Really Great Quality! Believe the hype, we did the signature tasting along with one extra dish and everything was incredible. Especially the short rib which surprised me most! read more

Uchi's contemporary take on traditional Japanese small plates is something quite different for Denver. They've somehow elevated something as simple as avocado nigiri (TRY IT) while also creating inventive rolls that include pork belly and beer mustard (ham & eggs). Many of their dishes have that perfect balance of flavors and textures... you taste salt, sweet, and tart while also getting a crunch and soft texture. Also, save room for dessert!! Truly outstanding! Unfortunately the restaurant loses two stars because our server, Kevin, neglected us for an hour before I asked a host to send a manager to our table. One thing I absolutely detest is when I feel like I'm being treated differently than other diners (for whatever reason). Other than our server, every employee at Uchi offered us exceptional customer service from the manager, Taylor, to the hosts, to the food runners. I recommend sitting with Kymm if she's available because she knows every detail of the menu and is happy to answer any questions. I'll dine at Uchi again, I'll just be cognizant of who my server is. read more

Slow. Slow. Slow. Did I mention slow? Came in for a "quick sushi fix" at 510pm. Sat at the bar. Ordered two rolls, a hand role and a beer with 5 mins of sitting. Finally paid at 645pm. Wait staff allowed people to congregate behind me, bumping me. You order to the sushi chef, but it's so loud hearing is not a given. After I asked where my 2nd roll was (about an hour in), the chef did give me a complimentary snack.. was interesting? The sushi was just okay, editable. Rice was under salted. No soy sauce provide. Was schooled that they are already "sauced". Well, I couldn't taste it.. bland. High staff to customer ratio, would have expected faster service. I won't be returning. read more

Just went in for social hour this evening and had such a pleasant experience! The lighting, decor and ambiance of the restaurant was so beautiful! The service was lovely and the food was outstanding. So happy to have this new spot in the neighborhood - we will be back soon! :) read more

I cannot say enough great things about Uchi. So much of it has already been said in other postings. They are on another level as far as food, class, and hospitality. Other Denver restaurants had better beware because Uchi is raising the bar. Unbelievable management. Amazing and attentive servers. Ridiculously tasty food. By far one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. GO HERE! You will be glad you did. read more

So good. They were so accommodating to the fact they had to change our seats and had to wait a long time for our dishes. They gave us a small discount. The sushi was so good like everyone says! We got the chef course meal. Best sushi I've had read more

AMAZING FOOD! Every dish was so well curated and plated. The tastes incorporated in each dish are impeccable! The service was spot on, prompt delivery of food, regular check ins, and even a treat on the house because it was a birthday dinner! I cannot speak highly enough of Uchi. It's definitely a favorite Denver spot for me now and I'd recommend to all friends and as a must visit for anyone visiting Denver. read more

We sat at the sushi bar. The chef was incredibly kind. He delivered us his favorite dishes, and they didn't disappoint. Best food and service I've had in Denver... and I've been to so many restaurants. Deserves all 5 stars. read more

I had been looking forward to going to uchi for months and finally got to go for my birthday. We did the chefs tasting and we were very excited since they said it would be paced out and we wanted to enjoy our dinner slowly. The courses came out so quickly that we had 3 courses in front of us at once. The food was great but I felt we were being rushed to leave. Once the meal was over my boyfriend asked the host about what happened to the birthday celebration and it somehow got left out so they did bring us champagne after we paid. It's a beautiful restaurant but I did leave disappointed after expecting something very special. read more

I have eaten at Uchi Houston and was blown away by the food, service and atmosphere! I am a bit biased as my oldest son has been a server in Uchi Houston, Uchi Austin, and now Uchi Denver. Give it a try- you won't be disappointed!!!!!! read more

We have been here several times but this was our first time back since they reopened due to Covid. The precautions put in place put us at ease. The service was great! The food was wonderful as well. We ordered a few things off the happy hour menu as well as a few items from the regular menu. I ordered their take on a gin and tonic and it was wonderful! The yuzu definitely gave it a special flare. The spicy tuna crunch roll was excellent but the mayonnaise based sauce served with it wasn't a great accompaniment. We also ordered the king crab special and while delicious, it was way overpriced for the amount we got. There was enough for my husband and I to have 1 1/2 bites each. The pumpkin tempura was sooo good! I highly recommend ordering this every dang time. Overall, I'd stick to happy hour items and maybe a few less expensive things from the regular menu. read more

