Seafood isn't my thing but the wife wanted to check this place out. Reservations are limited to 2 people. We arrived about 15 minutes before the reservation and valet parked at the stand across the street on Grant. The valet parking is $10 unless you scan the QR code at the end of the meal. The room is a small room behind the main restaurant. The wife really liked all of the offerings from the set meal and the à la cart offerings. The meal ran on time and the staff was friendly and cleared the plates and refilled our water quickly. She is already planning on going back.

15 course $120 omakase

This omakase experience was amazing. I've done many omakase this is probably on my top 3. Came here for an anniversary dinner 7:30pm on a Saturday. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The seats were filled and the ambiance and environment of the restaurant gave very modern Japanese.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The table top is made out of copper and the way seating is makes this a very intimate dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Everything was crazy good. Each bite builds the more you chew. The ingredients used tasted very balanced and intentional.

part of the Uchi family and honestly so good! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Right when you stepped in the vibe is intimate with dim lighting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got their $50 happy hour omakase and it was so worth it! I wished I had ordered more off of their à la carte menu! Service was prompt! Fish quality is amazing! It is a quick omakase with 60 minutes per seating! I will definitely come back!

This was my very first omakase at Oheya in Montrose and it truly exceeded my expectations. I was previously very fond of sushi and would stick to rolls and simple nigiri as I was comfortable with them. I was amazed at just how fresh and intricate the flavors of everything was. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm a sucker for ambiance and I loved sitting next to strangers while surrounding the chefs at a simple and chic bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The paper fish donning our names was truly the cherry on top.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The chef and staff were very attentive and guided us through the entire experience explaining the ingredients and the best way to consume the pieces. I am very excited to return again when the menu is rotated.

Happy hour menu
Christy P.

I paid $50 for a 10 course omakase for happy hour that not only met but exceeded my expectations. It started out strong with flounder, which is a personal favorite of mine, but it got progressively better with each consecutive course. I honestly don't know how I could pick a favorite out of all the courses. They finished with a homemade candy bar and honestly, I've never been a huge fan of the Uchi brand's desserts, but this was far and away my favorite dessert that I've had from them. The only thing that I wasn't crazy about was the lychee martini as I've definitely had better. Even if you make a reservation for their happy hour Omakase, you can still order other à la carte items, and they recommend you do so at the beginning of the meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Location-wise, it's basically across the street from Marmo, and when you enter the little opening from the street, it's the door on the right. It's not super easy to see the writing by the door when it's not bright out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was fortunate enough to find a parking spot on the street instead of valet, because I despise valet. Service was OK--some employees were more personable than others, but that's to be expected anywhere. I will definitely come back and hopefully sooner than later.

Finally !! Reservations after 1 month. If you are looking to get seatings for Happy Hour Omakase be sure to book ASAP for 5-6 PM. Omakase is for 60 mins, 10 courses for $50. Be sure to order your a la carte once seated. We order a few nigiris and of course their delicious Brussels sprouts. Drinks are really good, choose from Lychee Martinis or Kara Kyoto for $6. Everything was delicious, fish was fresh and drinks was amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lighting and music was on point so you definitely get a romantic atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I didn't feel rush and when 10 course was done, I still had 15 mins to order more drinks or a la carte plates. Must try and will do again. Looking at $100 per person tonight and no regrets . Left feeling full and satisfied!

Another great night at Oheya! Wonderful food and great service! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Calm ambiance with some relaxing but upbeat music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All the food was wonderful and impressive! 10/10 One of the fav dishes of the night was the dessert!

Kristin J.

I absolutely loved the sushi here! Service was top notch and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the atmosphere and setting was so intimate and unique.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant looks kind of like a wood cabin from the outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went during happy hour, so 50 dollars for the food was a great price point in my opinion especially for an omakase. There is plenty of parking in the garage nearby. I can't wait to come back!

Perfect for special occasions! You truly cannot beat a $50 10-course , 12-seat Omakase. Chef Justin and his team were all very skilled and personable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space is very small.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Try the sake

Chante N.

i am so happy that i chose oheya to be my first omakase experience. their dinner service is flawless!! the plates are beautiful, flavorful, and decadent the chef was kind with a great sense of humor! i did the 15 courses and it did not disappoint! i was satisfied with the 15 courses but my undeniable lust for the dry aged fish got the better of me and i could not help myself!!! oheya, means room in a house. [[HIGHLIGHT]]the restaurant is nestled to the right in the uchi building. the lighting is soft, the vibes are cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]there was no dress code and everyone was dressed hi-low end, so no worries on being dressed to the nines or coming in after work.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] the staff are inviting and attentive regardless of attire. will definitely be back for happy hour bonne appétit

It saddens me to write this review. I am a diehard Uchi fan. I have been coming to their Houston for years and previous enjoyed their Austin location. I even enjoy both Uchiko locations. However, I was not impressed with their separate Oheya omakase. First off, [[HIGHLIGHT]]it's a bit weird, not much signage outside so we ended up entering through the main door and crossing back over.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We booked the 5 pm on a Saturday and we were the only ones to dine. That in itself was a bit sad to see.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But I've been to other omakases where it's just us and you end up getting a good experience with the chefs. Nope. They were very quiet and got very little Info about the dishes we were having the presentation on most of the dishes were lacking as well. I've gotten more explanations from my server at the normal Uchi. There was only one of three that even said anything to us. The one waitress was very good with clearing plates. It was $120?/pp for 12 pieces? It wasn't super high but not a single dish was impressive and the dessert was down right bad. I would stick to normal uchi moving forward.

