The Goblin has excellent decor and is very clean. The staff is very friendly, the music is cool and the atmosphere is welcoming. I had take-out but I think next time I’ll dine in. I ordered the penguin platter, and every thing was great. The owner is really friendly and you can tell the he take pride in his establishment and it shows in all aspects of this place. I give it a 5/5, and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys sushi.

First time here with my daughter. We love sushi and nobody else at home does, so we get it together. At first walking in we were very impressed everything looked super clean and the atmosphere was on point. Greeted right away and they explained how the menu is and it was very easy to understand. Now the sushi..... was freaking incredible!!!! If you haven't tried this place you're missing out! We got 4 rolls and edamame plus the seaweed salad. Everything was exceptionally fresh and made right in front of us. We found our new local spot and will be back often!!!!!

My wife and I came in on a Friday night an hour from closing and sat at the counter opposite the chefs. We got a few rolls, a salmon rice bowl and a panda rice ball. The fish was fresh and delicious and the chefs made friendly conversation with us and asked us how the food was. They even gave us a few extra pieces of extra fatty tuna in the salmon bowl. Make sure to try the baked rolls, you won't regret it. We're going to bring a friend and order the tray next time. Incredible value.

While the rice is very fresh and soft, the sushis fell apart very easily! Their rolls were decent. The nigiris were just ok. Would recommend torched salmon over salmon nigiri as the freshness is lacking. Service was amazing and the restaurant was very uniquely decorated.

We absolutely love The Goblin. Best sushi in the area by far, and because we go here so often we've gotten to know the people who run it and they are so great.

Goblin is phenomenal. Staff and food are amazing. If you have a bad experience here, you are the problem. Stopped in because of the reviews, but now I'm going to keep it as one of my secret pocket restaurants for when I need to relax and enjoy amazing sushi.

I loved this place! The decor was different from most sushi restaurants with colorful and fun vibes. The chef was great and made a little something special off menu for my daughter. SUSHI AND SALAD WAS GREAT! I got a salmon roll and added to it to make more complex on flavors I like and I also got a salad with a different take on dressing not your usual ginger dressing but vinegars and delicious I recommend!!

Sushi here is simple and delicious. The menu is small and not complicated by a bunch of crazy combinations and weirdly named sushi rolls.
Their Goblin Salad is something special and sweet and umami and avocado-y perfection.
