Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Japanese Restaurant Goshi consistently delivers exceptional Japanese cuisine, celebrated for its "best sushi in the county." Highlights include albacore tataki, halibut tempura rolls, and fresh sushi. The ambiance is authentically Japanese, and the service is attentive. While reservations are a must, the "quality and freshness of the seafood" make it worthwhile.

    I go to Goshi SLO several times a month and I have always found the presentation and quality of sushi and sashimi to be superior, the best to be found locally. The servers are attentive and knowledgeable. The “noise level” is not a concern, as most customers are sober and serious and the ambiance reflects everyone’s attention and respect.

    Always perfect. No notes. The albacore tataki lives rent free in my mind.

    As always the food was delicious, the fish was very fresh and the sushi rice tasted good. We go to lunch or dinner every month and will continue patronizing the restaurant.

    Goshi is a must whenever I’m in SLO. The fish is so fresh, the ambiance is so authentically Japanese, and the chef is kind.

    Delicious, the sushi was very fresh and well prepared. The service was fantastic. We loved the oysters we had as appetizers. The servings were very generous.
