" Genji is like a taste of Japan right here! Everything I ordered felt authentic, and the atmosphere is vibrant. I absolutely loved their pork katsu curry and the friendly staff made everything better. Karaoke added a great twist to our dinner! Just be prepared for a bustling environment as it gets quite busy, but it's totally worth the visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an amazing night out at Genji. The ambiance was lively during karaoke, and the food was simply fantastic! The teriyaki chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the sushi rolls tasted incredibly fresh. The service was generally attentive, and even though the place was busy, my waiter made sure to check on us frequently. I highly recommend checking this spot out for a fun night with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently had a disastrous experience at Genji. There was an awful smell upon entry that made it hard to enjoy the food, which was overpriced for the quality. My order took an unusually long time to arrive, and when it did, the ramen noodles were soggy and the broth lacked depth. The service was inattentive, which added to my disappointment. I really wanted to like it, but I don't plan on coming back. Such a letdown. " (*Curated Review*)

" Genji is a solid spot if you’re in the mood for karaoke and good food! Though the atmosphere can get pretty loud, the food is truly authentic, especially the okonomiyaki and gyoza which remind me of Japan. The drink specials are also great for gathering with friends and the service is usually prompt if you're not in a big group. I usually enjoy my time here, but some nights can be hit or miss depending on the crowd. " (*Curated Review*)

" Genji has been a regular spot for me over the years. What keeps me coming back is their authentic Japanese food that truly hits home! The beef yakiniku is hands down the best I've had, rivaling what I've tasted back in Japan. Plus, the pints of Sapporo go perfectly with every dish. The only downside is that it can get noisy during karaoke nights. However, it’s always worth it for the quality of food and fun atmosphere. Customer service has always been great too! Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm quite picky about Japanese food, and I have to say Genji has exceeded my expectations! The ramen was rich, and I could tell they used good quality ingredients. My only wish is for them to improve their service speed, as I felt a bit neglected during my visit. Still, I enjoyed my meal and came away satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Genji has been a staple in my dining experiences! No matter what I order, I'm always satisfied. My love for their gyoza can't be overstated - they're simply the best in town! The only issue I've had is the occasional service lapse during busy hours, but the food makes up for it. Kudos to the karaoke that makes it even more lively and fun every time I go!
