Uchi

Uchi is a sophisticated Japanese restaurant that offers a delicate balance of elevated non‑traditional Japanese cuisine and impeccable service from James Beard Award‑winning Chef Tyson Cole. It is slated to open in the Commonwealth development of Plaza Midwood.

Their story

Uchi, which means “home” in Japanese, is built on a spirit of warmth and connection that reflects the magic James Beard Award winner Tyson Cole fell in love with as a young sushi chef: the intimacy, conversation, and collaboration that make every bite unforgettable. Every detail of Uchi, from the menu to the service, is crafted to make each guest feel welcomed, connected, and cared for, blending Japanese tradition with modern creativity so that dining here isn’t just a meal – it’s home.