Suzuki Nigiri
William T.

Tried the $50 omakase--totally worth it! Fresh, delicious nigiri with creative combos. Loved the temaki and kanpachi most. Quick, fun counter service watching the chef prepare everyone's nigiri. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Interior definitely had a cute and cozy vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Solid choice for affordable, high-quality omakase. Highly recommend!

William L.

I was excited to hear about Oheya as Uchi is one of my favorite restaurants in all of Houston. You get a more traditional omakase experience here with a dedicated private room that seats maybe 12 people. Apart from the setting though, I did not find the taste of food a step up from what you would get at Uchi/Uchiko. Unfortunately, you are paying for the experience and not necessarily for better taste in my opinion here. Menu rotates monthly, but I feel I got a good representative menu my go around. $175 per person but they'll charge ya $8/$10 for still/sparkling water so really 185 a person if you don't order a real drink. I think you have better options for Omakase in Houston for similar taste. We did go to the Velvet taco across the street to top-off since we came in hungry Would I Go Out of My Way to Try? No, would stick to Uchi or another place for Omakase Would I Return? No Ambiance- 8/10 Food Taste- 8/10 Service- 10/10 Value- 5/10

5 Stars - Authentic Szechuan that absolutely nails the classics…read more During our short trip to Houston, as a custom, we were determined to find real Szechuan food, and luckily we found Hu's Kitchen. The location is a bit unassuming, and parking is definitely tough (the spaces are very shallow), but the second we walked through the doors and smelled the Szechuan peppercorns, I knew we were in exactly the right place. I generally judge a Szechuan restaurant by their 夫妻肺片 (Fuqi Feipian)--which they cleverly name "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" on the menu. They completely nailed it. The beef, tripe, and tendon were incredibly cohesive together, yet you could tell each component was prepared and marinated in a slightly different way to perfectly highlight its specific texture. The chili oil was right on the spot. We went through a massive bowl of rice just eating this dish alone. Honestly, if I weren't feeding a family of four, I could have just ordered that and been perfectly happy. While the Fuqi Feipian proves their skill with dry dishes, the 水煮魚片 (Fish in Szechuan Hot Chili Oil) proves their skill with wet ones. It's another must-order. The execution was flawless--we didn't just finish the tender fish chunks, we ate every last piece of cabbage soaked in that incredible chili broth. For my two daughters who can't handle the heat, we ordered the fried rice, garlic pork ribs with onion, and the 紅燒獅子頭 (Giant Meatball with Cabbage). The giant meatball was spectacular. The kids completely devoured it on their own, but I managed to steal a bite, and it instantly brought back childhood memories of exactly how this dish is supposed to taste. We also had the Dan Dan Noodles, which were great and rounded out the meal perfectly. I loved all of the dishes we tried. Should we ever find ourselves in Houston again, we will absolutely be revisiting this hidden gem.

My mom wanted steamed fish with ginger, scallions, and that light sweet soy sauce. Hu's Cooking…read moredelivered! When we ordered, they mentioned it'll take about 20 mins but it came out in 10. No complaints here since we were starving from an 8 hour road trip. The Dan Dan Noodles...I had high expectations but sadly this dish fell short. I recommend Hu's Cooking to use a bigger bowl and more sauce because it was difficult to mix the noodles and the sauce wasn't...saucing, unfortunately. I wish there was more flavor in this dish. The Scallion Pancake was super over-fried and oily. See image in my review. The outer parts of the pancake were fried to a crisp and only a small circumference in the center stayed chewy. I know Chinese tends to be oily but this pancake soaked up way too much oil. Half a Peking duck: super great price for so much meat. The difficulty when eating this dish is gnawing the meat off the sharp bones of the duck. Mapo Tofu with white rice: pretty easy staple, no complaints here. Dinner on a Saturday was packed but we got seated quickly and food arrived fast.

First time here for a friend's birthday. They had reservations for a private big table in the back…read morefor 10 people. We had 1 waiter and a few runners. The place was very busy but service was great! Quick and thorough. I had several sake bombs but that didn't cloud my judgement! The food was amazing here. Definitely worth the slightly higher price than your average sushi place. There isn't a bad choice on the menu. We will be back for their lunch specials as they have event better pricing and dishes you can only get then.

