Uchiba offers a fantastic lunch deal that lets you choose your own appetizer and main course for a great price. I always go for the hama chili--it's fresh, flavorful, and consistently hits the spot. The lunch special is a great way to enjoy Uchiba without committing to a longer or more expensive dinner. Lunch aside, Uchiba is also an excellent choice for a date night or special occasion. I came here with my then-fiancé to celebrate our engagement, and the staff went out of their way to make the evening feel extra special. Their thoughtful service made an already memorable occasion even more meaningful. Overall, Uchiba combines great food, a fun atmosphere, and genuinely attentive hospitality. Whether you're stopping by for the lunch deal or celebrating an important milestone over dinner, it's a spot I'd happily recommend and return to. read more

My friend loves Uchiba and brought me to the original years and years ago when I visited her. I see they've now expanded to three locations so she booked this one for us to have dinner while in town a few weeks ago. It was about 110 degrees during the day and probably still 97 when we sat out on the patio at 7pm. Our server was kind but our meal was exceptionally slow. We sat for two hours and it was minimum 20-30 minutes between every small single serving of sashimi. They did eventually tell us there was something going on and the sushi kitchen was backed up, obviously. We ordered the fried milk for dessert and asked if it was going to take 20 minutes bc if so, I wanted to leave. It was probably out in less than 10 and it was stellar. As always - sushi and sashimi was delicious, fresh, and they had options that you can't easily find elsewhere. I like this location right in downtown and we walked around for a bit afterwards. read more

Exploring a new city as we get settled in. This was our place of choice for a quick goodbye lunch for my mom who was visiting from out of town. We chose it for the location as it was near work. For a Friday lunch, it was a very popular place of choice from business lunches to casual brunch dates. We chose both the ramens, one of the daily special crudo, salmon sashimi. It was not bad. Dessert is dine-in only. Parking is difficult, but paid garage is available across the street, or if you don't mind a brisk walk, library is a good place to park your car and walk to restaurant. Service was fine. read more

Absolutely unbelievable experience! I went here with my wife and friends. We tried multiple plates and shared them family style. We tried the Karaage, Yuca Chips, Hiramasa, Uchiba Salad, Spicy Tuna, Tiger Cry Bao and Hama Chili. Everything was absolutely delicious. The service was phenomenal. The place had great atmosphere. The prices were more than reasonable. We ordered some items from the Austin Restaurants weeks menu, but even items outside of this menu were fairly priced. I would absolutely return here again. read more

On my recent trip to Austin my friend was appalled I had never been to Uchi. So when we saw this spot was walking distance from the coffee shop we had worked at that morning, she "twisted my arm" to go. Wow. What a vibe. It was a dreary Friday afternoon but you could not tll that from the folks sitting at the bar enjoying their lives in Uchiko. From the moment we sat at the bar, our bartender was so friendly and welcoming. He gave us a copy of the lunch menu and then I realized why this spot was the spot to have a long Friday lunch. There are awesome lunch specials and a lunchtime happy hour. There is nothing quite like being on vacation, ordering amazing sushi, and pairing it with a delicious wine that costs $5 with one of your girlfriends - like truly, that is the good life. Our bartender hooked us up with a surprise order of 4 different nigiri - all were awesome. He even sent us a savory mushroom skewer and a complimentary dessert. We had originally wanted their Kinoko nigiri but it's only on the dinner menu which is why he sent us something similar from the lunch menu. I got to try the white wine on the lunch menu as well as the lychee martini (just $7). Since it was raining, we got "stuck" in Uchiko for quite the long lunch, but it was absolutely fabulous. The food quality is incredible. I will dream about the Hamachi Chili forever and must get myself to the Miami location ASAP! read more

Amazing food, great interior and good service! I walked in on a Thursday for lunch and was able to grab a table at the bar. The uchiba salad was fantastic. I loved the shaved cheese, so fluffy with the greens and the crunch from the hazelnut bits. The nasu katsu bao was delicious and gone in a second. Great soft bun with yummy filling. The origiri was yummy too. Very different from what I'm used to with origiri but in a fun and delectable way. Loved the crunchy fried outside and the texture of the rice inside. I would love to try more of the menu in the future! read more

