Genji Sushi
Business Details
About
Sushi in Manhattan isn’t just about raw fish—it’s a quick meal, a solo lunch, or a casual dinner that doesn’t demand a reservation. Genji Sushi fits neatly into that rhythm, offering small plates and healthy options without the fuss. The place is easy to overlook if you’re not looking for it, tucked along Greenwich Street near St. John’s University.
At 270 Greenwich St, the address is straightforward, though the neighborhood isn’t one of those tourist-heavy stretches. It’s the kind of spot where regulars stop by for a quick bite between errands or after work, and where solo diners can grab a seat without feeling out of place. The menu leans toward no-nonsense sushi—nothing overly elaborate, just solid rolls and nigiri that don’t require a second thought.
Lunch and dinner are both on offer, and the casual atmosphere means you won’t feel underdressed whether you’re coming from the office or a nearby gym. There’s no need to plan ahead; if you’re in the area and hunger strikes, it’s a reliable option. For something faster than a sit-down meal but more substantial than a takeout container, the small plates work well.
