settled for shrimp and fish along with a cup of chowder. All this and a bottle of soda cost $40. Not an amazing price but I thought it was reasonable as a treat. My food came out quickly and I started with the seafood chowder. This chowder is amazing. Very creamy, decadent, and full of fish. I can not recommend it enough. The shrimp were also delicious. They were fried very well and moist. Not greasy at all. I recommend those as well. I have conflicting thoughts on the fish. On one hand I know that the English preparation is a heavy batter. I'm okay with that. But this batter was borderline soggy. No crisp to it whatsoever and the fish inside was completely lost to the breading. Which was honestly too bad because the fish itself was nice and flaky. Do I recommend Ye Olde Fish and Chips? Sure. I like supporting small business and I in they add a lot to the area. Would I get the fish again? No. But I will be first in line for the scallop and shrimp plate if it ever comes back to the menu!

We have been here several times & it feels like the kind of diner you grew up going to: cozy seating, familiar faces & that unmistakable "welcome home" energy the moment you walk through the door. For the #BestBreakfastSandwich, I ordered the grilled English muffin with sausage, American cheese & egg. Hubby selected the Western (ham, onions, peppers & cheese). We couldn't not order the absolutely delicious & HUGE side helping of home fries. The breakfast sandwiches were hearty & satisfying. You can tell they rely on fresh, local ingredients where they can because the flavors pop in that unpretentious, "this is real food" kind of way. The home fries had this gorgeous grilled crisp on top that made it impossible not to eat every single bite! The service was friendly & warm, where everyone seems happy to be there & they treat you like a regular, even if it is your first visit. My favorite part: when our lovely server came over with a to-go coffee container & said that it was part of the coffee service. Hubby was so happy! Uncle Mike's Diner is a solid stop when you want quick, tasty comfort food without pretense. It checks all the diner boxes with hearty plates, warm service & an atmosphere that makes you slow down just a little. NOM NOM NOM #YUM

Me and my fiancé went inside to grab 2 bubble teas the other day. There's enough parking which is great, and I believe they have karaoke in the evenings around 9:30pm ( we haven't tried this yet). The owner is very kind and attention. They've always been kind on the phone and in person as well. They only lose one star because the ambiance was a little off. Customers seemed to stare as if we had twenty heads, but the owner didn't act that way. But that's the reason why it lost one star I felt very uncomfortable and out of place. And as much as I loved it on the inside I doubt I would go inside to eat after that weird feeling.
