Uchiko is Uchi's sister location, but make that Uchi's big sister. Expect the same impeccable service, but at this North Lamar location everything is bigger. Uchiko has a big lounge and bar area, a big dining room that looks out into the sprawling open kitchen equipped with a big, long sushi bar area with front row seats to Executive Chef Paul Qui and his uber-talented team. A big, private dining room anchors the back space. An added bonus they take reservations, no more four hour wait times to experience enticing culinary creations that are actually worth the wait. The menu is a creation of Tyson Cole's chef de cuisine, Paul Qui. Expect to find the same innovative techniques, but the menu items here are different. Don't miss the Bacon Sen, a berkshire pork belly or the Suzuki Yaki, a whole grilled loup de mer. Drink selection here are key with stunning cocktail creations including a sparkling wine concoction made with with grilled thyme and a cured lemon and the standout wine list including the Meyer Chardonnay.
