As mentioned in another review, the sashimi is truly top notch. It’s not cheap but it’s certainly worth it! Truly an experience enjoying the sashimi here. The bento was ok, would definitely recommend you get the sashimi and maki rolls though!

Lovely neighbourhood spot. Everything was super fresh. We had a mix of things: udon, sushi, rolls, apps. All good. The spicy tuna roll was among the best I’ve had. Friendly, low key staff made it even better. It’s now on our list of regular spots when we’re in Ottawa.

I was surprised at how amazing the food is here, I hadn't heard of it before. This restaurant certainly deserves top marks. I'm a big fan of Sashimi, and the Sashimi I ordered at Genji is definitely the best I have had in Ottawa. I ordered the 16 piece Sashimi platter. It looked small in the picture, but the pieces were large and generously cut when my order arrived. The meat was fresh, very soft and full of flavor. This Sashimi is worlds different from what you get at a grocery store or a mall sushi place, this is what Sashimi should be like.Likewise, my wife also really enjoyed her order. She got the Rainbow Sushi plate (M8) and was also impressed by the quality and taste. There is so much variety on the menu that it is hard to choose what might be best for lunch, but that makes it fun to visit because of the number of options.One thing to note is that it can be quite busy around lunch time. You can expect to wait 30+ minutes to get your food.The restaurant has a comfortable atmosphere that I enjoyed. I Also liked the collection of plants at the front window.Overall a fun experience with surprisingly good food. I will definitely be returning to Genji restaurant soon.

Has a very nostalgic, home-cooked kind of atmosphere, not fancy but familiar. I ordered the bento dinner and was happy with it, you get a sizeable amount of classic Japanese comfort food (sushi, white rice, tempura, spring rolls, teriyaki chicken/beef) for a decent price. (With tip and drinks it was a little over $40 each.)The food was not amazing" but it was very comforting. That's how I would describe the whole experience.Our server was excellent

Good value for prices in terms of sushi. Nothing spectacular necessarily, but also does all the basics well. Services is good and attentive. You can deathly find better places to eat sushi but you’re also pay much more.

Prob the worst takeout I've had in Ottawa. The chicken breast was awful and very dry. Not worth $25 dollars. All the vegetables underneath were frozen. The only edible thing to eat was the plain white rice. Never ordering again.

Quaint little spot! Fantastic food and attentive service. Decor is a little dated and could be tidied up a bit.

Delicious, fresh and prepared with care. Great service too (very friendly, respectful and attentive). Second experience there, cannot go anywhere else in Ottawa for sushi now. Genji management and staff - Good job, please keep it up!
