Summary: Operated by Kanmon Kai Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Genpin Group, Genpin is a restaurant specializing in fugu (blowfish) cuisine. With 67 locations in Japan, 4 in China, and 1 in Singapore, Genpin has been dedicated to serving fresh fugu dishes for over 40 years. In addition to fugu, the restaurant also offers eel dishes starting from May 7, 2022. The name "Genpin" comes from words like "mysterious" and "sublime." Established in 1980 as a fugu specialty restaurant in Osaka, Genpin expanded to Tokyo in 2002 and started its international presence in Singapore in 2017, followed by Shanghai in 2019. The restaurant prides itself on using only the finest fugu and eel, with signature dishes like the Genpin Eel Course and the Winter Feast Fugu Course. The interior of the restaurant is modern yet traditional, offering a cozy and elegant atmosphere for various occasions. The menu includes a variety of fugu dishes like sashimi, grilled fugu, hot pot, and more. The reviewer ordered the "Tengaku" course, which included fugu dishes like tessa, grilled fugu, fugu hot pot, fugu tempura, and fugu porridge, all served with a special sauce. The reviewer also enjoyed the fugu sashimi, fugu hot pot, fugu tempura, and fugu porridge, all prepared with care and attention to detail. The meal was completed with a refreshing yuzu ice cream dessert.

I have been to the Hozensji location before, so this time I came to the Higashidori location. As soon as I entered, they asked if I was cold and adjusted the amount of rice for me, which was different from the previous experience. I was debating whether to order takeout or dine in, but decided on the bamboo course because I heard from a friend that the eel rice bowl was delicious and the selection for takeout was limited. The eel in the rice bowl was indeed fluffy and delicious, just as I had heard. The fried chicken that I also wanted to try again from my previous visit to the Hozensji location was included in the course, and despite the many bones, it was still tasty. I enjoyed the eel rice bowl and fried chicken so much that I decided to buy some to take home. I used my shareholder benefits and T-points that I received from a previous reservation made through a food review site, which I had noted in the remarks section when making the reservation, making the payment process smooth.

Please take a look! The thick slices of eel at this place right off Higashi-dori in Umeda are amazing! This course where you can enjoy both blowfish and eel is just fantastic! And to top it off, it's really affordable. The meal starts off with blowfish skin in hot water, so delicious! The blowfish sashimi (tessa), blowfish tempura, and eel rice bowl are all incredibly tasty! The eel rice bowl is served with a refined sauce and the richness of the eel is outstanding. You can choose the size of your rice bowl. It was really great! Definitely check it out! Thank you for the delicious meal!

On a scorching hot tropical night, I went to Umeda. Actually, I had a delicious meal at Genpin Fugu last week, so I brought my family this time. We ordered the "Aged Tiger Pufferfish Gen" course for 5000 yen with all-you-can-drink option. We also added fried tiger pufferfish. The all-you-can-drink option includes one cup of fin sake, and you can enjoy additional drinks with chasers, so be careful not to drink too much. The sashimi was so fresh and bouncy. Although it comes with ponzu sauce, I prefer to eat it with salt. The hot pot is on an IH stove, and it's bubbling like magic. We were excited about it. They also make a delicious porridge for the finale. Next time, when it cools down, I will come back for grilled shirako and the salt ramen at Iida Shoten. I am very satisfied with the cost performance and service, and I will definitely come back regularly.

I searched for a restaurant in Osaka during my trip and found a place with a great atmosphere. The staff were very kind and helpful in guiding us. I am grateful that they quickly served the dishes according to our schedule. I am very satisfied with the delicious food at a reasonable price.

★ [Aged Tiger Pufferfish] Gen-I ordered the cheapest course and also ordered various delicious items individually. The main course I ordered this time was a 5,000 yen course that included appetizers (boiled pufferfish), sashimi, hot pot, porridge, and dessert. I felt like there was a bit less pufferfish, so I added aged bone-in pufferfish & shabu-shabu meat for the hot pot. In addition, I ordered pufferfish tempura, blowfish sashimi, and grilled shirako as additional items. The tempura, in addition to the fresh pufferfish, was also delicious. The blowfish sashimi was a dish where thick slices of pufferfish meat were eaten with special sauce and Chinese cabbage, and it was my first time trying it, but it was delicious with a good texture. The grilled shirako is a must-try delicacy that melts in your mouth due to its extreme softness and was very delicious. Thank you for the meal. The sashimi was incredibly delicious and I enjoyed it, so I'm thinking of adding it to my order next time.

