    Tsunami Holic Roll
    Steven T.

    Trying another neighborhood spot that we always pass by. They have a decent size menu with lots of Japanese classics like sushi, curry and various noodle dishes. We started with one of their signature rolls that had a good amount of decent quality fish. The curry was also slight different than other places as it was not as thick and even had mushrooms. This made for a much milder curry flavor. Not bad, but definitely different. The soba was probably my favorite thing! The noodles had nice chewy texture and served with a refreshing dipping sauce and tempura to chase each bite. Not the best Japanese food I've had, but a decent neighborhood spot.

    Crazy roll (4.5/5)
    Katherine S.

    5 stars: this is a repeat spot TL;DR: consistent quality/timing every time we go. Great variety of options and good value. We have been here several times now and have always left very satisfied. The service is nice and fast. Is it the best quality sushi I have ever had? No. But it is solid, meets my expectations for this area, and is the same every visit. FOOD: All the sushi/sashimi combos give a great variety of fish and generous portions. ~Sashimi regular (5/5) ~Sashimi "omaskase" (5/5) - not really omakase, just a chef's choice of assortment ~Sushi "omaskase" (4.5/5) - same as above - docked some points as it comes with a cali roll ~Lion king roll (4.5/5) ~Kenny roll (4.5/5) ~Tsunami roll (4.5/5) ~Spicy samurai roll (3/5) ~Crazy roll (4.5/5) ~Soft shell crab tempura (3.5/5): Just okay ~Mussels (3.8/5): more korean style/gochujang flavor ~Calamari (3.5/5): uses a different type of squid than I was expecting from typical calamari This has been our go-to sushi place lately if we know what we're getting and don't want to be disappointed.

    Ordered dinner from here on Uber eats on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. I felt like the pricing was pretty fair and I really like how they packaged the sushi for delivery. The hot soup was packaged separately so it didn't affect the actual sushi. I'm not one that usually loves loaded rolls, but these were honestly so good.

    Really enjoyed this place for sushi! The rolls were fun and playful--lots of variety without feeling gimmicky--and they had a nice balance of flavors so nothing felt too heavy. The sashimi was impressively fresh, with a clean taste and good texture that makes you feel like they take care with their fish. Portion sizes were fair, and everything came out plated in a way that looked appetizing without being overly fussy. Service was friendly and the vibe of the restaurant felt casual but still nice enough for a dinner date or small group outing. Overall, a solid spot when you're craving sushi--fresh fish, creative rolls, and a good value for what you get. I'd definitely come back to try a few more of their specialty rolls!

    Katsu Curry
    Ashley J.

    Delicious! Came on a rainy day and had some warm and comforting food. Their curry was served HOT and flavorful. The dream boat roll was literally a dream and the salmon nigiri was huge! The staff was super nice. This place is really authentic and friendly.

    What a wonderful place. My son and I stopped in for lunch and greeted warmly and seated quickly. The shrimp tempura was delicious. We had four different rolls of sushi. The smoked cream cheese was fantastic and the salmon and tuna were fresh.

    Miso Ramen
    Jeff T.

    A good place to try if you're in the Fair Lakes Shopping Center. The ramen was just ok. The chicken teriyaki sauce seems a bit watered down. But the rolls were decent. I'd recommend going just for the sushi/rolls. Service was friendly. Small cozy spot for a nice dinner outing.

    We already ate a couple before taking pic...yummy tender chicken

    Came here tonight with my family and we tried various type of dishes. We enjoyed them all! They were well prepared, looked appetizing, and tasted good. The service was pleasant, courteous and prompt. They came by to refill our tea and water before they were completely empty. We appreciated the better quality chopsticks to eat our sushi with. It's also located in a convenient location too. Can get my shopping done then go for a meal or the other way around. Will be coming back! We had started eating off the plate before taking some of the pics, so sorry some of the dishes show less than how it was served.

The bad thing about Genki Izakaya is how crowded it can be. I'm not sure I would show up without reservations again. I've been there 3 times, the first time we didn't have a reservation and the hostess seemed very hesitant to add us to the wait list. She said the waitlist was very long. We decided not to wait. The second time we also didn't have a reservation and the hostess again seemed very hesitant to add us to the wait list. This time we did wait and were quoted 1.5 hours and it actually took about an hour. Not as bad as quoted but still busy! Third time we finally had a reservation and it still took us 20 mins to get seated as they did not have a table ready for us. To be honest the restaurant itself seems too small, they probably could be twice as big. The reason is the food at Genki Izakaya is in my opinion the best of the 3 Izakayas in the area. The Yakitori is good, hot and reasonably priced although I wish they would let you customize the $20 Yakitori Platter. I tried the A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Hot Stone and was surprised that they cook it for you instead of you cooking it yourself on the hot stone. The waiter overcooked 2 pieces of the Wagyu which is annoying when it is so expensive but overall it tasted great. I like their Tonkotsu Ramen, it broth tastes great and I've had ramen all over this area, in New York City, LA area, Tokyo and Kyoto. It isn't the best I've ever tasted but it is really good especially for this area. Once seated the service is good and the food comes out quickly and everything we've had has tasted great. The only problem is how crowded it can be because its so popular! Only bad thing for us is it isn't too close about a 45 min drive but worthwhile - definitely try it if you like Izakayas and Japanese food.

One of the highlights of the night was meeting the owner, Jason. We bonded over our shared Cantonese backgrounds and even got to meet his aunt, who was visiting from California and happened to be sitting next to us. It made the whole experience feel incredibly welcoming and personal. We ordered the Dynamite Roll, which was a solid choice with 8 generous pieces, and the Szechuan spicy wontons, which were juicy with just the right amount of heat. If you visit, definitely grab a seat at the bar. The bartenders are friendly, engaging, and really add to the experience. We were treated to a complimentary shot of Jäger with Jason and even got to sample their Lychee Pearl cocktail because the bartender had made an extra. The cocktails really stood out. Instead of masking everything with sugary juices, they use extracts and creative techniques to build balanced drinks that complement the flavors beautifully. Jason also mentioned that their cocktail specials change every month, so we already told him we'll be back regularly to see what new creations he comes up with.

It should be noted the menu is a little pricey but well worth it especially if you are celebrating a big occasion. We were very impressed with the menu offering and absolutely had to get the Kobe Beef because there are only a handful of places you can get Kobe beef served with this type of quality. They present the certificate of authenticity which really adds to the experience. The beef was cooked delicately with a light sear and served medium rare which goes the perfect buttery bite. Highly recommend. We also got the pork jowl and the kurobuta pork belly. Normally the pork belly is a bit but it was pretty average so I'll probably pass next time. The pork jowl was really tasty and had a nice bite. You can just eat meat if you want to get the full experience. We highly recommend the steamed egg as well as the tuna with taro chips for the perfect balanced meal. Can't say enough great things about this place... looking forward to coming again!
