This is my second time trying this restaurant, the first we had very poor service and did not return until a couple of months ago I decided to give it another try and see if they learned from there mistakes, and for me the did. The food was good I liked everything I tried my favorite was the short ribs, and spicy bbq pork. The place is nice and clean. read more

just had a great lunch all you can eat for 20. service and food quality was outstanding. definitly coming back...

The best sushi in all of Halifax. The arctic rolls are fantastic, the crab is must have as well as the teriyaki. And for dessert please do yourself a favour and get a steamed bun. read more

Genji Sushi - two pieces of sushi on a plate - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

The restaurant is beautifully decorated, quite a lovely vibe; however the ordering process is rather difficult and there isn't a whole lot of hospitality. I only enjoyed a few things I tried off of their menu, though the sushi is quite excellent. I just wish there was an option aside from all you can eat. read more

I'm over Genji. Their food is decent, don't get me wrong, but the customer service stills are incredibly lacking/ non-existent. I've never continuously had the issues I've had at Genji at any other All You Can Eat Sushi restaurant. I've never once gotten every item I've ordered; they just don't give you things. And, they always seem to give you something you didn't order, or something they've already given you. It's so strange and frustrating. I also feel very rushed, in a span of 2 minutes during my last visit the same server asked if I was ready to order - giving me no time to even look at the entire menu. If you want AYCE sushi in Dartmouth, go to Mizu instead. read more

I like Genji Sushi. I'm giving them a 4 out of 5. They have delicious sushi and it arrives quick. I love the fact that they send the rolls out one by one as their ready. I find them fast and efficient. The seating is comfortable however I personally appreciate booths as I find them more private. We ordered countless rolls all delicious! Con: they had sent me a $5 off coupon for Checking in with yelp. The waiter told me they can't honor it as it's a promo from 2014.... but maybe it should have been removed as we expected $5 off as per the advertisement. It's just good business principles to follow through... I have attached a picture to show the "discount" I could not use. All in all I would recommend them! read more

Genji Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

This was the worst Chinese restaurant I ever been in my life. First off, the waitress sat us down And she didn't introduce her self and how to order the food. Second, we have to look at to many papers to know what to order. Let me explain how the process work. You'll have a picture book and another pamphlet for you to write down how much food you want. Third of all, if you didn't like a certain dish or you're just full you would have to pay extra. Basically it's just the restaurant punishing you for wasting "on their product" Despite the fact that you personally already paid. Fourth of all, say if you had ordered a fountain drink. The positive side you have free refills but if you want to drink a different fountain drink you would have to pay a dollar extra to switch to a different drink. Fifth and last, for 18 to $20 for eating there you will feel totally disgusted because of the quality and the services. The rules there are ridiculous. And I'm also forgetting to mention that you can't order extra food Unless you eat all your food on your table like "a big boy or a girl." And then you turn around you don't eat it and then the restaurant punishes you read more

This is an odd choice for someone who doesn't like sushi. I really don't enjoy sushi but genji has such a huge variety of other options. They have Thai and Japanese options. They also have chicken and steak bites which is super enjoyable. My friends always enjoy the sushi - it comes out beautifully presented and they say it tastes delicious. They aren't as strict as other places. If you don't like it, just explain to them why you don't like it (for example, if the Thai is too spicy). The vegetables are very fresh and surprisingly full of flavour. The waitresses are very kind and attentive. The atmosphere is so much fun and casual. I love that you can see the guys making the sushi right there and al the seafood that they use it on display. Definitely a nice touch!! I love genji and I'll definitely be back! read more

I went today and it was really good, the rainbow roll was the perfect mix of creamy and very fresh ingredients, the tempura was hot crispy and the veggies had a nice crunch which I really like. Now. The service, the place is new and they are going to have some growing pains. They are a bit disorganized with the tables and not knowing who got what, a few times I saw them wandering around trying to figure out who got what. I had just put my order in and a five mins later they brought me my bill... Lol. I was like I think you have the wrong table as I have not yet gotten any food. Everyone was very polite and they did apologize when they made an error. All in all the food was good and the service will improve, I will go back :) I went again this afternoon and it was better, the food was great, they actually remembered me from the last time. The food cam much quicker. But I arrived at about 3 and I would saw half of the tables where not bussed yet. They only seemed to have one waitress working. But I enjoyed it. read more

