Opiniones de Genji Oakland
One of my favorite lunch time spots in downtown because the food is good, the service is quick and the place is always very clean. They have a cold deli with a selection of bottled drinks and small cold dishes to go. The menu is small but this allows them to make high quality meals quickly. The large windows make for a nice ambient lit room to have lunch in.

Extremely friendly, a little small, but always very fresh and tasty. It's my favorite sushi place in the SF Bay Area.
My favorite lunch spot in downtown Oakland. They are open for takeout. I love authentic teriyaki flavor.
Delicious. Really my favorite lunch spot. Friendly and for me the grilled salmon is two meals 👍🍴
Excellent lunch option. Super tasty and great, speedy service!
Clean, fresh, simple Japanese meals. They cook everything to order and don't over-sauce their food like a lot of Americanized Japanese restaurants. Great mom-and-pop place run by a hardworking family.
The menu is limited but the quality is always high! The chicken is fresh from the grill, not sitting under a heat lamp. The slaw and edamame are perfect accompaniments.
My favorite lunch spot. Very healthy, fresh food. Portions are perfect for me as it never makes me feel bloated. Delicious shrimp teriyaki and their miso soup is amazing. This is not a sushi restaurant - I've seen some people mistake it for one. They serve teriyaki bento plates with rice, protein, small cucumber vinegar salad and edamame. It fills me up for the day. Owned by the very sweet and nice husband and wife (chef and cashier). The line cooks are also super nice guys. Love this place very much!
I came here about 2 weeks ago for lunch and man was it delicious! I ordered a to go plate with Teriyaki chicken, Teriyaki shrimp, and brown rice but it also came with edamame and this tangy lime cucumber salad. I highly recommend this restaurant! My new favorite spot I can't wait to take my family here
Very tasty and affordable. I usually get the beef /steak combo plate. Its really good. They ask you how you want your meat prepared which is good.
Wen and her husband are salt of the earth types who make wholesome Japanese-style set lunches. My go-to order is the grilled shrimp and teriyaki chicken combo — the proteins have a bit of char on them that is just downright yummy.
Been coming here for years (since they were in Ogawa Building). Excellent fresh food. The salads (with teriyaki salmon, beef, or chicken) are great for carb watchers too.
Healthy, delicious and amazing service. You wont regret coming her for lunch! Ive lost 10lbs coming here for lunch this passed year. Did I mention how delicious their teryaki chicken is? Definitely give it a try.
Got the chicken teriyaki and it was really good! Definitely recommend this to my family and friends
Think of the part last time you ate teriyaki...dried chicken with a bunch of gross sauce. This place perplexed me... the chicken and shrimp are perfectly cooked, with just enough sauce. The care in the prep is beyond anything you'd expect for what you'd think is a simple dish. I honestly can't think of another place that makes food this juicy, and with care. It's been on my weekly lunch rotation for a reason. Shame it's in a dead city bc you can tell they care when restaurants around them only care to make a buck.

I ordered the teriyaki chicken for lunch. It was fast service, affordable, and the chicken was good-a rare trilogy for the area.

Food was tasty, but prawns were overdone. Price was high for what I got. Teriyaki was light on sauce, feels like they went for a healthier style than most I've seen. Edamame was good, salad was pleasant. Overall an okay choice for lunch.
Food tastes great, but if you have a big appetite you'll want to grab more than just the normal combo.

Teriyaki Salmon - had this twice a week apart, both times was fresh and yummy. Served with a nice little tangy salad, edamame, and rice. Pretty much take-out only, and it's fast. Owner remembered my order on the second visit, wow. Next time I'll ask for a little extra teri sauce.
I typically come here for the chicken, and from what I've observed, most people do as well. They are fast, and quality never deviates. It's usually crowded around lunch time, and the place isn't exactly the biggest. Take away is the route to go if you come here.

I saw the great review about the teriyaki chicken from previous review (didn't look at the year..oops) and decided to try a combo of beef and chicken teriyaki. All I can say is it wasn't seasoned well. The meat should taste good by itself and it wasn't. The slaw/salad wasn't seasoned well either.
