It was our first time at this restaurant. The restaurant offers various asian dishes. We settled on bento boxes, the beef and shrimp tempura and salmon teriyaki and shrimp tempura dinners, sharing a spider roll and a dragon roll. The beef was tender and flavorful. The salmon teriyaki was fine. Less impressive was the hard, deep fried salmon dumplings that come with the bento. The rolls were fresh, well prepared and presented. The server was attentive and welcoming, bringing more wasabi when asked and filling water glasses. We didn't feel rushed to finish our meal. The dining room was festive and can be loud. Will be returning to try other entrees. read more

If you're looking to get a bento box here definitely look elsewhere! I paid $26 for two Items: Tempura and Beef Teriyaki. I got two small pieces of lackluster shrimp tempura that resembles the frozen ones from Costco. The beef was of the lowest quality , it had sauce on it but I'm pretty it wasn't teriyaki. They also gave a really small amount of rice too. I am so disappointed at this restaurant. Other sushi restaurants around the area charge $20-22 for 3 items and they give at least 8 pieces of tempura and generous amount of rice & salad in comparison to this place. read more

Live in Castro Valley about 10 yrs. Love their Japanese style food and Chinese Style food. My family comes in for Chinese and I love sushi. This is the restaurant that can actually please our tummy on the variety of food we get to eat. Service is always excellent. Ambiance can be very noisy at times. It is a great place to relax to have an after hour drink and watch some sports on TV. Now recently they added Vietnamese style food. 3 country in one. Thumbs up for us. Always will recommend to friends and family. read more

This place is a prime example of "even though the average ratings are lower, you should still eat there." I don't know why this place doesn't have more stars. The food and service were fantastic!! Our server was an absolute gem. She was so sweet, attentive, and always made sure we had everything we needed. The other employees were also very helpful and also checked on us, even though we weren't technically their table. It seemed like everyone cared about every customer. The food was delicious. We ordered the lion king, fried California, Philadelphia roll, and the spider roll. Each one was fresh and flavorful. They don't skimp on the portions either! The roll sizes were big and so filling. They are all also reasonably priced, especially for the size and quality. I've been to other places where the prices are 7-8 dollars more, but the rolls are have the size and not as tasty. I hadn't even left the table and I was already thinking of when I could come back to try more rolls and may be get some appetizers. read more

Never again! We've eaten here before, but never have we been ignored. My family and I came in on Christmas Day right after they opened for dinner. There were other guests seated and eating dinner, so we weren't the first ones. The appetizers were delivered right away. Then we waited for our food as more customers came in. We waited and still more customers came in. We continued to wait and saw other customers were served their food, even those who arrived after us. It was 45 minutes until finally someone came and asked how we were doing. 45 minutes! She told us our food was coming but gave no time estimate. We got up and walked out. She apologized, but at that point it was too late. read more

Genghix - Unexpected protein ... yuck!!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Castro Valley, California

I was there for a friend's birthday celebration Saturday June 8, 2024. I am giving only 2 stars because of my food that I ordered. I ordered the Bento Box. The teriyaki chicken had no sauce and was no flavor. It was bland. The best part of the box was the white rice and California rolls. Disappointed because it looked so good. I should have just ordered fried rice or chow mein instead. read more

i was asking myself why we almost never ever eat here.. So, tonight, we settled for Genghix food because it's close and my husband didn't feel like driving far for dinner take out. We live 5 mins away or even less from this place.. My husband got me wonton soup- IT WAS COLD.. and it has always been this way throughout the years of getting it. We got fried rice, garlic noodles, some chicken thai basil made of chicken breast (yuck), and garlic mushrooms that don't taste like mushrooms. Basically, everything is cold and nothing tasted good. the rice tasted really old. We were starving when we got it, when you're starving everything should taste good. I spat out the food that i put in my mouth. That wonton soup was cold as fuck. We get take out from a chinese resto in union city and when we get home it's still very hot.. and Genghix is less than a 5 min drive from our home. This is not real asian food. Whoever is cooking there do not understand anything about asian food. Waste of money! I wish I can return all the food. It's all going to trash. read more

Food just ok. Sushi ordinary some tough pieces wonton soup plain just wontons and bok choy. Not much flavor. Soft shell crab overcooked and a little fishy. Saba was great. Both tartares regular and ceviche poor. Weird flavor on the ceviche tuna no lime juice and regular tartare finely ground and too spicy. Honey walnut prawns excellent. Very hit n miss. Slow service took a while to order and longer to pay. Very very noisy. Understaffed. Would not go back. Do not recommend! read more

This place was awesome for our party of 12 on a Saturday night. Very nice ambiance and the food was good as well. I had never been here and was impressed. The waitress was nice and friendly too! All in all, an excellent Chinese restaurant. Sorry, I should have taken pictures but was consumed by my family (uncle, 7 cousins, brother and spouses). What a surprise find in Castro Valley. In the immortal words of The Terminator, I'll be back! Thanks Genghix. read more

I've been coming to this place all throughout my childhood & I will say their service is unmatched. On top of that, the food is consistently excellent--from Chinese food to Sushi & Thai! The options are limitless as there are vegetarian options (not sure about Vegan) but you can definitely ask the servers. The owner Chin is sweet & very family oriented. He always wants to ensure guest have a great time at their place. It's beautifully decorated, on point with the fusion basis of their cuisine. Simply amazing! BTW, order the mango mojito!! Shoutout to the bartenders! read more

Love this place! It's such a welcoming environment and the food is reasonable and good. Such a rarity these days in the Bay. Just walking into the location you feel as if you're stepping into a unique and nice establishment. Look at the outside facade and inside decor! We got the salmon teriyaki lunch special and the bento box also with salmon teriyaki lol. But all was good. It always is. Great for a nice weekday lunch or a special evening dinner. Can't go wrong. read more