Not your traditional Japanese dinner, but always fresh, delicious and creative. Ask a server to surprise you (with some parameters) - you will not be disappointed. Also, do not miss the cocktails or dessert. Fried milk is one of my favorites. read more

Coming here was indeed a happy accident. Dinner plans were to go to Work and Class, we didn't realize they were closed on Mondays. We wanted to find a place nearby and decided to try Uchi. The entire dining experience was phenomenal. Kamen our server had the chef prepare a special vegetarian tasting menu and not only was the presentation gorgeous it was delicious as well. Kamen was super attentive and we will definitely come again! Only complaint, the menu was difficult to read with the dim lighting. We thought it was just us but several other tables around us had to hold the menu close up. read more

Busy fun vibe. Felt like the spot to be. My wife loved that aspect. Fish was super fresh and awesome. Service was great and the waiters knew the beer menu - which I appreciate. Would give 5 stars but the sushi is pre-seasoned (which was very very good) yet I was still yearning for a little soy, wasabi and ginger...which I realize isn't the point of this place - still I think it should be offered for block heads like me - almost forgot - order the fried milk - was insanely good! read more

Overpriced, tiny servings, and limited gluten free options. Not sure I will give a second try. Great ambience

Thank you for an amazing curbside experience!! I was nervous the food wouldn't be quite as good under covid restrictions and without the amazing service you provide, but it was. My order was ready and waiting when I got there, and all the food was just fantastic. read more

Best sushi in Colorado, by far, and some of the best sushi I have had period. Not cheap, although happy hour is reasonable. Can't really go wrong with anything you order, everything was exceptional read more

I'll give it four stars and I'm being generous. I've had Uchi probably 40-50 times living off Montrose in Houston. I've also had the Uchi in ATX several times. Prefer the decor of ATX over the Houston and Denver decor. Neither here nor there... food - no black cod. One of my favorite things of Uchi HTX was the buttery black cod. Oh well....chefs counter was fine. Enjoyed watching everyone work. Hamachi plates were delicious. Kelsey our sushi chef was pretty un-personable and rolled her eyes when I asked about the sushi roll she forgot about. #awkward. Sashimi was fresh and great. Complementary valet is definitely a perk. After not being to Uchi for a few years and finally eating it here, it's not as awesome as I use to think it was...maybe it was the service. Don't get me wrong, it's good...But Sushi Den and Izakaya are just as good with more options, friendlier sushi chefs all for the same price. read more

Best sushi, service and ambiance in Denver! We had the chef's tasting menu. Everything was delicious. Brittnee, our server was extremely knowledgeable about sushi and very friendly. The craft cocktails were delicious and inventive. I would say this is the best sushi in Denver with Matsuhisa in 2nd place, sushi Sasa in 3rd, and Izakaya/Sushi Den in 4th. Two of us spent $250 on food and 4 drinks. Expensive but worth it. Flavors you won't find anywhere else. I will be back! read more

Wonderful dining experience all around - food, ambiance, and service. We sat at the sushi bar. Matt took care of us. He was very welcoming and did a great job of explaining the menu. After trying his first couple recommendations, we gave him the reins. Every bite of food was absolutely delicious - the kind of delicious where you close your eyes for a second to savor it. Our favorites were the Hama chili, the Japanese sea bream, the lobster special with brown butter, hamachi nigiri with aged soy, and the gyutoro. Matt saved the gyutoro (72-hour short rib) for last - a melt in your mouth burst of pure umami - still thinking about it. I'm not a big desert person, but so glad we decided to take Matt's last recommendation - the banana cake with coffee ice cream - I would have never chosen it and it was ridiculously good. Thanks for a fabulous evening Uchi - already planning my next visit. read more

Being a former Austinite, I was SUPER excited when I saw Uchi open here in Denver! It did not disappoint (and possibly was even better than the Austin Uchi???) The service was 10/10 and the food was phenomenal. Very fresh and tasty. The happy hour has some awesome deals too. read more

This place is heaven. The service is insanely good. The food is perfect. When did Denver get this good? Better sushi than anything I ever tried on the West Coast or in NYC. read more

Small portions of very fresh fish with interesting accompaniments in both flavor and texture. The tempura (agemono) was fried in fresh oil and surprisingly tasty. If you love cilantro, the jasmine cream dessert is unique and amazing! Such a fun culinary experience- and our kids loved it too! Definitely coming back. read more

If you want to take someone to dinner for a special occasion or even just a good date this is where you go. It can be a little pricey but it will be the best sushi you can get in Denver! read more

A good location, with amazing staff and deliciously consistent quality of food. The happy hour is a great deal, but make sure to arrive early to be seated right away. We did tastings from the happy hour menu (every tamaki is great but yellowtail was our favorite) with a couple selections from the regular menu. The food was delivered in perfect timing from plate to plate. Our server Arvin was friendly and hospitable, knowledgeable and engaging. Overall, the consistency matches the vibe and everything is great! read more

We celebrated my husband's 70th birthday here!! Thanks for the wonderful meal and service!!

