Originally from Manabí, the Sanchez family found their home in Guayaquil, Ecuador. Their journey eventually led them to the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, where they have been sharing their cultural heritage with you. Much like Manabí, Guayaquil is a coastal city, which is why a majority of the dishes you’ll find here are seafood-inspired. This is why Genesis stands out as one of the select Ecuadorian restaurants in New York City that specializes in seafood. We invite you to savor our diverse seafood offerings, from sopa de mariscos to arroz marinero. And, if you’re lucky, you might get to try our exquisite sopa de viche, a traditional delicacy from the Manabí region.
