"This Austin export, known for its inventive dishes and seriously quality fish, has become a beloved part of Dallas’s sushi scene. The chef tastings, both vegetarian and omnivore-friendly, are worth a splurge. The vibe in here is sushi but make it modern and hip — the restaurant collaborates on monthly ramen features with local chefs in its upstairs area, while dishes like Madai Crudo with Japanese sea bream and Asian pears or Wagyu Tataki that turns a bite into a steak dinner are on the menu. Do not skip the famous fried milk dessert." - Courtney E. Smith, Rachel Pinn
"Founded by James Beard Award‑winning chef Tyson Cole out of Austin, Uchi offers non-traditional sushi often garnished in unusual and thrilling ways. Reserve a seat at the sushi bar, dining room, or patio. Custom local bites that can only be had at Uchi in Dallas, with cold or hot plates featuring fish, steak, oysters, and an omakase menu. Save room for dessert – the fried milk is legendary." - Courtney E. Smith
"There’s no dining experience quite like Uchi, whose mini-empire started in Austin and has expanded to Houston, LA, Denver, and Miami. They make some of the best sushi in Dallas, and you’ll find that everyone else in town agrees when you attempt to make a reservation. The menu is long—as in 80+ options, Infinite Jest long—but the hama chili, a couple of plates from their toyosu section, some nigiri and sashimi, and the fried milk dessert will set you up for a fantastic dinner. There’s also a solid Happy Hour menu if you’re not dining with a corporate card or a Dallas Maverick." - Lee Escobedo
