Great Food - Citysearch

Great Fish and Huge Portions! - Citysearch
I go to all the "best" sushi restaurants in town often: Nozawa, Sasabune, Zo, Mori, etc....
Gen is straightforward. The fish is fresh and they give you a nice hunk of fish.
Best food in town - Citysearch
Food is amazing. Every time I come here, I feel like I never want to leave. Very chic atmosphere with a relaxing mood.
The service is great and the staff really does a terrific job at taking care of you.
The appetizers are delicious.
Theres plenty of places to park: theres a parking lot across the street and a parkin garage up the street within walking distance.
Most of the time I find myself looking at my watch waiting for the food to come, but here I was so entertained with the fun atmosphere that I was pleasantly surprised when my food arrived

Omakase Orgasm! - Citysearch
Omakase Orgasm!
When you become a sushi snob, omakase is a must at Sushi-Gen.
Sushi Master Masa started us out with a seaweed soup that we slurped up in delight. I loved the daikon flavoring contrasting with the cool slippery seaweed.
We had over 20 pieces of fish. Each order came with two pieces so make sure you specify if you only want one piece. The toro, Spanish mackerel and albacore was the best I've had. I also enjoyed the red snapper, squid and they did a good job with basics like eel.
The only downside is the cost which didn't afford us any extras. And I felt the service was very slow. Still, I'd put up with again just for more toro.
Great Japanese food in LA - Citysearch
This food is a little pricey for what it is, however, if you are feeling sushi tonight and you are in LA, there is no better place

Favorite Sushi Restaurant - Citysearch
Hands down my favorite sushi restaurant to go to. Freshest and best quality sushi in the LA area. Try to go for dinner as the lines for lunch are ridiculous.
Great sushi @ an affordable price!! - Citysearch
The sushi is always fresh here and the service is good. I always enjoy sitting at the sushi bar bc I know I will be well taken care of.
The Chirashi bowl lunch special is worth the trip to dtla! But come before it open or after the lunch rush!! If not, you will have to wait!

Sushi Gen in LA's Little Tokyo has lost its aura. Nothing much to write about a slightly above average...

Downtown is the spot - Citysearch
I love downtown...they always have restaurants that have good quick lunch specials...but if you're ever in the hollywood area...Club Sushi is a good place too.
Simply Great! - Citysearch
The food here is terrific and the service is usually pretty good. I've been here with my friends quite a few times and they all loved it. The only downside is the long wait during dinner hours and the atmosphere is only mediocre. Sushi Gen is amazing nonetheless.
Consistent yet too big for comfort - Menuism
Althought the fish quality at Sushi-Gen is consistent yet it's not outstanding. They can seat ~100 guests in..

After all these years, I finally walk into Sushi Gen. Tried it for lunch, must return to check out dinner....
Great Sushi~! Best Sushi so far in L.A - Citysearch
I lived in Japan for 14 years, and almost gave up that there is no Sushi that came close to what I use to eat in Japan. Many Sushi place ran by Korean people here in SoCal. (I'm not being racst, i'm Korean) But Sushi men at Korean owned Sushi place don't really know how to make real sushi, unless they went Japan to be trained. In Japan, minimum length of training to be a Sushi men is 3 years. 1st year they don't even allow you to touch rice. But here...Sushi men starts working right away without any proper training.(i know it because two of my friends are in this business). Some generous person treated me to this Sushi Gen last year, and me and my friend ordered almost all the sushi at Sushi Gen. And Boy~! This is closest I have had worthy to call it Sushi. This generous gentlemen treated me and my friends (12 of us) and came out to be $750 (including $120 tips..he was very generous). So yea, don't know if I can go there again due to it's price...but definitely great Sushi. Oh I do have to say that just because Sushi place is ran by Japanese owner and Japanese Sushi Men does not mean they are great Sushi. If you happen to stop by San Francisco, never go to Tsunami (number 1 Sushi in San Francisco by CitySearch). Although it is owned by Japanese people and Japanese Sushi Men...these Sushi men definitely never had any training. I got so mad that they sell those awful things as Sushi. Anyway...just couldn't help but say this everywhere on City Search.
Amazing sushi - Citysearch
My boy mentioned this place to me a few times and finally took me there. It was his first time going there too. It was a week night and the place was crowded. They sat us immediately at the sushi bar as we had requested. We got "Omakase style" and we were truly satisfied with everything the sushi chef served us. We love uni and I have to really give this place 5 stars for the delicious uni that they have. All of sushi there is amazing. We left there oh so satisfied. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. That is how good it is. From the service to the food. Yum yummy yum.
Worth the wait - Citysearch
We finally tried this hidden jewel in Little Tokyo. When we arrived, there was a long wait, but we were told it was always like that. Once we sat for dinner, everything was smooth sailing. Everything we had was amazing besides the miso soup. The fish was so fresh and cut perfectly. I'm jonesing to go back as I'm writing this review. Yum!
The only place to Eat Sushi in Los Angeles - Citysearch
The best service, food and fish in all of Los Angeles. This is the way to experience Sushi. Sit at the Sushi Bar and ask them to take care of you and you will not be disappointed.
