Bringing the Sushi Bar Home

Executive Pastry Chef Ariana Quant, known for her playful and imaginative desserts, spearheaded this new “at-home” iteration. “From the moment we started offering to-go in 2020, we imagined ways to elevate the ‘at-home’ experience to reflect our passion for surprising our guests with thoughtful presentation and a truly engaging experience,” said Quant.

Continuing the Uchi Experience

Though the limited-time Sushi Box was a special event, Uchi continues to offer an exceptional dining experience both in-house and for take-out. You can still indulge in their nontraditional Japanese cuisine with a variety of options available for pick-up or delivery. Their regular menu features a blend of classic and innovative dishes, ensuring there’s always something new and exciting to try.
