Right as we walked in, I shoulda listened to the red flags. We were second waiting in line and it took a while for us to be seated. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There weren't a lot of clean tables, we were offered to sit at the bar or wait 20 minutes for a clean table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] First of all, why don't they have more tables and why don't they have staff bussing? Ok. Fine. Whatever. The bar it is. I noticed there were lots of plates on the belt. I had my first plate which was the squid. I didn't expect it to be lukewarm and slimy. I didn't even finish the other piece in fear of being food poisoned. Even their yakult was warm. I proceeded to take another plate which was overpriced and greasy. Most of the plates were overpriced I my opinion. Also, it took a while for our waters to be filled up..so long that my kid was sucking on ice cubes -down to the last drop. There were too many overpriced plates on the belt with small portions. The food was terrible. There were too many cooks cooking and not enough people eating. For about 8-9 plates, it was almost $50. Never again. Everything was less than stellar - service, food,

Sushi conveyor belt

It has been a while, but we came he for my sushi craving and it was a little late to go anywhere else. I'm glad that we came here because I enjoyed their garlic seared salmon, plain udon, geso karaage, and the mentai seared salmon roll. You don't see the picture of the mentai seared salmon roll in my photos. I forgot to take that photo, like I almost forgot about the California roll! One of the things I like about going to sushi spots is the wasabi! The wasabi here, actually burns your nose, which is a plus! The service here is good, everyone is polite and busy! [[HIGHLIGHT]]As for the ambiance, I really like the conveyor belt, and that they are providing QR scan to order, as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The sushi comes out much quicker that way, instead of waiting for it to come around the belt. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a plus that they have booths available for customers, too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Even though the food here is a little more pricey, I like coming here for some sushi and udon!

top to bottom: samurai roll, spicy tuna roll, veggie roll & salmon nigiri (1 order of nigiri includes 2 pieces). cost: 21.41$

i thought i had left a review already... i've been going to genki for a long time now. in the past 10 years it was SO good, so NOT good... and i thiiiink... it is back to good! i recently popped in and was happy to see a few familiar faces, even happier to have some of the best sushi at genki in a long time. they recently launched mobile ordering when seated but still working through it - not everything has been posted on it so you may need to order through staff still and you can't pay mobile either. the staff is so helpful and nice. the onion nigiri is my #1, followed by my classic flaming hot roll. those 2 rolls are the ONLY REASON i come back here! nowhere else makes anything as tasty. order it (don't get it off the belt) and try for yourself. the onion nigiri includes mayo on salmon nigiri. the flaming hot is spicy mayo, tempura flakes, jalapeño, cream cheese and salmon.

The food (Sushi) was yummy. The service was good. The sushi come on a rotating conveyor belt and you grab what you like to eat.

Probably one of the most expensive conveyor belt sushi places I've been. Salmon nigiri is $4.85 a plate. It's delicious, yes, but too expensive for me to visit often. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were only 3 tables full including mine and I'm guessing it's because of the cost.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bathroom was clean but covered in graffiti ( not the cool kind either).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Even the soda is expensive at $3.15

Conveyer belt
Heather Z.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Conveyer belt sushi was so fun![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I don't think there are any booths so the conveyer belt runs through everyone in the restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Lots of selection, and plates are color coded. Sushi was good and had solid selection.

Brian O.

Pretty good sushi, service was ok. To be fair everything was self serve, but the staff did good by checking up on us and as well made sure if we were liking everything. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall great atmosphere and a pretty cool experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Salmon Nigiri
Philip P.

I'm honestly surprised this conveyor belt sushi restaurant is alive and kicking still. It even outlived Sushiland! My first time at Genki was in Factoria and I was never impressed with their spam and imitation crab stick nigiri. I guess this is good for people that don't want to try raw fish and still want that sushi experience. But for me, this is going to sound super pretentious, this ain't real sushi in my eyes. I mean, yes they do have salmon, tuna, and all that good stuff, but when you only see just the cooked stuff on the belt, I'm going to judge. This Renton location is better though because they do actually put out the raw stuff on the belt. So that's good. I don't know if they use a machine to shape the rice for the nigiri, but they be thick! If you like rice a lot, this is great for you. But this is too much rice for my comfort on a nigiri. I honestly had like 3 or 4 plates before I got full. And normally I would get 8 on average! So that says a lot. And I saw another customer just straight up not eat the rice and created a giant pile! This place isn't for me. I've been too scarred by my first time experience at a Genki. The vibe doesn't feel right and in my opinion, there are better sushi restaurants and also sushi conveyor belt places elsewhere. Don't let me stop you from coming here if it's still your jam. Enjoy what you enjoy!

We like to try places in the Renton area because it's the halfway point between our homes. This week we went to Mori Sushi in the Renton Landing. Immediately upon walking in I felt the interior to be very comfortable, welcoming and tasteful. Our server was terrific. Very helpful since my friend isn't so familiar with sushi. He ordered a specialty roll, a Hot Dream, which he really enjoyed. I was concerned that there would not be enough food for him but it was the perfect amount. I had the Chirashi bowl--high quality ingredients. We both agreed that this is a restaurant we would return to and that is my highest rating!