Uchiba happy hour is the way to go! We just ordered a bunch of stuff to split and it was great. My favorites were the edamame dumplings, salmon nigiri, and pork bao. Also the restaurant is so gorgeous like the vibes are 10/10 and the servers were all kind and attentive! I gotta be honest for the price/hype I was expecting everything to be incredible and I'd say everything was good but only a few dishes absolutely wow'd me. It's definitely worth a try if, like me, you haven't been to any of the uchi's. Kinda intrigued to try the other 2 restaurants to see how they compare... read more

Having dined at several other Uchi locations, I was super excited to try Uchiba and it did not disappoint ! The operation runs flawlessly just like any other Uchi restaurant. The servers are attentive, personable, and kind. The food is world-class deliciousness ! They had several of my favorite Uchi dishes and the menu was similar. The ambiance is pleasant without being too formal. The bar was lively and the restaurant overall was booked up. Reservations needed. Dined here twice during our Austin visit, it was THAT good !! read more

We got a last minute reservation at Uchiba for 9:30pm, they let us come in early at 9 and gave us nice booth seating. The drinks and food are amazing as always - I highly recommend the vice for a sweeter vibe! We also got espresso martinis which were phenomenal. As for the food, the sashimi was fresh and delicious. the a5 with caviar was a well worth splurge. I also loved the scallops for the appetizer! We were still a bit hungry after so we had to get the karaage. It wasn't anything special, the other food items we got were definitely worth it though! The fried milk dessert is always a must! read more

Really good sushi and service a few blocks from my daughter's place in downtown Austin. I was solo for the night and walked in and there was a place at the (sushi) bar. I had some nice plates starting with a bluefin akami crude, some hamachi, some makeral sashimi and some anchovy , yes, anchovy - see pictures - sushi below. All wonderful. I guess the surprise was service. Normally at the bar, you order, it comes, and that's about it. Here, for each plate, the sushi chef took the time to hand it to me, then give a minute or two explanation of what it was, the spices etc. drinks great. Good cocktails and a nice Chablis that fit the sushi. Ambience at the bar, fine. The main restaurant was pretty packed and i don't think that on a Friday night i would have gotten. Table on walk in. Cost, expensive. I think my bill, for a few plates and a couple glasses of wine and an upfront cocktail was like $200. Not somethign for every night, but worth the quality. read more

What an experience. Again, led by my coworker and her advice on restaurants all week, she suggested we go to Uchiba for sushi. After all of the BBQ we had, I wanted to try out other types of food Austin had to offer. However, this wasn't your ordinary sushi restaurant and turned out to be one of my favorite spots in Austin. Upon arriving, we were greeted by the hostess who told us it would be about a 10 min wait and this was during off hours on a weekday I believe. So I can only imagine that this place gets packed pretty fast during peak hours. The place was like something out of a magazine, and we opted to sit at the bar to avoid longer wait times. Once seated, we were greeted by the bar waiter and I honestly didn't know what to order so I let him decide my order for me. His exact words were, "we'll go with something cold and then something hot and I promise I won't break your pockets" and that's all I needed to hear. This wasn't your typical sushi restaurant so you couldn't order custom rolls. They only offered what was on the menu. The waiter proceeded to order the Hama Chili and the pork dumplings which were both amazing! He then gave my coworker and I a piece of sushi on the house and I wish I could remember what it was. After that we were still a little hungry, so we decided to split a Bluefin Otoro Makimono which was excellent! My coworker went with the Ba Burger, which I tried and was pretty good as well. I loved it here and the vibe was dope! Modern, clean and the music fit the experience. I will be back and suggest others check it out. OOOOO 5 out of 5 Afros read more

Uchi is my favorite restaurant in Austin, and I've been eager to try its sister restaurant Uchibā. Finally visited last weekend for girls night out and it was so worth the hype! First off, the interior. Decor is beautiful and the restaurant has a dark, moody vibe. There is a little lounge area with sofa seating by the bar, standard seating, and outdoor patio seating. We opted for a standard table. Kicked off the experience with lychee martinis (absolutely fantastic cocktail!) and some starters to share. Standout items included the chicken dumplings and chicken karaage - both were phenomenal. I ordered a zero sen maki roll (featuring hamachi with a citrusy kick) for my main, and it was delicious. Ended our meal with "fried milk" dessert, which was so much more epic than it sounds. The name does not do it justice. A must try, so creative and unique! A must visit restaurant and an absolute delight! read more

