Modern sushi with a sophisticated vibe. Innovative preparations of sushi & fusion plates shine at this upscale Japanese hot spot.
We got a reservation to celebrate our anniversary, and our server Virginia made sure it was a memorable experience! The Chef's Tasting is a must for those looking to have an adventure without stressing what to order, and the variability of what was included across presentation, ingredients, abd textures will keep you engaged for the entire meal. We spent around two hours at Uchi between 13 courses (three were desserts) and a bottle of sparkling wine. Plan for about the same amount of time so you can enjoy the experience fully. Thank you again to Virginia and the entire Uchi staff and chefs! Highly recommend.
We got the set menu which came in at $175 per person. Steep price but reasonable considering the culinary journey and quality of ingredients. Definitely comes recommended. Only complaint is that customers are given cheap, single-use Chinese chopsticks. There’s a clear difference between Japanese style and Chinese style chopsticks, and why one kind is used for sashimi and the like. For a high end restaurant that showed so much attention to details in the dishes, I’d expect the same when it came to the table setting.
This restaurant is very pricey but the quality of food really reflects that. They have impeccable dishes with a broad range of flavours - which will make you not want to go to any other Japanese restaurant other than Uchi. Order anything you want on the menu - you can't go wrong! Service is fast and waiters are friendly and attentive. Very busy place so you have to book like a week in advance!
Excellent food. Beautiful restaurant. Lovely atmosphere. Good service. Truly wonderful sushi that is exquisitely prepared, well presented, and very tasty. Be very very careful. If you allow the waiter to provide a “customized” experience for you, be prepared for costs close to $300 per person. Even though this should be made clear in advance, we did have a good experience.
Wow! It was an amazing experience. Now I like to say I love sushi but I had no idea what I was in for. I'm a basic rolls gal and was ready to just enjoy the rolls they had to offer. My server saved the day and said would you like me to pick some items for you. I said yes! We discussed what proteins I did and didn't like and if I had any allergies. Then I gave him all the power for my meal. Best decision ever. It was delicious, everything that was delivered to my table. There was only one item I really didn't like but they asked me about. It was a newer item they were working on. Let me just say, letting someone else just choose your meal for you was so freeing. It was a night I soon won't forget. I honestly can't give you names of the dishes. They told me I ate then then the next one came out and I had forgotten the name already. I know the crudos were delicious. Every single one they brought out. The Matstake Bass was amazing. Perfect last course of the dinner. Try the Jasmine cream for an interesting and surprising dessert and the fried milk to give you that chocolate craving most people love for a ending to a good night. I took terrible photos of some things but do yourself a favor and treat yourself. It's not a cheap night out but it's an experience worth every penny.
My only complaint is that they have ruined my expectation of good sushi and I will not be able to go to another restaurant ever in life. This was the freshest most delicious food I have ever had at a restaurant. Worth every dime! Great vibes and music. Delicious sake. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable! Best dining experience by far. Wonderful experience! Will be back! Bonus: They have vegetarian and vegan options. Pictured below that is not fish that is a tomato ?
Great place and we’ve gone here for years. Great place for any special occasion or even date night. Well worth trying the Omakase Chef Tasting. It will allow you to try things especially when you can’t decide. Brussels sprouts are my favorite, try them to start off.
The food was extraordinarily fantastic but the service was not great at all. We waited for a long time every time we needed our waiter. He was always no where to be found. In fact, we don’t know why he insisted on serving us because the other waiter was serving the surrounding tables whereas he’s always elsewhere. We waited for a long time to get soy sauce. We waited yet another long time to get a spoon in the end we gave up and shared a spoon. We waited for a long time to get the hot tea refilled. We waited for a long time to order extra food. We tried to ask for help from another waiter but he chose to ignore us. We really didn’t expect this kind of service from a place like Uchi.
