“I preface by stating that I'm a private chef and have very high standards when it comes to restaurant food! Goshi is our absolute favorite sushi (on the central coast and beyond)! The fish is melt-in-your-mouth fresh, and each dish is perfectly balanced. It's always, always busy ~ so book a table far in advance! What may be lacking in ambiance is made up for (and then some!) in flavor! Our favorites include: Albacore Tataki (my husband and I used to fight over this dish, so now we each get our own!), Garlic Chip Roll with side Eel Sauce, Halibut Tempura Roll, Pork and Shrimp Dumplings, Miso Soup & Salads.“

“Great place for family dinner. The kids were happy coloring with provided crayons and the waitress was happy to help them with chopstick cheaters (plastic apparatus placed at the end to turn them into tongs). They loved the Ramune marble drinks and there was a fair selection of flavors. There were plenty of non-sushi options too.The udon is great but I love the special cut rolls. The miso soup is tasty and the edamame is great too.The ambiance is better after they painted the ceiling and the bathroom is always clean!Parking: Usually easy to find parking and I appreciate lights at night.Kid-friendliness: The kids“

“This was my first time there and it was good , nice atmosphere and plenty of Choices on the menu . I had the poke bowl even though it was good I felt the tuna was not very fresh almost tasted like it was frozen . Not really what I expect from a restaurant like this . My partner had one of the noodle bowls and that was absolutely delicious enough for two people no doubt . Our table was very wobbly and not very comfortable . They had complimentary lemon water and cucumber water which as absolutely delicious ! I definitely would come back again and try some other items on their menu“

“Omg. That was a lot of food I got. The sushi rolls are pretty big… nothing like the ones I get in LA, and prices are reasonable. They are also open until late. I got two sushi rolls and ramen. I enjoyed the food… Their Thai tea was SUPER FIREEEEE!“
