    Hama Chili
    Jessyca M.

    The ambience was absolutely beautiful, and even with a reservation there were plenty of tables available, which made the experience feel relaxed and comfortable. The food was excellent, you could really taste the freshness in every bite. We tried the hama chili, sake toro crudo, madai crudo, hot rock, pork belly, nigiri (sake, sake toro, and akami), and the zero sen. Everything was flavorful and well executed. Our server also surprised us with the ham and eggs, and honestly, it was SO good. The reason it's not a full 5 stars is mostly the pacing of the service. It started off great, with dishes coming out at a really nice pace, but then it suddenly slowed down quite a bit. Service overall was good, but compared to the Dallas location, it didn't feel quite as polished. Still, definitely worth visiting for the quality of the food and the overall experience.

    Highly recommend Uchi for non-traditional Japanese cuisine! The freshness and creativity of the dish combinations is what stands out the most to me. It may not have the best ambiance or the nicest restaurant decor, but the menu does not disappoint. I particularly like eel, so I recommend the unagi. I also loved the hama chili, which is one of their signature dishes, the wagyu dingo, the shime saba (mackerel), the kimono even though it's a very small bite, and the kinoko nabe, which is not pictured but is truly a must. I'm not sure what they add to it, but it is delicious. If you have room for dessert, the fried milk is interesting because it has several different flavors and textures you can combine. The one dish I would not necessarily recommend is the madai crudo, which needed a little more flavor in my opinion. Service is good both at the tables and in the bar area.

    Went here for our anniversary and had a great time! We arrived about 15 minutes before the end of happy hour but the staff were very welcoming and had no issue with us ordering straight from the happy hour menu. We shared their happy hour omakase for two, and I added a crispy rice with gyutoro (wagyu short rib bites) which was highly recommended. The omakase started with a little raspberry pineapple palate cleanser "shot" before a rapid flurry of dishes. Their signature hama chili yellowtail dish was fresh and savory. The crab cake curry as surprisingly tasty, with the savory salty crab balanced by the creamy slightly spicy curry sauce. The chicken skewers had a nice flavor although could have been a little juicier. All of the nigiris were fresh and flavorful, and they even accidentally brought us another table's order of salmon nigiri which they realized and said it was on the house as an anniversary gift! My favorite dish of the night was the crispy rice with gyutoro - the lightly sesame seasoned rice sesame paired perfectly with the super tender beef and savory slightly nutty salsa macha. It's a shame they only have it on the happy hour menu! To finish the omakase, they brought us a slice of one of their new desserts, a matcha cake which was a little strong on the tart components but had a satisfying strong matcha flavor.

    Was visiting Miami for the day and exploring Wynwood when I decided to stop in here for happy hour. It was exactly what I needed! Cool swanky vibe inside, pretty spacious with an outdoor patio but I sat at the bar since it was just me. The bartender was super helpful with recommendations and very nice. I started with the kinoko usuzukuri, an appetizer dish of thinly sliced king trumpet mushrooms with a refreshing drizzle of yuzu dressing and some other flavorful toppings. Had no idea what to expect but it was soooo delicious. Also got striped jack and bluefin tuna nigiri and now I'm kinda obsessed with nigiri lol. Usually don't choose that at sushi restaurants but this really made me appreciate the simplicity of a quality piece of fish with light complementing flavors. The happy hour prices were pretty decent too. All around perfect experience!

    I've had some great experiences at Uchi. Located in wynnwood, this Japanese restaurant is located in a very walkable neighborhood known for street art. Parking can be a pain, so I'd recommend a ride share if possible. Inside has an elevated, intimate design. Out server was exceptionally friendly and professional. Explained the menu well and worked with us on allergies. The food quality is outstanding. They always have a rotating menu of seasonal fish and if you can make their happy hour, it's a can't miss. Personally I find the HH omakase for two a great deal, with the amount and quality of food you receive. I personally loved the hand roll and sushi the most. The oysters were also flavored extremely well. I wasn't such a fan of the cooked fish that was kind of bony when it came out. Otherwise I enjoyed everything else. I'd happily return again. Prices can add up fast, but if you can make happy hour, I think it's a great deal.