3.5/5 So let's start with the food - it's why you're coming, after all. The selection is huge and includes stuff I haven't seen in many other restaurants in the city. It's not just limited to Japanese food either; there's some Chinese in there too (Hmmm... custard buns). The quality is, well, it`s not amazing. It`s not bad either. Overall, I`d say it`s just good with a few dishes falling on either end end of the spectrum. Service - bad service is usually why people don`t return to restaurants, right? That's not a concern here. Staff are very friendly and understanding. Very prompt (which I understand wasn't always the case). Dishes come fast and furious as they're prepared. Prices - I didn't love the price. Only a weekend, it's $24.99 so you'd better bring your appetite. Though, to be fair, if I got half as much food at any other sushi place as I did here, it'd be the same price. As for their "pay for what you don't eat" policy, it makes sense to me - don't be a glutton, people! You can order in several rounds. And, from my experience, as long as you make an honest effort to eat what you've ordered, you'll be fine. Despite living relatively close by, I've only been a few times recently but I think I see myself going on a more regular basis. read more

Went in for all you can eat because Mizu our first choice was too busy and we remember it being decent here ...that was a false memory . They didn't bring out certain things and doubled up on other things as well as just brought us stuff we never ordered at all . We had to clear all the plates ourselves to make room for more food as it came because they never bothered to do so and wouldn't even give you any time of day to even ask if you want water . The food is below average at best and everything is greasy at the end they forgot the one thing my wife asked about three times her chicken teriyaki roll but ignored that and decided to tell us we had to pay extra for a crab tempura they brought out by mistake that we did not order. Absolute trash service and trash food . read more

For AYCE sushi, the food is pretty good, but the service here is terrible. You never get half of the items you order and then have to wait another half hour before a waitress checks on you to see if you got what you ordered. I got worried my 3 hour time limit would run out before we got our meals. They also charge an extra dollar for dinner on Friday to Sunday. Why is this? No other restaurant I know of does this. One in our party is vegetarian but two of the vegetarian rolls both had small Flakes of fish roe splattered on them. Not good. read more

Came here for their AYCE dinner. I've been to a lot of all-you-can-eat sushi places, and I have to say, this place has great selection compared to other AYCE sushi restaurants in NS. Like most AYCE restaurants, you'll mark on a piece of paper the quantities you want, and they'll bring out your food as it's ready. Service was alright, and the food came out in a timely manner. Let's talk taste. The rolls are HUGE, like barely-fit-in-your-mouth huge. This is a bad thing, because they're comprised of mostly rice. I've never seen rolls with so much rice before. Unfortunately, this also means that these are probably the worst rolls I've ever had at any sushi restaurant... ever. So take Happy Sushi's already awful sushi rolls, and add like 2 layers of rice outside of them. Thankfully, the vast selection of sushi rolls during dinner kind of makes up for how much rice they put around them (some of them are actually good, just rice-heavy). They do offer standard sushi & sashimi options though, which is nice, and those taste like what you'd expect. Aside from that, the tempura and fried shrimp were both delicious. And they have other things too like teriyakis, chicken wings, soups, etc. Their dinner is a bit pricey but there is good selection so if you have a big appetite (and avoid the filler rolls), you end up saving quite a bit if you eat here as opposed to eating at a non-AYCE sushi restaurant. But if you mostly eat sushi rolls, it's hard to recommend this place because of how much rice you'll be eating. Here's the real problem: Mizu is very close, and way better. So my personal advice is to just never come here. -2 'riciest' AYCE rolls in HRM 11/11/2018 EDIT: The rolls are still very rice-heavy and the service is still very hit or miss! Sad to see zero improvement after two years. read more

I came here for the first time for a work event and enjoyed it very much. I found the AYCE price fine considering all the options I could do and was definately full by the end- remember you can sit and savour- don't feel rushed because if you over order- you will be charged for the items not eaten in house. I loved the terryaki and Pad Thai dishes and am still thinking about them now as its been a few months since my visit- planning to return hopefully this week!! read more

