My 6 year old nephew loves Genki Sushi. You punch in your order on a keypad and after awhile WOOSH your food comes racing in from the kitchen in a red or yellow racecar. He is completely mesmerized and in love with those cars.
When he grows up, my nephew will (hopefully) realize that style is no substitute for substance. We stopped by Genki for dinner and got a bunch of stuff. The typical ones were salmon sashimi, salmon oyako don, unadon, and flying fish roe. The funkier ones were the tempura spam and tamago roll, and the Japanese tuna adobo. Whether typical or funky, all of them were meh. Not awful, but also either on the bland side or not of high enough quality. And at those prices, I definitely expected more. Too bad I don't find food-bearing racecars that wonder-full. read more
