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!

    My favorites were the Pork Belly, Akami TE (tuna and watermelon), Sake Tom Kha (salmon and coconut) and the Hiramasa Karai (Amberjack with pear). The Wagyu (hot rock and Gyutoro) were awesome; as always!

    The kitchen was unexpectedly slow during our visit but the service really made up for it. The food was overall spectacular. Would definitely visit again.

    Our only complaint was the noise level for our 7pm reservation. Otherwise our server Hannah helped us choose items we loved including the Kinoko Nabe which we can’t wait to order again on our next visit.

    Uchi is always an outstanding experience. I’ve ordered the Omakase three times because I simply cannot make a decision and prefer the chef to tell me what to eat. The entire staff is professional and works as one team. 12/10

    A Culinary Masterpiece – Uchi Austin I visited Uchi Austin in March 2019, and to this day, it remains one of the most unforgettable dining experiences I’ve ever had. The moment I knew I was returning to Austin, the first thing I did was book a table—and it was absolutely worth it. The sushi is the freshest, most creative, and most delicious I’ve had anywhere in the U.S. Every dish is a work of art, both visually and in flavor. The chef’s creativity is truly unmatched—each bite is a surprise, a perfect balance of texture, temperature, and taste. The ambiance is elegant yet relaxed, making it ideal for both special occasions and intimate dinners. The service is phenomenal—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. If you’re in Austin and love sushi or just appreciate culinary artistry, Uchi is a must-visit. It’s not just a meal—it’s an experience.