I hate to give a bad review of this place cause the food is great but i highly recommend do not come during supper hours. Both me and my fiance spent just over 2 hours tonight and most of it was waiting for food that either never arrived or was forgotten. There service is good but falls completely apart during rush hours to a point that some tables get orders lost or only partly served. Outside rush hours service is great and food is very tasty. read more

I have waited for a AYCE Sushi place to open in Dartmouth for a while, which makes me actually wonder why I didn't knock the doors down on this place opening day. We were greated by a very friendly server who walked us across the dinning room to a table near the kitchen doors, after surviving the trek accross the floor which btw is slippery as a greased pig (be careful) she explained the lunch menu and tried to decode how the ordering process worked, still dazed and confused but hungry we decided to just mark down some X's on the sheet and let it begin. We placed the first order with the server which had a combination of Spicy Tuna Rolls, Rainbow Rolls and BBQ Eel, not really knowing what to expect will come through those curtains our order hit the table fast and furious, which I will admit was suprising and a bit disconcerning at the same time. The Sushi was good quality, not the same you would find at Himachi or Sushi Nami but better than other well known AYCE's in the area, but hey at $14.99 it's hard to complain and it felt like we got our moneys worth. At the end of the meal we agreed its easy to point out the flaws and short comings of Genji but we realized that we just devoured close to $75-$100 worth of Sushi for about the same price as a value meal at McHappy's. Yelpers here some advice about how you should look at this place, if your looking for a prestigous Sushi place to enjoy the "Art" of Sushi making then it's safe to say this place is NOT for you, on the other hand if your hungry and want to take down some serious Sushi then I would recommend Genji and will be back. read more

Genji Sushi - Genji Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

My mother came down for a visit and we decided to go out for dinner. Since she has an allergy to Gluten and I have allergies to eggs we have a lot of trouble finding good places to eat. Well, we were not expecting the service we got at Genji Sushi! As soon as we alerted them that we had an allergy one of the wait staff came over and helped us make our selections. She was very helpful and knowledgeable and made sure we would enjoy our food and not get dosed with anything we couldn't eat. The food tasted amazing and they even gave us a gluten-free Soy sauce to use as well. The staff checked in frequently to make sure we were all right and we couldn't have been happier. All in all one of the best experiences we've had with a restaurant and they even gave us a coupon to come back with! read more

Food is great. Food is fast. Staff is friendly. Finally an AYCE Sushi restaurant in the HRM that actually asks if you would like to order more after your first order. We've been here at least a half dozen times and it's been excellent every time. read more

So I've been to this restaurant a bunch of times. The first year it opened, and more recently tonight. It is a diamond in the rough. In an area of Dartmouth you wouldn't exactly associate with upper class dining, display stands out. High quality sushi and other Asian dishes. All of this paired with exceptional service, and a beautiful attention to detail. Reasonably priced, considering it is all you can eat sushi/ Asian Cuisine. read more

Genji Sushi - a plate of sushi on a table - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

My parents took me here just before Christmas. Outside looks a bit sketch (not a great neighbourhood) and interior is nothing special. The room temperature was also a bit on the cool side. But the food was amazing! Tons of selection and everything we tried was wonderful. The portions are just the right size for everyone to have a taste of each dish without wasting food. Friendly and efficient service, too. Worth the $40 per person cost. I'd go again!! read more

Well, we decided to try Sushi the other night at Genji Sushi, since they have the all you can eat buffet. Well, it is not the place to go if you haven't experienced Sushi before! There's an item on the menu that the waiter circled stating basically that you will be charged for what you don't eat. I've eaten out quite a bit and have NEVER seen this on a menu before. Absolutely ridiculous! So much for "trying sushi." Let me start by saying that at $23.95 for the dinner all you can eat + $1 extra just because it's the weekend, this restaurant is overpriced for the quality of the food. And technically, if you don't finish all of the food on your plate like a good kid, you'll be charged $23.95 + $1.00 + the leftover food price! I'm not sure how this would work if we took kids here....we'd be paying for leftovers I guess! Service is quick, when you arrive. We ordered a few Teppanyaki dishes, which were served cold. These dishes are suppose to be served hot, but were luke warm at best. We did try some Sushi and the first items were good but then we ordered two dishes made with the seaweed wrap. It was an interesting experience...you couldn't bite through them and they were too big to swallow whole. So we left 4 (half of them) on our plate. It took about a half hour to actually get our bill. Nobody came back to check on us...I guess they were waiting to see if we would finish all of our meal before they billed us for the remaining food?? Not sure. We had to request the bill in the end. The women's bathroom is on an outside wall in this restaurant and was absolutely freezing. This was a "one timer" for us...we probably won't be venturing here again. read more

