Genki Ya - Brookline

I’m not sure if this waitress has had a bad day or what but I came in the afternoon to have a meal and all I saw this waitress do was besides serving our food, she suddenly argued with a staff (or manager it seems). I’m not sure what they were arguing about as it was in Chinese but it’s not right for her to yell at him. Then she suddenly gone into a rant talking to the sushi chefs. I don’t usually mind peoples business but that was worth reviewing about as it’s not how you treat your staff. I bet she’ll do the same with the customers.

I live in Houston, TX, But every time I visit my parents in Boston, I always insist on going to Genki-Ya at least once. They have a very extensive maki roll menu, especially for vegetarians!!!!! Excellent sushi spot for vegetarians. Also extremely reasonably priced, and great lunch specials!!!

Genki Ya? Genki- No! A cautionary tale! Genki Ya Brookline was one of my favorite places to get sushi. Tonight, a group of us went there for dinner. The nigiri plates smelled old, smelled like bad fish, as did the specialty rolls! After a couple of bites I was completely grossed out. I always keep a pack of Cipro at home for emergencies. It will come in handy tonight! What a shame! I’ll never go there again!

A simple yet solid everyday to casual date sushi place. For a good price, you can enjoy a fairly decent meal with sashimi (premium raw fish) and mouth-watering specialty rolls. The environment is relaxing yet still proper, and the hostess is personable yet attentive. Their Volcano Roll has become my boyfriend’s favorite dish here for its giant serving size, variety of ingredients, and deliciousness. I vote this place for a weekday/Friday dinner with an intimate, peaceful dinner with your close friends/loved ones.

Good food at a very affordable price! Especially the special lunch!
