I only got Boba. I had the red bean, which was still grainy and not well dissolved. My boyfriend got a milk tea that was just off. The boba was also a little crunchy inside. However, their food choices (Korean Tacos!) seemed interesting, and they gladly remade my boyfriends drink. At least they have good customer service!

Let me begin with 2 things. One, I absolutely hate that my first review is a negative one, but my experience at Gogo prompted me to create an account and write this. Two, I hate writing bad reviews. It makes me sad. That being said, here I go with my sad review. I did thorough research on this place on Yelp before I visited. I read every review and took most with a grain of salt. You can't please everyone. I knew going in that I should not expect traditional sushi. I had read, though, that service was quick. Because of work, I get exactly 1 hour for lunch, so my husband and I frequent restaurants close to my office. Today, we tried Gogo. The place wasn't packed; maybe 10 people inside. We ordered BYO rolls with chicken and a bubble tea. We took our seat, and waited. And waited. With 20 minutes left before I had to be seated at my desk at work, they called the order after ours. I went up and asked if they forgot our order. Turns out they were out of chicken and had to grill some more. I completely understand that, but it would have been nice for and update on the food. If I had known, we would have changed our order to something faster. We got our food (changed it to a to-go order) and ran out of there. I ate lunch at my desk. In all, it took 30 minutes to get my bubble tea and 40 minutes for our sushi. It was a sad experience. But the rolls were indeed delicious. .

I've been here twice so far, and I like it a lot. I liked the modern design when I walked in the door, and I loved the computer ordering system. For some reason I feel like I have to yell when ordering in cafes, so this is much better for me. The menu makes it possible to order some rolls resembling actual Japanese sushi, but I am okay with an expanded definition of sushi here. The ingredients have been fresh and tasty, which is better than other sushi places i have been in Nashville. I also love that they have Pocky sticks. Yum. There is a large communal table and several bars with stools. Also, my friend loves that you serve the soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi yourself, so if you are a ginger fiend, this is like an all-you-can-eat ginger buffet. Service was friendly and fast both times I was there.

Somewhere between grocery store sushi and a sushi bar is this subway-esque quick service sushi joint. I enjoyed ordering at the kiosk, and having the opportunity to weigh in on the details, e.g., how much salt do I want on my edamame. Options are pretty standard, mostly cooked and no Nigiri, which is a let down. I made the mistake of opting for spicy tempura flakes, were really like rice krispies rolled in chili powder. Ick. Thankfully they were just sprinkled on top, so they were easy to ditch. That said, my roll was pretty tasty as was my salty edamame. Strawberry Ramune drink was a refreshing accompaniment. One roll, edamame and specialty soda ran me a little over $10. Not bad and totally filling.