Tried this restaurant a few weeks ago as I thought it would be good to support a new spot like this (ie/ not drive thru) in my boyfriend's neighbourhood. The service was really lacking. We were seated with no instruction on how things worked. After looking over the menu cover, I realized that we could just order whatever we wanted and it would be $21.99 no matter what. Sounds good initially. We tried out the crispy deep fried scallops only to quickly discover that the so-called scallops were actually made from imitation crab meat!! The veggie dumplings were good as was the shrimp tempura but the serving size was meesly (2 each). The edamame was typical. My boyfriend got the chicken udon soup made with cut up breaded chicken patties and frozen veggies. And I barely ate any of my usual favourite sushi rolls, the tempura shrimp. The rice was dry and it seemed unfresh as if the sushi had been made earlier in the day. Really disappointing. I wondered if there was a general lack of respect for the customers, assuming Nova Scotians wouldn't notice the difference between a scallop and mock crab (pollock). I realize when going to an all-you-can-eat restaurant one should lower expectations, but being accustomed to sushi from Dharma on Argyle Street has definitely taught me to appreciate good Japanese cuisine. This place will likely never get another dollar from my pocket. :( read more

First, let me say that I really wanted to like this place. I work in downtown Dartmouth and having sushi nearby was never a reality before. And I struggled with whether I should give it 2 stars or 3, but finally settled on 2 because although they have some kinks to work out, some of this stuff should never have happened. Lets start with the good though: I went at lunchtime, and $14.99 for all you can eat isn't a bad deal. I was with a friend, and we were seated by a window. The space is nice, it could use a bit of ambiance but it is modern and clean. The menu was pretty easy to navigate, we picked 2 different kinds of rolls each plus some veggie and sweet potato tempura for starting. We put our order in and just had water to drink. The tempura didn't take very long to get there, and the outside was crispy and the inside was tender. Here's where the first problem began: we were sharing from the same basket of tempura and the same sauce, yet we didn't have plates of our own, so the sauce would drip between the basket in the middle and our mouths. Awkward. We had a good laugh about it at least. The sushi also came all on one platter, to share, with no extra plates. When our waitress brought the sushi she asked if we wanted to order anything else. We said no. She walked away and never came back - despite the fact that there was no wasabi anywhere. Strangely, my sushi that I was expecting to be cold was all warm. It was a strange feeling, but it was pretty tasty. However, it was very spicy (which is how I ordered it) but I had run out of water and the waitress never came to fill my glass. When we finally finished, we sat a bit while our waitress went around to other tables. When she finally came back, she asked it we wanted to order more. At this point we hadn't seen our waitress the entire time we were eating, and never got any wasabi or more water. I heard people from other tables also asking for wasabi, and noticed another lady get up and get her own cutlery. When we paid, we weren't asked how everything was, we weren't asked how we were paying, and I don't think we were even formally thanked. Our waitress was doing multiple things at once, and I felt didn't really give us the attention we deserved. All in all, most of these things could be fixed with a little more attention to customer service. I was just disappointed, although I was excited with all you can eat sushi, it really didn't live up to my expectations. I will revisit in a bit and see if things have changed. read more

I watched as this place was getting put in, and once I found out it was open, was chomping at the bit to go try it. The order sheet was a bit confusing, but the server was more than happy to walk me through it. The first thing crossing my mind was how to not blow the budget, up until I found out it was the fixed cost. Once I ordered, dishes came fast and furious up to the point that the restaurant got extremely busy (near empty when I showed up, but filled really quickly). After that there was a notable gap between dishes; during which a server actually came up and asked if I was finished, to which I had to point out that I wasn't even halfway through my order. This was perhaps the biggest peeve. Aside from that, while the portions were modest, they tasted great and was a crazy good value for the price. Definitely going back! read more

