    My favorite sushi spot in boston. Most organic ingredients with the option of brown or multi grain rice with maki. The genki ya roll and volcano rolls are bomb

    One of my fave sushi places in Boston, consistently good food, creative rolls. Organic and natural. All choices can be ordered with brown rice

    Everything on the menu is all natural or organic. The fish is fresh and the portions are big. The best deal on the menu is the lunch special. Try the Triple Torch roll or the Dynamite roll! Read more

    The Genki Ichiban app is especially delicious. So are the rolls wrapped w/ cucumber rather than rice & seaweed, but everything I've had here has been yummy!

    Most of the food here is organic. You can ask for either white, brown or multi grain rice for your sushi. Try the Genki Ichiban.

    Genki ichiban app, alligator roll, and spicy scallop roll are excellent. Hot tea is good but costs $2.

    Small place with good sushi. Don't get the fried chicken as it's nothing special as well as the udon. The genki special and red sox were good.

    Order the Volcano before ordering anything else-- they take a while to make it!

    Get the Makimono Combo to share. Along with some misp soup, it's the perfect meal.

    We came for the good reviews, but was welcomed by pissed off employees. EVERYONE looked at us like we had 8 heads & seemed mad we were there 30 mins BEFORE closing. No customers, just angry employees.
