Uchi Austin Reviews
I have so many things great things to say about Uchi.
We sat at the bar and did a omakase. The chef asked our preferences and tailored our courses to that while still letting us explore new flavors and combinations. The drinks were 10/10! The ambiance was perfect as well it was lively while still feelin
Easily my favorite sushi in Texas.
Uchi does everything fabulous and is a perfect setting for a nice celebration dinner or date night. The servers are also incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Cannot recommend this place enough and can't believe they don't have a Michelin star
What we loved about Uchi? Everything.
But let me start with the real MVP of our afternoon--Stephanie, our server. She knew the menu like the back of her hand and guided us through it with such confidence and care. Every recommendation she made was spot-on. Not once did she steer us wrong

Kubota sake - amazing You can't go wrong asking your waiter or waitress to recommend menu items. We started with sashimi preference, then moved to a yellowtail/brown butter dish that will change your mind on sushi and brown butter being on same

While Uchi is one of the first restaurants brought up when high-end sushi is mentioned, it doesn't quite meet the bar for fine dining. Truthfully, it teeters on the edge between mid-tier sushi and high-tier fine dining. The flavor doesn't q

The service was impeccable! I have worked in several restaurants, and I noticed so many nice touches. Everyone who worked there was constantly attentive (but not annoying). Dirty plates and utensils were immediately removed from tables. Drinks were r

Uchi is overall good, but I do think it is too expensive for what it is. This is totally just my opinion -- it's coming from someone that is very easy to please when it comes to sushi, so $20-30 sushi does the job just as well as $200 sushi does

We've lived in Austin for six years and we have always wanted to go to Uchi. We've been to Uchiko and have loved it, but for our anniversary, we decided to go to the original! Alexis, our server made our experience exceptional. She selected
This place is not worth the price or hype.
I have been here a couple of times now and I don't think the sushi is anything special.
Truly delicious food.
But if you're on a date, maybe this isn't the best place. Even if you have a reservation, you will probably have to wait for your table. The hightop tables are too close together to grant any sort of privacy. We would sit at the bar except
Delicious. Great service
Food is awesome ! Veggie options Joe the waiter is warm, knowledgeable and the best recomendator of great dishes ever. The restaurant is wonderful and the service impecable !
Good to try
We were there during the happy hours, the portion was quite small, taste is good. Service people are nice, itโs a very good place for the Japanese cousins. I would like seaweed wraps instead of the soybean wrap. I travel to Japan often, in Austin t
High end sushi with unique twist
Excellent twist on high end sushi, had thรฉ happy hour tasting menu, It was outstร nding. Service was friendly. Really Nice balance of Flavors texture dishes. Good drinks too.
Fantastic
I don't even know where to start. After reading all the rave reviews, I was hopeful, but this sushi experience truly exceeded my expectations. The fish was incredibly fresh, melting in my mouth with every bite. Honestly, thereโs not much to s
Thanksgiving visit
Another fantastic visit to Uchi in Austin. Food was fantastic, service was excellent and the overall feeling from our evening was one of satisfaction. Choice of food on menu is great, food is impeccably presented and has such great flavors.
I love Uchi- period.
However, we typically always go to the Houston location and we haven't been to this here in a long time. It was still good, but... Houston location is better. We ordered: -kinoko nabe- crispy rice with a bunch of different mushrooms. I've had this n

I've wanted to try Uchi for a long time, but have been deterred because many of my Austinite friends have said it's overrated. Well, they were very wrong and we might not be friends anymore since they robbed me of this amazing dining experience for s

Uchi Austin is a beautiful restaurant with a trendy vibe, perfect for a fancy night out. Everyone raved about it, so I took my family for a special occasion. While the ambiance is undeniably cool, be prepared for a lighter-than-expected meal. Uchi'
This restaurant was highly recommended by my coworker.
She lives out in Houston and she said it originated out in Austin so I made sure that I had to try it. There's lots of amazing food and reservations are hard to come by and it was great to see how busy it was. Luckily we had reservations. We almost
Nation level of fish quality.
Everything was good. Uni and Otoro in particular were great. Highly recommend. Be prepared to pay $150-200 per person. One star removed because everything takes a long time to come out. Even if you sit at the sushi counter, you have to be very very p

Exceptional service, gluten free (Celiac) friendly, amazing dishes. Have never had a bad meal here or at any of the Uchi sister restaurants. Highly recommend their happy hour menu and deals.
Austin institution, that maintains top notch food and service!
Uchi has great creative sushi and top level team service. You have your own waiter, but they all work as a team to clear your plates, etc. and ensure a wonderful experience. As a former waiter it was impressive, and seemed authentic too. Ambiance is

