ordered 4 special sushi rolls: tuna aburi, caterpillar roll, dragon roll and mango. Overall -- all tasted good. Great thing about caterpillar is lots of avocado and there isn't any unagi. So it works perfect for me as I don't like eel. Mango roll was a tad sour... and couldn't taste the scallops at all. Tuna aburi - good. Dragon roll - good. Lots of double prawn tempura in each roll (except mango and caterpillar roll). A tad pricey. Too bad their menu online doesn't specify what each of their special roll contains. But the actual menu at the restaurant (which also looks new) specify what each special roll contains. So that helps when deciding which roll to order. Wish they would do 10% discount for take out or collect stamps where you spend certain amount so you can get discounts after many frequent visits. Lack of marketing gimmick
Lunch combos are a good deal! For the area this is a good sushi place without crossing north road. Portions aren't huge like sushi cali but quality has been decent the times I've been. I tend to order the gen tart or sashimi tart as a lunch in itself.
Spicy stuff is drowned in spicy sauce though
The Hurricane roll is good, but HUGE!
Service is friendly but can be slow at peak hours so plan ahead!
Also the parking lot is not the best, probably best to park down in the mall and walk up.

Wonderful service, Amazing food and ambience.
Ive always walk past this restaurant and gave it a first try today. As soon as I walked in everyone greeted me with a big smile! I had trouble choosing what I wanted since there was so much good looking stuff on the menu, but the waiter came over and let me know of the most popular items they had and made it easier for me. The kani sake tempura literally melted as soon as I put it in my mouth, its one of the best things Ive ever had in my life! AND OMG THE SPICY AGEDASHI TOFU!! No words for it my friends, just enough of spicy and a pinch of sweetness to go along with it. The rolls i tried were all amzing as well, best sushi in this neibourhood! If you are in the lougheed mall area give Sushi Gen a try, you wont regret. I honestly thought itd be another boring old sushi joint, but the quality of the food is sososo much better than that Sushi California.
10 out of 5 for Sushi Gen!
Hope all you sushi lovers take my advice and go try this place ASAP cus I know ill only be going to this place when Im in the area!
Great sushi, excellent service, and good prices. I've been well over a dozen times since they opened and have always been very happy with the experience.
The rolls are presented simply without many flourishes, but the flavours are beautiful, which is what matters. Their sashimi and nigiri portions are nice and their bento boxes are good value.
A real gem in the Lougheed area. Highly recommended.
Great Food!. The food itself is delicious and presented in the most amazing way, not to mention that the people there are friendly and attentive.
Awesome!. Everything was great! The service was phenomenal and it was the best sushi I had in years!! the perfect amount of rice that was cooked just right! Also our chicken teriyaki came on a sizzling plate and it was delicious! I will visit again
Love the gen tower! awesome customer service :) very friendly manager
One of the best sushi places .
Convenient location, easy parking and surprising kid menu- try BBQ chicken ...
Love it!!!
I went here yesterday and i was pleasantly surprised to find a restaurant in the Lougheed Mall area that boasts such taste accompanied with incredible service. This is definitely a restaurant to go on regular basis. The food was spectacular and different then any other sushi restaurant that I have been to, not to mention the great value for the wholesome portions. I easily rate this the best sushi restaurant that i have been to in the area. 5 stars!
Hidden Gem in Lougheed area!. I went to Red Robin last week, and noticed sushi place next door is under new management. So I went there today with my wife for lunch. Their new decor is very modern and spacious. As you walk in Chef and staff will greet you attentively. Which is always a plus and advantage of going to family owned restaurant. Service was superior compared to my recent visit to other sushi joints.
had sashimi and their various special rolls. Fresh and delicious!!
Reasonably priced and generous portion. As other reviewers already mentioned, it is just next to Lougheed Mall. So you can simply park at the mall and walk over for a meal.
it is a plus especially in this area parking is always an issue.
Attentive service and fresh ingredients always wins my vote!!
Definitely will come back and try their other rolls