Greg and the "Rollers" will fix you any sushi combination you want! Even ones that are all Veg, or all meat. Try some different sauces, and wash it all down with some Tarot Bubble Tea. This is the one of two places in town that I can eat sushi due to my food allergies so remember to let them know what you can't have and they will hand roll and cut yours special too!
(5)Alex P.
So happy! They have bubble tea and mochi ice cream! Sake and beer and ramen noodles and build it yourself sushi or house rolls. It's really cool :) My one and only hesitation is that I'm not sure if it's made by an actual sushi chef (professionally trained)... I've never had a bad experience with sushi and I doubt it will happen here, but it's just a thought... the guy that made my sushi looked young and not to be racist, but not Asian. I tried a build your own - seaweed wrap - white rice - spicy salmon - avocado + cucumber - unagi/ eel sauce and dynamite mayo. The sushi was mediocre but not cheaply priced. I wasn't thrilled with it but it wasn't bad. I think I liked it a bit more than I should have because i'm so addicted to unagi sauce and dynamite mayo... If could suggest something to the restaurant, I would tell them to use less vinegar on the rice so its not as mushy... it didn't have the correct consistency. The seaweed was still a little chewy... more than expected. And they were skimpy on the fish.
(4)Becky F.
Dropped by this place yesterday. Saw the word sushi from across the block and thought let's give it a try. The staff were immediately very welcoming and helpful in explaining their menu and ordering process. You can order sushi exactly as you like it and they have a great selection of sauces to top it all off. Can't fault the food. Exactly what I wanted! Thank you
(5)Trista D.
Thoroughly enjoyed lunch at GoGo Sushi. The menu isn't miles long like it is at some sushi restaurants. It made the process easy and, with the electronic ordering and paying system, seamless as well. I ordered the Stop Drop roll, which had salmon, cream cheese, jalapeño, chili powder, jalapeño drizzle, and dynamite mayo drizzle. It was spicy but not so spicy that it made me regret ordering it or muddled flavors. If you don't like spicy food, don't go for this roll though. I also had a peach smoothie bubble tea...AMAZING! It wasn't terribly busy as I arrived shortly after they opened. I noticed some reviews mentioned that it wasn't fresh. This wasn't a problem for me at all. It was clean and the staff was nice. I will be going back to try more! Note: This is good sushi but, clearly, it's not necessarily "traditional." Head to GoGo for some great twists on tradition.
(4)Katie D.
I really love how convenient this restaurant is. I happened to walk in after a huge group, so I waited for a while but the women working there were incredibly apologetic and worked quickly. I had a build your own roll and a pad Thai roll. Unless you are very hungry, one roll is a substantial lunch. I'm excited to try more roll combination there! The drink options include drinks, sake and otherwise.
(4)Becky G.
This place is crap.. I went there once and I'll be sure that'll be the last time. I went with my sister and sister in law and we all ordered bubble tea. First, the teas were nasty! And second, the service sucked! The guy there was a jerk and rolled his eyes at us when we told him we're from california and have high standards on bubble tea. We ended up throwing them away. Never will go again! Ps- Mr Bubbles at the Arcade is AMAZING.
(1)Lauren L.
I really love this place! I usually get it through Doorstep delivery, but have occasionally run in to get sushi to go for lunch or dinner. They have a wide selection of bubble teas, and you can even mix the flavors! I've never had a bad experience in the 5+ times that I've gotten food from Gogo Sushi. Their miso soup is also pretty good, too. I also really like that you can build your own roll instead of having to pick from a sushi menu that's, like another reviewer mentioned, "miles long." Delivery note: I have never had a problem with delivery from Gogo Sushi. They put the sushi in these little to-go boats lined with wax paper and covered with a cardboard lid/sleeve. The little rolls sometimes get a little stuck to the wax paper, but whenever I receive my sushi, it's always cold, tastes fresh, and didn't get thrown all over the place. SPILL WARNING: However, they put soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger in little to-go cups wrapped in plastic wrap. Due to driving around, the soy sauce gets spilled all over inside that wrap. Delivery miso also gets spilled all over, too. I feel that Gogo Sushi at least tries to combat this problem by wrapping everything in plastic wrap- so thank you for that! I just think the drivers don't care about the state the food's in when they deliver...too bad. The teas arrive fine because they have a sealed lid. All in all, I think it's a great place and not too expensive. You're not going to get ultra-authentic Japanese sushi here, but I don't think that really matters. It's delicious and fun- always a great place to try new things.

I was so happy to find a close by sushi restaurant and had high hopes for this place. Big plus is that they also served boba! I know my sushi and was so looking forward to trying a few of their rolls. We ordered 6 different rolls so we could try a lot and the ingredients looked very creative. We also ordered three bubble tea drinks. The rolls were less than mediocre. I don't know if they were having an off day or what but the rice was just horrible. Undercooked and still crunchy. I'm Asian... I know my rice... And if you're gonna serve sushi you at least have to get the rice part right. All the fillings and toppings don't matter if the rice is gross. The guys I came with enjoyed the different types of sushi with different flavors and toppings but I don't think we'll be back. I'm super disappointed because this would have been a great place that was close by for lunch. The boba was good but the tea I ordered didn't taste the way it was supposed to. I kind of feel like whoever their chef is needs to learn how to make proper sushi. Or whoever they had working needs to be trained better.

