Best experience in Austin. We sat at the sushi counter and had the pleasure of having Mitchell prepare our sushi and give us the best suggestions. He honestly made the experience even better. And the food wow out of this world. Vibe was on point. It’s my favorite restaurant in Austin.
The food and service are impeccable - one of our favorite restaurants we've dined at. The food and flavors are incredibly unique. An entire menu for vegetarians - a dream! The dim lighting and layout of the restaurant make it feel cozy even though it's quite big. Complimentary valet. If you're vegetarian, try the avocado nigiri. We loved sitting in Ivy's section!
Came here for our anniversary and it did NOT disappoint!! Would definitely recommend any and all of the items on the menu, especially the desserts. A must try for any sushi lovers who love a dash of creativity in the utilization of ingredients.
Uchiko is a non traditional Japanese style restaurant. Every concept I’ve tasted is ingeniously flavorful. The atmosphere is amazing, low light with a spark of life. No wonder their award winning establishment is always recognized. I would recommend planning way ahead as their reservations for dinner are a little difficult to come by on short notice. They offer valet, although if you’re lucky you may catch a parking space near by.
My partner and I came last night (Tuesday evening) for the $120 happy hour Signature Tastings menu for two. Every single thing we had was incredible and was eye-opening to what fresh fish, quality ingredients, and culinary artistry really can be. We were quietly celebrating a birthday, and the staff were fully aware and even served an extra surprise sushi course with fish traditionally used for celebrations in Japan. It was arguably the best course we had. We (particularly myself) were left laughing in disbelief and joy multiple times of how delicious the food was and the level of hospitality. Our sushi chef was Chef Ji. Sincerest apologies if the spelling is not correct. He was fantastic, so thoughtful, and incredible to watch as he prepared so many amazing pieces in front of us. Our drinks server was Tammy, and she was so knowledgeable, sweet, and attentive. The service and hospitality is so outstanding and beautiful to behold. Really makes you fall in love with the restaurant. This is the closest thing I’ve ever had to a fine dining experience…and now I get it. I wish I could dine here every night. This has really changed food for me. Somebody get this place a ⭐️