I finally managed to convince my parents to come out for sushi (this has been a months-long process). They'd had a very bad experience with homemade sushi years ago and, as such, were rather reluctant to try it again. Genji has converted them! Don and I did the vast majority of the ordering since we've eaten at Genji at least a dozen times in the past six months and consider ourselves slightly seasoned, so the evening's lineup was quite varied. Things got off to a great start with the green tea - my parents loved it and accepted many refills. The seaweed salad, tempura shrimp and pumpkin, and edamame were also very much enjoyed. We eased into some "safe" sushi choices, such as the crab and cucumber, tempura yam, and avocado rolls...and both Mom and Dad loved them! Mom wasn't interested in all the wondrously spicy rolls we ordered, but my dad liked them a lot. Dessert also ended on a pleasant note with some deep-fried bananas and ice cream. There's no question that my parents will be returning to Genji! read more

If you're going for quantity and don't care about quality, you may find yourself liking this place. Went with a large group who shared everything so I had the opportunity to try a lot of their menu. The service was not great, because they put a seemingly inexperienced waitress on a table of 20+ and she was a little overwhelmed, receiving very little help from her coworkers in an otherwise slow restaurant. I felt horrible for her. She was rushing around and trying her best. Good for her. Reflects poorly on the restaurant though. NIGIRI SUSHI - The nigiri features a 9:1 rice:fish ratio. There was so little fish on the nigiri that I couldn't even really discern its quality. I'm sure the fish quality was ok, and I kind of expected this sort of trickery from an AYCE place. But this was a little over the top OKONOMIYAKI - I gotta say that I was really excited to see this rarity on the menu. I talked it up to those sitting around me once I ordered it and sort of raised their expectations. WHOOPS. I suspect the person who prepared this dish may have never seen or eaten it before. The ingredient ratio was pretty non-standard. For example, it was a fairly thin (and undercooked BTW) slab with a lumberjack's fist worth of bonito on the top. Once I removed 90% of the bonito and could tell the thing was undercooked, my fellow diners sort of all made the same disgusted face. A few of them tried it politely since I had talked it up so much. I didn't even like it. but I ate it anyway since I was the one who ordered. Huge disappointment. Avoid read more

Darn! After great experiences at "all you can eat" sushi places in Toronto, such as Aji Sai, I was excited to see one opening in HRM. My hubby and I went for pre-movie date night last week. All I can say is... don't go. There was no soy sauce on the table, no wasabi or ginger served w sushi, cold sushi was served on a piping hot plate, they subbed items without asking, and hubby' s grilled beef was more like "steamed.", and I ate very little. I don't care if it's all you can eat, it's just not good. Sad. read more

Hello Sushi Friends! I went for lunch here today and it was as awesome as it gets. I have eaten here a few times before, but today was the best. I do like sushi, it is my favourite food, and I have eaten sushi lunch in several restaurants in the metro area. What did I like about Genji today? A nice quiet table by the big picture window with pretty Japanese dishes. A friendly and polite host who seated me and made me feel comfortable. A considerate waitress who served me with ease. My appetizers were miso soup, seaweed salad, salmon teriyaki. My maki were chopped white tuna with green onion and tempura bits, and the second was pumpkin, yam, eggplant and green pepper roll. Both were delicious and hit the spot. I also had 2 scallops in tempura batter, and 2 grilled vegetarian dumplings, as well as 4 nigiri, salmon, red fish roe, green seaweed salad and spicy salmon. Nice lunch, eh? All my food was tasty. The hot food was hot. The dishes arrived as they were prepared. I received everything I ordered and it was exactly as described on the menu. They are really on their toes here. When I finished a dish, the waitress discretely took it away...to make more room ) I liked the washroom too. The faucets have interesting spouts. There was a nice bottle of hand soap to use, a large glass potpourri and a pretty green plant sitting by the sink. The waitress offered me a discount for paying by cash, which I did. The lunch menu is extensive and includes many new items. I am looking forward to going back and ordering different dishes next time. In the meantime, I am going to go on a diet ) read more

