Sushi here is impeccable. The service, excellent. Also the atmosphere was wonderful, they had a great playlist going! I got the ceviche roll and my step mom got the longhorn roll. The rolls came with a salad and miso soup. We also got gyoza and a seaweed salad, both delicious. Honestly you could randomly choose any roll on the menu and it would be fantastic.
The miso soup was pretty good. I really enjoyed the three rolls I ordered but I couldn’t finish them. The longhorn was definitely my favorite, and found the A&M to be a bit dry, it didn’t have enough sauce on it for me but everything else was pretty darn good.
I have been going to Godai for almost 20 years. The owner is one of the kindest, hard working, caring people you will ever meet! The food has always been fresh and delicious! The staff are always friendly and happy to make suggestions. You can't find a better sushi restaurant. My wife is from Japan and she gave it her endorsement for a great meal as well! I really can't say enough about this restaurant. Highly recommend!
As much as I want to gate keep this place, it deserves recognition. This is absolutely my favorite sushi place ever. Miso and salad come complementary, rolls are huge and fresh, and the service is amazing. Everything is priced right, too! My usuals are the bagel roll, unagi roll, and tuna hand roll. They also serve a load of other dishes here that can be paired with a huge variety of wine. The owner, Goro, and the sushi bar chef, Vivi, are also my favorite people ever. They are so kind and personable, and it just makes my day talking to them. The rest of the staff is amazing as well, and it’s comforting to walk in and see familiar faces. I also love the live music that the spot offers and the cozy, chill atmosphere. Definitely stop by!
If you want to have authentic Japanese sushi, this is the place. Very fresh and good food for decent prices. Love it and definitely would come back.
Came here again after a great first experience a few weeks ago. This place has really good food, especially any of their sushi rolls.
Tom’s Special Roll 9/10 - Yellowfin Tuna wrapped over the roll with Avocado and thin sliced lemon. Very good flavor that I highly recommend.
Salmongonzia Roll 8/10 - very good roll that looked amazing as well.
Calamari 6/10 - heavy breaded, but the flavor was great.
Spring Crab Rolls 9/10 - these things are absolutely amazing! Never had rolls like this!
Atmosphere 7/10 - nothing fancy, just focus on the food.
Service 7/10 - service was great, just a little slow is all.
Overall 8/10 - definitely a must try for Japanese fare.
This place is a hidden gem!! Very small but nice restaurant, clean restrooms and friendly staff. Huge menu with lots of choices and even a good alcohol selection as well.The food was absolutely amazing and delicious that my brothers and I can’t wait to go again. Only complaint from my brothers were about the waiting staff did take long at times but who cares when your stuffing your face with these amazing foods. I would recommend this place to anyone and have them recommend it to everyone! Sushi rolls can add up in price also.😎
Best sushi 🍣 in San Antonio hands down!!! We celebrated a friend’s birthday last night and everything was so fresh and tasty! I woke up wanting more after being stuffed last night! Can’t wait to go back! I just wish I took more pictures!
It was our first time today at Godai. It was all around just amazing. Our waitress was the sweetest! The Food was outstanding! We definitely will be back!!!
I can't say I was expecting much when I heard we were going to sushi in San Antonio. And the outside of the building didn't really instill any confidence. But boy was I wrong - reminder to self: don't judge a book by its cover.
The interior was no frills, yet charming. The food was delicious. And the service was amazing.
Would recommend and go back in a heart beat.
