Uchi Denver

The Best Restaurants in Denver | Eater Denver

"Denver lucked out when highly acclaimed restaurateur Tyson Cole chose RiNo as the site for his first branch of Uchi outside of Texas. The modern Japanese destination has lived up the hype surrounding it since its 2018 opening, executing not only sashimi and sushi from scrupulously sourced fish but also a wide array of original creations both raw and cooked: big-eye tuna crudo with Meyer lemon, kohlrabi, and olive relish, say, or seared scallop in chestnut beurre blanc with caviar. The seafood-averse will be no less wowed by the kinoko nabe (a rice dish with mushrooms) or the ham and eggs, a pork belly roll garnished with yolk custard and beer mustard." - Ruth Tobias
