  • Long line ups, food is not even up to standards of other restaurants. Servers were alright, got free ika dishes but thought that was the only way to compromise for the lackluster quality of dining, and also, the food is overpriced. Sushi was very loose, i picked up with my chopsticks, and the whole thing fell apart, simply not attractive! Only thing that was OK was the cooked food. But Sushi is terrible, They should rename their restaurant to New Generation Cooking...

    This restaurant is not recommended at all!

  • Order: Salad Roll, Beef Sukiyaki, Maki-set

  • Was really stressed and needed a protein fix, so I decided on sushi.

    Very quick seating, then my order was taken and off we went.

    Oshitashi was OK, I've had better dipping sauces elsewhere but it certainly wasn't awful.

    Sushi was good, not top end fish but very good and the rice was nice. Salmon handroll was a bit boring (just chunks of salmon and rice), but what did I expect in a combo meal?

    Service was the standout here, quick service, removal of plates when finished, and even a complimentary bowl of ice cream at the end.

    For what it is (one of many sushi joints in the Annex) it's one of my favourites.

  • Order: Sushi combo 2, oshitashi spinach

  • I was told this was one of the best sushi places in Toronto. I must disagree. People often say sushi in Hamilton isn't good, but it's WAY better than what I was served here.
    I was really excited to try the vegi rainbow roll, but I found it sort of dry and boring. The service was 'ok'.

    Go to Oishi Kada in Kensington Market instead.

  • Order: Vegi Rainbow Roll, Avocado Roll, Yam Roll

  • SO after deciding what i wanted, i went with the 20 dollar new geno bento box. When it came, The sashimi tasted real bad and usually i can finish about 10-20 pieces no problem.
    The sashimi had a very weird taste and i DID NOT enjoy it.

    The pieces of sushi i got in the bento box was was cut so thick i could not even fit it in my mouth. Too much rice.

    The service was alright, although i had to keep asking for water.
    The manager was very nice and kept telling me that my box would be there soon, but it didn't come for a while. Everyone at the table was half way done before i got my meal.
    I don't think i would go back to this place. There is a better sushi place in Kensington market.

  • Order: New Geno Bento Box. (mostly all raw fish)

  • So I have been visiting New Gen a lot lately, it is one of my favourite places to go, but i have a small criticsm. The space is crowded and there is a table right beside the kitchen which i get sat at sometimes, this also makes the restaurant very hot and sometimes uncomfortable when there is a lot of people. (there is always a lot of people). But other than that the food is plentiful and cheap, I will continue going untill i find a more spacious place!

  • Order: Bento box, avocado and asparagus rolls