I had a great lunch at Uchiba. From the moment we arrived, the hostess was friendly and welcoming, and the waiting area was fantastic. Having such a spacious waiting area is honestly such an underrated feature for a restaurant. Our waitress was amazing and took great care of us. She started us off with the yuca chips, which were really good but definitely packed some heat! They were flavorful, but I could only eat a few before my mouth got a little too hot. I ordered the lunch special with the Hama Chili and the Tiger Cry Bao. Both dishes were delicious. The pork belly in the bao is absolutely the thing to order here, perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful. Dessert came with a sorbet that was the perfect refreshing finish to the meal. I also had a glass of their Sauvignon Blanc for just $5, which was surprisingly good wine for the price. I did take the spicy tuna roll and karaage to go for my husband. Those were fine, but not quite as impressive as the meal I had. Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience and I would definitely come back. read more

I visited Uchiba for the first time over a holiday weekend in January, and soon after even visited sister restaurant Uchiko. I enjoyed all the dishes I got to try at Uchiba, and how they are incredibly vegetarian-friendly! My bf and I had dinner here during MLK weekend, and since it was an early dinner, it overlapped with happy hour pricing. My bf had a Resy credit through an American Express membership, and we were able to use that towards our bill. We started off with brussels sprouts, and then tried several different small, tapa-style dishes. I was able to try the Nasu bao (fried eggplant), the spicy crispy veggie roll, and uchiba fried milk dessert without the marshmallow/gelatin addition. My bf was able to sample the ba burger, pork dumplings, and wagyu tartar plus marsala. All-in-all, everything was at delicious and served with utmost care and professionalism. With happy hour pricing and the Resy credit, it was quite affordable and well-worth what we were able to try! I'm looking forward to future visits here. read more

Came here on a double date and was really excited to check out their $25 lunch special! You get to choose an appetizer, entree, and get their seasonal sorbet. These are full portions too! They have this special every day. Since I'm pregnant, it's not recommended for me to eat raw fish. I was sad I couldn't have the Hama chili (my husband did though!) but I know it's delicious!! We've had it at their parent restaurant, Uchi. So I opted for the salad. As an appetizer, I thought it was gonna be a small portion but it was massive!! It's topped with a lot of shredded cheese too. It's good but I had to take some of it to-go. For my entree, I got the chicken karaage. Solid choice! I devoured it all. The sorbet was yummy too! I don't normally like sorbets just because of how sour they are but I think the coconut part of it really stood out to me. It was refreshing and ended the meal nicely. I definitely wanna be back! This was such a great meal! read more

Words cannot describe how much I love Uchiba! The service, ambiance and food speaks for itself really. One of the best sushi restaurants in town and it's always busy for good reason. Did I also mention they have an amazing happy hour? I love the vibe of Uchiba and the fact they have so many vegetarian options too which works well for many of my friends. Make sure to sit at the sushi bar it's so fun talking to the chefs. They have amazing service but I will say sometimes you do have to wait for your table even with a reservation. It is worth it though and I will keep going back to Uchiba! read more

Best unagi that I have had in 10+ years. Last was in San Francisco. It's warm, it's got a slight char & is magnificent. Also loved the pork bao and crudo.

