Uchi is one of my favorite restaurants in Denver. From the service to the atmosphere to the food—it’s perfection. You’ll need a reservation as they fill up quickly. If you don’t have one I recommend going a little before they open to wait in line for the sushi bar or first available. Yes, there will be a line when they open so don’t sleep on it! Also, their happy hour is a great deal. They have a lot of my go-to’s that I’ve listed on that menu. I’d say you can eat for half the price during happy hour. It can be pricey so expect to spend some $$. I’m sure your server will tell you but eat the nigiri upside down so you taste all the flavors.

COVID Update: Order online to-go for a fun date night in. They are still offering happy hour during those times too!
