Gen Japanese Charcoal Grill

Tucked away in the charming neighbourhood of Ekkamai, Gen Japanese Charcoal Grill Restaurant & Bar is the kind of place you know is authentic the moment you walk in when you see Japanese diners filling the tables, you’re in the right spot. The meats here are nothing short of outstanding. Char-grilled to perfection over smoky Japanese charcoal, the duck is succulent and rich, while the wagyu beef simply melts in your mouth. And while the grill is the star, don’t overlook the sashimi which is fresh, silky, and every bit as good as what you’d find in a top Tokyo sushi bar. I visited during lunch and found the ambience calm and intimate, making it a perfect escape from the city buzz. The staff were warm, attentive, and wonderfully professional, adding to the feeling that you’ve been transported straight to Japan. Overall, Gen is an exceptional spot for anyone who appreciates quality Japanese cuisine, a place where every detail from the food to the service is done with care. A true Ekkamai gem worth revisiting again and again.

A great spot for casual Japanese dining. The grilled items here are especially good and priced very reasonably. The unagi is a standout—crispy, flavorful, and highly recommended. I also loved the beef tongue—tender and delicious, with the chopped green onions underneath adding the perfect touch. One surprising highlight was the pickled vegetables—not your typical side dish, but incredibly tasty and refreshing. Definitely worth a visit.

Delicious Japanese dishes – fresh sashimi, perfectly grilled fish, tender beef tongue stew, and refreshing salad. Great quality and worth a revisit!

“Gen” is a charcoal-grilled restaurant in Thailand that I highly recommend. They serve not only delicious yakitori (grilled skewers), but also fresh and tasty sashimi. It’s a great place to enjoy authentic Japanese flavors!
