" Visited Genki for lunch recently and was impressed by the aesthetics and ambiance. The staff was friendly, and I enjoyed their recommendations. I tried the curry chicken katsu, which was decent, but I wasn't blown away. The prices are a bit steep for what I got, but overall a solid experience. I would consider returning to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic izakaya experience! The attention to detail in both food and atmosphere is commendable. We especially loved the creative cocktails and the raw fish offerings were top-notch. Even the dessert, which was a matcha cake, capped off our meal perfectly. It's a bit on the pricier side, but the quality of the food made it worthwhile. Can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Genki Izakaya has quickly become one of my favorite spots. Bringing my family here for dinner last week was a delight! The sushi rolls looked amazing, and they tasted even better—super fresh! My kids loved the chicken karaage, crispy and tender. The place does get busy, so I advise making a reservation ahead of time. I will definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great time at Genki! The recipes seem authentic, and the ingredients tasted fresh. I tried the yakitori platter and was impressed with the variety. The service was attentive, which really made the experience better. The ambiance is modern yet comfortable. I would return for sure, although I might try a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Genki with friends for dinner, and it was quite enjoyable. The assortment of dishes was impressive. We shared various appetizers, but the highlight was the wagyu steak that melted in my mouth. I found the prices to be on the higher side, but the quality justified it. I'd definitely encourage others to experience it as well! " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance really makes this restaurant stand out! It feels like a true izakaya with its vibrant atmosphere. However, while the food is good, I felt that some dishes lacked a bit of authenticity. I would recommend the skewers as they were delicious! Overall, a good place to visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious authentic Japanese food! I loved every dish that we shared. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The tornado fried rice was particularly delightful and had a unique presentation. I will definitely be returning to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)
