About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Great for creative cocktails
Innovative

Serving inventive Japanese cuisine using the freshest seafood from Tokyo’s famed Tsukiji market and local New England fishermen, and borrowing influence from the streets of Tokyo, Shanghai, Singapore, Bangkok and Bangladesh, Uni is the evolution of Ken Oringer’s intimate sashimi bar of the same name, which expanded into the former Clio space in 2016. UNI is currently helmed by Executive Chef David Bazirgan.

From the OpenTable editors: Open since 2002, Back Bay’s Uni still turns out some of the city’s best seafood, much of it sourced from Tokyo’s famed Tsukiji market. Acclaimed chef Ken Oringer’s menu stars decadent dishes like the uni spoon—uni paired with caviar and a quail egg—in a luxe and lively space inside the Eliot Hotel that makes every meal feel like a special occasion.

Executive chef: Ken Oringer & David Bazirgan

The food was excellent. We loved the rolls and the sushi and Brussels sprouts. Would be great if they had more rolls. Server was also friendly and helpful.

What a great evening! Delicious food and we were guided by our wonderful server, Whitney! She explained the menu, helped us with choices and was at the ready with drinks. We were a table of 8 and she was perfect.

Uni hospitality was impeccable! The food service was quick, it was a weekday so factor that in! Food was delicious! Plating was top notch! Drinks were good, probably not as good as the price but good! The people were friendly and staff was knowledgeable! Would 100% go again

Our waiter touched my bare shoulder to inform me that my selected nigiri had run out. He referred to me by my first name. The experience felt very unprofessional. I will probably never come back again.
