The Restaurant at Genesis House offers an exceptional culinary experience featuring distinctly Korean cuisine. The seasonally changing menu transports diners to the heart of Korea, delivering beautifully balanced flavors and unique local and imported ingredients that not just satiate the appetite, but stimulate the senses.

For the duration of the STARSCAPE installation at Genesis House, the exhibit will close to the public at 7PM and restaurant guests will have exclusive access 7 PM to 10 PM. Diners will be escorted directly into the exhibit at the end of their meal. Guests with daytime reservations will have the opportunity to bypass the public queue after their dining experience. Reservations are highly recommended, and a minimum food & beverage purchase of regular menu items is required.

I’ve been raving about Genesis House since it opened, and it used to be one of my favorite spots. I’ve even been to the Connaught Bar in London, considered the #1 bar in the world, and honestly, Genesis House was right up there for me. I loved their seasonal cocktails and food menu—it was always an incredible experience. However, after my visit this past weekend, I was deeply disappointed. They’ve changed the chef, staff, and bartender, and unfortunately, it shows. The new food menu lacks the same quality and creativity, and the cocktails just don’t compare to what they used to be. It’s heartbreaking to say this because I’ve been such a loyal fan, but I don’t see myself returning. The magic that made this place so special is gone.

Service staff, ambiance, and food is fantastic, but management is extremely lackluster. The front of house managers struggle to complete relatively straightforward tasks expected from restaurant operators - issues include (i) difficulty using OpenTable-provided rewards, (ii) double charging on a credit card, and (iii) inability to provide a system-voided receipt. I expected better from a restaurant operating prix-fixe menus at $60+.

Food was not great and service was not great. Restaurant was basically empty and yet it still took time to be served

Genesis House is a gem! It is tucked above the Genesis showroom but the space is very spacious and beautiful. My friend and I went there for lunch on a Thursday and it was so nice and quiet unlike some restaurants where you cannot hear yourselves talk. We opted for outdoor seating since it was a nice day and feared that we may not get enough attention but our server (Nick) was very attentive and helped us through the process of deciding which dishes to have. We went with a la carte menu and shared several plates which was a good amount. The food was delicate Korean and we enjoyed everything. They had a vast selection of teas and the tea vessels were hand made and added to the whole experience. (Everyone there was very kind and friendly) Highly recommend!
