  We had the Omikase service here ladt Saturday and it was nothing short of superb. From the attentive and very pleasant valets. The ambiance of the restaurant was just perfect. We were seated quickly a the staff were not only attentive but great. The food was out of this world. The explanation for each meal was fantastic and we had to order seconds. Shoutout to Cat our server, she was very attentive and took care of our group. She was very nice and answered every question we had about the meals and drinks. Uchi is now a staple in our go to restaurants in Austin.

  By far the best dining experience, we’ve had in a very long time. Wild place was packed, the service is still on point and the menu was quite an adventure. Definitely great value for money for what it is the freshest seafood we have had and some great options of seafood street from a famous Japanese food market. If we lived in Austin, this would definitely be a favorite date, night spot, or a place to celebrate with friends.

  We chose the omakase-style tasting menu and a few à la carte, and every single dish was truly delicious—there wasn’t one course we didn’t enjoy. The quality of the food was exceptional and clearly reflects a high level of culinary skill. The only critique I would offer is the pacing of the experience. At times, the courses felt rushed. On a few occasions, additional dishes were plated before we had finished the previous course, or food arrived and sat briefly, affecting the intended temperature. Where we were sitting in the middle of the dining room, the servers would rush by adding to the “rush” feel. I think everyone needs to slow down à but and just enjoy. Given the level of craftsmanship involved, a slower, more intentional pace would allow each dish to be appreciated fully. The servers were attentive and professional, though it was evident they were very busy. Menu descriptions were delivered quite quickly, which added to the overall feeling of being rushed. Slowing down slightly—both in service and explanation—would elevate the experience even further. Overall, the food itself was outstanding, and with a more relaxed, deliberate flow, this restaurant could offer an even more memorable and immersive dining experience.

  Uchi absolutely lives up to its reputation. The food quality and creativity are outstanding — every dish feels thoughtfully crafted with fresh ingredients and bold, well-balanced flavors. The sushi and Japanese-inspired plates are both innovative and beautifully executed. The atmosphere is upscale yet comfortable, and the service complements the experience perfectly. It’s easy to see why Uchi is considered one of Austin’s top restaurants. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates creative, high-quality food.

  It’s hard to believe anyone has negative things to say about this place. From the moment you walk into Uchi, you’re warmly greeted by the hosts and immediately taken in by the beautiful atmosphere. The ambiance is perfect for any occasion, and if you’re looking for phenomenal sushi paired with impeccable service, buckle up. David, our server (an OG with over six years at Uchi), took incredible care of my friend and I. His recommendations and overall demeanor were spot on, he truly made the experience feel special! We were spoiled in the best way. Lots of the staff here are attentive, eclectic and super rad. They always make me feel like a regular (and I’m far from) when I come in. Uchi consistently outdoes itself with the quality of its ingredients too. I mean, come on they’re flying in Tasmanian trout from Australia… and we’re in Texas!? That level of commitment says everything. Some of these dishes brought tears to my eyes. Thank again yall for outdoing it time after time.
