To enter Uni is to enter a hip Back Bay gathering spot. The intimacy. The reverence for the food. The library of sakes. The energy.
Ken Oringer opened Uni in 2002. The restaurant, located in the lounge of Clio, is a sashimi bar offering the freshest seafood from Tokyo’s Tskuji market as well as local fisherman and purveyors paired with a menu of unique cocktails.
Uni earned four stars from The Boston Herald and in 2008 was selected as “Best Sushi Bar” in Boston Magazine’s “Best of Boston” issue.
“****(out of four) Oringer displays the same imaginative flair…and attention to detail that has made Clio one of America’s best restaurants. With only 21 seats…it’s not going to be easy to get into. Neither is Nobu in New York. Clio is closer.” ~ Boston Herald
“Tucked inside the Eliot Hotel you will find Uni, a small gem of a sashimi bar…Uni is a truly wonderful experience that is worth the splurge.” ~ planeteye.com
“Go to the Eliot Hotel’s Uni and, unless you’ve spent time working as a fish buyer in Japan, you’re going to see things on the menu that you’ve never heard of, let alone eaten.” ~ Boston Phoenix, May 2008
