Traditional With a Twist
The chefs hail from the well-known Toronto sushi eatery Edo and they insist on flying in their fresh fish. The restaurant serves traditional Japanese cuisine like teriyaki and sashimi but also a variety of new inventions. Its signature creation, the Boston roll, is a combination of Boston lettuce, shrimp, Alaskan king crab, avocado and spicy sauce.

Japanese Food Enthusiasts
The open dining area of the restaurant seats 65, including its sushi bar, where you can sit and enjoy watching the sushi chefs create your meal. As well as many seafood and meat choices, there are a variety of vegetarian and tofu dishes on the menu. They also serve the very popular but not-so-traditional sushi pizza, a combination of seafood delights presented like a pizza on a bed of fried rice.

Great Dining; Greater Choices
The restaurant features modern décor with a few semi-private Japanese-style partitions for your more covert dinner dates. You can make dining at Genji the ultimate Japanese experience with the large menu selection. They also have set menu dinners that have five courses including soup, salad and ice cream for dessert. The menu also has a wide variety of beer, wine and liquor, but Genji specializes in a variety of cold sakes, the traditional Japanese rice wine.
