My friends and I drove up from Laurel, MD to visit the Strawbridge Shrine (review coming soon) outside of New Windsor. We had a whole list of potential lunch spots for when we left there; two in New Windsor and some on the way back to Laurel. We ended up choosing UME because of the bigger variety of food on offer and we were so glad we went!Parking is free, on the street. There are probably times you'd have to park farther but we arrived just as they opened at 11 so it was easy.Décor is fun - like a diner I might have gone to as a child in the 60's. The "public face" who seated us (they actually told me this) is the most welcoming and affable person, who grasped our lady date vibe immediately and was just as fun as the place. I will warn you right off - too many amazing sounding choices on the menu! Also, it pays to ask for more detailed info: I don't like horseradish and it turns out the tiger sauce on the Matty Melt is made with that. Our person (I never caught their name, dangit!) offered to customize by having it made with plain mayo. Sold! So, C ordered the cheesesteak sub, E chose the turkey bacon ranch panini, and I did get the Matty Melt, sans horseradish. We each cut our sammie in half, then a half in half again, then shared all around. For those of you who don't want to math, we each had 1/4 of the other two flavors, plus 1/2 of our own and it was a delightful sampler!All of the ingredients were so fresh and so flavorful. The lettuce on them was not wilted like shredded lettuce can get so easily. Tomato bursting with flavor, crispy bacon, and the steak! wow! We all turned down chips or other starches, but we each got a dill spear which was tasty. Even sharing out the food, it was too much for me for one meal so I have lunch for tomorrow :DPrices are right in line with any other casual dining experience. $14.99 for a really good hoagie or panini is perfect. We treated our friend and split the rest of the bill in half, so it was less than $30 for me. Toss in the cash tip which happily C always does, too, and it was still only $40! I often say this but I'm very serious - if it wasn't so far from home, since I'm not in Laurel but 20 minutes from there - I would make the trek again and again to eat here. And you know what, I might just do it anyway! I have loads of time when g'kids are in school and I could easily drive up just for lunch... Hmmm.

Many know that I have many meal destinations. Places that produce plates test are so mouth wateringly ideal that I'll sometimes travel many miles or hours to them. Uncle Matty's is bc such a place. Don't let the simple, unadorned exterior fool you. The food here is magnificent! Easily the best burgers I've had in the state of Maryland. Although it's not a menu, do yourself a favor and have it topped in their pork BBQ. The beer menu is also diverse and has outstanding quality.The owner should give seminars on the hiring, training, and cultivation of restaurant staff. I can't think of any other place that so consistently provides their level of courteous friendly service. The staff never comes across as disingenuous or forced.Take a trip to Windsor Mill. You'll be glad you did!

My son really enjoyed the large, delicious burger. The chips were good, as well. The ambience is nice and relaxing, too. It's a comfortable local restaurant. The service was good. I think $$ is correct. I thought the pita pizza was a bit expensive for what I got but it tasted good.

Whoa. Came to Uncle Matty's based on some yelp reviews. It's this tiny little hole in the wall place in a small town and I loved everything about it. Caitie was our waitress and she was adorable and full of recommendations. She did a great job! Kudos to her. We started with the boom boom shrimp. A tad spicy and fried as near perfect as possible. Next I got the hot turkey sandwich. The turkey is roasted in house and the gravy is made here too. I added gravy fries for $2.99 and I literally wanted to lick the gravy from the bowl. It is clearly the star of the show and something I would eat everyday for a week and not think anything of it until I peeled myself out of my sweatpants and realized I gained 10lbs! My husband got the cheese steak with the ghost pepper cheese and it too was amazing. Never frozen, super fresh everything. Really nice find in this random local we happened upon. When we are close by, we will return for sure.

I didn't think the food was as great as the reviews personally. Went there on an early Saturday, lunch time with 2 tables besides us. My wife and I ordered two bacon burgers, an order of fries, 2 soft drinks, and a hotdog. 45 minutes for it to come out, and it was mediocre. We came from an hour away because we heard it was the best burger on that side of town, and the reviews spoke highly as well. Oh well. $55 (includes the tip). Won't return

Uncle Matty's Eatery in New Carrollton, Maryland, is a great place to stop for a quick bite whilst traveling on business.Two of us came here today for lunch after a meeting. The coffee is a little anemic for us full lead, regular coffee drinkers who lean French and Italian roast, but the coffee was warm and fresh none the less.I had the bleu cheese chicken panini which was A-OK. My companion had the Simone. Both were pronounced delicious. There was also a pickle. Yay, pickles!One bone to pick: Uncle Matty's was cold! There is no vestibule so the opening and closing of the door made this place freezing. Or maybe I just need thicker socks? Anyway, thank you for the kind hospitality, Uncle Matty's in New Windsor, Maryland. Our server was particularly kind and warm-- I really appreciated her very much.

Best off the beaten path to eat in Carroll County. Don't be fooled by the low key decor, or the single page plastic covered menu. The food, is fantastic. Try the cream of crab soup, which will leave you in ecstacy. Then entrees and sandwiches will please your pallet, and leave you enormously satisfied. And definitely have some room left over for desert, which are most excellent!The wait staff is very friendly and efficient, and you will have an enjoyable experience.

Great diner. Varied menu. Kid friendly. The owner is a super nice guy. We've taken our grandson, who is 15 months old several times. It's always a great experience.

Take-out or eat-in casual? Choose Uncle Matty's! We haven't been at this location in MANY years, but after a name change and menu change, we are impressed with our carry-out order! The food is just plain good, so if you are on the fence for fast food or a step above, either way, choose Uncle Matty's Eatery. The Caprese Panini was spot on with a good tasting tomato this time of year, flanked by quality mozarella and a nice basil pesto. The Italian cold sub was fresh and a step above, and we topped off our order with feta fries, which were tasty. The fresh cut potato chips needed a little toast in a 425 oven for 5 minutes by the time we got home, but they were perfect and so flavorful. We will return! You need to try this place, too!