When GoGo Sushi first set up shop a few years ago, I was beyond excited to finally have another lunch option within walking distance of my apartment. As a self-proclaimed sushi addict, I couldn't wait to chow down on the delicious rolls GoGo Sushi promised to serve up. I've been 4 or 5 times since GoGo opened shop back in 2011 and my experiences have been consistently poor. If you're craving sushi, you're better off heading your local grocery store than to GoGo Sushi. At this point, I've probably tried 9 or 10 different sushi places in Nashville and GoGo stands out as by far the worst. The rice is consistently overcooked and mushy and the raw fillings (tuna, salmon) are more often than not, sparse and tend to taste a bit...off. After several poor experiences with the sushi, I resolved to never return to GoGo...that is, until I saw that they added bubble tea to their menu. I mistakenly thought bubble tea couldn't be messed up, and hey, I'm desperate! After Fat Straw closed, it's been virtually impossible to find decent bubble tea in Nashville. I wish I could forget the 2 times I've had bubble tea from here. Both times I was served a lukewarm, powdery mess, with CRUNCHY, undercooked boba. The tapioca pearls are, at best, halfway cooked - the outer part is soft and chewy, but the centers remain rock hard. Ugh. Would not recommend under any circumstance.
(1)Emily W.
What a wonderful and funky little place! Within walking distance of the hotel and so reasonably priced!!! Loved every bite and sip - Taro Bubble Tea, miso soup, Create Your Own Roll (eel, Unagi, avocado, asparagus, cucumber, white rice, seaweed wrap) - will definitely be coming back during my next trip to Nashville!!
(5)Colin P.
This place is kind of a hidden gem - worth rounding the corner from 21st onto Scarritt Place, and a lot healthier than Satco. A couple of the rolls on their menu are some of the best I've ever had, and the fact that you can make your own is unique. Press a few buttons on a touch screen, and the chefs start working for you - you've gotta try it to really get it. Will be back soon.
(5)Michael T.
The rolls are a bit weird, but if you build your own then pretty much make what you want. I personally get tuna, avocado, cucumber with unagi sauce. They have specials here too sometimes, like Banh Mi sandwich, which was amazing.
(4)Katie D.
I really like the electronic ordering system. There aren't very many raw items, but I usually just get spicy salmon and that tasted pretty good. I had a create your own roll in soy paper and it was very satisfying for one roll. I'm definitely returning and hoping that the Pad Thai roll will still be an option because it looked delicious!
(4)Wufei W.
It's definitely not traditional sushi, bu delicious. People who cannot eat spicy food, be careful. I ordered a commodore roll stating that "please don't make it spicy", but it is still a little bit spicy.
(5)Kiki C.
I recently found out that I have limitations in my diet, as in I cannot eat soy. This is a real bummer when it comes to sushi (imitation soy sauce made from coconut is depressing), but I have found that most establishments are super helpful in letting me know whether soy is an ingredient in a food item or not. I went into GoGo Sushi to simply ask for ramen and bubble tea, asking them if there was soy in the ingredients (you'd be surprised how often soy will sneak into ingredients, especially soy lechitin, so I need to ask). First I asked for ramen, and the guy working said, "no." Then, the girl working with him said, "Yes there is!" Thank god she corrected him. So I go on to ask, "Is there soy in the bubble tea?" He shrugs and says, "I don't know. I guess not. But I'm not an expert." Well, I'm not a customer! Thanks for not helping - I used to be a super supportive customer, but since they're not supportive of my dietary restrictions (I don't even care if I have to change up what I order, just tell me what I can order!) then I will go elsewhere!
(1)Kat F.
This is an excellent place for carry-out. I call ahead and they have the sushi ready in 5-10 minutes! If you prefer to dine in, the space has a nice modern vibe. Everything is very streamlined and efficient, with touch-screen ordering and even a giant beverage dispenser filled with soy sauce. :) I also love that you're able to design your own roll... For vegetarians, I recommend strawberries, mango, cream cheese, and avocado fillings with eel/unagi sauce and smoked sweet chili mayo to top it off. (And this roll amounts to less than $5.) The "build your own" rolls are fairly large-- 10 pieces. And all of the toppings/sauces are free, so go crazy. ;) And finally, they are going to serve bubble tea in the near future-- as an "I don't feel like cooking tonight, let's grab something quick and easy" type of place, it really doesn't get any better!
(5)Dan M.
I had tried Gogo before at a corporate event, and it was bad. I decided to give in-store a try before writing this review. The quality of ingredients is very poor. When I go for sushi, I'm expecting fresh cuts and sticky rice. That's about it. Gogo did not deliver. College students preparing sushi should be a give-away, but the proof is in the taste. The iPad ordering system is clunky for a user interface. The pre-programmed rolls are not the "classics". There are several better options for sushi in Nashville. I would rank Gogo at the bottom. The good: The students working there were very friendly.
