    The Sakura vibes were cool and the seating was interesting and fun. Services was great and the food was very good. The sushi was good but the best parts were the wagyu fried rice, bao buns and dumplings. Drink menu was a good mix of Texas meets Japan. Value was spot on.

    We savored Happy Hour as well as a few favorites from the standard menu, such as the Uchi Salad, a hand-held lettuce wrap with layers of flavor and texture. There’s just nothing like it anywhere. We appreciated the zero proof drink offerings —complex and sophisticated—and would love to see even more options in this category.. Our server Meghan guided us expertly. It was a perfect dining adventure. As Austin’s food scene has exploded, Uchi continues to lead and innovate, reliable and surprising.