FOOD POISONING I…read morehate to give Kata a bad review because I actually enjoy eating here. However, I currently have food poisoning after eating here yesterday. 30 minutes after coming back from lunch break, I had diarrhea. I thought maybe it was just a bad day, but I am still suffering from this. I have to use the toilet many times a day, and I feel so nauseous. If it keeps getting worse, I am might have to consider going to urgent care. My boss ordered a salad that had the same veggies that came with the pan seared duck breast about a week ago, and also had diarrhea. He pieced two and two together. We believe that it's the veggies. I am worried that what I have is the parasite that's going around right now, cyclosporiasis. On another note, I wanted to try their specials. The lamb gyozas were okay. I didn't really like the skin of the gyoza, seemed a bit oily. I was excited to try the pan seared duck breast, but I found it to be a bit overcooked than what I usually have at other restaurants. A bit dry, kinda chewy, but the blueberry sauce was good. The salad that came on the side was good, but I believe that's what gave me diarrhea.

I rarely write reviews but had to for UCHI because it was just that good. We ordered vegan omekase…read morefor my birthday and it was phenomenal. Definitely the best vegan meal I've had in Houston; there was a high level of thought and care put into the flavors and textures. Appreciate the excellent service as well. Overall, delightful experience... highly recommended if you want to treat yourself.

This was my first time at Uchi and overall such a great experience…read more The ambience is dark, moody, and perfect for a date night--refined without feeling stuffy or overly formal. Parking was a little tricky, but street parking a few blocks away ended up being the best option. I came for happy hour (4-6pm) and sat at the bar. I was surprised you could make reservations for happy hour, but I was still able to walk in and find a seat at the bar without much issue. I ordered a mix of items from the happy hour menu and was impressed by the variety and how reasonable the prices were for the quality. Portions are on the smaller side, but that's expected for a higher-end sushi spot. I especially enjoyed the different sauces and soy variations that came with each dish--it really elevated everything. I tried the tuna, hamachi, fried tempura-style fish, handrolls, and nigiri. The hand rolls were the only miss for me; the filling-to-rice ratio felt a bit off and the seaweed was on the chewier side. To finish, I had the fried milk ice cream dessert (not part of happy hour), and it was honestly one of the best restaurant desserts I've had in a long time. Overall, happy hour is a great way to try a wide range of dishes--both hot and cold--and explore more than just raw fish. I don't drink, so I can't speak to the cocktails, but the drink menu looked solid and diverse.

I had a great experience dining here. A few things I loved:…read morePlenty of parking Beautiful wall art Extensive menu options Menu with images Good service Delicious food It was my first time, and as a first timer I had a lot of questions and didn't know where to start, but our server was very helpful and gave us excellent recommendations. We ordered : Dan Dan Noodles 8/10 Bok choy and mushrooms 8/10 Kung Pao chicken 9/10 Dry fried green beans 9/10 The food looks beautiful and tastes even better, I loved they present the food very pretty. Oh! And The portions are shareable too! I will definitely come back , there is a garden on the side that looks very pretty when you are dining inside, maybe next time if the weather is nice we can sit outside:)

Get the eggplant! Been obsessed with Sichuan food lately,…read moreand my friend recommended this place. I think we may have went on an off day because I have tried takeout form this place that was delicious, but on this day the food wasn't my favorite. We did overall enjoyed our experience and time and I would recommend giving this place a try! We ordered a total of 5 dishes and everything seemed very authentic to Sichuan cooking. With Sichuan cuisine though, a lot of the food will be on the oily side, so keep that in mind. - Eggplant In Spicy Sauce (5/5): Definitely order this dish! You can tell the eggplant was prepared well because it retained its beautiful purple color and luscious shape. The flavor was sweet and savory seeped well into the eggplant. My only comment would be that there wasn't a strong garlic flavor, but it was still so tasty I think it deserved that 5/5! - Mapo Tofu (2.5/5): I came here specifically for the mapo tofu but was left a bit disappointed. The flavor was pretty good and had that strong Sichuan pepper spice that lingers after a while. My issue with the tofu was the consistency of the sauce. I found it to be very thick and clumpy in an unpleasant way, almost like eating little gelatin pieces. I would probably come back to try it again just in case this was a bad batch, but it's hard to compete with wanna boa's mapo tofu. - Spicy and Crispy Chicken (4/5): Pretty juicy and crispy chicken with a slight kick. I love anything fried chicken so I did enjoy this dish but it was pretty standard and there wasn't much to write about. - Red Oil Dumplings (3/5): Pretty standard oil dumplings. They weren't really spicy which would be good for people who can't handle spice. I think I would've liked a bit more meat filling but overall not bad. - Dan Dan Noodles (3/5): I loved the texture of the noodles but I found the sauce to be kinda slippery which made it hard adhere to the noodles. I also thought the flavor could've been a bit stronger. Service/Ambiance: the interior of this place was super cute, especially the upstairs area. I loved the dim lighting and tiny table lamps which gave this place a cozy romantic feeling. The outside was also interesting with an all black exterior and no sign. That might make it hard to notice or find the restaurant, but that did give it a more hidden feeling which was nice. Parking was also abundant and service was great!