(2)Martà M.
Lucky for us, my first trip to Gogo was a quiet one. After asking the poor girl behind the counter a million questions about their salmon, in which she patiently answered (it's Atlantic wild BTW), I finally settled for the Philly roll, and planned to imbibe on a Saporro. The ordering system (via Micro) is a neat concept, and I can see how this would be beneficial during peak times. Although, since we were ordering alcoholic beverages, we were prompted to select the "Pay with Cash" option. It makes me wonder how they would handle this during a rush. After progressing to the counter, I learned they were out of Saporro, so I opted for a Choya instead. The Philly roll was good - tasted fresh. I also sampled the Pad Thai roll, and really loved it had been adorned with cilantro. The feel of the space is great; reminds me of some trendy sushi bars from my days in Japan. They even sell Pocky! The art displayed on the wall is beautiful, all made by a local artist, and is for sale! Major kudos for the recycling station for all the cans and bottles.
(3)Christie Q.
Like the idea of creating your own sushi roll but it is pretty expensive. I have had sushi that is better for the same price. However, I really like their ramen. I have never had ramen cooked for me in a restaurant. I would go back but it will not necessarily be my first pock
(3)Mike W.
The Sushi is overpriced for the quality. I paid $17 for 2 rolls and a drink, getting the cheapest rolls available. It was not terribly great and the soy sauce was not high quality. Eating in, I was not impressed having to fill a plastic cup with soy sauce from a giant dispenser. Instead of slicing the sushi by hand, it was placed in a roll slicing machine that was crank turned. There was no in person interaction at all with any of the staff, since the ordering was done via a touchscreen computer. I enjoy tablets, and thought the ordering experience was really designed better for a wait staff and very unimpressive. I will not be back. Most sushi restaurants already let you create your own sushi combo.
(1)Marshall S.
Sushi was quick and fast, although me and my wife went on a Sunday evening. We each got our own rolls, and followed them with a dessert roll with bananas and chocolate. My roll was good, I believe I made my own roll (which is pretty unique but if it taste bad it's really your own fault). My wife made her own as well. The dessert roll was tasty and unique. Rice, bananas, chocolate...can't go wrong, right? I think if you're in the area you should check it out for a quick lunch or easy dinner.
(3)Katie P.
Best customer service, super creative rolls. Dan is the best. Sad to see him go!
(5)Hoa T.
What do asian pear, jicama, potato sticks, and strawberries have in common? They are some of the add-ons you could put in your sushi here. If you are adventurous or a little kid like me and just wants to throw a bunch of stuff together, this is the place. The price is not cheap but the playfulness makes up for it. They also have a set menu and of course you can create the more common rolls like spicy tuna avocado if you so desire. There are also dessert sushi which I did not try since I'm not a sweet person. I had their commodore roll and the stop drop roll. I prefer the commodore over the stop drop roll since it wasn't as spicy as I expected and a lot more creamy. I also built my own: Escolar (White Fish), spicy salmon, mango, jalapanos in a seaweed wrap with dynamite mayo and eel sauce. It came out pretty good if I do say so myself. Also this would be a good place to go if you are vegetarian or have friends who are.
(4)Nate L.
My girlfriend and I go here all the time. Very Americanized sushi, not for the sushi connoisseur. We love it though. Great sushi, fast service(unless its around 7 when they are busy) generous portions and well priced. Can't complain about much there! The only thing I wish they had is an online ordering system
(4)Jesse M.
In my opinion, Nashville is a great town for sushi. When someone asks me what my favorite sushi in town is, I have a hard time answering because there's a bunch of places I like. Overall, Gogo Sushi is one of my favorites and definitely my favorite concept of them all! The Titan roll is my favorite specialty roll. The soy wrap is outstanding, it's got a nice crunch to it and is packed with flavor! You can't go wrong with any of their specialty rolls, but the Build-Your-Own roll is really where it's at. Today, my fiance created one that went like this: seaweed wrap, brown rice, crawfish, mango, pineapple, cucumber, and jalapeno mayo. Honestly, when she ordered it I cringed. It didn't sound like it would work to me. But it did!! It was my favorite of all 4 rolls we got. Another unique combo we ordered: seaweed wrap, brown rice, spicy salmon, BACON, asparagus, avocado, baby spinach, and wasabi mayo. Crazy, but it worked so well and was unlike any sushi I've ever had. I love how you order on a touch screen too. It's kind of like Which Wich, without the bags and markers. You can take your time ordering and it's super simple. The service is friendly and fast and the restaurant is clean and green. We will definitely regular this spot. The bubble tea is awesome too...try the avocado!
(5)College S.
