GoFish Modern Japanese Kitchen

I recommend the Poke Bowl. You can choose many different varieties. I ordered 1/2 white rice, 1/2 brown rice, chose Red Snapper, spicy ponzu sauce, crab meat, masago, carrots, & pickled cabbage on mine. Ordered delivery a couple of times. Went inside once. Very busy and it's very small & crowded so the food is great but the atmosphere not so much.

This is our absolute favorite place to eat in Tyler! We eat here about once a week. We keep saying we are going to change up what we get but we have all found our jam and usually get the same thing each time. We start with the jalapeño poppers, peppers stuffed with cream cheese crab salad rolled in panko and fried. Then I get the Kingadora roll and my wife and son each get the drunken shrimp and my five year old gets the chicken nuggets and fries. We have talked about trying another place but why when the food is amazing each time!

Went a couple weeks ago and it was great. Decided to go again today and go through the drive-thru this time and wow I am disappointed. The difference is insane, I guess make sure you eat inside if you want to get the left pic and not the right

I know I’m a bit late, but I finally made my way over to GoFish Modern Japanese Kitchen. I technically tried a bite of one of their rolls over a year ago and I wasn’t a big fan. To be fair, the roll had been ordered hours prior, so I didn’t get to try it when it was freshly made. I recently saw a friend of mine post a picture of a sushi roll with thinly sliced steak on top and it instantly caught my attention. I asked where she got it from and she said GoFish. I walked in and placed my order, along with a few other rolls and some of their egg rolls. I’ll start with my favorite one. The Texas Roll. On the inside was a crab stick, cream cheese, and avocado. It was topped with fillet mignon, spicy ponzu, crunchy onion, sriracha, and green onion. This is a roll I see myself going back for many times. The other rolls were the Tornado Roll (deep fried), Fried Calamari Roll, and a California Roll. They weren’t bad at all. The other star of the show was the egg rolls. They were cooked to perfection and the sauce that comes on the side was excellent. There’s many more rolls that I plan on trying soon. If you look at the menus posted below, you’ll see that they have a ton of different options to choose from. They also do a happy hour from 2-6pm, where you can get any 2 “famous rolls” for $9.99 or 3 for $13.99.

Love this place. They have great sushi and the prices are amazing during happy hour. I always go for the fried calamari roll and have always been pleased. I love the moody atmosphere inside and overall this place deserves 5 stars.

I am from out of state, but everytime I have the opportunity to go to Tyler, this is the only place I eat at. The staff was able to help me remember the last item I had on my visit from months ago and it tastes even better than before. For anyone that loves a blend of flavors... I recommend the "Out Of Control."

Me and my coworkers order here every Friday, and it’s honestly the highlight of our week. The sushi is always fresh, perfectly made, and consistently delicious. The rolls come out quick, the presentation is always clean, and the atmosphere is relaxed—perfect for unwinding after a long week. We’ve tried just about everything on the menu, and it’s all been great (especially the Krispy Crunch Roll). If you’re looking for a sushi place that never disappoints, this is it. Highly recommend!

Me and my friends were looking for a great Sushi spot and came upon GoFish after looking around, man did we choose right! I had the Shooting Star dish, side of pork gyoza. Service was immediate, staff were helpful and attentive, the waiter was awesome made sure everything was to our liking. Of three other similar restaurants this was the best tasting and freshest spot. Well worth the price for the quality of food. Will definitely visit again!

Best sushi place ever! Nothing has topped this place. I recommend the shaggy dog roll, it's the best sushi roll ever and no one can tell me otherwise!

In Tyler for business travel and wanted something quick and lighter than steak. I chose the salmon special and it was delicious! I sat at the bar as I was alone, and the bartender took great care of me. I will be going back.

Clean, fairly quick. Food was good. If you want fancy, this isn't it. But if you want quick, clean, and good tasting, this is your place. Restaurant is small so not a place for more than 2-4 in a party.

Huge fan, been going for years huge fan saw advertisement on Facebook for a $30 gift card with a free famous role ended ends on 4 January however and today tomorrow's the third I called the number on Facebook said to call and they said they couldn't do it over the phone, totally disappointed

We ordered the crazy tuna roll(middle), the refresher roll(bottom) and the spicy mango roll ? (Top). Beautiful. Delectable. BUT this place is a hit or miss they be having their days ...

