About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Hot spot
  • Innovative
Bringing its hallmark level of quality and service to an urban location, Uchi Houston made its debut in 2012 in the former historic Felix space on Westheimer. Melding culinary innovation with an approachable vibe, the menu features items culled from both Uchi and Uchiko in Austin, along with signature seasonal items created by our Chef team. Reservations are encouraged and can be booked online up to 1 month in advance. Walk-in bar seating is available and is subject to wait times. We look forward to serving you, Kanpai!

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Tyson Cole

From the OpenTable editors: Come to Uchi Houston for innovative, Japanese-inspired cuisine, thanks to James Beard Award-winning chef Tyson Cole. Sit at the sleek sushi bar or in the stylish, wood-paneled dining room to feast on spectacular sashimi and sushi, plus standout dishes like wagyu you can cook tableside over a hot rock. For celebrations, opt for the 10-course omakase tasting menu and sake from the restaurant’s extensive collection.

    Our experience at Uchi was top-notch, as always. Uchi never disappoints—not just with the food, but also with the atmosphere and exceptional staff. Michaela was incredibly helpful, encouraging us to try a few new items from the happy hour menu…the Saki Kiwi…very refreshing and flavorful. On a personal note, while I love visiting Uchi for the incredible food, it’s the staff, their conversations and friendship that make the experience truly special. A special shoutout to Hudson and Makayla for making our dinner extra special today. Entire staff is amazing.

    Virginia was a fantastic host to guide us through her recommendations balanced by our preferences. Fantastic service, food, ambience - a friend from Istanbul was with me and he commented that it was the best dining experience in the world that he had had in the last five years.

    Uchi Houston never disappoints. The sushi bar is truly where the magic happens — the chefs were not only incredibly skilled but also super knowledgeable and friendly, which made the experience feel personal and engaging. Happy hour here is a steal. The prices are great, especially for the quality you’re getting. I tried a range of dishes, but the standout for me was the A5 wagyu nigiri topped with caviar — absolutely next level. Perfect balance of rich, buttery flavor and elegance. If you’re into sushi and haven’t sat at the bar at Uchi, you’re missing out. Definitely one of my go-to spots in Houston.
