"Uchiko in Legacy West adds a little something more to the mix. In addition to sushi in an array of presentations, it offers oysters with a shiso mignonette and shiro creme fraiche, a stunning hearth-roasted lobster with tom kha, grilled scallops, and a whole branzino with a very Uchiko-style presentation and accoutrement. Inside, find Japanese-inspired decor across two stories, a sushi counter, and dining room seating." - Courtney E. Smith
"Uchi’s little sister restaurant in Plano is fun and spirited, adding some Texas smoke and fire to the elegant Japanese flavors. There’s a 10-course chef’s omakase, but we love the somakase, where your server will work within your budget and your preferences to create a meal of sashimi, rolls, and cold and hot tastings. If you’re going a la carte, the Hama Chili is a must, with yellowtail, ponzu, thai chili, and oranges, while The Hot Rock will momentarily make your table the center of attention as you sizzle and sear your own buttery wagyu slices." - erin booke

"While Uchiko has plenty of tasting menu options, this division of the Uchi army also serves up grilled dishes with an extra dash of Japan meets Texas. Absolutely get the fatty tuna, but don’t pass up the Rosewood center-cut sirloin, heart-roasted oysters or lobster, and the bone-in short rib with kimchi vinaigrette. The two-story restaurant is located at the Shops at Legacy Hall and, like all things Hai Hospitality, is designed with lots of wood features and modern light fixtures. Seats are available at the sushi counter as well as in the upstairs and downstairs dining rooms. Reservations are recommended and can be made through Seven Rooms." - Didi Paterno