Food was great but service ended up ruining the experience for my party. We came from Houston for a bachelorette party because our bride loves their potbelly; she didn't even get to try it because our server (Astra) dropped the ball & didn't put in the orders before the kitchen closed. Thank you to John (manager) for helping to rectify the situation. Food - most of us took advantage of the lunch special. I tried the Hama chili and karaage plus the pork dumplings. The food was actually pretty tasty. I paired everything with an espresso martini for an afternoon pick me up and it was well crafted. I know they have sister companies in my city so I may visit. read more

Tried their lunch pre-fix menus and it's quite a deal! For $25, you get an appetizer, main course and a dessert. The hama chili by itself is $23.50! I loved the crudo's and the karaage was fantastic as well. The burger is filling, but the fries are very salty. Finally, their sorbet is fresh and flavorful. A perfect way to end a meal. Service is top notch! We found ourselves having a 2 hour lunch, but they can speed up the pace if you need. Overall, a great spot for happy hour and a lunch deal! read more

Oh my goodness gracious!!!!!! First of all, SPENCER, the incredible effervescent, kind, funny, knowledgeable waiter that we were lucky enough to have was probably the best service I've had in a long while! He taught us how to properly eat a roll, gave us incredible suggestions AND made us feel so special while we celebrated a birthday and engagement! Give him a raise ASAP! Now to the food! Holy Cow! We came for HH and ordered everything Spencer suggested and we loved EVERYTHING!!!!!!!! we came for HH which was so worth it!!!! We got so much it was hard to keep track! But some of our favs were the edamame dumplings, bincho, hiramasa,bluefin akami and the bluefin tartare! The service here was really top notch and the food matches it!! Incredible place read more

Food: I was pleasantly surprised! If you enjoy sushi definitely give this place a try, don't hesitate. Everything was so fresh, and flavorful, the smallest bites packed so much in taste. Easily moved up to my favorite sushi in Austin. Service: the service was exquisite. They did not miss! Added bonus: every time our sushi was brought out to the table they told you what you were having and it made it feel like we had a private chef I loved this! Ambiance: we arrived at 4:15pm on a Monday and it wasn't full it was quiet and calm, until about 6ish it became very packed, bar was full and felt more lively. The aesthetics gave you can dress casually or dress up, lounge type couch area, bar seating and table mixed with booth seating as well as outside patio dining. Very clean, very dim, felt chill and comfortable. Bottom line: the menu may be a difficult read if not use to an authentic Japanese style sushi place but they will answer all your questions to help you decide but other than that I think there's a good variety of things to try on their menu for everyone. Say yes to this place! Just go! read more

Ok while waiting in the lobby to figure out what to order, a lot of reviews mentions chef Austin and to request him. We did not request Austin but when we sat down at the sushi bar, guess who our chef was!!! We got Austin and It was meant to be. He was able to recommend dishes to us. We go to a lot of omakases and they don't offer that at this location but he curated and organized the dishes in perfect order. I don't remember what I ate but I do remember that I would be sad once this dinner was over. We requested recommendations that were more raw fish than cooked items. Each bite was better than the last. The dessert we highly recommend is the fried milk- wow, not too sweet and it was delicious. Perfect date night! Thank you Austin. read more

Made a last minute reservation and got sat right away. The restaurant is clean, moody, and slightly upbeat. The food wasn't bad, but the chicken dumplings had a really weird taste to it. The cocktails were simple as was the nigiri. If looking for something light to eat would recommend. read more

Had the veggie ramen today for lunch and it was kinda mid! I expected a significantly more upscale and eventful ramen from a place like Uchiba. The flavor was hard to identify, it was very low on the broth, and truly nothing special about the dish itself. The service on the other hand as always ws absolutely top notch. Always feel so spoilt here. read more

I dropped in for lunch & sat at the bar. Service was quick & friendly. They have some surprisingly good lunch specials including a $25 set, but I decided to slightly splurge for the Sushi Oma, which included a sesame ramen salad, Hama chili, hand roll & 2 nigiri. It ended up being the perfect amount of food & everything was exceptional! They also have petit lunch cocktails for $5-7. The restaurant is beautiful & was lively for lunch. Outdoor seating is also available. read more

Went to Uchiba for dinner today and it was quite yummy and a good ambiance on the patio (which is dog friendly!) It's upscale sushi and izakaya. Our favorites were the Hama chili (yellowtail dish), the otoro (fatty tuna) and the hot rock Wagyu beef. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable of the menu and what pairs well together, very friendly to our dog, and overall just a delight. They even offered a few dishes complimentary. The menu is on the pricier side but we want to come back for happy hour omakase. read more