mlik tea was above average, but $5 for a taro milk tea is way too expensive
(2)Patten F.
Bacon. In sushi. Yeah, it's the least authentic thing ever. Especially when you put in that other authentic Japanese item - jalapeno. I've been to Japan. I like sushi. You will not find this sushi in Japan. That does not make it any less delicious. Gogo Sushi's gimmick is that you can pretty much have an entire dinner experience without dealing with a human being, which is a win for the traditionally antisocialites such as myself. You walk in, there's a menu board, but there's also a touchscreen. On the touchscreen, you order everything. You can customize your sushi to an authentic Nihongo roll. Or you can be like me and bacon, jalapeno and potato up that mother-effer. Then when you've selected everything, you swipe your card at the side and VOILA! All the ordering and none of the wretched human interaction. It's also pretty cheap...you get 9 pieces and they are pretty decently sized, too. They have a fancy sushi rolling machine that rolls everything uniformly, so you don't have to fret when you don't see Japanese men behind the counter. Also, there's bacon.
(4)Sean H.
The ordering system is really cool. It's basically an iPad mounted on a wall that you can place your own order on. Once I figured that out, it was pretty cool. I only got a bubble tea, which wasn't mind blowing. I have heard good things about the sushi, though, and the proximity to Vanderbilt's campus is a big plus.
(3)Catherine D.
-1 star only because I wish they served nigiri sushi so that I could eat something without rice, but I understand that this is just not what they do. Other than that, I love this place. The staff are always friendly and efficient. I can eat my food first
(4)Megan C.
I found Gogo sushi to be a little overwhelming. So much so, that if there were a line, I'd probably feel really self-conscious of my decision making while punching in my own order, getting familiar with the user interface, and trying to get the machine to accept my credit card (FYI, they don't take Discover. Lame). I felt like they didn't have enough 'pre-designed' roll options, and I thought they were pricey for what you get. That being said, the sushi I ate was delicious and I really enjoyed it. I also rather liked their bubble teas, which come in a large variety of flavors. Loved that the wasabi and soy were in the condiment bar so that you can have those and as much ginger as you need. Sadly, access to condiments doesn't really make up for the panic-inducing ordering.
(2)Kel Vin W.
We decided to give it a try for lunch. I applaud the concept of customized sushi in a fast food setting, as this is a chain often found at airport terminals. The place had only 5-6 other customers when we walked in and the food turned out within 5-10 minutes of us ordering at the computer terminal. However, this was one of my worst Japanese meals in Nashville in recent years. Each of us got either raw salmon, tuna or eel in our rolls along with various non-meat addition. Unfortunately, the slivers of fish were so thin that you had to look hard to find it. I'd say they were 1-2mm thin. The avocado was very tough and tasteless, i.e. unripe, so was the mango that one of us added. The "fried tempura crunchies" turned out to be "rice crispies". One of our group added Unagi sauce on top which was the only salvation to an otherwise bland sushi. For the price that we paid on each roll, it was not worth it. Walk down 21st for 5 more minutes and the sushi there is a lot better for the same price of not less. Having lived in Nashville for 10 years, we are regulars to samurai sushi, Ken's sushi and Sonobana. I realize that a fast-food sushi place cannot compare to a sit-down authentic japanese restaurant, but the price and dismal quality of food is a far cry from japanese food.
(1)Sam F.
The sushi here was much worse than the sushi I even bought at Harris Teeter. It is also more expensive than Samurai. I ordered a roll with chicken, and the chicken tasted like it had gone bad. It is also not as appealing to see teenagers use machines to both roll and cut the rolls. Their moto is healthy sushi, yet mine came soggy with gross sauces that completely overshadowed any flavor the sushi should have had. If you are getting sushi around nashville go to Samurai, its about as authentic as you can get in Tennessee.
(1)Lauren S.
Overall: No frills, just quick & easy sushi. Food/Drinks: It's one of those sushi places that doesn't do a whole lot with raw fish... you know the restaurants that use beef & chicken? We bought two from the menu and made one ourselves. I don't think the sushi is bad at all, it's just nothing all that special. The mushroom roll had copious amounts of rice and wasn't all that flavorful, but the spicy salmon was interesting enough to order a second time. I think this would be a good option if you wanted to get sushi with friends who don't eat sushi. Atmosphere/Service: There wasn't anything wrong in this department per se... it was very clean and organized (borderline sterile.) But there wasn't anything particularly appealing about it. You place your order at a computer screen and move down the counter. The only issue I see with the computer is that you can't make changes to the menu options and the employees take whatever alterations you have verbally. This worked completely fine the night i was there because the place was empty, not thinking it will once it's busier. It feels like more of a place to grab a quick lunch, not necessarily a leisurely dinner. Cost: The specialty rolls range from $6 - $9; the "build your own" can add up fast, but it really depends what you put on it. Edamame is about $1.50. Sake was expensive-ish, I think about $12 for a bottle. Tip: Gogo uses a company that delivers anywhere in Nashville! I haven't used the service yet so I can't personally endorse it but... doorstepdelivery.com . I believe the fee is $3.99
