There is no where in St Clair shores area to find a deli. Thank goodness was for Uncle Harry's! It is the real deal. Kim was our server and she was over the top great! They have Dr Browns soft drinks and all the flavors! The matzoball soup is amazing def 9 out of 10. The sandwiches are top notch. The meat is super fresh and the rye bread is fresh and perfect. And you can get them to grill whatever you order right in front of you. To top it all of the atmosphere is an experience. Like walking into a NY deli in the 70s. I highly recommend to anyone in the area. And worth the trip if you are not from the area. read more

We picked up carryout from Uncle Harry's Deli tonight and left feeling pretty underwhelmed, especially for the price. The inside has an old-school diner vibe, which could be charming, but the overall experience didn't quite match. Staff interaction was neutral--not unfriendly, but not particularly welcoming either. My husband ordered the Lynne sandwich and I had the Adele, along with a bowl of matzo ball soup. The soup was definitely the highlight--flavorful and comforting--but at nearly $9 for a bowl, it felt overpriced for what you get. Unfortunately, the sandwiches didn't live up to expectations. The meat was piled in the center of the bread, leaving the ends with little to nothing in each bite, which made them feel poorly constructed and just overall mediocre. We were also surprised by the number of upcharges--extra for toasting the bread, extra for grilling, and even a 3% fee for using a credit card. It all adds up quickly. For two sandwiches and a shared soup, our total came to just over $40, which felt steep given the quality. It's disappointing because we wanted to like this place, but the high prices just didn't align with the food or experience. Unfortunately, we'll likely be crossing Uncle Harry's off our list. read more

Five stars for the most tender dream come true today trying Uncle Harry's corned beef sandwiches for the first time. Heaven came on two fresh slices of soft rye, with a side of crisp tender onion rings. The cherry on top was a diet Dr. Brown's cherry soda. Welcoming service in a small neat diner that looks like 1977, when it first opened. Open weekdays. read more

Delicious! No gluten free bread sadly but you can get meat on a salad. Would definitely go back especially if you do eat gluten

Corned beef on rye with swiss and hot mustard. De-lic-ious!!! Love this place!

I've been coming here for 34 years, and consistent is an understatement when you're talking about uncle Harry's. This place is iconic and it looks like the next generation is helping out now. So happy to see this and I know my family will continue to support them into the next generations as well. I was home alone as my family was away, and nothing sounded better than Uncle Harry's cabbage soup, & the Neil sandwich. read more

Great food!! Always! Wait staff is friendly. Wait time is short. An old time deli with the walls covered in family photos.

Uncle Harry's is a St Clair Shores icon. We have been coming here for years, both dining in and ordering out. One of the best corned beef sandwiches on the Eastside, probably the county and state as well! Rick is always there with a smile and a handshake! He takes the time to get to know his customers and will always genuinely ask how your family is doing. A small town feel with an old time ambience, the inside is the nostalgic deli vibe that makes the establishment a classic. Aside from the soup and sandwiches, their potato pancakes are phenomenal and they have one of the best Coconut Cream Pies I've ever tasted. Uncle Harry's, a true legend! read more

Had the #7 Neil pastrami, slaw, Russian dressing grilled and matzo ball soup. Very good! Service was excellent the people who work their seem like family. Plus they even recognized me by name from an fb post. Two read more

Oh Uncle Harry's Deli .... Where have you been my entire life?? My boyfriend and I stopped in to Uncle Harry's on St. Patty's Day. I wanted a reuben and I also wanted to try somewhere local in the Shores. I've driven by Uncle Harry's a bunch and have even had it bookmarked for what feels like years. The long wait (both due to the holiday and the fact that I haven't been there before) was worth it! Despite choosing the busiest holiday to grab a reuben, everyone at Uncle Harry's Deli truly treated us like family the moment we walked in! They stayed open later just to finish all the orders, which gets major kudos from me. We were also super impressed because when we came back to pick up our to go order, the kind waitress who took our order said "Hey! Welcome back! Your order is ready to pick up. Thank you for your patience earlier. Have a safe St Patrick's Day!" I wish I knew her name because she was a ray of sunshine! The food .... 10/10 would eat this reuben everyday for the rest of my life. I got the #3. The turkey was so perfectly thinly sliced. The marble bread was toasted to perfection, never burnt. The thousand island was rich in flavor and the onion rings? AMAZING We would definitely stop in more often if their hours were different (closed on weekends, which is great since I am all about family time but sad for me because I hardly get off work before they close the rest of the week.) Stop into this absolute GEM in St. Clair Shores -- you won't regret it! read more

