Uchi Miami, the Wynwood hot spot from award-winning hospitality group Hai Hospitality offering a nontraditional take on elevated Japanese cuisine, is introducing lunch service on Tuesday, September 2. This marks the first Uchi location to serve lunch, following successful launches at sister concepts Uchibā Austin and Uchiko Houston.
“Our guests have been asking for lunch for years, but we wanted to be sure we could deliver the same quality they’ve come to expect from dinner,” said Diana Martinez, chef de cuisine at Uchi Miami. “After seeing how well lunch was received at Uchibā and Uchiko in Texas, we decided to bring that same energy to Uchi Miami with midday exclusives—including a multicourse prix-fixe menu and a lunch-only omakase.”
Available daily from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., the new lunch service will reflect Uchi Miami’s signature innovation and seasonal ingredients. For example, the three-course Lunch Prix-Fixe ($25) features a choice of a signature starter, like the fan-favorite Hama Chili; a choice of an entrée, such as the all-new, lunch-only burger; and a seasonal sorbet to finish. The Uchi Lunch features a choice of main—Crispy Rice With Mushroom ($30), Karaage ($32), Walu Walu ($38) or Pork Katsu ($42)—paired with Gem Salad, Daily Temaki and two pieces of Chef’s Choice Nigiri.
Additional lunch specials include:
- Sushi Omakase ($45): A chef-curated tasting with Uchi Gem Salad, Temaki, Hama Chili, two pieces of chef’s choice nigiri and three pieces of chef’s choice sashimi.
- Chirashi Bowl ($28): A vibrant medley of tuna, salmon, yellowtail, avocado, green onion, cucumber and sushi rice.
- Dessert Add-On: Any lunch special can be elevated with a daily dessert for just $5, like the popular Fried Milk Sundae. Guests can also take home a pint to-go.
- Drink Specials: Available daily, guests can enjoy $5 rotating drink specials during lunch hours.
The lunch menu will also feature a selection of Uchi’s signature dishes that guests have come to know and love, including hot and cool tastings, sushi, nigiri, sashimi, makimono, yasaimono and more. Guests can enjoy lunch at Uchi Miami and also order a la carte items and Sushi Boxes to-go via DoorDash and curbside pickup.
Uchi is located at 252 NW 25th St. Guests can make lunch reservations through SevenRooms or by calling the restaurant directly at 305.995.0915. For additional information, please visit uchi.uchirestaurants.com/miami and stay up to date with events and programming on Instagram.
