philos­ophy

Combining local seasonal ingre­di­ents with an infinite spec­trum of seafood from around the globe is the basis for Uchi's culi­nary philos­ophy. We invite our diners to explore their gastro­nomic bound­aries by pairing tradi­tional Japanese offer­ings with new and refreshing flavors and textures.

At Uchi, we serve the freshest product we can procure every day. We main­tain close rela­tion­ships with local farmers and we fly in seafood every day from both Fukuoka and Tsukiji markets in Japan. The essence of Japanese cuisine is the ingre­di­ents; at Uchi we prepare our dishes using inno­va­tive food combi­na­tions for the most unique dining expe­ri­ence in Houston.

sustain­ability

Uchi main­tains the following policy about the fish that we procure:

That we will use seafood prod­ucts that are sustain­able and respon­sibly fished when possible.

That we will work with our suppliers on sourcing fish prod­ucts that are trace­able and to obtain that infor­ma­tion when­ever possible.

Our goal at Uchi is to main­tain the quality, creativity and fresh­ness of the food we serve while striving to main­tain a respon­sible policy towards sustain­ability, not just with our fish, but with the entire menu.
