    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+.

    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!