(3)Eric A.
This place could be really cool - ordering custom sushi rolls on a computer and paying at the kiosk is definitely a novel idea! Unfortunately, I think this novelty is GoGo Sushi's only selling point. By removing the servers at a traditional sushi restaurant and improving the efficiency - you would think that the money being saved would either be funneled to bring down the price below normal sushi restaurant prices - or into creating better rolls with improved ingredients. Sadly - neither of these options are true. Even though the rolls are made fresh - they are comparable in quality only to pre-made Kroger or other cafeteria style rolls, with prices equal to or higher than those options. The staff was friendly, the restaurant clean, and the food speedy - but not enough to overcome lackluster sushi.
(2)Lisa B.
This place just opened last week and I'm sitting in it now after having my first roll here! It's a simple, fast, casual sushi bar. They don't have a lot of options as far as fish goes (salmon, spicy salmon, tuna, spicy tuna), but I think they're adding more soon. When you come in, you order on a screen - you can have one of their rolls (a couple of standard rolls, a couple of more creative ones) or build your own. I built my own with salmon and some veggies - avocado, cucumber, daikon. Then you choose sauces and things; the wasabi mayo was good. I was worried that the ordering on a screen deal would result in a strangely impersonal experience, but once you get to the assembly line, the chefs chat with you and it's not weird at all. They'll be adding sake and beer soon, but for now it's tea and soft drinks, also a few imported japanese sodas (the ones with the ball floating around in the bottle). In general it's a great place to scratch your sushi itch, but don't expect anything fancy. The fish seemed fresh and was very tasty. It's much better than any of the other dining choices around campus - incidentally, one of the guys working here told me that they're going to start taking the Vandy card soon.
(4)Sean S.
I've been to Gogo Sushi a few time since it opened and the food has always been disappointing. It doesn't taste fresh and I hate the way they serve everything on a cafeteria tray, with the sushi in a paper fry baskets with brown wax paper that the rice sticks to making it difficult to eat. Today I tried beef ramen, a new menu item at Gogo Sushi. The noodles were well cooked but the beef tasted metallic and was over done, and it was a small portion for $8. I also tried a coconut bubble tea and while it was good, it tasted a bit like piña colada mix or sunscreen. Not worth the $5 after tax in my opinion. I normally go to the Chinese restaurant on West End for bubble tea but the last couple times I've been there they've been out of bubbles but my experience at Gogo Sushi wasn't good enough to make it my new spot. In my opinion there are just far tastier sushi places in a couple mile radius that are a better value.
(2)Cara P.
If you're a sushi aficionado who will only accept the highest level of expertise and authenticity in your sushi--this isn't the place for you. Keep surfing. OK!! Now, the rest of us out there: go to Gogo. It's fun. Their menu rolls are unusual, and you can have a blast creating your own. If you have someone in your group who won't eat sushi because he doesn't eat fish...you can still bring this person along. Among the create-your-own options are beef, bacon, and chicken. The staff are friendly and helpful. I like it that you get your own wasabi, soy sauce, and pickled ginger, because then you can get as much or as little as you want. The iced tea (green tea or black) is unsweetened, and you can sweeten them with simple syrup, plain or ginger lime (mmmm). Is the rice perfectly cooked? No. And they lose points for leaving the shrimp tail in the roll....does anybody really eat shrimp shell? c'mon. Also for being a little sauce- and seasoning-happy...they tend to mug the other flavors in the roll (the sauces in question do taste good though). But I will say this: none of the rolls came apart on me, which is something I can't say for more "authentic" sushi I've had. So please, go with the intention to have fun, and you will. And it will taste good (unless of course you throw together some odd, inedible combination roll, and it's not their fault then, is it?). Next time I'm going to try the asian pear sake. That sounds delicious. But I won't put asian pear in sushi...that's not right.
(3)Meridith B.
The sushi was way overpriced, but edible. They didn't add Asian Pear to my roll, white instead of requested brown rice was included, the avocado was over ripe, and the white fish (my fav) was not in stock. For $9.67/roll w/2 fish and no other add-ons, I would go to pretty much anywhere else.

