Sushidc

Uchi, meaning “home” in Japanese, was founded by James Beard Award winning Chef Tyson Cole. Known for its nontraditional approach to Japanese cuisine, Uchi pairs refined technique with thoughtful hospitality. Guests can explore signature tastings, seasonal omakase, and a dining experience designed to surprise and delight.

In Washington, DC, Uchi offers a distinctive take on Japanese dining rooted in creativity and precision. The menu highlights innovative flavor combinations and carefully crafted sushi, all served with the warmth and attention to detail that define the Uchi experience.