Favorite place to grab sushi! They are consistent with their food. It's definitely a Tyler, Texas gem. Must try if your in town and craving sushi. Well done!!

I've been here 4 times and I finally decided. I don't really care for it. I had a couple of burritos and they're really not. They're just a bunch of rice and some seaweed. Not really all that flavorful. I got the Utah noodles with shrimp. It's okay, it doesn't have enough vegetroubles. I've ordered other things too. I just don't think that this this isn't. Japanese food. I don't know what it is, but it's not Japanese food and I love Japanese food but this isn't it

Great spot with tons of options. Fish is fresh and staff is helpful. Would come back and dine in or do drive thru.

I ordered the Philadelphia roll and the Texas roll to go. The Texas roll was great, but for some reason, the Philadelphia was very very fishy. I ordered that as my safety net incase I didn't like the other, so it was pretty disappointing to not even want to eat it. Great pricing though.

Excellent place. Drive thru. Sushi is great tasting. Inside seating is limited. 3-$12 I believe for happy hour(2-5). Extra ginger and wasabi is a must. Many rolls to choose from and several sides.

Food is AMAZING! I suggest you look at pics to get an idea of what you want. Menu is huge. Portions are moderate. Dining area is small. Bathrooms smell. Should be cleaned more often!! No excuse for that kind of neglect. Service is good. Ambiance is mediocre.

Sushi was great, fresh and lots of variety. Great happy hour specials. Place was packed but staff was friendly and food came out fast. Older building, could use an update but overall great experience. The sushi and the specials are definitely worth the visit! Highly recommend!!

Not from the area but Yelped restaurants to eat on the way back home. We came across Go Fish and read through the reviews, sushi looked good, so we decided to give it a try. You take a menu, find a place to sit, look through the menu, then go back and order your food. Food: we ordered from the happy hour 3 rolls for $13+. The Louisiana and spicy tuna roll were ok. Third roll we got was the katana, which is a deep fried (tempura) with cream cheese, jalapeño but tasted like bell peppers. I wasn't a fan of this roll, it was drenched in oil, and it was not crunchy at all! For some reason it longer for us to get this particular roll. Loved the side seaweed salad, gyoza, and miso soup though! We dined in so I got to see the cleanliness of the restaurant. Not so clean, the restroom was filthy and is in major need of cleaning, the toilet seat needs to be fixed too. I can only hope the kitchen area where the food is prepared is sanitized.

Tried it today. We didn't get sushi but tried shrimp fried rice, chicken egg rolls and chicken noodles. It was hot and fresh. Egg rolls were hot, crispy and not greasy. Everything else was hot and flavorful. Easy parking and easy to find. Lots of variety to chose from. Everyone was friendly and helpful.

Good rolls and good prices. Friendly staff and the Miso soup was to die for. Try they're octopus

Always fresh to order, and easy to order ahead. We love to order in for the evening. These rolls never disappoint!

This is a very small space but it's cute. The food and service were good. It does take awhile but it's because it's so busy. We will be back.

Everything could improve. I went to this restaurant and sat at a table for 10-15 minutes, and not only did servers not approach me, but no one even acknowledged my presence altogether. After 15 minutes of sitting there, I just left.

The food is good and they make a variety of good sushi. The service is good too. The restaurant is always busy and it's obvious why.

Back again! Our 3 sushi rolls were fresh, bright, and perfectly sauced! Delicious! In a drive-thru setting definitely most unexpected. Service was lovely. The cashier was extremely gracious giving best offerings after answering our many questions. Sweet guy! In addition to our sushi rolls. I had to order poke bowls once again! We ordered 2 poke bowls with ahi tuna and spicy tuna. Hubs added salmon to his poke bowl. I was most impressed with the all around freshness of our poke bowls and sushi in Tyler, Texas! So good. I have bookmarked this restaurant for a repeat visit when in the area. Repeat! Repeat!

Ordered a Poke Bowl with Fried Shrimp & pork, white rice, cabbage, carrots and crispy onions and Ponzu sauce in the drive thru. Got home and opened the bowl with NO shrimp and NO sauce! Showed it all on the receipt but was not in the bowl. Very disappointed!

