Gen is a popular restaurant that offers an excellent dining experience. With quick seating and generous portions, it's a great value for the price. The restaurant is suitable for families, as young children can enjoy their meal for free. The menu features a range of dishes, including sushi, ramen, and edamame, with the karage and omakase being standout favorites. The food and attention to detail are super high quality, and the price remains reasonable. The sake list is extensive, and the staff is incredibly nice, often adding thoughtful touches like a surprise can of sake with takeout orders. The restaurant's signature dishes include the uni shashimi and mango roll, while the agedashi tofu is a comforting treat on a cold winter night. A neighborhood staple since the early 2000s, Gen continues to delight both longtime regulars and first-time visitors with its fresh sushi, affordable omakase, and some of the best ramen in BK.
