    Genki Sushi is truly a Wilmington treasure. Their service is consistently warm and friendly, and the food is simply unmatched in the area. Every dish reflects their high preparation standards, making it a go-to spot for quality sushi. One note for patrons: the restaurant tends to be quite cold inside, likely because of the small space and the staff’s need to stay cool while working hard in the kitchen. We’ve learned to bring an extra layer to enjoy our meal comfortably. Despite this, it’s always easy to get a table, and it’s one of our favorite spots for a cozy date night. Highly recommended for anyone looking for exceptional sushi and a welcoming dining experience.

    Genki is my all time favorite sushi restaurant in Wilmington. I come all the way from Oak island every time I’m there, it is a must. Genki has a very nostalgic and homey atmosphere. - Chef Danny consistently executes every sushi order with precision and tasty perfection. His wife (the hostess most nights) is a gem and always lovely to talk to, . Sophia, thank you for always providing me with excellent service and making me feel welcome and remembered. Thank you to all Genki employees for creating such an amazing and enjoyable experience. If you are trying to decide to go to Genki or not, I would 100000% recommend trying it out. You WILL NOT regret it. Don’t forget to bring a few singles for extra caramels too!
