Absolutely delicious food and the service was awesome. Everything we had was so good but favorites were the tsukune (best we've ever had), the special sashimi trio, and the BBQ tsukemen. Look forward to returning!

Everything we ordered was excellent! Few more vegetarian options without fish sauce would make this a killer destination! Our favorites were the steamed rice rolls and the fried rice.. Beignets with Homemade Jam was a super hit!

Another exquisite visit to Uchi. The service was fabulous from the moment we walked in. We let our server Jessica give us some guidance on our menu for the evening, and her recommendations did not disappoint. The sake tom kha was delicious, with a flavor packed tom kha reduction. We also had an ocean trout nigiri on special that was so delicious, we ordered seconds. We’ll be back!
