Master Critic Review
Go Sushi
8.1
Go Sushi is a late-night Japanese spot on Grand Street that turns out a wide range of classic and specialty rolls at approachable prices. It’s become a local fallback for fresh California rolls, party platters, and naruto-style cucumber-wrapped rolls when most of the neighborhood has already closed.
Must-Try Dishes:
325 Grand St Roll, Go Sushi Rolls, Salmon Naruto

Value: 8.7
Service: 7.8

What makes it special: A neighborhood workhorse for affordable rolls and late-night sushi cravings.
Who should go: Night owls needing solid rolls after bars and shows.
When to visit: Late nights between 10pm and 1am when others are closed.
What to order: 325 Grand St Roll, Salmon Naruto, a 6-roll party platter.
Insider tip: Use the naruto section for a lighter roll lineup when you’ve already had a big night out.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; generally easier after 9pm but can be tight near Grand St on weekends.
Dress code: Casual—hoodies, streetwear, and late-night bar attire all fit the vibe.
Noise level: Moderate; there’s steady takeout traffic but you can still hold a conversation at the small tables.
Weekend wait: 10–20 minutes depending on takeout volume; late-night (after 10pm) is usually immediate.
Weekday lunch: No wait; mostly grab-and-go traffic with fast turnover.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Good range—avocado rolls, cucumber rolls, AAC, and veggie naruto options.
Vegan options: Limited but workable—simple veggie rolls and cucumber-wrapped naruto without sauces.
Gluten-free options: Moderate—naruto rolls and basic sashimi avoid gluten, but soy sauce and some sauces contain gluten; request GF soy packets.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if the date is extremely casual—this is more of a quick, late-night sushi fix than a setting for atmosphere-driven dining.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—Go Sushi does not take reservations and usually has open seats, especially after 9pm.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for older kids who enjoy sushi; seating is limited and the space is small, so strollers or toddlers may be difficult during peak rush.
Best For
Better for: Quick, inexpensive rolls late at night when most sushi spots in the neighborhood have closed.
Skip if: You want premium fish, omakase-level quality, or a sit-down experience with ambiance—try higher-end LES sushi bars instead.
