Famous Uncle Al's is my go to spot! I just wanted to recognize their hardwork especially today! With all the cruise ships coming to Norfolk port instead of Baltimore they were amazing with keeping a good pace with service, food came out hot, and they were in good spirits as always i love how inviting the ambiance is! Reasons why they are my number 1 spot

It's a little confusing for a first timer. If you're picking up or ordering to go stay at the front. If you're eating in go to the back and have a seat. You can pick up your cup and self serve a drink before you sit. A waitress will come take your order but she's alone so it was a bit busy at lunch time. Hotdogs were very good. More of a sausage than normal hotdog. Onion rings had great flavor but were not hot. Sriracha mayo was excellent. Prices are good. Would definitely return.Unfortunately I have to edit my review. I cannot say with 100% certainty, but I am 90% sure I got some bad food here. While I enjoyed the meal, about two hours later I was not feeling well with GI issues that lasted about 12 hours. It could be unrelated, but I'll think twice about going back.

We had a good meal at this place on the way out of town from a recent trip to the beach. My kids loved the wings, while the chicken tenders, Italian sausage, and chili dog were less loved by those who tried them. The fries were a little bit on the "burn victims" end of crispy. Prices were fair for the portion sizes and service was fast and friendly. I was hoping for more but Famous Uncle Al's did the job for what we needed at the time--fast, hot food to keep my kids from bubbling over.

Downtown Norfolk. Great place to meet up and have a lunch. Busy during the work week because it seems like the people working in this area come here. Semi-friendly staff. They are busy and move quickly for the lunch rush. Not the cleanest but not super dirty either. I just thought the drink area could have been wiped down . Onto the food. Fries were pretty good. The Club sandwich was great and we got to choose the type of bread. That made it even better. The hot pastrami sandwich is the best. Plenty of meat, thick slices of melty swiss cheese, and the mustard was perfectly spicy. YUMM. The chicken wrap was pretty good too. Make sure to check out the special for the day. That is always a good deal. I did not take a lot of pictures because it was so busy in there and we were in a hurry to get lunch and go. I would definitely try them again because the sandwiches were so good.

The food was SO good. Definitely recommend the wings with the mild sauce. Wish there were more fries on the plate, but otherwise amazing. People were nice too. Good music and TVs in the diner. Again, it was so good and I recommend this place.

I love a local breakfast spot that's affordable and straightforward. This was in walking distance from my hotel and the simple menu was too enticing. I went with then egg+meat+cheese sandwich customizing with a fried egg, bacon on an everything bagel. Look at that beauty!The space is quirky painted a sunny yellow and there's plenty of tables to enjoy your fare at.

I ordered the French toast, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. It was very good.My Aunt ordered bacon, egg and cheese on white toast. She said her food was very good too.Both of our sandwiches were fresh and hot. The inside is a good size with lots of tables. Prices are very reasonable. Staff was welcoming when we entered.

Famous Uncle Al's is one of the only breakfast places that provide an American classic breakfast sandwich for dining in or on the go on Granby Street. Living/working downtown I'm typically in a rush in the mornings. I can always count on Famous Uncle Al's to make a Bacon, Egg, and Cheese on an everything bagel sandwich for me. They have Daily Specials and offer not only breakfast but lunch menu items as well.Uncle Al's offers call ahead if they are not busy or online ordering. The staff is always so friendly and quick with the orders! The restaurant is clean and organized! Parking is street parking but you can find a spot during the early mornings.

I don't even know where to start. However, I go to uncle Al's every single morning to get my breakfast because I work downtown in the city treasurers office. There was an older lady that worked the front with glasses. I don't remember her name. But she was great. I would call every single morning place my order, and by the time I got there, my food was ready. Every single morning like clockwork. All of a sudden someone else starts working the farm and as of today, she told me that she owned the place. With some gentleman name, Ramon. The first two times that I came she got my order wrong and the pricing wrong. The second two times I came she kept me on hold from Rosemont exit in Virginia Beach all the way until I had to walk in the building and show them that I'm still on hold. She got an attitude with me because I didn't like the fact that she kept getting my order wrong and keeping me on hold without coming back to the phone. This morning I walked in and said hey how come you didn't come back to the phone again this is the second time. And she immediately made me leave. Every single time she's at the front. She gets something wrong and then gives me her ass to kiss. There's zero accountability. Whoever this particular person is that feels like she can deal with me any type of way because she has ties to the owner is ridiculous. This establishment definitely lost a customer and I will definitely make it a part of my agenda to make sure that my friends and family and the people that I know and have some type of contact with will never eat at this particular place again.