Ate here twice and loved it both times. The perfect place for quick and delicious sushi and for an affordable price. I was full off one roll. I love the create your own sushi menu. I am an avid bacon sushi lover now. The atmosphere is casual and clean and the workers are very helpful and nice. Don't sleep on gogo try it for yourself. I will be back.

I am absolutely in LOVE with this place, with phenomenal customer srvice and a modern environment. It adds a little fun to your sushi going experience in Nashville. I ordered at the closing of the store and everyone was more than happy to take my order, deliver food to my table and bring any of my additional requests. Very affordable too, I ordered a regular order of sushi, edamame and bottled drink for under ten dollars! It was made fresh and I could've took it to go if I wanted. The manager/owner was very open to sharing my information about the business and its recent opening and the digital order system was a nice touch too! Such a friendly atmosphere and EXCELLENT service! I am loyal patron, for sure!

I really like this place. The atmosphere/decor is fresh, clean, light, bright and youthful and the sushi is really good. My rating is based off of taste, innovation and presentation, i.e., sushi snobs will surely be looking into the grade and caliber of the fish, and that is outside of the scope of my review. This is a casual place, and it's surely not trying to be Goten (nor would I expect nor want it to be). I am always smiling when I'm there, and it lasts until I leave. The mushroom pocky at the "cash" register is hard to resist so, if you are having trouble with that, try the different types of bubble teas. Delicious! And the colored monster straws are so much fun! I kind of agree with the other poster's comment about the build-your-own menu being overwhelming but, as this is 21st in Nashville and not 52nd and Lex at lunch rush hour, I can take my time and it works out just fine.

