Gochi Japanese Fusion Tapas

Seating: Some seats are traditional sunken seats where it requires taking shoes off. Mostly for large groups (5 or more) but there are also small group seats like this. There’s no cushion and it’s all hard wood. It’s not very comfortable after sitting for 30 min. Food: Great, everything we had was delicious. Wide variety of dishes in the menu. - Unagi meshi ❤️: all time favorite, best for large groups - cheese pizzas ❤️: I like the yakiniku kochijan pizza more than the Mentaiko one. But both are good, with full mouth of melted cheese on top 🤤 - grilled beef tongue (gyutan shioyaki): tenderness is inconsistent by plate, we still liked it but some pieces are a bit chewy… - hotate ikura carpaccio: pretty good! - tako salad: good - Curry beef tongue (forgot the name on menu. It was either new or special): it beef tongue cubes? I couldn’t taste the beef tongue in this dish. Curry is just regular Japanese curry flavor. I think it’s just ok. - tori kara age (fried chicken): flavor is good but the outer crust is a bit thick - Wafu Caesar salad: nothing special about this salad, unless you love caesar sauce Service: Great, takes out empty plates timely and attentive service 🙂 Atmosphere: Lively, moderate noise

We stumbled upon Gochi by accident and was so lucky to get seated right away even without the reservation. We were told that usually without the reservation the wait could be long. We had mixed tempura and garlic green salad for starters and both were great. For the main course, we had a sashimi omawase and a pan saute black cod, and we were not disappointed. They both were really good. For the dessert we had some ice cream and green tea creme brule were good as well. Overall, it's a type of food that made you feel good after eating. Not just yummy but also feel good like you give fresh, nutritious food to yourself.

The salad was my favorite, and the ribeye was quite good. My friends really enjoyed the meal, but for me the salmon sauce was a bit too strong, the pork belly wasn’t as tender as I had hoped, and the crispy bottom of the clay pot rice was a little too chewy. Overall, there were some nice highlights, but not everything matched my personal preferences.

Been here a few times, and my family and I like this place! It’s pricey but the foods are really good! I usually don’t like meat, but I like the grilled beef tongue here! Really juicy and fresh! We like the salad a lot and ordered twice a night! The fishes are good and fresh. Just be aware that there’s an extra charge for bringing a cake here. But the fee is reasonable and they offer great service! Recommend for group meals! The only shortcoming is - we don’t like the Japanese table setting: it’s not good for elder people since we can’t stretch our legs like a normal seats. But it shouldn’t be a problem for young people.

We had a lovely time at Gochi! A table was available within two minutes of arrival, the food was amazing, Sapporo - refreshing. Hamachi Karpaccio was super fresh and the sauces for all the dishes we tried were top notch! Highly recommend!

Different food items were between good and great. The service was good - nothing outstanding but friendly and not a long wait on a very busy night. It is nice that the space is split into smaller areas. On a winter night the air was very stuffy and it took me awhile to adjust.

We ordered dishes from their vegetarian menu and the flavors were new and refreshing. Unfortunately, the service didn’t quite match up. We waited about 15 minutes before anyone attended to our table, water wasn’t offered, and they nearly forgot our dessert order.
