Genji's is the go to spot for Japanese bar food and karaoke! I've been coming here for years ever…read moresince my early college days, but for some reason I'm just now remembering to write a review. Nonetheless, you're guaranteed to have a great time here with friends. Walking in, I'm not gonna lie, this isn't the nicest looking place. There's a certain old school feel with mismatched chairs, a variety of tables, and some booths that can use a little TLC. The dated, mismatched aesthetic is part of the vibe though honestly so don't let that stop you from having a good time. There's a big open area for karaoke with those sitting around you, and then smaller private rooms if you want it just for your own group. Service wise, Genji's is honestly solid. They have bottle service available where you'll get your liquor of choice, shot cups, chasers/mixers, ice, and plenty of cups. Don't skip out on the food here either. The beef tongue, French fries, chicken karaage, omurice, and cheesecake are must try items! Overall, come to Genji's for a great time, they've been here for years for a reason!

My coworkers and I came here for an after dinner and private karaoke room after a long day at work…read more It was my first time having karaoke. It was quite interesting. We had to download an app and it will send whatever music you wanted to sing to the TV. They also had a covering on the mics. Sadly one of our mics wasn't working. There's also a camera in the room in case something happens. I liked how we can turn on a light to signal a staff member that we need some assistance. We ordered a variety of snacks . All the fries stuff was evenly coated, and well done. The noodles were more like food fillers. I would skip the takoyaki next time. The room definitely gives an 80s vibe and a bit dingy. You can tell that this place has been here for a long time. If you're not into karaoke, they do have a main dining area. There's free parking out front .

We enjoyed a scallop carpaccio as well as their hamachi carpaccio and both were delicate and delicious! Great job chef! Also basic easy stuff like edamame, agedashi tofu and miso soup and one of their rolls. I believe the roll was an orange blossom.... Nice flavors and fish. Maybe a little too cold but yummy!!! I could have kept on eating but my guest was satiated so we called it. I would go back for sure.

They let us in early so we didn't have to stand out in the cold. The restaurant is small and quiet, with the sushi bar in the middle, where it's easy to see everything is made. We opted for the sashimi special, the takoyaki, the 4 season roll, and the gyu suji. The sashimi special was delicious, great cuts, nice and tender. The 4 season roll was also great, with good cuts of fish, not too fishy. The takoyaki was perfectly crispy with a good filling and just the right amount of octopus. We accidentally let the gyu suji sit out too long so it got cold and gelatinous, but they were super nice about reheating it for us. It ended up not being for me, beef tendon is just a bit too cartilaginous for me. Overall, a great experience! Will definitely need to be back!

Had their Valentine's Day omakase and loved the whole experience…read more - Omakase is in a separate, clean, intimate room from the regular dining area - Escorted to our seats + warm hand towel to start - Servers were very attentive - Chef was locked in, super cool watching everything being prepared right in front of us Favorite bites: - Cherry stone clam soup (clay pot) - Don't know how, but the clams were in the shape of fish & were big, broth was super flavorful. 9/10 - Hon maguro - First piece and they did NOT skimp on the fish. Lightly dressed, amazing texture. 9/10 - Uni - Very high quality, no weird aftertaste, super vibrant. 9.5/10 - Wagyu sushi - Melted in my mouth. So rich and tender. 10/10 - Fatty tuna - STAR of the show. Literally melts, would order a whole plate of this if I could. 10/10 - Monaka (pastry w/ red bean, mochi, and matcha cream) - Not too sweet, perfect texture combo to end the meal. 10/10 Overall: such a well-executed omakase with high-quality fish and great service. Definitely a special occasion spot

She's awesome and keeps everybody on top of their task. Often young employees tend to slack off and get caught up in conversations amongst each other. It's nice to see her politely make sure everyone is staying focused.

Overall the flavor and atmosphere was good! However compared to similar barbecue places, it would…read morehave to default to preference because in my opinion there's a lot of more affordable places in Houston. Inside were tables with grills spread between 4 people of seating. There were both booths and tables. Everything was wooden and Japanese aesthetic inspired. You can control the grill flame with the knob next to your table, and it's completely self-serve they give you a couple tongs but otherwise you're all good to go. We ordered the meat lovers platter for 2 and it was more than enough food for 2 people. It came with rice, miso soup, a chicken, short rib, beef, edamame and a salad. This was a solid deal for 2 ($72 per person and $36 each). For two this price is reasonable, and more than enough food. Not included in this price, but offered at the restaurant are various options of soju, Sapporo beer and lychee cocktails. However, my only issue was that the other half of our party wanted to do AYCE. The AYCE starts at $45 and then goes up to $80. You have 90 minutes to eat this and they put up a wall between you and your party. For the cuts and meat, i doubt you'll get your money's worth unless you're willing to eat a lot,. This issue too is that the structure of the restaurant doesn't have a few hoods like other barbecue places. So it gets very hot inside as well as the smell of barbecue gets all over you. The parking situation is fine and there's probably around 50 people worth of seating inside.