Quick and easy online ordering makes for an easy grab and go pickup! Food is always fresh and tastes great! I really love the customization they offer for different rolls and their crab Rangoons with the sweet chili sauce is fire!

Rolls are so big! Small seating areas but perfect for date night. Delicious soup and food!!

Decent sushi for such a cheap price! They have a drive thru too. Their HH sushi is definitely worth the price. Can get 3 rolls for $15, can't beat that. Must get the Mexican roll, it's one of my favorites! It's not on the happy hour menu though.

Drunken shrimp is super. The spicy girl is very good also. Fresh ingredients, quality, and friendly staff.

What this place lacks in space, it makes up with amazing food and great service! I was in the area and craving sushi, so we decided to try this place out after seeing the good reviews. There was a line of 2 other people in front of us which gave us just enough time to decide on what we wanted. We got California Roll, T-Rex Roll, and Spider Roll. I was a little surprised with the serving size of the T-Rex Roll and Spider Roll; I'm definitely getting my money's worth just by size alone, but the fact that it was so good?? It was probably the 2nd or 3rd best Spider Roll I've EVER had, and it was enough for me to decide on coming back. T-Rex Roll was also very good, and you can't beat a classic California Roll. We dined in and were offered complimentary miso soup, which was appreciated very much; it made the whole meal even better. I will definitely be coming back the next time I'm in Tyler!

Food was great and reasonably priced......no complaints whatsoever from the whole family. The menu had a large number of selections and I`m sure we will be back many more times to sample it again. Service was promt and helpful and everyone was very friendly . Overall the experience was a very good one. If you like Japanese food this is a great place to try.

I've been to Go Fish in Tyler a couple times now, and have enjoyed both experiences. I really liked the beef udon noodles, and the wide selection of sushi. The staff here were friendly, and the prices were reasonable (even when including a generous tip for the great service). The food was ready quickly and it was all very good. I will definitely be returning in the future to try more of the selections.

Small place with big taste! Love the happy hour specials. Best to know what you want before you walk inside so you are not holding up the line. Try one of everything. Only taking off a star because I'm claustrophobic and this place was pushing my limit.

I love sushi and have eaten at many places. This is a true favorite in Tyler. Try the Drunken shrimp, it's fabulous. Prices here are decent and they have a 3-hour happy hour. The menu has many choices and their poke bowl is very tasty and filling. You can build your own to get what YOU like. Well worth the visit.

This place screams "best kept secret" vibes but I can almost assure you, this place is no secret. They are busy, very busy pretty much every time I have come here. The dining area is small but fills up quick and then have numerous to-go orders in process both from personal orders to delivery drivers. Easily the best sushi in town from freshness, quality, value and options. Usually not my thing but their hibachi rice is a high note as well. Love the drunken shrimp roll just as it's a meal in itself however haven't had anything I haven't enjoyed as well. Staff amid it being rather busy and chaotic are super genuine and friendly. Plan accordingly as you can expect a wait or no available seating should you wish to dine in.

If you are like me, you like to consider the source and in this case, I'm thinking there can't be good poke in Tyler so the good reviews were hard to believe. But this place is pretty darn good. I would rather do this than something like a Rudy's bbq that is probably better known. I was surprised that the fish in my poke bowl was very fresh and tasty. The bowl was perfectly balanced with flavor and freshness of ingredients. We were looking for something on the lighter side as we were just finishing up a tennis tournament and this hit the spot. If ever in the area, I would highly recommend.

Let me start this review out by saying how much I HATE fish. Always have. Then, I had sushi here. MIND BLOWING. The fish is so fresh and there's no overpowering fishiness like when I've had sushi at other places. The best part is that they have a seemingly endless variety of sushi options to choose from. They vary from tame and tasty to spicy and superb. The service is amazing, too. Everyone is so nice and accommodating. My partner brought his service dog in and we were given no hassle about it. It's more of a take out place, but there is some seating inside and the ambiance is very cozy and quiet enough that you can actually have a conversation with the person you're dining with. I can't speak highly enough of this place. I'm looking forward to when their sister restaurant, Ichiban Ramen, opens up because if their ramen is as good as their sushi it's going to be to die for! Go Fish also offers great appetizers, sushi burritos, fried rice, poke bowls and more, so if sushi's not your thing chances are you'll find something you'll love there. I'm so glad my partner and I gave this place we've overlooked countless times a chance. You should, too. You won't regret it!

