Uchida Eatery, located at 633 Courtney St, Victoria, BC, is a true hidden gem celebrated for its authentic Japanese cuisine. Customers consistently rave about the outstanding quality of the sushi, often claiming it rivals that found in Japan. Reviewers like Nathaniel describe the fish and miso as incredibly fresh, noting the meticulous preparation that ensures each dish is crafted to perfection.

Hidden gem in Victoria. Had the best sushi outside of Japan at Uchida. The miso and fish are super fresh, and great care is taken preparing each item. If I lived here I'd be eating here at least once or twice a week!

Delicious fresh sushi! Quality over quantity. Authentic cozy restaurant. Must try and worth the detour for its very limited working days/hours. Only open Wed to Sat, 11am to 2pm. Meals made with extreme care for perfection. Thank you!

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!

Cozy (7 tables) traditional Japanese eatery. It's not fast food, each dish prepared directly by the owner/chef. Menu changes so check their website. Only open for lunch Wed-Sat.

This place is amazing! Like something you’d find tucked away on a side street in Tokyo with a lineup out the door. The food is exceptionally flavorful and the presentation is beautiful. Treat yourself to something special and try it out!

Beautiful little locally owned restaurant. There was only one person serving and cooking when I came, even then he did an amazing job with the food and it didn't take too long. Fresh Mackarel, warm and hearty Miso soup and a nice hot green tea. Would come back again and try more!

We went there for lunch 2 days in a row because we loved it so much. Items sell out fast so if you're *really* interested to eat here, I suggest you arrive within an 1-2 hours of opening. The fish was fresh and prepared really well, I recommend the assorted sashimi don. I will miss Uchida very much now that I'm back on the mainland