I know this is a sushi restaurant but I have to start by saying that they had the best lychee martini I have ever had in my entire life. That is not an exaggeration; it was so light and refreshing but somehow also packed a bit of a punch without tasting of alcohol. As for the food itself, it was also really good! My friend and I split the uchiba salad (so good but I def prefer the dressing at uchi) and the kinoko skewers. I also had the watermelon nigiri which include goat cheese and a fig chutney. While it wasn't for me, I really appreciate them offering something so new and exciting. I also had the inari maki which was also done really well! I also just loved the energy and vibes of the uchiko! The servers were super attentive and allowed us to stay a little while longer while we caught up on life. read more

To date this has been the best sushi that I've ever had! From Tuna, Salmon, and Waygu! There are so many options. I enjoyed every single last one. This place was hopping around 6pm. It's got a nice upscale moody vibe. read more

I managed to snag a same day Sunday reservation thanks to a cancellation and YES, immediately add Uchiba to your list! Just like Uchiba's sister restaurants, Uchi and Uchiko, Uchiba offers the same fresh, deliciousness but in a less formal setting. The interior is velvet, modern, and effortlessly classy. We were pleasantly surprised to find a prix fixe offering during lunch on a Sunday. For only $25, the pre fixe includes an appetizer, entrée, and sorbet--UNREAL. I ordered the Hama Chili and the Karaage. Hama Chili, super refreshing and packed with the best flavors in solid cuts. As for the karaage, elevated chicken nuggets with a kick. But the real star? The 9-course omakase offered during happy hour for only $45. You get the same fine-dining quality and service as their sisters, along with some elevated comfort dishes for the more simple eaters such as the Ba Burger. read more

Uchiba is BOMB. I came here with a friend for brunch one day because I heard they did a $25 3 course menu on the weekends. Can confirm they do! It comes with one small item, one larger "entree," and a dessert sorbet. I got one of their sashimi sushi apps, it was small but DELICIOUS. My entree was the Uchiba burger, and dessert was a raspberry coconut sorbet. I also got the "hachi no hiza" cocktail at my server's rec when I asked about a floral/herbal option and it was lovely. My friend got the lychee martini which I tried and also LOVED, it had the perfect amount of sweetness. She also got the gyutoro donburi entree and three of the nigiri options. The total was about $85 before tax and tip, which I think is pretty standard. I'm giving 5 stars because for a nice place in Austin they do a great job, but they would knock it out of the park if the portion sizes were a bit bigger! I did leave still ready to eat a bit but I went home and had a small snack and I felt perfect. The ambiance is also very nice, it's upscale but not overly fancy. Bathrooms are very clean and all the servers are very kind. Would definitely rec a visit - I do think out of Uchiko, Uchi, and this spot that this one gives you the best bang for your buck, by far!! And it's just as upscale, if not maybe even more so than the other spots. read more

We were a party of 3 just having a ladies lunch with 1 lady that had been to Uchiba's for dinner and was our first visit for lunch. No parking available, it's downtown so you're on your own. There is parking at the Austin central library upon availability. We ended up at the building across the street that cost us $30 which was ok for downtown and 2 1/2-3hrs but this isn't always feasible for others. We had a bunch of nigiri (sake salmon, sake toro, bluefin otoro) and maki sushi (Hama chili, black zero sen), chicken donburi (not even close to traditional), it was very salty and formed into a chicken sausage and other sushi's that I may have failed to mention. We shared a black sesame seed ice cream that was the only generous option (3 scoops). Service was good, attentive but not enthusiastic. We had a few $7 lunch special cocktails that were reasonable and refreshing. Pro's: I liked the limited seating so the atmosphere is not the typical Austin norm of loud and overly crowded. We did make reservations. Cons: You're limited to JUST lunch menus, no option of dinner menu selections. We wanted uni, and others but that was a "no go" Wasabi was not offered and asked if we could have some with soy. When our $400+ check arrived, a teeny pinch bowl of maybe 1/2 tsp of wasabi cost $8 each which was not mentioned! This ruined it for me. It's the little things such as this that gives me negative vibes. We don't mind paying for good food, I just thought this was extremely ridiculous. So what could have been an additional tip to our waitstaff, was decreased, sorry. Upfront communication always works, no surprises. We all traveled from northwest to dine here and I'm not sure I'd return. I don't think it was worth all the hype. read more

