★★★★☆ 4.0 Chip Wells · Mar 2023

This is one of your high end restaurants in the Monroe/West Monroe area. The duck wraps were pretty good, but my wife really loved the redfish. My pasta was okay. If you are looking for something formal, this is the place to start. Bring your checkbook!

★★★★★ 5.0 Paul Vingiello · Dec 2020

Yes, it's expensive. The service and food is what you would expect from an expensive restaurant though, so it's fine! The wait staff is really good. It's a slow place to eat, but we go for special occasions when we want to spend time talking with family and friends, so we never mind. They have a great wine selection, and will allow you to bring your own bottle if you prefer. We had a great meal. We always have a good time here. Great job Genusas!! Keep up the great consistency. But please bring back the sliced duck breast appetizer!!! It was something I always looked forward to. .

Food was cold. Service never refilled my drink with out asking rarely even came around management didn’t seem to care at all about the type of service given at this restaurant. Maybe it was an off night, but spending this much money and for the quality of restaurant this is. It should have been WAYYYYYY WAYYY better. I was severely disappointed.

Our favorite spot for drinks and dinner… or just drinks. That Cosmo is the best, and the cannelloni is SUBLIME! For a snack get the eggplant appetizer or bread with sauce. BRING cheese soup back PLEASE 🥰

★★★★★ 5.0 Luke H. · Jul 2022

Genusa’s is a remarkably unique and tailored meal for those looking for an authentic Italian dining experience. We went for a birthday celebration and were able to enjoy the bone-in filet coupled with the renowned lemon drop martini. Perfectly cooked, medium rare along with an incredible wait staff made for one of the best meals I have ever partaken in. We had the Italian sausage and eggplant for appetizers which were out of this world. You cannot go wrong and if you have any questions, the wait staff is more than able to accommodate. Highly recommend for any occasion. Don’t take my words for it, Check out the attached photos to really immerse yourself in what Genusa’s is all about. You will not leave disappointed, or hungry.
