    New Japanese restaurant at BGC! They just opened last September 14th :)
    Joey R.

    I had a looong day today and I needed Japanese food to "reward" myself. Carlo, my fiancée, suggested we try a very new Japanese restaurant at the Fort. He heard about Genki from his mom (who found about this place because of a flyer). So, he called and asked for their exact location + what time was their last order. They said they were by the McDonald's stopover and that they would close by 10PM. It was 920PM when we called. We had enough time...or so we thought! *tun tun tun* We parked across the McDonald's stopover and headed to the 2nd floor. Lo and behold, no Genki. Maybe they are at the 3rd floor? Nope. *Time check: 936PM* Carlo calls again. The receptionist tells us they are across St. Luke's BGC, 2nd floor, near a McDonald's, Family Mart & CBTL...whuuut?! So, we decide to walk further until we see the Jollibee stopover. Boom! We saw the Family Mart and CBTL! *Time check: 948PM* Carlo and I literally start running to the building! We even ran up the escalator. We see Genki! As we reach the restaurant... We were greeted with the "closed" sign. *Time check: 1002PM* (;__;) My heart sank. I was ready to just go to CBTL and have my usual salad. But, Carlo didn't give up! He talked to the manager about the receptionist not giving the right directions and that we just really just made it in time. Surprisingly... They let us in! Yaaasss ~~~ Happiness! :D TIME TO EAT! Since this was our very first time here, the waitress explained to us that we had to order all our food using the menu tablet and that our orders would "arrive by train" 3 orders at a time (by train? This was unexpected). Also, she explained that the faucet to our right was our "unlimited" hot green tea. All you need to do was put 2 teaspoons of matcha in your cup and turn on the faucet. Nice! The menu was pretty simple to use. You have Sushi, Sashimi, Appetizers, Grilled food, Rice bowls, Beverages. Then, they are each divided into subsets. Our first order was Tuna Sashimi, Seared Salmon with Black pepper + Salmon Belly nigiri. We placed the order and, in 5 mins, the little train came out!!! IT WAS SO CUUUTE :) (Please check my photos for reference) The tuna sashimi was fresh and were thick cuts. No wasabi but I was happy to just squeeze a bit of lemon on each piece. The winner though was the Seared Salmon! Sooo good! Melt in your mouth delicious! I would have order that again but, I wanted to try other nigiris. So, I tried the Inari Sushi, Spicy Tuna Sushi and the Unagi Sushi (Sorry, no photos :( I just ate it all!). The unagi sushi was a very generous serving! Seasoned just right with the perfect size serving of rice. Perfection! *Time check: 1021PM* Overall, the whole food experience was WORTH it! I loved the fast and efficient service; I also appreciated that they accommodated us even though it was closing time :) I can imagine that this would be the perfect lunch spot for people working in the BGC area. It's not high-end Japanese food BUT the quality fits the price! Our total bill was only Php675. That's a very fair price for all the food we ate. I would definitely come back here! Next time, I plan to eat their Chirashi Don and I want to try their rice bowls! :)

    Sushi sushi!

    Average-tasting sushi. Which becomes really good when you're super hungry or PMS-ing. Or just craving for sushi and need a fix right then and there. But I did really like their offerings with salmon (even if it wasn't the best kind of salmon you can find). And the corn maki was surprisingly good. Simple but good. Everything else was just hmmkay for me. I found it too rice-y (meaning I tasted the rice more than the actual fish). The order-from-a-screen thing and bullet train delivery to your table are really fun though. Trust the Japanese to always make life a tad bit interesting!!

    L to R: tempura shrimp, fried salmon maki, and spicy salmon. SO GOOD.