Go Fish is a neat little sushi bar. You order at the counter, and they have a small number of tables for in-house dining. The wait staff delivers your food to your table and honor any request that you have. We had a yum yum roll, a dynamite roll, and a pork egg roll. They were all excellent! I've never seen so many delivery and take out orders before.

I got off the highway to try this restaurant and it was worth my extra 15 miles. It's so good. I tried the Poké roll which is tuna, avocado, mango and crunchy inside and outside is yellowtail, tobiko, jalapeño, chef special sauce and mango salsa (this includes cilantro). I had them hold the rice (as usual) and it was so good. They also gave me gratis miso soup! Yum!

The place was busy on a Friday evening but managed to get a table. My husband and I had the same food except that I ate shrimp in my soba dish. He does not care for shrimp. The roll ordered was great. The fried rice and chicken was acceptable. Unfortunately I got a pretty bad stomach that did not make for a pleasant night or early morning for me. It must have been the shrimp as there was nothing else we ate that day that we did not share.

The ambiance is lacking, but the quality of the sushi is our favorite in Tyler. For takeout, there's no contest. And for dining in, it's worth it, as long as you're not looking to impress others in your party.

What a great place for a quick sushi fix. The moment you walk in to this quaint sushi joint, you're hit with an impressive and slightly intimidating menu... the sheer number of options will likely cause your eyes to glaze over for a bit... but push on! They offer a wide array of rolls, sushi-ritos, as well as poke bowls and some hot menu items as well. Our favs and go-to's are the Maui Waui roll (which has a great combo of coconut shrimp and mango), the Surf and Turf roll (great smokiness of the torched slices of beef paired with shrimp tempura and a spicy Mayo sauce), and the Poke roll. Another perk is the complimentary miso soup, which is also pretty decent. If you love rolls with shrimp tempura, they seem to have a whole lotta them, but try any or a few and you'll leave happy. They also have great happy hour options for some great rolls at reduced prices!

We have eaten, go fish a few times, and the food is always amazing and we have never had a problem with it until today. The young girl that took our order through the drive-through seemed a little rude through the audio, and then as we are about to pull up, we could hear her talking bad about us because she forgot to cut her mic off. we then decided to give her the benefit of the doubt because she might be having a bad day however, when we pulled around to get our food, she had the same bad attitude. maybe she was just having a bad day, but she seemed very unprofessional.

If it was just about the food, this place would get a 5/5 from me. We just finished eating in there and my husband and I are so taken aback by the lack of service we were shown. From the hostess to the runner, people were in a MOOD. Just one example: runner spilled our food onto the table from how she shoved it. Anyways, we ordered the Refresher and Shooting Star rolls along with a poke bowl and a Veganurrito. All were pretty tasty and fresh. Unfortunately due to the behavior and mistreatment here by the staff, we will not be returning and when we crave sushi, we'll take our business to Kawas.

10/10 BEST SUSHI & largest selection hands down! Everything from sushi burritos to poke bowls, specialty rolls and the list goes on. Fresh fish, great quality and good portions. over all clean friendly environment. Some additional pros to this place are: -drive-thru convenience - very quick to receive food

Best sushi place in Tyler! Their rolls always taste fresh and they have lots of variety!

Hole in the wall good sushi bar and bowls. Worth eating at if in neighborhood. Would come again

This place was very good. High quality fish. However there was a issue in ordering. I have a very strict diet and require sashimi ONLY. However when I ordered the sashimi plate it came with rolls too not just the Sashimi. Kind of sad I couldn't eat them and a waist of money. Other then that it was great! I highly recommend. EDIT: Mr. Abi contacted me post review and offered me a free Sashimi plate. Highly recommend this place as they provide exceptional costumer service!!! 10/10

I recommend the fried avocado to go along with any sushi roll. The service is fast and friendly. The only drawback is the small dining area, so consider that you may need to get it to go.

Fresh sushi I like their ahi tuna bowl with white sticky rice very fresh and the offer a variety of different options

The fried rice is the best in Tyler. The convenience of a drive through has made this one of my favorite lazy supper night places.

Excellent service, super fast! Highly recommend the burrito! Everything was delicious

Ordered poke bowl with salad mix. Very disappointed that "salad mix" was chopped iceberg lettuce.