Having eaten sushi almost everywhere in Halifax, I decided to try out Genji one evening. It was a Tuesday, the restaurant was rather empty but there were enough staff on to cover the restaurant should it be full. Service was prompt, menu was extensive, but the sushi was terrible. From pictures I see, I must have ordered the wrong items - all of my sushi was dry, lacked colour, flair, and had mayonnaise inside.... not really sure if mayonnaise is traditional in Japanese cooking, but I feel it's not. I had ordered the red dragon roll, crispy spicy tuna and yam rolls. All of which looked sloppily placed on a plate and served, no sauces, no traditional decoration, nothing. Unfortunately for the price, I will take my business elsewhere. I was excited to try this restaurant as I had heard many good things, but I just can't give it a good review from my experience. read more

Overall the food was was not bad, not great but not terrible. The presentation was lacking and the edamame was by no means fresh. Service was prompt and friendly, however when I got my bill I noticed that I was charged 12.95 for the Hawaii roll, which on their menu is priced at 8.95. When I asked the manger why I was charged a higher price she just shrugged and said "Sometimes things go up..." I resent not being made aware of the price increase when I was ordering. I can understand a business having to increase the price of certain items but please take the time to update your menu or make customers aware. Do not just charge a higher price and assume that they won't notice. I will be contacting the restaurant via Facebook and the Better Business Bureau which will hopefully resolve the issue. read more

Genji Sushi - Price on the menu and on my bill do not match. Was not told about the difference. When I noticed and asked staff did nothing - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

Having newly joined the "I love Sushi" club, I decided to go to an all-you-can-eat sushi place with some guy friends to try out more sushi options. I first noticed this place while I my bus home from Uni and thought it was going to be like your typical buffet; variety of options, you serve yourself. It's quite different. You enter, get seated and the waiter gives you a sheet of all the available sushi. Don't worry, It's not a few options; it's every sushi you could think possible. You check off what you want and they BRING YOU YOUR SUSHI. But the menu doesn't just have sushi! There's salads, soups, noodles... yuuuuuuuummmmm My friends & I went on a wednesday afternoon, so it wasn't busy and we got the lunch deal - which wasn't expensive considering what we got in sushi. The waiter was very nice and explained how everything worked. The waitress however, was very abrupt. For example, she was going around filling water and as she was coming around my table I was sipping my water. "more water?" I nodded. I took the glass away from my lips and she immediately grabbed it out of my hand. Uh? ok? Whatever.. The only downside on this place is that whatever you DON'T EAT. You get charged for. So keep an eye on the menu! Most of the sushi comes in packs of 4 or 6 (not 1 like some of us would hope when trying new sushi). But I still give this place a high rating, the foods delicious and who doesn't love a buffet where they bring it to you? read more

Visited today, August 8th, 2021. DISGUSTING! Maggot on BBQ BEEF RIBS. You have to check your plate before consuming your food. Thank God, my six year old daughter noticed the crawling maggot on the plate. It was on the beef drippings. We also noticed that the beef was way undercooked. The manager didnt know how to handle customer complaints. He has the nerves to demand payment from us...like NO. We're not paying for a maggot-infested food. Friendly advice to those who consider eating here: CHECK YOUR PLATE For BUGS! read more

Meh. This place would be much better if they worked on their customer service and made sure things were still fresh toward the end the night. I took a friend that was in from out of town and we got there about an hour before closing time. They were very rushy about us ordering and we had to flag them down to put our order in. We did the all you can eat option. We got our order in and Our dishes came quickly but was soon followed by a swarm of fruit flies which was very unpleasant so we decided to move further back in the restaurant. After doing so the waitress came and told me that we should have told her first... twice. And not in a very nice manner.... maybe if there weren't so many flies bugging around us and no one checking on us then I would of had the opportunity to do so... The food was okay. Tasted a little stale and even the top of the wasabi was starting to get a little dry so I knew it been sitting for a while. All in all it wasn't the dinner experience I was trying to give a friend from out of town. I would prob try another place next time. read more