Just ok. The ambiance at the restaurant is excellent, and the downtown location is hard to beat. The service was also great--attentive and professional throughout the evening. However, Uchiba follows the same formula as Uchi and Uchiko: extremely small, tasting-style portions that feel more like bites than actual dishes. While the presentation is polished, the portion sizes make it difficult to feel satisfied - especially after spending a significant amount of money. You will leave hungry, which makes the overall experience hard to justify. At a certain point, great plating and atmosphere can't make up for portions that feel more like samples than a meal. In my opinion, there are plenty of better options downtown. Unfortunately, I've tried to like the Uchi restaurants, but the concept just doesn't do it for me. read more

The menu prices and what they charged on the receipt at the end had some 50 cent differences. This happened w multiple items. Not a big deal at this price point tbh but surprising to see at a restaurant I think overall i personally prefer uchi more still. But still a nice place to try. Interior is really beautiful. Recommend getting: Spicy tuna- 5/5- really good. My personal favorite dish. The green onion aioli is really yummy. The flavors felt like it changed for me at the end. Cucumber was very fresh. And the nice salt finish at the crispy part to end my bite was nice Bluefin otoro 5/5- melt in the mouth. You need to add some of the sauce w it. Prefer this over the zuke. Very nicely flavor. And wasabi was really nice and high quality. Had such a nice subtle flavor w it Kankitsu sake 4.5/5- really good. Would recommend getting Yucca chips 4/5- really good, nice portion size to share mainly liked the chips. Very nicely crisp and thin yucca chips. The hummus is very citrusy and was less into that because of how sharp the citrus was. Bit the yucca chips itself were really nice and still an interesting unique dish to try Hama chili- 4.5/5- such nice pairings w the orange and salty soy sauce and slight chili flavor. More for interesting flavor combo and a classic for the uchis Could get: Sea bream- 4/5- had a really nice vinagrette and pear pairing w the sea bream. It was really good and felt like it was a nice balance of flavors Skippable- for me but friends would like. So think it just depends if you usually like these dishes or not: Smoky wagyu skewer 3/5- can split one cube of a bite for 6 people, very tender and smoky flavor. Apple flavor is a smaller hint Toasted scallop -3.5/5- the rice was very good nice and warm soft texture Sake toro 3/5- would have been a 5/5 for me. think they shouldnt have added the ginger. That slightly ruined the item as it overpowered any taste of the fish for me. Otherwise. The rice is some of the nicest sushi rice ive had. A little bit sweet and warm and very good. Salmon wouldve been good as well Karaage 3.5- has a slight buffalo chicken like flavor but less sharp Bluefin zuke 3.7/5 - good if you like tuna. Has a nice flavor. Recommend dipping w some of the soy sauce Seared scallop 3.7/5- the better scallop dish i felt lthey have as we ordered the toasted one as well. the buttery sauce is nice Pho wagyu dumpling- 4/5- does have a nice texture for the dumpling skin. But it is dumplings. So can be skippable if you dont think its worth it Desserts- Shaved ice 3/5- if you like fruity tastes. The shaved ice is really fresh. Inside is a sorbet. But the highlight is the salt on the shaved ice Fried milk- 4/5 - very interesting and unique. Nice combination of flavors. But wouldnt necessarily crave. The sweet cream ice cream was unexpected Chocolate creamix- 3.7/5- again a lot of interesting unique combinations of pudding, crunch and peanut butter and nice mixture of textures. But dont think you need to go out of your way to get read more

Had a good time at lunch here this week! Uchibā had a good ambiance with great lighting and decor. Staff was nice and knowledgeable. We got the prix fixe lunch special which was a pretty good deal. The sake crudo was fresh and light tasting with delicate flavor. I got the karaage for the second course with was a generous portion and had lots of herbs on top. It ended with a kiwi sorbet that had so crunchy sesame seeds on top. Overall, delicious and high quality so a pretty good deal for the price! read more