Decided to try here after reading the reviews. I called in my order ahead of time. When I got there, it was ready. Walking in, the place reminded me of an old school deli. I was greeted right away. All the staff were properly masked and there's a big bottle of hand sanitizer by the register. I ordered the Adele- corned beef, Swiss cheese, coleslaw, Russian dressing- on an onion roll and fries. The sandwich was very good and everything super fresh tasting. The corned beef was lean (I don't like when it's mostly fat). And the coleslaw wasn't overly creamy. Next time I'll get it grilled because it wasn't hot like I was expecting. Fries were average deli fries- frozen and fried. Prices are reasonable. Will definitely be back for a sandwich again. read more

Food is great. They're never open. Even when the sign outside the door states the hours. FRI at 2,:45, they were closed. I went on a wednesday at 4. Closed. Tied a month ago on a Thursday. Closes. I don't think they're open anymore read more

Pricey as most deli's are - but delicious. I tried it in the last month and had not one complaint. All of the ingredients were especially fresh. It also stored well and I had half the following day. I ordered the #4 Adele Corned beef, swiss, cole slaw, and Russian dressing. read more

This is a long time family favorite! We love Uncle Harry's! My wife is from Detroit, but has lived in Texas for much of her life, but we travel to Detroit often. Uncle Harry's is a MUST stop for us and nothing could be better! If we lived there, we would most likely be there at least once a week. It's just too good to do without! read more

I love uncle Harry's. I had the gut buster and a salad. The sandwiches are always outstanding. What blew me away was the freshness of everything. Especially the salad. It may seem like a small thing but everything was supper fresh. read more

The food is amazing. My parents loved this place and so do I! I recommend this place for anyone looking for good food near here. The cabbage soup is my favorite and I love the Adele sandwich- best corned beef around! read more

Everything was great except when we got the receipt. We were not informed that there would be a surcharge for using a credit card. Had we been told this, we would have paid cash! I find places that do that are despicable and will not return! read more

Please clean your men's bathroom, it is disgusting! Rick, please show a little class!

Seen [Best Sandwiches in Town] in the local news paper and I always like to try the best options so why not shoot on over and see what was the buzz.. Upon entering Environment: 1950 classic Local Detroit Baseball theme. Fixtures, photos and memorabilia even the bathroom has the same old vibes Democratic: Middle or Older Class with that single stand out 20 something couple. Quiet spoken environment, the loudest thing there was the ice machine. Choices: Vast Sandwich optionswith Speciality is the classic Ruben, Party Trays and Soup! Service: The long hair lady is very Short, basic, [what you need], [what would you like] and not any [would there be anything else's] added or cared for. Food: well prepared. The cost:serving size ratio is not really of value. $7.50-9.50 for a sandwich and a single slice pickle. The waffle fries is about 6oz serving, you get a bit more food at a coney for the price. Advertisement in the local paper said 40+ years and the best sandwiches in town. I believe Wally's frozen custard has better, more substantial sandwiches that are considerably better in quality and price. Overall: The lady serving with Harry is very short. Seemed kind of rude and maybe we looked out of palace and she didn't want us there (this is how it felt) Harry was very quiet. I feel they could have been more forward about being the best, ask what people thought when they take a bite and insuring the experience and quality are met with the standards it's trying to uphold. The vibe and atmosphere is great for the place, I just wish the people running the place brought the strong, well kept values with the service. The mediocre service, the slightly high pricing for the amount of food, as the quality is on point, made this overall review a 3 star. Hope this helps as it was a quite awkward experience considering the expectations listed were so high. Went in to get soup they didn't have, changed it up to a whole meal, wanted to get more but like I said felt rushed and not really given any direction other then the feeling of wasting the severs time. I may or may not try again. read more

If you're looking for genuine deli, this is your place. No other on eastside. Try the Adele or the mark. Those are my favorites!