My friend recommended we have dinner at one of his favorite sushi spots, so we met up at Genghix in Castro Valley. This was our Christmas get together, so in addition to eating, we caught up and opened presents. Service was perfect for our needs, as they left us alone enough to do our thing but took our order, refilled water, and cleared plates without us asking. The food came out really fast. I was impressed, as the bar and rest of the restaurant were pretty full. Our group ordered a wide variety of food including a tempura & teriyaki combo, side salads, garlic green beans, assorted rolls (Snow White, Dragon, Lion King, & Lion Queen) and salmon nigiri sushi. Everything was really good. I don't live nearby, but if you are in the East Bay, I would definitely recommend Genghix. read more

Genghix - Fried rice - Sushi Bars Near Me - Castro Valley, California

We had dinner yesterday at this restaurant (May 15, 2026) with some friends. The GOOD: The restaurant is nicely decorated and had great ambience. We were greeted and seated immediately. The drinks we ordered were ice cold served without delay. We ordered the Pokeman and crunchy chicken salad to begin with; these salads were delicious. For appetizers, we ordered the Super California and the Lion King rolls. These rolls were delicious. The BAD: The wives ordered a large beef pho and the guys ordered the Singapore Vermicelli. The dishes arrived hot. The soup base for the pho was way too SALTY! The vermicelli did not have much curry flavor and the typical "glass noodles" were substituted with thin egg noodles. The noodles had a gritty texture on the tongue suggesting the cook sprinkled curry spice on the noodles rather than dissolving the curry spice into an emulsion. The barbecue pork in the vermicelli was sliced too thick. The vermicelli dish was not too good. Finally the men's bathroom appeared to neat and clean. My recommendation is to stick with the sushi rolls at this restaurant because the other cuisines need some work from the kitchen staff!! read more

I eat here often. Lots of variety of dishes. I haven't tried their newly added Korean dishes. But Chinese and sushi are excellent.

Very nice owner, reasonable price for great Asian fusion food selection. At a convenience location.

I can't believe I have not written a review for my favorite sushi place in the East Bay... The team there is always great and welcoming and can often help me decide on what I want, overall the tartare with hamachi is great and filling, the ama ebi is fresh and sweet and the quail egg adds a creamy and rich texture. They have great cooked items too, they have wings that I like to switch up on, I love the kewpie like mayo with like a hint of garlic and the lamb chops are great! Chen, Steven and Kevin have all treated us well and consistently. read more

We decided to order takeout sushi and a chicken salad for dinner from Genghix tonight. The sushi was really fishy tasting and the chicken salad looked so disgusting when I opened the container, I couldn't bring myself to eat it. We've ordered takeout from here once before that was really good, but tonight definately wasn't their best representation. read more

Food was really good, the spider roll had lettuce in it which I really liked cause it gave it a little crunch. The fried rice and teriyaki chicken really good flavor. The portion was good enough to get full and take some home! Staff was friendly and checked on us a reasonable amount. Appreciated every time the lady came by wasn't when I was stuffing my face! Would definitely come back and would recommend to try! read more

Teriyaki chicken was awful. Met some friends for lunch. Service was good but food needs a lot of improvement.

Had the sushi rolls, they tasted fresh and I love the extensive menu on special rolls. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Even on a Friday night there was enough room to get a table with not a long wait. read more

Fun cool place! I am so picky when it comes to Asian restaurants and the food here is chefs kiss. We come often and everyone is able to find something they love from their vast menu. The owners are absolutely the sweetest. Don't hesitate to give this local gem a try. read more

The food is a little pricey when ordering online but the Teriyaki beef is wonderful. You get plenty of rice on the side and good portions of meat. It's very flavorful I might add. They use special containers to make sure the food is fresh when delivering. I know they are in Castro Valley but when ordered online from Grubhub the food was still hot. Worth a try if you want something different. read more

The other night I was at the castro market with my Husband and we were buying some groceries, we were hungry and decided to eat out but all the options at that location had a waitlist, the cashier that was checking us out overheard our conversation and I'm glad he did because he recommended us this place and we have been coming back over and over for date nights and with friends, we haven't tried a single roll that we didn't like, the service it's always great, everything taste fresh and isn't crazily overpriced. Never disappoints read more

Saturday lunch with family, seated upon arrival and menus provided. We ordered drinks while looking over the menu. Got a Sapporo beer, and the cold sake flight. The sakes were all good and fun to sample. We ordered the lunch special: broccoli shrimp, which came with salad and miso soup. We also had the Cantonese chicken chow fun (served with miso soup), and the San Francisco roll (fried salmon, cream cheese, avocado); which came with a complimentary miso soup as well (a nice surprise)! The shrimp in the broccoli shrimp lunch special were good-sized (although some of them weren't deveined). The chicken chow fun was plentiful and enough for leftovers. The sushi roll was well-made and filling. The sushi came with excellent tasting, pale ivory colored pickled ginger, (not the "pink" stuff). Our server was very attentive, prices reasonable and we enjoyed a nice meal; I would definitely come back. read more

Good food, good customer service depending on who it is.... But for the price we're paying for the food.. (not cheap) why are the women having to use the men's bathroom???? Bc the employees don't want to "open" the women's bathroom. The bathroom wasn't even clean! My 8yr old had to use the restroom. The women's was locked, I asked the waitress. She says "use the men's" It was disgusting & having to look at a urinal while going to the restroom & explaining to my daughter what that was.... & going back to eat afterwards. read more