They also have recommended lunches featuring eel and pufferfish, but I think the main focus is on pufferfish dishes. Genhin is participating in the "hometown tax payment" program, and it feels like a high-end restaurant where you can enjoy a pleasant meal.

I found a place where I can eat fugu at a reasonable price. It is close to the station and the staff is very friendly. I made a reservation for a course meal and everything, including dessert, was smoothly served. The tessa and tecchiri were delicious. If I had one suggestion, it would be great to have options other than Dassai sake. I definitely want to go back again!

This time, I used it to celebrate my son's birthday. My son was really looking forward to the grilled shirako, but even after the porridge was ready, it still hadn't come out, so I asked, "Is it not ready yet?" When they said, "After the porridge is done, we'll bring out the last dessert," my son couldn't wait any longer and said, "No, please bring out the grilled shirako before dessert." When they asked, "What is shirako?" I realized that our order hadn't gone through. Since we had other plans, we decided to decline and left the restaurant after dessert. We had chosen dishes with fewer items on the menu to enjoy the grilled shirako, so it was disappointing. The staff apologized before we left, but I couldn't forgive them considering my son was looking forward to his birthday celebration. Well, my son, being the adult, was like, "The order definitely didn't go through!" (laughs) It was frustrating because the other dishes were delicious. (tears)

It was a very nice atmosphere at the restaurant. There were partitions between the tables for COVID-19 measures, but they were a bit wobbly, so I had to use my hands to support them when going to the restroom. The food was also very delicious. I would like to visit again.

I visited without a reservation and was able to enjoy a leisurely meal, savoring the fugu and crab. It was a great restaurant, even though I had previously visited the Genpin restaurant in Minami.

Lunch Special: Teppanyaki Course with Oyster Ramen for 6,800 yen, Grilled Blowfish Course with Salted Noodle for 6,000 yen. Collaboration between Yuigahama and Iida Shoten offers impressive blowfish dishes and noodles. The service is excellent, making it well worth the price. If you're unsure, I recommend trying both dishes. As a ramen fan, experiencing such innovative dishes is truly valuable. Hopefully, other restaurants will follow suit.

My friend, who loves eating, had a birthday this month, so we went to a blowfish lunch to celebrate! (Also, to use up some shareholder benefits haha) At first, I thought about leaving both kids behind, but it seems like they have something like a baby seat, so I decided to bring the 0-year-old along. (I informed them about the baby when making the reservation) My friend was child-free today, so I recommended some alcohol to her, but I didn't drink any myself haha. Now, blowfish is not something I eat often, and the last time I had it was on a tour in Tessa, so I wasn't sure if blowfish was really that great, but oh my, it's so delicious, it's like meat...! (limited vocabulary) It melts in your mouth when you have it shabu-shabu style...! For an extra 300 yen, you can change the Tessa to blowfish sashimi, and it's super delicious, it's totally worth the extra 300 yen! We got all excited about it haha. But, don't you want to take a picture of the Tessa plate? We ordered a course for two people, and you can change one portion to blowfish sashimi, it's amazing, and the staff were so helpful ✨ Also, the way they made the porridge? It was so beautifully presented... I whispered to my friend after the staff left, "They must have practiced a lot, right?" haha. It's a common thing when you're raising kids, but moms usually eat leftovers, right? As for bringing a baby, they did have a baby seat, and the staff were very kind, but it's not really a place to bring a baby, so next time I'll leave them behind. Also, there was no diaper changing table, so they guided us to a vacant seat for that. I thought it was a tatami room, but it turned out to be a sunken kotatsu, which was unexpected. By the way, our neighbor was also using a benefit coupon, and we laughed because it seems like they made some changes to the coupons even though I'm not sure since I got mine as a gift. Even so, we had blowfish and some alcohol in the daytime, and the bill was around 6000 yen, I definitely want to go again ❤️ I think my skin will be glowing for the next few days thanks to the collagen boost haha. There are only a few restaurants that offer lunch, but it might be nice to go after a baby's shrine visit. So, that was Genhin. #OsakaChildFriendlyLunch #LifeWithKids #BabyInReiwa3 #KitaWard #GenhinFugu

This was my first time trying authentic fugu and it was incredibly delicious! The atmosphere of the restaurant was also great and I definitely want to come back. It was so delicious. Thank you very much.

