Best sushi in SA!

by KillTheLights

I've eaten at many sushi places in San Antonio and this is by far the best. I've eaten sushi on the north side where all of the yuppies go in their fancy dress, but this place kicks them out of the water. It's SUPER fresh, tasty, and at a good price. The atmosphere is relaxing, and the noise volume is low so you can actually talk and enjoy the whole experience. Unlike Sushi Zushi on the north side of town. Chef Goro is always there to greet you and offer advice if your not sure what to get. Believe me!! You can get whatever, however you like. The menu is simply a guide. It's the freshest seafood I've had in town.

Wonderful Place!!!!

by jessiej28

GREAT RESTURANT! Everything about Godai Sushi is wondeful. Great atmosphere and can pretty much squeeze you in anytime. My boyfriend and I came in at its busiest and they seated us right away. The service is really great and very attentive. But the sushi is simply amazing and also very well presented. I recommend the Alaskan roll and the Crunchy roll. Also a good place if you dont like sushi! My boyfriend does not eat sushi and he ordered the chicken terriaki and LOVED IT. I will definatly be returning.

• Pros: Good food, service and atmosphere!
• Cons: A little pricey

Only Place I go for Sushi....

by jeninsa

I have tried other sushi places and really have no complaints, but when I am in the mood for a "sushi fix', I keep going back to the best of the best. I found this place right here on this site and I followed everyone's advice. Everything is great about this place. The food is fantastic, the service is exception and I have never have trouble finding parking. So far my favorite sushi roll is the Joanna's Roll, but I also try something new everytime I go. Definitely expect a little bit of a wait if you get there later on Fri or Sat, but it is well worth it. Enjoy!

• Pros: The food and the service is excellent
• Cons: None...absolutely none.

One of the best restaurants in the city

by rgltx7

The longhorn roll at Godai has to be one the best things I have ever tasted. This is a fantastic casual restaurant, try to go at off hours, because it does get crowded.

• Pros: The sushi

You Must Come Here

by jsmith2010

I am an avid sushi consumer and it is hard to find a great place that is consistent. The food is amazing! I highly recommend the Alaskan Roll; it melts in your mouth. It is also hard to find a sushi place that offers you miso soup and cucumber salad that is free (most places make you pay for each). The best seat in the house is at the bar. I dont recommend that you come late on a Fri or Sat, they usually get really busy. However, I think it is worth it to wait in line if you do come in late! Goro is amazing and friendly and if you come there often enough he starts to know your order. Great Service and good food.

• Pros: Fresh fish & seafood, customer service, parking
• Cons: N/A

Bad Service, Mediocre Sushi.

by college007ck

Sushi is mediocre and too expensive for what you get. I will pay for good sushi, but that is not what you will find at this establishment. Service is extreamly slow, it took over 45min to just get a refill on our drinks. I have been several times with the hopes that the last time I went was just a fluke. Nope, same bad service and mediocre sushi.

• Pros: Close to home
• Cons: Bad Service.

GO TO SAKE!

by vajenna

Sushi was awful. Fish was not fresh. No ambiance-looks like a barbeque joint. Took forever to get pur food. Too expensive ~$40 for one person!

Best sushi in town

by klberndt

For sushi alone, this is the BEST place in San Antonio. The menu was extensive, the server knowledgeable, the specials interesting. And the fish! Oh, the fish! Tender, moist, fresh. The sushi was absolutely perfect. If you are in town and looking for sushi, this is the place. They even have (gasp!) cloth napkins. Sounds trivial, but every other place just had paper. I live for my little luxuries, and Godai is it.

• Pros: sushi
• Cons: location

The best Sushi in San antonio

by thrndrose

Being from Miami , living on the ocean, and having a close intimate knowledge of most things japanese... I have to say that this is THE BEST sushi in San Antonio! I wish he had Conch... but I'd probably be one of a very few eating it anyway! :) The price is very affordable and it's a very fun atmosphere...I eat there when ever I get a chance!

• Pros: its all pros
• Cons: theres no ocean near by

Not All It's "Rolled" Up to Be

by groffman

I have been searching all over San Antonio for more outstanding sushi restaurants. After hearing about Goro and his sushi, I must admit I was very disappointed in Godai. The sushi lacked imagination and the gyoza was extremely lack luster. I will not be returning to this establishment and I love sushi.
