About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for happy hour
  • Hot spot
:: ADDITIONAL RESERVATIONS AVAILABLE ON RESTAURANT WEBSITE ::

Translated from the Japanese word “home,” the original Uchi is located in a refurbished South Austin bungalow. Award-winning Chef Tyson Cole’s signature non-traditional take on Japanese food has delighted Austin’s diverse dining crowd as well as visitors from across the country and around the world since 2003. Reservations are encouraged and can be made up to 1 month in advance. Walk-in seating is limited to the Sushi Bar and is subject to wait times. Patio seating is weather permitting and may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather. We look forward to serving you, Kanpai!

    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.

    This was my second time at uchi and I can honestly say it gets better the more you go. It was a marvelous experience the first time, but the second time was much better since I was more confident with ordering outside the 9 course tasting menu. They have so many delectable dishes it’s insane that one restaurant can produce so many of my favorite things. 15/10 would recommend!!