The BEST cabbage soup on the east side. Turkey Rubin sandwich good, also. Server was very attentive though the small restaurant was full of lunch time diners. read more

The food here is great. I got the #6 combo and would definitely recommend it. I love the patio on the side, which allowed me to sit and enjoy lunch with my dog on a lovely spring day. The woman working there even brought a little pup treat which was super nice. This was my first visit and I will definitely be back. read more

Best Deli on the east side. Top level matzo ball soup. I would also recommend the Estelle. The staff is also very nice.

Co-worker's and I went in to get carryout there.. Very small place.. I suggest you order in advance. Not much room to wait around.. we ended up blocking the doorway where people are trying to get in to eat in the place because there wasn't really a designated area to wait. We all thought our choices were delicious.. We'll be back for sure.. Betty's Twin Special with swiss cheese - I added mustard to it and it was excellent. For the indecisive person - half is corned beef, the other half is pastrami. comes with a side of cole slaw or potato salad.. I chose potato salad and it was delicious. (about $9) Here are the comments from my co-workers. Loved the lox and cream cheese bagel.. Was looking for a place that had these.. A little expensive but was excellent. (Price was around $7) New York style cheesecake with strawberries was amazing. (about $3 for a slice) Cabbage soup was very good. (about $2.50 for a cup) Matzo ball soup was very tasty. (about $2.50 for a cup) read more

Delightful owner. Well priced. Great food. Reuben was delish!! Would highly recommend.

Great old school deli. If you aren't looking for a corn beef or pastrami sandwich, go to subway.

Awesome deli, old school awesome deli, they know what they are doing deli. They also offer a lean version of their roast beef sandwich which we thought was well worth the money. We'll be back again!' read more

Ordered a reuben and french fries. Mediocre at best. Typical clump of meat in the middle of the bread so when it's cut it looks stacked. Meat was overcooked and dry although I did pay the extra money for the extra lean meat. Sauerkraut was oddly sweet, dressing was scarce and bread was just ok. It's a small place with about 7 tables and the inside is filled with tons of family memorabilia and international food products to purchase. Service was good, but it will be my one and only time visiting this small sandwich shop. $21.00 for a sandwich and fries that wasn't great and also charged 3% for using a card instead of cash. read more

Great little place. Really good corned beef & pastrami sandwiches. Lots of Jewish deli foods to pick from.

Very friendly staff. Well lit lighting along with outdoors seating. Although I received the wrong order the corn beef and pastrami sandwich was excellent. read more

Great deli in heart of St Clair Shores. Had the "Adele" - corn beef, Swiss cheese, coleslaw and Russian dressing. What a great sandwich. Corn beef was so lean had no fat was delish. My only gripe is the pickle which was too salty. If your not meat person they have a great veggie Reuben which is very good as well. Bread for both sandwiches was very fresh making the sandwiches that much better. For dessert always ask what homemade pies they have that day. read more

Kinda got an attitude from the man behind the counter my first time there. Guess he doesn't like new customers.

I think every thing that can be said about Harry's has been said. My diet is limited to poultry and seafood hence I can't speak to the awesomeness of most of their sandwiches. As for the turkey sandwich I had on an onion roll it was most generous. More meat than I can eat. My lone turkey sandwich was good for two lunches so I guess it was worth $8. It was an old school deli sandwich. The place itself is stuck in time and rad. We were there during the lunch rush and everyone knew each other. Harry's is a friendly place. Great lunch spot! read more
