Ichimura at Uchū was a Japanese omakase restaurant located on Eldridge Street on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in New York City which received 2 Michelin Stars in 2019. The restaurant was a traditional, or edomae style, omakase with 21 courses for $300.[3] The restaurant was run by Tokyo-trained Eiji Ichimura [4] and was the front space within Bar Uchū, another 1 Michelin star restaurant; as well as at the previous closed 1-star Ichimura at Brushstroke. The chef afterwards moved to establish another restaurant Sushi Ichimura which has since also received 1 Michelin star. The restaurant, along with Uchu, closed in 2021 due to rent increases having maintained their 2-star status each year before closing.[2]
