Genji Japanese Steakhouse

Family and I have been going here for years. Absolutely delicious food and great service. An experience worth the price!

Start with a mangorita it was very good. Had the filet & shrimp for dinner, tried the rice & noodles and all of the food was very good. Chef was good & the restaurant was very clean. One person at our grill had sushi & said it was delicious. There is nothing inexpensive about a Japanese steakhouse so prices where right on par. I didn’t car for the ginger salad dressing & normally I like it. The soup that came with the dinner was good. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is we had a 6:30 reservation & didnt get seated for an hour however the manager did compensate us for our lost time & that was very appreciated. The restaurant was packed.

I love love the food the drinks and the people every thing was great definitely going back

Parents in town, let’s go somewhere super fun… Genji it is.
Tom was our chef and was probably THEEEEE best chef we have ever had there.
Drinks seemed to have a heavy pour to them (certainly not a complaint). Food is good. If you are being budget minded: split an entry. There is a $ 10 dollar charge to do so.

I visited here with my my family. The bar is wonderful but busy. Our server was very nice and our table chef was great. If you have a family event or just want to meet new people I say visit here and enjoy.

We love the food at this place! The atmosphere may be a little dated compared to Kobe Steakhouse but the food here is much better. In addition, kids eat free on Tues and Wed per paid adult. Plus I am happy that they have a good variety: shrimp, steak, fish, chicken and even tofu. There’s something that will keep everyone happy! I love that the chicken here isn’t dry (seems to be normally at other places). My husband likes the fish, kids love the steak and shrimp. I like tofu with my fried rice. We are regulars and will be back!

Stopped by to celebrate my sisters birthday. The MOD, Jeremy, was awesome! Thank you so much for taking care of us!
Dinner was delicious! Great service all around!

Came here once, The food was alright. I personally prefer Kobe’s. I may come back to try again.

My wife and I used to come here all the time. We never had a bad experience here, I always got steak and double fried rice. All the chefs here are amazing and very funny.

We LOVE this place! We take my son to Japanese Steakhouse every year for his birthday and for the first 10 years we went to the competition. After some bad food, so-​so atmosphere and chefs, more than once we decided to try this once. We’ve come here every year since. The food is always excellent, steaks done perfectly every time for everyone and salmon was delicious!!! The chefs are wonderful and entertaining. Service is always tops! Lots of different combinations to choose from. This was the first year we needed to accommodate a gluten allergy and they did that awesomely while still maintaining the yummiest meals. We were all so happy with our dinners and night!

This place is awesome. Yesterday was my first time going to Genji. My boyfriend took me there as a surprise date. We’re already planning our next visit lol. The food was delicious, and the style of having it cooked in front of you is entertaining. The staff was friendly & attentive. The fried rice… I don’t even eat fried rice. But a bowl of it from Genji, yes! I had the steak & shrimp. Everything was prepared well, fresh, not overly or under seasoned. If your reading this wondering were to go for dinner. Put the phone down and head to Genji’s!

YUMMY! I had a blast here! WE had great drinks and it was so much fun with the chef! The food was wonderful! I will be going back!

Hostess was friendly. Service was quick. Chefs were amazing. The quality of the food here is high and dinner is entertaining. 5 stars.

Made reservations 2 weeks ago have been waiting an hour to be seated terrible customer service and seating sucks.

I always get my hopes up about asian food places in Omaha. Me and my friends were looking forward to celebrating her birthday, and decided to give this place a try. While the experience itself was fine, the staff: friendly, the food was a disaster.
Not only did they use at least 6 tablespoons of butter with each serving of meat. Everything was SO salty. We couldn’t handle it and we were gulping down water as fast as possible. They used this prepared sauce that came out in a squirt bottle for every single thing: the veggies, the meat, the fried rice. Oh my gosh. Just too much salt!
The chef also added salt to all of the ingredients when cooking in addition to the already salty soysauce in the squirt bottle.
In addition… they make you do the shrimp catch in the mouth thing. I really preferred not to do it. But I was a good sport… it took me 3 tries to get it in my mouth. Note: the chef doesn’t stop until you get it in. So end of story: I left the restaurant with a very oily face from the attempts to catch shrimp in my mouth. Disaster.
Needless to say I won’t be dining here again. Not a good or authentic teppanyaki experience.

SALMONELLA ANYONE?
The cook flipped the raw chicken onto the grill and in the very same motion, with the very same spatula, he served each person at the table the fried rice. ARE YOU KIDDING?
Will never, ever return. Regardless if this was just one cook – one time – that is the very BASIS of cooking. Any restaurant that does not stress the importance of being sanitary in their cooking *especially when it is done infront of the customers* probably has very little cleanliness when out of sight of customers.

Awesome food. Very fun. Chefs were amazing!!!

It’s was a great place food was very great had a blast, price was just right me and my wife

Man this was fun! One word of caution, the sushi options are extremely limited, just a few rolls to pick from and no Nigeri. The cook was interactive and when we finished the manager even came over to say hi. Funny though, if this is your 1^st time here and you want saki, either ask to see the large (or my picture) or be ready to drink. As you can tell, the carafe was half full, or half empty??? :)

Went here last night with my husband and friends. There were 10 of us in total. The service was great. Our service and hibachi cook were both very friendly.
As far as food goes, I was a little disappointed in their hibachi veggies. No broccoli, no carrots, no yellow squash. Just zucchini, cabbage, and potatoes. It was still very good, but it definitely needs more variety and color. I had the sirloin and shrimp combination, my husband had the filet mignon and scallops. Everything was perfect, except the filet mignon. Though still tasty, I believe the way it was cooked left a liver/​mineral type taste and feel to the meat.
If you’re all about the whole hibachi scene, definitely give this place a try. There’s not a lot to do in Omaha, but there are a little gems to be found here and there.