    Lunch, Happy hour, dinner they have it all. I love to seat at the sushi bar, you get your own personal sushi chef, there to answer any questions you may have. They give the best recommendations for your likes. The bathrooms are always clean and the music is always good. This is definitely one of my go to spots.

    One of the best dining experiences I've had. My boyfriend and I went for our anniversary and from start to finish the experience couldn't have been better. Our server Diego was so knowledgeable about the entire menu and helped guide us and answer any questions we had. I was a little lost looking at the menu and every single thing he recommended was delicious and exactly what we liked. They also put a "happy anniversary" note on the table which was a nice touch. Our wine was great and Diego threw in a couple of sashimis, which he said that particular fish was a celebratory fish so it fit the occasion. The ambience was great and I'm already itching to go back. 10/10.

    Sake Toro Crudo

    Their lunch special is no joke. $25 for an app, main, and dessert of this caliber is such an amazing value!! My lunch buddy and I each ordered the prix fixe which we both split, and all the bites were incredible. They had really great drink prices too, with $5 glasses of sake. The apps we got were the hama chili and sake toro crudo. Both delicious with quality fish, but we both agreed the hama chili was the winner! Mains, we chose the walu walu and the burger. Two very different dishes making it hard to compare, but both excellent. Burger meat was cooked perfectly and paired well with the accompaniments on it. Fries delightfully crispy! The coconut Sorbet we ended with was refreshing yet not too coconutty. Service was friendly and efficient and the space was very sleek and quite busy for a weekday.

    Came to try the Happy Hour Omakase - the nine-course tasting for two. Here's what we got: *Mango blueberry juice - palette opener *Tomato sunomono heirloom tomatoes, cucumber, tofu puree *Banh mi hand roll - atlantic salmon, nuoc mam, vietnamese herbs *Crab cake curry - fermented coconut crab curry, blue lump crab cake, green cabbage *Kanpachi nigiri- amberjack *Hiramasa nigiri - greater amberjack *Hamachi - yellowtail with orange slices in a delicious sauce (maybe ponzu) * Pork belly with japanese pumpkin, shallots, sweet pepper gastrique *Sorbet sundae - paprika charred pineapple, pineapple sorbet, coconut cream, passion fruit caramel We added a Wagyu ringo (Australian coulotte with smoked apple), which was so tough that it was difficult to tear with my teeth. It definitely wasn't tender. Our server, Melissa, surprised us by removing it from our bill. Don't get it. It looks good but it's tough. My husband had a "Raba" to drink, which he loved! It's non-alcoholic and had passion fruit, ginger and soda. He said it was delicious! Overall, I was glad that I got to try the omakase but I was glad that we didn't pay full price.

    Gorgeous inside, happy hour from 5-6:30. Great service, yummy food, but small portions and pretty pricey. Came here for HH and it was close to $100 per person with two drinks, some bites, and tip. That said, the inside beautiful, it's a good spot to catch up, and the quality of fish was there. It does fill up (even at the bar), so definitely have a reservation. Drinks were stellar! Didn't take pictures of our entire meal, but we got around 6 different food options cold and hot, and were a comfortable full when we left.

    Stopped into Uchi for dinner because a friend recommended and I loved the interior. Here's a bit more about my experience. P.S, my rating would be 3.5 stars if Yelp offered half points. Reservations-- it's a pretty small restaurant so if you're going with a large group be sure to book a spot online as soon as you can. We booked at 1 pm for a 8 pm reservation for 3 with ease. Service- our table was available as soon as we arrived. Our server was knowledgeable and took us through the menu. The only thing that I wish they did was either mention what kind of sauce came with the sushi on the menu or at least when they bring you the dish. I was so curious every time I got a roll and it was a mystery. Al's side note, they only do soy sauce by request. Aesthetics-- they definitely have it going on when it comes to the design inside of Uchi. The decor was beautiful and very moody --perfect for a date. The menus were beautiful and appear to change periodically because it had a date on it. They played some of my favorite songs at the end of the night including Odeal and Doechii Food--- overall I would give the food a 3/5. I'm not a sushi snob but I've definitely had rolls that have blown me away. Uchi was not that for me unfortunately. My favorite dish was the yellowtail roll and their medium fatty bluefin tuna. After that I would say the spicy tuna roll, Hama chili and then their salmon nigiri. All pretty standard but plated really nicely. I was not a fan of the edamame. They char it and add lemon to it that in my opinion over powers the flavor. I would recommend going if it's date night but I'm sure there's better sushi spots in Miami

