I’ve been to Genki several times throughout the years and under different ownership. The current incarnation is just OK. Went to an early dinner with some friends, so there were only two other tables being occupied. From the moment we sat down, we were rushed. Rushed to place our orders, then rushed to eat, with our plates being taken away while there was still food on them.
All for no apparent reason as, again, there were plenty of open tables. We were watched at close range by the staff, who pounced on our table when they thought we might be done, even though we weren’t. One waitress was kind, another was brusk, and yet another appeared to be a literal child. What is happening?
We just wanted to have a mellow, relaxing dinner while catching up with each other but that was impossible. I’ve never felt so hounded to eat and pay and get out of a restaurant like that before. Not bothering to return, which is a shame because the meal tasted really nice. However, Misaki in Woodrow has slightly better sushi and much better service.
As far as delivery: service is bad, just don’t bother with it. Gave them the benefit of the doubt and tried again with the same result of a 2+ hour wait, and sushi was inedible by the time it got to me.

Honestly wish I could give 5 stars because we’ve be loyal customers for over 6 years but tonight did nothing but piss me off. We ordered 6 rolls, sushi and soups and we were missing one roll which is fine no big deal it happens. But when I called they acted like I was scamming them for a $4.50 roll and told me I had to send pictures of the food for proof before sending me my missing roll. Kept putting me on hold because I told them we started eating because we were hungry so if I were to send a picture it wouldn’t be the full order since we started eating our dinner.
Needless to say , we will not be ordering from here anymore.

I loved the place. The food was very good. The quality-price ratio, great. We ordered quite a bit of sushi and some udon soup. All very good. When we ordered dessert (fried ice cream and fried cheesecake) we were also surprised as it was also amazing. The place was very nice. And the waitresses too. I totally recommend it.

I’ve eaten sushi all over the world but I can honestly say they have the best and the freshest sushi out there. Very friendly service. The owner is always there to make sure that everything is top of the line. I highly recommend this place!

First time I ordered from this place. I ordered the katsudon (pork cutlet, rice and egg) and it was absolutely terrible. The pork cutlet was mush and not crispy, egg was over cooked and burnt, like when using over heated oil and the rice was over cooked and mushy. Didn't look like something ordered from a restaurant. Nothing like a real Kasudon dish from Japan.

Overpriced, poor service, it's all about the $$$. Is that even Japanese owned place? The atmosphere reminds me cheap Chinese take out place.
