   I’ve eaten at Uchi numerous times. Always on point and delicious! My mom has never eaten there and it was my birthday. I have never been out to eat for a birthday and had more than the waiter wish me a happy one. Literally, every server that delivered a new plate of heaven to the table wished me a happy birthday! My daughters and my mother as d myself had an incredible dinner ✨🍣💖 thank you Aziz for looking out for us and Drew for checking all was delicious! Uchi never disappoints and I look forward to my next time in and also trying Uchiko ❤️ Made my night so Very Special ✨ Thank y’all❣️

   We had a great experience and thoroughly enjoyed every dish that we ordered. The service was good and the food runners explanations of the dishes were clear and concise. The only complaint we had was the back waiters/bussers were collecting dishes too early and it would be nice if they at least asked if you were done with a plate that had a bite or 2 left.

   Uchi surpasses the promise of modern fine dining, where every bite is savored as a unique experience and is unlike anything offered anywhere else. The menu items are as inspired as they are delicious and the service is extremely attentive and seamless across team members. Uchi is a must-go for anyone who considers themselves a sushi lover, but it also offers so many more fun tastes and combinations than the excellent nigiri. This is our go-to spot for celebrations of any kind. The fish is as good on a Wednesday as a Saturday too. Can’t say enough good things.

   Never had a bad meal at Uchi! The front desk was so kind to seat us even a few minutes late due to bad traffic. We enjoyed our meal and our friend who never been to Uchi loved it! Staff was exceptional and made great recommendations. Hope to come back again soon!

   We always get omakase, but last night did it at sushi bar. Our best dining experience in our 16 years in Houston. The sushi chef chose perfect fresh options that we never would have known to pick. With ideal sake pairings.

    Fantastic food with exceptional service. Decadent dishes served in a low lite dining area. I personally sat at the sushi counter and was able to enjoy a full view of each dish being made. I visit twice a month! High grade cuts of prime fish and seafood. Soft shell maki, hama chili, and crispy fried brussels are a must.

    the food is very good. we were seated at the counter. the experience at the counter was bad. its like you are sitting there staring a the chefs and they are busy with their work and ignore you. I wonder if it would be different when seated on a regular table. I get it they are not bar tenders to engage you and that's fine. Over all the restaurant ambience is pretty basic.

    Uchi was one of our favourite places for a special occasion. Had not been since covid. We had international guests and thought this a perfect place to bring them after an afternoon in the muesum district. Made booking 3 weeks in advance. Not nearly as I remembered. Not normally something we do - but did say something to front desk about the service - new staff sent to look after us - and the experience stepped up. But - not impressed to start with. Food was near to par. An expensive experience not to be 100% happy.

    Poor service, a bit arrogant sushi chef (we were seating at the counter), did not present the fish of the day, did not provide suggestions, overall attitude was not up to the positioning they want the restaurant to be at. Food was fair but nothing that I would remember compare to peers in NYC, LA or SF. Service was poor. Venue and design was good.

    We ordered the chef's choice 10 course meal. Every course was phenomenal. Wait staff was very professional and everyone was extremely knowledgeable. They were obviously very well trained, which you don't see at many restaurants anymore. Great experience.

    Overall, just not great. First sub par experience I have ever had there. At the end we got our bill and it was outrageous for what we had eaten- I’ve been eating there for 10 years- it’s expensive, but I felt like it was just over the top

    Overrated. I've visited countless fine dining restaurants and tried omakase at major cities across the US and this makes it to my BOTTOM 3. Expected more from this place given the reviews but it is way overpriced for what you get. $150 per person signature omakase was barely worth 1/2 that price given the quality and quantity of food they provided. Service was also very mediocre. Definitely skip this spot and don't waste your money or time

    I have been coming to Uchi since it opened in Houston and it has been my favorite restaurant. Service has gone downhill in the last two years which is disappointing. The servers appear more rushed and when they place each dish on the table - they do not consistently explain the dish or reiterate any allergy information. Our server was also pushy. We didn’t get water on our table for 30+ mins and I also miss the hand towels as well.

    Uchi has the most inventive happy hour in Houston. All of the dishes were fresh, creative, and delicious. Because their fish is so fresh, we got to appreciate the finer nuances of each fish such as the subtle sweetness and ocean-like brine. Uchi is usually not an affordable restaurant but their happy hour democratizes some of the country’s finest modern Japanese cuisine. The vibe was casual but classy. Even before our dinner, the service staff reached out to ensure all details were taken care of, like giving our party extra room to accommodate a baby. Huan was an outstanding server and was so generous to give an extra dessert for Mother’s Day. It was a pleasure having him take care of us.

    We had a great time here! We were running a bit late but they still sat us and held our table for the full two hours which I appreciate so much. Our server, Dusty, was AMAZING and helped a lot with the first-timers at the table. Everything from the Omakase was delicious. We can’t wait to come back!

    Fabulous food!! Fabulous servers!!! One of our diners has celiac, and they were great about making sure things were safe for him to eat, and being clear when something at the table had gluten in it. The food came out a good pace, and our server Huan was amazing. By the end of the meal we wanted him to come to our family reunion :)

    Food and service exceeded expectations. Every dish was excellent. Had chef’s Ten Course tasting menu. Very fairly priced and so we’re the drinks and wine. A little noisy but there is nothing to dampen the sound in the decor. Could still have a comfortable conversation without increasing my volume. We were also in the back and not main dining room. It seemed a little quieter in the back. Overall, experience was excellent and will be coming back soon.
