Founded by James Beard Award winning chef Tyson Cole, Uchi means “home” in Japanese, and that spirit of warmth and connection is what we're built on. As a young sushi chef, Tyson Cole fell in love with the magic of the sushi bar: the intimacy, the conversation, and the collaboration with guests that turned every bite into something unforgettable.
We’ve designed Uchi to bring that feeling to the entire restaurant. We craft every detail, menu, pacing, and service to be as personal and engaging as a seat at the bar, blending Japanese tradition with modern creativity.
In the heart of West Hollywood, Uchi brings its signature style to LA’s culinary forefront. From inventive omakase to expressive sushi artistry, Chef Tyson Cole’s West Coast outpost redefines what sushi in Los Angeles can be, unforgettable, elevated, and uniquely Uchi.

read more about Stephen Billings Landscape ArchitectureStephen Billings Landscape Architecture is a design practice based in Venice, California. We strive to enhance the experiential qualities of each site and project through investigations of program, context and materiality. Every site is seen as a dynamic palimpsest of cultural and geological histories waiting to be discovered.
The practice consists of a unique collection of design professionals trained in architecture, landscape architecture, art and environmental sciences. We consider landscape architecture as an art form that incorporates elements of cinema, fashion, art and music combined with stewardship of the land and the craft of building.
