"Uchi has excellent sushi—but there are more delicious things on the menu. Raw fish should be part of your meal here, but so should a couple of hot dishes, which will help you get full without spending a lot of money on nigiri. Go for the excellent karaage chicken or the kinoko nabe, a hot bowl of crispy rice, mushrooms, an egg yolk, and short rib. But the best thing about Uchi—and the reason we don't panic at the sight of their overwhelmingly large menu—is that everything is excellent. Plus, the restaurant is appropriate for special occasions, but also casual enough to walk in wearing a t-shirt and sit at the sushi bar for a solo meal." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"I love this place so much I shout it out during 'Dream-Girls'! It’s definitely my favorite sushi place in Miami and maybe ever. Ask them to recommend their best dishes and prepare to be happy. This was also right next to the studio where we made C, XOXO, so it was a good celebratory indulgence." - brennan carley
"The James-Beard-winning Uchi, brought to Wynwood in 2021 by Austin-based Hai Hospitality, offers sushi and omakase experiences that include a vegan option. Its sister restaurant, Uchiko, presents a bolder approach to Japanese cuisine with fire-grilled seafood, vegetables, and steaks; cocktails to pair with either concept include the Kumori, a riff on the lychee martini." - Laine Doss
"This Austin import has made a name for itself in Miami as a sushi staple. Located in Wynwood, it features creative sushi and sashimi made with fish flown in daily from the Tsukiji market. Those who want to try more can opt for six- to ten-course tasting menus (prices fluctuate regularly)." - Olee Fowler
"Noted for offering to-go boxes that 'look like art,' making its takeout feel special and elevated for a more intimate at-home Valentine’s evening. Mention and praise by Mona Holmes, editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest." - Mona Holmes
