(based on 1 user rating)  EDITOR REVIEW: BARTON SPRINGS DISTRICT. If you believe sushi can only be prepared properly by a Japanese chef, are you in for a surprise! Uchi's owner-chef, Tyson Cole, is as American as they come, although he did spend several years under the tutelage of Austin's master sushi chef, Takehiko "Smokey" Fuse. The food, particularly sushi, is colorful and artfully presented. Cole strives to make sushi approachable to the masses, so in addition to traditional varieties, you'll find cooked sushi and creative American versions designed to appeal to folks who don't like seafood. 
Tiny, inexpensive dishes fly, rapid-fire, out of chef Tyson Cole's kitchen, and they pack a big, Texas-size taste wallop. Try the Hot Rock appetizer: A sizzling, smooth river rock comes to you on a bed of sea salt. You take raw, incredibly tender Wagyu beef, sear it yourself on the rock to your favorite level of doneness, and wow--suddenly you have gorgeous mini-steaks. From the attentive staff to the charming cottage-like atmosphere, Uchi delivers an unforgettable meal. (from Southern Living) 10Best User Reviews
