When our schedules fill up and our stomachs feel empty, snacking is how we manage to get through those seemingly never ending time periods between meals. Snacks are quick and easy; and now that the food industry has seen it on the rise, they’re taking notes. Snacks are no longer just about convenience, instead, they’re being made with fresh and high-quality ingredients. Genji Sushi has been one of the food providers who saw this trend and let their imagination run wild – resulting in the recent opening of Genji Izakaya. Genji Izakaya is fast casual spot serving up tasty Japanese tapas, or “Japas”. Their menu includes items such as sushi tacos, mini ramen bowls, and Bao sliders. Located in Columbus Circle, it’s the ideal place to sit down for a quick bite alone or share these small plates with friends. Check out this article by Bret Thorn of Nation’s Restaurant News that discusses this phenomena more in depth.

Genji Izakaya is located in Whole Foods Market at Columbus Circle and is open from 12pm-11pm. Whole Foods Columbus Circle is located at 10 Columbus Circle, New York City.