Oh my goodness, I have been waiting to find a good AYCE sushi place since forever, and Genji is exactly what I've been looking for all this time. I was here with three other people with big appetites and for 18$ each (Friday lunch rate) what we got was beyond awesome. And by the way, you do get 10% off if you pay in cash, which is also pretty great! Service was as good as anything we could ask for, all of our orders were brought to our table really quickly and not a thing was forgotten, despite us being there during a busy lunchtime. I'm now trying to remember everything we ate. We started off with appetizers: edamame (delicious), seaweed salad (pretty much the same as other restaurants, still good) spring rolls (blistering hot and very tasty) and mango salad (I would have preferred less dressing because mayo-ey things are not to my taste, but still amazing.) We followed that with California, cucumber, asparagus tempura, BBQ salmon, spicy salmon, and rainbow rolls. They were all very tasty (and asparagus tempura was divine) though a bit more fish on the rainbow roll would have been appreciated. We also had fried tofu (watery, not good at all, the one low point), hand rolls and fried bananas for dessert. Bananas were good, lighter than I thought they'd be, which was nice to round off the meal. Overall, I am in love with this place, and we didn't even try any of the wok or dinner items! Yes, if you want exquisitely crafted gourmet sushi, you won't find it here...But what they have at Genji is very, very good and quite sufficient to get your sushi fix. Looking forward to coming here with a larger group and trying even more of the menu! read more

I like their dinner menu. Good variety in that. Lunch menu is no that good. If you are looking for a good variety, that would be the place to go . Also, do not stab your food with a chopstick, it is considered disrespectful as I learned there :) read more

I have been to this place a handful of times. They really really need to step up their customer service... Language barrier, and the lack of respect is pretty ridiculous for this decently 'well-known' restaurant. You feel rushed, they never smile! We always feel like we've done something wrong :s Quality is mediocre. They do have some outstanding appetizers (only on dinner menu though..), but their sushi and sashimi are substandard compared to many places in HRM. (Try Sushi nami. Even better,,, during their happy hours.) Every time I have been there, except for once, they lost so many of our orders... BUT this has to be the best all-you-can-eat sushi place in HRM right now. Happy Sushi and other places lack variety and quality. I will probably return here again, hoping that things will be better each time. read more

The usual gang went again for lunch a week or so ago. Service was better but here we go again with changes....and yes change is often good but..... 1) I didn't see anywhere notice that the price has gone UP again! I'm going tomorrow with my sister and mother and will see if it is posted and I missed it. I've seen this complaint about them a previous time so maybe they just slide it to you :( 2) They have moved some of our very favourite lunch items to the dinner options menu. SUCKS but they replied with "but we have added lots of items".....oh ok. In truth we did try some of the 'new' items and were pleased but it just seems wrong to have some available since opening which are your favourites and to see them move to the dinner menu. 3) Rice still seems not as good as earlier months. Something up? Overall I'm still a fan and if they move the Shrimp Tempura I'm out of here ;) read more

I am usually wary of all you can eat places because my experience has been pretty disappointing but I was delighted with Genji. The food was fresh and very flavorful although I am not 100% sure that we got everything we ordered. The tempura was light and not too greasy. The dumplings were very yummy and hot. The salmon was really fresh. The service was a little slow but I am sure they are just working out the kinks. As a person with an allergy to shellfish I appreciated the great selection of rolls that I was able to eat although I still had a little cross contamination but that was likely due to sharing a dipping sauce by accident. We had so much food and the price was just right. We will certainly be going back! read more

As a sushi newbie this is a great place for the more basic rolls but has a big selection. If you like sushi then definitely try this place out. read more

Genji Sushi - They do sell alcohol - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

I have been to the first ALL YOU CAN EAT Sushi restaurant several times, however my bestie and I decided to try this newer AYCE place. Well.....it was the best choice ever ! The service and food was just spectacular. I cannot say enough good things about this place. *We started with a couple of hand rolls, mine was the BBQ Eel...SO tasty. *We then had tempura shrimp,sweet potato and then some steamed dumplings...all of these were not greasy at all ( unlike the other AYCE place ). They were light and crispy. *Next came the spicy salmon roll....THE BEST I have had. *Last we had the spicy white tuna roll, it was a bit too spicy for me, however still tasty. The price was $14.99 for lunch, and I found it well worth every penny !!!!! Cannot wait to go back for Dinner and try some of their house rolls. read more
