    We went for the karrage and caviar special and what a phenomenal dish!! I would’ve ordered another one, but we also got other dishes off the happy hour menu. The happy hour menu is fantastic too and I just love treating myself to Uchi!! I’m from Texas and would frequent the OG restaurant when it opened and when I moved to Colorado and Uchi opened a restaurant here, I was SO happy!! I just love Uchi and cannot wait to go back for more delicious food!

    My husband and I visited Uchi for our 20th anniversary. We were there for happy hour and we ordered the chefs tasting menu. It was absolutely delicious. It was plenty of food for two people. The server was so knowledgeable, attentive, and responsive to our needs. This is seriously some of the best service we’ve had in years in the Denver eating scene. They surprised us with a sushi roll that we devoured. It was a fabulous night out. Highly recommend.

    The food was excellent, but we specifically asked for two dishes to come out at the same time and our waiter blamed kitchen backup for why they didn’t (he just forgot). Drinks took forever too. He was just okay and frankly if I didn’t feel obligated to tip 20%, he definitely hadn’t earned it. He did the bare minimum, and I just hope for more when at a restaurant like Uchi and spending $500 on a meal.

    Great meal once again. Thank you to the host for accommodating our early arrival, they all were very kind. Jameson our server was wonderful menu knowledge was on point. Thank you for guiding us through dietary restrictions, thank you to the kitchen my husband is allergic to all fish and seafood everything was so flavorful even though we had to change some sauces to accommodate the allergies.