    I'm a very "all about the experience" type of foodie so this place made my night!! You order everything on a small touchscreen beside your table and then it is put on a car/conveyor belt and sent to your table! It was so so fun! Not to mention everything we had was delicious. We had tempura shrimp roll, fried maki salmon roll, spicy salmon roll and so much more that I don't remember and didn't take a picture of! But honestly everything was so good! Not to mention free unlimited DIY matcha. :)

    Experience Japan in Manila with a digital approach of touch screen ordering. Your food will arrive in car train conveyor belt. HITS: Built-in hot water in every table (made for your soup) Sushi Dessert MISS: Unorganized queu on a weekend dinner WARNING: With the fun easy order system, you have a tendency to hoard!

    You can't call it a California roll if you add mango.
    Liana M.

    Everything we had was good, until we had the "California Roll" that had mango in it. Don't get me wrong, I love mango, I'm from an island, but I don't want it in my California roll.

    Ooma is a play on the Japanese word "umai," meaning "good" but for me Ooma is more like OOMAGOD!…read moreEverything here is soooo GOOD!!! Ooma is a well known Japanese restaurant that offers fusion dishes that fits the Filipino palate. They have three locations in Manila but we decided to dine at their SM Megamall branch. We were told to expect long lines at all Ooma locations but we got lucky to be seated right away. The hostess greeted us right promptly and the entire staff were all friendly, fast, and efficient. We were very pleased with excellent customer service provided. The food? OOMAGOD! I loved every single dish we ordered. From sushi to soft shell crab to hangar steak to dessert. I didn't bother knowing the names because I just went on chomping and devouring every dish brought to our table. They tasted as good as they looked. It's just WOW! Amazing food yet very affordable. Highly recommended!

    Ooma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma!!!! Solid sushi making happening…read morein here tourists and residents of Manila! Japanese resto on the third or fourth floor of this mall and the place is similar to a small sushi place here in Toronto with only about 10-15 tables that extend inside the mall so you can 'people watch' while you munch on some fresh well-handled ingredients. The chicken teriyaki dinner was served on a bed of fresh leafy greens with bomb teriyaki sauce drizzled on top that can activate salivation in an instant. The sushi rolls were compact with flavour and filling that is heavily squished between master hands and a wooden roller perfecting a trip coming to an end in my beautiful city. I forget which ones we ordered but we came near closing and the options were limited to what's available for the chef to make so we settled for what it is, but it never felt like settling. Service was also warm despite us bombarding into the server's wishful thinking in getting the restaurant cleaned and empty in time for clocking out. Please refer to the pictures taken as all of the above have imprinted quality sushi in our minds whenever we are back for some shopping next visit. A bit on the pricier side compared to other cheaper options in and out the mall but it's equivalent to paying $60 and on par with the a la carte restos here in Toronto.

    This is my nearest go to Japanese place when I'm too lazy to go Tokyo Town. They serve good sushi…read morerolls and yakitori. I must say their salmon uni aburi maki and oysters are the bomb. Also try their sukiyaki, kamameshi rice, tempura, and the beef tongue- scallop salad. they also have a wide selection of sakes. A little pricey for the average person but you get what you pay for. follow my food adventure at https://instagram.com/edubie

    Marufuku is my family's "Secret" Japanese Restaurant (I hope they don't kill me for disclosing its…read morelocation!). It's quietly tucked in the Pearl drive of Ortigas is a must-visit! Just enter the sliding door and, I promise you, you will experience authentic Japanese cuisine. Their menu has a variety of appetizers, ramens, sushi, sashimi, yakitori, and katsus. Of all the dishes I must order, it is their Uni Nigiri (Php95 per piece, 2USD). The Uni they serve is always very sweet and fresh. I usually order a few robata (grilled) items such as their Butabara Shio (Php85 per stick, 1.84USD) and Yakitori (Php75 per stick, 1.62USD) to go with their Onigiri Sanshu (3 Kinds of Rice Balls for Php345, 7.46USD). If you really want to go all out, I recommend you order their Chirashi Don (Php650, 14USD), the sashimi will depend on the delivery of the day. They also offer premium sakes to cap of your meal. This is an honest to goodness wonderful Japanese restaurant. If you're in Ortigas, forget those pseudo Japanese restaurants in the malls and head on over to Marufuku. :)