Aesthetics were on point, plating was decent. They are a japanese sushi place (sibling restaurant…read moreto Aji Sushi in Newcastle, from what I heard), with a couple korean dishes on the menu as well. Service was great at first, though they didnt check in if we wanted to order more (we had gotten a few small plates to start but when we wanted more we couldnt find anyone and no one checked in). But towards closing they were pretty pushy about us finishing up and leaving (and verbally told us so) which I'm not used to experiencing (we weren't the only ones that were there late and hadnt been there too long).. and I'm not usually at restaurants til close (this was just a long overdue catchup) so it was kind of irritating that they were so pushy about it. We had gotten off work late and made plans but couldn't find many places open late, so we had to make do with the times available (everything pretty much closed by 830 or 9p), so it was a really rushed dinner and felt like that when they rushed us midway to hurry up. Otherwise, other than some rolls seeming a tad expensive, they were pretty good. Some were better than others, we tried about four of them. The fave dish though was the ika geso (fried squid) appetizer, the sauce was bomb. Would come back.

A triumph itself in Renton, Triumph Valley has boasted versatility throughout the years since it's…read moreopening. From ramen, to hot pot, large parties and of course a traditional menu. But for those in the know, Triumph Valley is really known for their dim sum menu! Off the beaten path, you have to take State Highway 167, as its just south of the large IKEA store. But definitely a culinary landmark if you are a constant diner of Chinese cuisine, and dim sum afficianado. There are only three dim sum, or dumpling lunch providers in or around the City of Renton (technically two). This is one of them, and if you are not early, it can get really crowded, especially on weekends. But the staff bravely soldiers-on with their dilligent service. The restaurant's ambiance takes advantage of its interior with strategic lighting in their dining hall. Very utilitarian, while trying to ensure a little bit of style. They also modernize the experience with electronic waiting and ordering system on portable touch screens. It actually helps the service. No paper. As for me, my focus is on the dim sum. All of my favorites are there. And, as diner of one, it was hard not to want to order everything. So, I ordered the "basics" of a dim sum lunch. One order of Shiu Mai, one order of Har Gow, and one order steamed BBQ Pork. It was pretty much all you need along with an order of tea, as well as a Diet Coke to wash it all down. There were other traditional dim sum selections, but I knew my tummy (and wallet) wouldn't absorb it all - as much as I would have liked. Steamed beancurd sheets, beef meatballs, steamed sticky rice in banana leaves... chicken feet, it was all there. The best way is to make a plan, and invite lots of freinds to make sure you can try EVERYTHING! Yes, there are other menu items, like I said, but for Dim Sum dining in Renton, this is the place!!!! See you at Triumph Valley.

However, we arrived just before 10p on a Monday night and the line was down the street. We waited an hour and ended up not getting in due to seating ending at 10:45p. The hostess would check in periodically, and up to the last 15 mins said we had a 50/50 shot of getting seated. The alternative was to get take-out. There were a couple other groups also in the same boat. Overall, the wait time after submitting our take-out order was around 15 mins for 2 ramen. We ordered the classic ramen, extra spicy, and I added an egg to mine. On the card you use to select your order, you can choose the type of noodle, richness of broth, spice level, add-ins, and beverages. There is a separate vegan menu with lots of options to choose from. The ramen was delicious. The broth was rich and full of flavor and the noodles were cooked just right. The meat was tender and egg was perfectly jammy. I get the hype, but I wouldn't go after 9p again for my own sanity and time.

We had a reservation for 2:00 PM, yet we weren't seated until 2:24 PM. I'm not sure what the purpose of making a reservation is if guests still have to wait that long. When you're planning a celebration or trying to stay on schedule, reservations should be honored as closely as possible. It was also a weekday during non-peak dining hours and I've personally never let a reservation wait more than 5-10 minutes if they called ahead. After we were finally seated, it took about 10 minutes before anyone greeted our table. A booth that was seated after us received water first, while we were completely overlooked. I eventually had to ask for water, and our server even mumbled, "Oh shoot," which made it seem like he realized he had forgotten about us. It wasn't the best first impression. The food itself was amazing, and we were there celebrating a friend's birthday, so I was glad the meal was enjoyable. However, the service and long wait overshadowed the experience. With better organization and more attentive service, this could have easily been a much better visit.

Other places will charge extra for the large size, or up charge for extra broth/noodles. Here, they give you a large portion upfront. Amazing. Also, you don't have to add hoisin or anything - broth comes with the perfect flavor already. You can add other toppings to your liking. My husband ordered (to my surprise) chicken noodle soup. He is normally a spicy curry type person, and I was very skeptical about his choice. Well, this is not your average chicken noodle soup. If anything, this is the furthest thing from it, in the best way. The noodles are thick, soft and chewy. They slightly remind me of mochi, although they're not sweet. The broth is also subtle, flavorful and a different taste profile from the pho. Everyone enjoyed this dish, especially my little toddler. The sausage was very flavorful, moist, and paired nicely with the sauce (which was slightly spicy). And, the pork belly was the perfect brown color, soft, moist, and decadent. Forgot to take a photo though - too busy digging into the food. We are so glad to discover such a good restaurant!! Vibe is pretty relaxed. Staff was very quick and efficient.

The long bean salad was also pretty good; it tasted and smelled just as how a good papaya salad should. We enjoyed our food, the only problem was we didn't get any service after we received our food.

We had been done for about 15 min, just sitting and talking, waiting for him to come by. I kept picking at my food while I was waiting, even though I was full already. Finally, my cousin went up to him to ask for boxes. Prices are pretty decent. Maybe I'll come back for takeout.

Service was solid overall staff was attentive despite how busy it was but they did miss our hamachi kama, which was a bit of a letdown. A couple things to note: this place is cash only, and it gets very busy, so expect a bit of a wait. That said, the vibe is nice, and the design of the space is something I actually liked. Would I come back? Probably for sashimi and appetizers but I might skip the rolls next time.
