Had an amazing experience for our anniversary. Servers were on point and never hovered or crowded; very polite and attentive. Food was mind blowing, especially the bibimbap and steak selections we ordered. Overall a must try for any meat-lover, and will definitely visit again.

The best sushi I have ever had. Comming from someone who doesn’t like sushi.

I visited during restaurant weekend lunch. Food was tasty but pricy for the amount of food given. Would come back again during restaurant week.

There is no other place we'd rather go to celebrate milestones and special days and events. Blue Ribbon Izakaya has impeccable service, AMAZING sushi chefs and friendly staff all around. And the food is absolutely wonderful always: fresh sushi, fantastic sake, incredible appetizers... all presented to delight and served with kindness and joy. More than 5 stars always, and we have been regular guests since 2019!

ShabuShabu GEN was a great experience all around! The ambiance was cozy, the staff was super friendly and helpful and the food was next level delicious. Sanjida and Ivy were wonderful as they guided us through how to cook and enjoy the meal. ShabuShabu GEN is admittedly a little pricey but it's worth every penny! Don't skip the Japanese wagyu!