    I've been here multiple times and it never misses. The space is modern, calm, and dimly lit, perfect for date night, but also an excellent option for business dinners or bringing clients, especially since they offer private dining. There's plenty of seating, though I recommend you make a reservation due to how popular it is. Everything I've tried has been incredible, but my absolute favorite is the kinoko: melt-in-your-mouth, rich, and buttery king trumpet mushroom in the best way. Other standouts include the hot rock wagyu beef, Hama chili, sake toro crudo, madai crudo, Walu Walu, and honestly all of the rolls. It's one of those menus where ordering broadly is rewarded, there isn't a weak dish. Consistently excellent food and a spot I'll keep coming back to.

    Grace S.

    A little bit of Japan in Miami... Parking: it is in the heart of wynwood so parking is challenging. They have great valet parking for a good price Drinks: pretty good selection Food: food was an 8 out of 10. We did the omakase experience for $200. It was good. Service: our waitress sucked. She took forever to tend to any needs we had Atmosphere/vibe: it was ok. We were expecting something a little fancier. It is a fairly casual place so don't get too dressed up! Age group: 30s and 40s Bathroom: nothing special Return:mane

    i wouldn't consider it "affordable" I think the value and quality match the price they do have a…

We made a reservation and called ahead specifically for omakase. We arrived at 7 pm on a Saturday night, and were told there was no omakase because they did not have enough fish. For a restaurant known for omakase and designed around bar seating for that experience, that is unacceptable. It only got worse. I ordered a beer. It never arrived, and after waiting I was told they were out. I ordered edamame. They were out of that too. Thats 7pm!!!! Thats just the beginning of dinner service on a Saturday!!!!! And the restaurant had maybe 8 people total inside. The server, a girl with long dyed red hair, started off polite but quickly became dismissive. I clearly explained that I am allergic to spicy food and asked for anything spicy on the side. Dishes kept arriving spicy anyway. Because of this, I could barely eat. My nose became completely blocked and I even started speaking differently from the reaction. Food also kept coming out wrong and very slowly. Eventually we left hungry and went next door to eat because it was impossible to get consistent service or correct dishes. At the end, instead of apologizing, the server commented that we seemed to be having fun and were even talking funny. It felt mocking, disrespectful, and unprofessional, especially considering I was reacting to the spicy food I had specifically asked to avoid. Between the lack of basic inventory at the start of the night, the repeated incorrect orders, and the dismissive attitude, this was one of the worst dining experiences I have had. This location does not reflect the standard of the South Beach restaurant. Zero stars if that were an option.

Then they pour the bottle touching the rim of your glass spreading contaminated germs from the other patron's glass! GROSS!

The hovering over people in this tiny, little whole in the wall restaurant felt overwhelming. I started to lose my patience being that there is so much staff standing around and found myself several times having to pour my own wine bottle. 2nd, I told them it was my son's birthday and nobody went out of their way to make his birthday special!

We got there a bit before our reservation time, and they let us sit in the smaller dining area as we waited for our spots to open up. We all did the $200 tasting and we were all pleasantly surprised by the quality and variety of the bites. It's 8 courses that range from a nigiri sampler, small bites, and dessert. Most memorable were the clam broth, beef loin and carrots, and the fatty tuna nigiri with caviar on top. The fatty tuna nigiri with caviar was the main reason I wanted the tasting! There is an à la carte menu too, but it was a lot easier just letting the chefs portion out our meal. Would definitely check them out and enjoy a superb evening out!
