"Uchibā adds a refined midday option to the Downtown lineup, with lunch served daily from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Highlights include the sushi oma with hama chili, the tuna hand roll, and the ba lunch — a set featuring sesame ramen salad, a salmon hand roll, and two pieces of nigiri alongside a choice of karaage, pork dumplings, or a hot fried chicken bun. A slightly limited sushi and izakaya dinner menu is also available for lunch (sorry, the diner-favorite mushroom dumplings aren’t available during lunch). The dining room blends dark wood, soft lighting, and clean lines for a polished and inviting look. It’s the kind of midday meal that feels like an occasion without breaking the bank." - Darcie Duttweiler
