First visit: Had a reservation and were seated immediately on a busy Saturday night. Service was prompt and efficient. Ordered sushi, noodles and a wok vegetable rice dish. The noodles and rice dishes came out first. Our server apologized for the sushi being late due to it being a busy night however it came out about 5 minutes later. The noodles were very good - pork broth was light and favorable with a nice mix of veggies and mushrooms. The large piece of pork belly was delicious if maybe a bit difficult to gracefully eat. The rice dish was also good with a pleasant ginger flavor but maybe just a bit salty. Both dishes were generously portioned. The tempura shrimp roll was nicely presented and was excellent. All in all a very nice dining experience and we would definitely return.

Man I don’t know what a lot of these reviews are talking about. This was the best sushi experience I’ve ever had in Cleveland, by a mile. Spoiler - it’s not cheap. And why would it be? Do we live on the ocean? Some people…
Chef Lee was awesome - chatting with us casually and curating an incredible nigiri selection . Wait staff was great. Super fresh offerings, sushi rice was seasoned perfectly, maybe ONE complaint was the miso soup was a bit low on flavor, but truly 5/5. Hope this stays around a long time. I’ll be back, soon.

Very nice, food very good, only disappointment was Romen bowl was luke warm, asked if they could microwave it and said they dont have a microwave but could remake it. A restaurant that doesnt have a microwave...hmmm? Would return.

I’m not even sure where to begin. We had a fantastic waitress, however the food was terrible. We order the pork ramen, yakisoba noodles, and assorted sushi plates. The broth tasted like water with instant ramen packet. It was pretty flavorless. Additionally, the sushi, took 3 hours to make it to the table. With the Dante name attached to this establishment we expected a certain level of culinary excellence. Needless to say this expectation was not met, not even by a long shot. The sushi was alright, but for the price and wait not worth it at all. I would not recommended this place to anyone, rather I would suggested other well established sushi places. For that reason I regret having to give this place 1 star. Do not waste your time and money with other option that are so much better.

Sushi was good, everything else was not. Oyakodon was not very authentic and tasted bland. Ramen was awful. Noodles were soggy and no better than maruchan. Broth was super salty and tasted nothing like real tonkatsu. Lighting inside of restaurant was too dark. Our table was uneven.

We were first time diners. Our server Peatro was very friendly. When we asked about the oysters he did recommend them. However he failed to mention they had jalapeños on them. They were way too spicy to eat. Our second item, the sushimi platter was delicious! My drink, the figgy pear was just ok. My husband liked his Old Fashinon.

I was at GOMA for a party and it was ok. Small space in the basement for a party but it was ok. I will be back for dinner or happy hr service and update my review.

Our waitress was very good. Kind, fun, and knew what to suggest. The food and drinks were excellent. It was a very enjoyable evening.
Patrick
Great service, good sushi, fairly expensive and very loud (crowd noise and music cranked loud - hard to talk).

Way to go Goma! Making the Land even greater than it already is. Food was fabulous, presentation was top notch and Calista (@bar) made the evening that much more chilled, knows her drinks and the food inside out. Domo Goma!
Pietro was our waiter. He made excellent suggestions very helpful. Food, service, atmosphere was amazing!

I don’t even know where to start. Goma Sushi might actually be running a government experiment because there’s no way food should taste this unreal. Chef Zach isn’t a chef — he’s a sushi sorcerer in a Cleveland disguise. I ordered a roll and it came out looking like it had a trust fund and a skincare routine.
The spicy tuna punched me in the face in the best possible way. The crunchy shrimp had the audacity to make me close my eyes mid-bite like I was in a music video. My server kept asking if everything was good, and I just laughed because there were no words left in English to describe what was happening.
At one point Chef Zach looked up from the sushi bar and smiled. My soul left my body for a second. I think I ascended.
I’ve eaten at fancy spots from Denver to D.C., and none of them made me feel like I just witnessed divine intervention wrapped in seaweed. Goma is chaos, joy, and pure flavor therapy. Five stars. No notes.

Not impressed. Service was bad. Food took forever. Sodas were completely flat. There were rubber bands left in our food.