Amazing service, and incredible food! Our waiter Maggie was extremely awesome as well!

Excellent food and service. We came here for their "soft" opening, so I expected to have to deal with a few kinks being worked out, but was pleasantly surprised. Service was impeccable, as well as super delicious food. The sushi was appropriately priced and really fresh tasting. We also had the lamb shoulder , which would definitely be on the pricier end (not a huge piece) but phenomenal flavor. Also tried a few of the desserts and can definitely suggest the fried milk (ice cream, chocolate, salted caramel and something else). I was very pleased and think it would be a great date night or special occasion spot. read more

This is the best sushi restaurant experience I've ever had. First of all, our server Nichole was awesome!! She transplanted from their Houston restaurant and spoiled us rotten with her knowledge and hospitality. She gets major kudos for getting me to try uni......and liking it. We really appreciated her knowledge of the menu and our tastes. They take reservations up until closing which is great because you're not rushed and the kitchen stays open until the last menu item is served. The food is not typical of your average sushi restaurant. Uchi really knows how to prepare and present food. There is no wasabi or soy sauce on the table, although it is available upon request, because YOU DON'T NEED IT. The flavors speak for themselves. There is some major creativity going on in the kitchen. A major creativity kudos to the pastry chef as well!! I would recommend the chocolate popcorn dessert with the popcorn ice cream. We were out to have a great dining experience and slow played the chefs selection menu. It can definitely get loud during peak times but that's just a reflection of what a good time everyone is having. If you're not afraid to spend some money and have a great dining experience, I would recommend Uchi. read more

Great food and amazing service. Rooftop greenhouse skylight. Personal sushi bar chef Kelsey was amazing! We managed to make it to the Happy hour menu before 6:30. Great value! Highly recommended! read more

Divine food and amazing atmosphere! Some of the best sushi I've ever had, couldn't have celebrated my birthday any better.

Phenomenal sushi! With fish is flown in daily from Japan's fish market and veggies grown in a greenhouse directly overhead, this is the freshest sushi in Denver and it is worth every penny. I highly recommend sitting at the sushi bar! read more

Excellent flavors, service and atmosphere. Our 15 year old son is now a sushi fan. Oh, no!

The most phenomenal sushi I've ever had. Yes it's expensive, but the food is so good that you won't care. I would recommend making a reservation, because we got there right at dinner opening (5pm) and there was a long line outside. Ambience is wonderful, and the servers are very knowledgable. They don't serve their food with soy sauce on the side, but at no point did I think anything needed it. It was that good. To be frank, if you are a cheapskate, this is not your spot. read more

Excellent sushi period. Combinations of flavors, attentive service and staff recommendations. Upper end sushi in Denver to be sure.

Just go here! Been to the one and Dallas and was so happy to see a Denver location, PLEASE come to st Pete fl as well. The service was amazing, constantly cleaning, busing, and serving water without being intrusive. We want for happy hour and ended up doing a happy hour tasting menu because everything was so good we couldn't stop ordering! I would say pass on the rolls and go straight for the tastings. Each dish we kept saying was our favorite and continued to be impress. Worth every penny and more. read more

If you go here make sure you ask to sit with Richi. He's hands down the best chef I've ever met and makes the best sushi I've ever had.

Without a doubt the best sushi in Colorado! Hamasaka is the best way to go. This restaurant honestly compares to New York style restaurants and the flavors are always fresh. read more

This is my absolute favorite (higher priced) sushi place in Denver. The food is amazing and the service is just as great. They were very accommodating and kind everytime I went. This place is a little on fancier side, but worth the prices and chance to go out and dress up. They get busy from about 6-9, but if you go early or late they'll be a little slower. You'll probably have to make reservations beforehand to get a table. 10/10 will recommend and go again! read more

Loved this place. The food was fresh, delicious and full of great flavor combinations. Service was on point, as well. Definitely recommend, especially for happy hour! read more