Didn't have reservations but they kindly sat us at the bar where we enjoyed a good bartender with great recommendations that did not disappoint.
Stupid Good!!
Stupid good. I am not a sushi person however I wanted to lean in and try something new. WOW. I was so impressed with the service and the flavors! I tried the pork belly (insert chefโs kiss!) and the wagyu! Would DEFINITELY go back!
Sushi with mayo
Overall, my experience at Uchi restaurant was mixed. The ambiance and service were commendable, with a waiter who tried to accommodate my preferences despite the unavailability of certain items like the Asian plum vine. However, the substitution with

This place is always so fun! I loved the small samples of everything. The nigiri pieces were definitely better than their rolls. My personal favorites of the night were the foie gras, gyutoro and salmon nigiri. The hamachi sashimi dish was a bit too

10/10.
I've been to some of the best spots in Austin, this place tops them all. Location, vibe, food. Must go to spot for dinner. Eberly is also a 2 min walk away to pregame.

Sitting at the bar, it was fun to see the dishes prepared, however, it made for a more busy and hectic eating experience than I see described by other reviewers. We came to celebrate a birthday and they were kind in providing a card and being welcomi
Happy hour everyday 4-6p - yes please.
I am not sure what's not to love about Uchi. Is it super expensive? Yes, it is. Happy hour is sooo worth it. This is a special spot with incredible service, impeccable food and next level ambiance. I once showed up once with two extra people in m

What an excellent restaurant! We were a party of two: I wanted the omakase, and my friend wanted a few specific dishes. Although the omakase is normally for two people, the chef was more than happy two cut the portions in half as much as he was able

Best Sushi experience ever.
Great flavors Great service Great location Great vibe A total win!!!!!!
Terrible Experience
John their manager was absolutely disgusting to me. I was already having a rough day with my grandmother in the hospital and having a disability. He mocked me and treated me super poorly. I will never dine here again, this was one of my favorite rest
Uchi Austin is a culinary masterpiece that beautifully celebrates Japanese cuisine and innovative flavors
Dining at Uchi Austin was a culinary journey into the art of Japanese cuisine and innovative flavors. The restaurantโs modern and inviting ambiance set the stage for an exceptional meal. The menu was a fusion of traditional Japanese dishes with a c
Delicious
Itโs a little on the fancy side and slightly elevated in price, but the value for cost is amazing. Delicious and unique dishes along with a nice ambiance make it superb for both a casual dinner with friends or a meal for a special occasion.
A Fantastic Surprise
Iโve heard great things about this place but I was not so sold initially. I love Japanese cuisine and seeing other Asian ingredients/style and dishes on the menu was a little unsettling. I tend to be a purist, you see but I decided to give it a try
Nice
This place was such an amazing experience - they completely deserve the Michelin star they got. The place has an awesome vibe - no one seems stuck up even though this is a fancy upscale place. The service was great. Our server, Nicholas, was very pro
Really overpriced, not that good
Very very very overpriced for very small portions, and not that good. Very tiny pieces of salmon with a cucumber, not any better than HEB sushi, but triple the price and half the size with real long wait times. The waiter was nice though.
Best sushi ever!
Our visit to Uchi was exceptional. We arrived at 4 when they opened and soon the place was full. Our waitress, Chloe, although 'in training', was very knowledgeable about the menu and encouraged us to try new things to share. We each ordered somethin
glorious sushi
This restaurant is very good, especially with the sushi, which is a delight for the palate and there is nothing the same or similar to this magnificent and glorious flavor.
One of the best and my favorite sushi spot in Austin, Texas.
They offer an elegant, refined sushi experience. They serve an Austin-haute menu with premium ingredients and culinary techniques. I recommend this spot for a chic date night.
By far the best sushi you're going to eat in Austin Texas!!
By far the best sushi you're going to eat in Austin Texas!! They just celebrated their 20-year anniversary and is the real OG of culinary arts!! Always recommended to try to get a reservation!! Highly recommended for an anniversary!
The sushi rolls were good! However the service was not.
To many tables assigned for one person. Seems like a staffing issue.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Uchi Austin at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Uchi Austin page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FulfilledThread16, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* FulfilledThread16 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FulfilledThread16 for any questions Peter may have as FulfilledThread16 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FulfilledThread16 now uses their connections at Uchi Austin to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FulfilledThread16 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FulfilledThread16 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FulfilledThread16's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Uchi Austin!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
