Uchida Eatery - Victoria, British Columbia

My lunch here was one of the greatest meals I have ever eaten. The restaurant is open for lunch only and the decor reflects comfort not opulence. Amazing experience. Ridiculously cheap for the quality.

This place is a cozy and authentic Japanese restaurant. Their sashimi, especially the mackerel, was very fresh. The rice was cooked perfectly, with the ideal texture and taste, and even the eggs were great. While I thought the salmon sashimi was a bit too thin, it was still excellent. The ... sashimi already had some seasoning sauce, so if you prefer to dip it yourself, I would ask for it separately. I look forward to trying other dishes in the future. Read more

Great service, great vibe, and probably the best donburi I've ever had. The grilled mackarel was also amazing. Highly recommend.

This Japanese spot is a hidden gem. It is open during lunch only. I ordered my food in advance the night before. There is limited tables available (I believe 3?). When I arrived to pickup my order, there was one unoccupied table so they accommodated my ... order for dine-in instead of take-out. My assorted sashimi don was well-preserved and tasty. I will come back again! Read more

We happened upon this take out only Japanese eatery by happenstance while walking to the bug zoo - the classic wood sign and hole in the wall atmosphere immediately drew our attention and I placed online orders for our food. We stopped by a little before our pickup time and ... saw the chef painstakingly preparing each of our dishes with attention to detail. We were amazed by how beautiful the presentation was when we opened up our take out containers and the taste was incredible. The fresh fish melted in our mouths and was on par with market fresh sashimi in Japan. The price was extremely reasonable for the quality. Would love to come back and support this amazing restaurant again next time we're in Victoria! Read more