I have been having our annual New Year's party at this place for over 5 years now. Personally, I feel that when I come to this restaurant, it really feels like the New Year has begun. The fugu here is thick and boneless, and you can enjoy a lot of it. From sashimi to hot pot, you can always count on having delicious fugu every year. The almost private rooms and the traditional Japanese atmosphere are also nice. This year, I chose the "Premium Tiger Pufferfish Course for 8,800 yen" with a 2,000 yen all-you-can-drink option. The course includes fugu skin in hot water, thick-cut sashimi, impressive deep-fried fugu, a hearty hot pot, and dessert. The all-you-can-drink option even includes fin sake, which is great. After one drink, you just have to refill your glass yourself. I will definitely come back next New Year. I am full and satisfied today as well. There was a heart-shaped green onion that is too cute for an old man like me, so I will also share that. As I celebrate each year, I feel like my body shape is becoming more like a fugu. This year, I hope to have a body shape more like a beltfish.

Genpin Fugu @ Higashi Umeda A close friend and I had a year-end party at Hankyu Higashi-dori, and we managed to get a last-minute reservation at "Tetchiri"! We ordered the Aged Tiger Pufferfish Gen Course for 4,500 yen, which included: - Starter (Blanched Fugu Skin) - Tessa (Fugu Sashimi) - Tetchiri (Fugu Hot Pot) - Zosui (Rice Porridge) - Dessert We also added the specialty "Butsu Sashi" (raw tiger pufferfish sashimi with ponzu sauce) for an additional 300 yen, bringing the total to 4,800 yen. The Butsu Sashi was incredibly delicious, served with fresh white cabbage and ponzu sauce. The homemade ponzu sauce was outstanding. The zosui served as the perfect ending to the paper pot tetchiri. For dessert, we enjoyed nut ice cream. It was a delightful and enjoyable meal. Thank you for the feast!

When ordering, they asked about dislikes. - Hirezake is a strong alcohol, but I still love it. Mmm~ - W Fugu sashimi premium course included boiled and raw sashimi with a lot of leeks and grated daikon radish, which was surprising and I avoided it. My companion ate it. Fugu tempura is recommended! It was delicious and crispy. Tetchiri - Yuba roll with fugu meatballs - you can have it made into porridge. The dessert was nut ice cream. It was delicious.

I visited this restaurant for the first time using the shareholder benefits. It had been closed for a while due to the state of emergency, but finally reopened for lunch. There were quite a few people enjoying blowfish while drinking alcohol from noon! As expected, good food goes well with good drinks! I couldn't drink alcohol today because I had plans, but I had a very good meal for the first time in a while from lunch. The staff's service was very good, and the presentation of the dishes was incredibly beautiful. Recently, it is common for chain restaurants to look completely different from the photos, so it was like a replica, haha.

☆彡Osaka accounts for half of the domestic consumption of blowfish. Osaka residents love blowfish. At "Genhin," a restaurant known for offering high-quality blowfish dishes at affordable prices, they are celebrating their 40th anniversary with a special offer. Compared to other restaurants, they serve thick-cut blowfish with even more volume in their special course consisting of 6 dishes, priced at 5,000 yen (excluding tax) instead of the usual 7,500 yen. The "Thick-cut Deluxe Course" includes: Blowfish sashimi with dashi, Thick-cut blowfish sushi, Blowfish tempura, Thick-cut blowfish hot pot, Zosui (rice porridge), and Collagen pudding. The blowfish at Genhin is known for its thick meat and easy-to-eat texture. The thick-cut blowfish dishes are exceptional in terms of ease of eating. The blowfish sashimi is wonderfully textured, the blowfish tempura is so big that it's hard to finish, and the thick-cut hot pot is rich in flavor and aroma. The zosui, made with a rich egg yolk and flavorful dashi from natural blowfish, is a delightful way to end the meal. There is also an option for all-you-can-drink for an additional 1,800 yen. This course allows you to enjoy high-quality blowfish dishes to your heart's content. There are many great deals available, but they are for a limited time only.

I went to my favorite blowfish restaurant for lunch. It was my first time visiting during the day. I made a reservation for 4 people using the Hot Pepper GO TO service. We were guided downstairs where we could use free Wi-Fi. We started with some drinks - I had the collagen fruit liquor "Kishu Nankou Ume Soda" for 800 yen. We ordered the "Shogozanmai" set meal for 4 people at 4000 yen each. First, we had the "Yubiki" dish which was blowfish sashimi. We also enjoyed the blowfish tempura, even though it had a lot of bones. The main dishes were "Tecchiri", "Nabe Kawa", and "Nabe Collagen Jelly". Lastly, we had porridge and pickles. The portion was about three small plates per person. For dessert, we had "Nuts Ice Cream" and added the collagen pudding and collagen matcha pudding for an extra 200 yen. The food was delicious, thank you very much. The total bill was 20570 yen including tax (with a discount of 12000 yen from a coupon).
