"If you’re simply here to enjoy good food, then you came to the right place. The ingredients are solid and absolutely worth the price — honestly, even comparable to places that charge $200–300. But if you’re coming for a date or looking for ceremony and ambiance, this isn’t really the spot. There’s no detailed ingredient presentation or any wow-factor moments. One more thing to note: after you finish all the courses, the extra add-on dishes aren’t really worth it. Everything else is great though"

"Great fun/casual omakase. The price-quality-quantity was on point. Thanks a lot for the chef with who we spent a great time and could share some sake :) The only thing I would change is the interior that could be better."

"Genki East Omakase on Stanton has unbeatable prices, quality, and most importantly vibe. Open the doors to an omakase experience for just $65 led by Chef Adam and enjoy his artistic culinary techniques combined with the freshest seasonal ingredients. Taste the freshness and quality with each bite in Genki East’s simple and clean sushi bar while watching how it’s prepared. That unagi is a real treat. The sweet and savory sensation really completes the meal perfectly. If you’re looking for a high quality omakase with amazing vibes withoit breaking the bank, Genki East is absolutely worth the visit."

"I was in NY for a show and thought I'd try an Omakase tasting while here. I looked a Google reviews and saw a lot of positive feedback for Genki Omakase! I'm glad I came the food was delicious, the sake was a perfect pairing and the service was top tier. I had the 13 course pairing and ordered the house sake. I would highly recommend this restaurant for your Omakase tasting experience!"

"I was recommended this place by a friend and it did not disappoint. The price for quality is certainly a great deal. All of the fish tasted extremely fresh. Each course was unique and had its own spin. Our chef did an excellent job. The waitresses were also very attentive and thorough. My one critique is that if you are sitting in the seats closer to the door, the music can be very loud. It was difficult to understand what our chef was saying most of the time. Nonetheless, I certainly recommend coming here for a great prices Omakase in NYC."