Found this sushi place the other day when driving around Downtown Nashville. Unlike anything else I have ever seen before. There is a large menu board that shows some of the rolls that they offer as well as the ingredients that they offer for the Build Your Own Roll. My hubs and I picked what we wanted and decided to order. Surprisingly, you punch your order in a little POS station that is right next to the menu board. This is great for me, because I can be certain that I put in what I want and I have a chance to catch a mistake. And, I was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of Bubble Tea in Nashville! I have lived in Middle Tenn for just about 2 years and sadly had to give that up when I moved from Central Florida. The only reason that I docked a star was because of the staff. The young lady that was working was friendly, mildly engaging and conversational. I enjoyed her plenty. The young man, on the other hand looked disinterested and barely made eye contact. Never even got a name of either. I guess this is the downside with placing your own order, lack of human intereaction = lack of customer service. The food was tasty and the drinks were spot on. They have ramune soda's too. I would likely go again, but I would just expect less from the staff. Worth a try!

Great concept, fresh ingredients, and cool designs. You start by ordering at a kiosk, which is great for an introvert like myself... They have side items to choose from, unique Asian drinks, beer, and Sake. Serving bubble tea soon as well. Sushi is ready in minutes, and the proportion is huge for the price. Their roll is comparable to almost two at sit down places for less the price. Can't really complain if your roll doesn't taste amazing, since you're the one picking what's in it! Haha. They provide fresh, tasty ingredients...it's up to you build a masterpiece. First roll I made was good, then I tried a different combination and it was amazing! Or try one of their suggested rolls which are already great. They usually have the game on, or some good music...plus you can even buy some artwork from the gallery on the wall. Just a hip, trendy place. I will definitely be coming back when I visit Nashville again! Oh, and they also deliver though Doorstep Delivery.

Decent sushi with a limited selection of raw fish. Lots of options and you order with touch-screens on the wall. I like the long, center table that encourages fellow patrons to talk, but the place needs to be crowded for it to be effective.

Interesting concept. A modern atmosphere and good sushi. Build your own gives you a lot more options (obviously). The sushi isn't the cheapest in town but it is affordable. A roll and a drink are going to cost around $10.

Owner seems very nice. On a day he wasn't there, however, I saw one of the employees wipe a knife off on a filthy rag and then they turned around and used THAT knife on the sushi they were making. Can't/won't go back there. Makes me gag just thinking about it now.

Love this place, I usually have roll before hitting the gym. The restaurant is unique, modern and has pretty good choice of healthy ingredients. Trying to lose 15 lbs.

Gogo Sushi is a new little place that I happened to come across recently. I have mixed feelings about it and here is why: the decor and the concept are really cool: touchscreen ordering, make-your-own sushi rolls, and modern decor all come together to make a great experience. But the bad: the sushi is expensive for what it is. A roll and a bottle of water are going to be 10 dollars easily. The sushi is good, but not exceptional. It would be nice to see this place stay in business because they could offer Nashville a great little sushi option, if only their prices were more reasonable. Chances are you are going to leave this place feeling like they have a lot of potential. You are probably also going to leave hungry and disappointed.

fast food sushi without the guilty yumminess of fast food.

We stopped at GOGO when passing through town. The ramen was solid and they have bubble tea which always makes me happy. If there was a 3.5 button I would rate GOGO a 3.5. The people were friendly, the food was fine but the experimce wasnt anything special. Having said that, I woud go back if I found myself near the university craving ramen.

Smores roll was AWESOME! Sushi rolls were huge. Big downside was to-go packaging in paper/wax paper containers and all rolls stuck to the paper and fell apart when removed.
(4)Rosalind A.
Great place to grab a quick lunch. The rolls are unique and tasty. It is not a traditional Japanese restaurant, but more modern/fusion style. I love the self ordering screen and the rollers just roll! My fave is the commodore roll, the flavor blends well and the ingredients are so fresh. One of these days I will try their ramen but I can't stop ordering the rolls!

I just moved to Nashville and am exploring places to eat. GoGo Sushi came up on yelp because I was in the area and wanted to check it out. I also I had a craving for ramen. With that said, the ramen is not really ramen. It's more like a beef soup with egg noodles. You're better off making the ramen at home with the $0.20 packets you buy at the store and adding in your choice of meat. It's too oily and lack favor. And at $9 a bowl... Definitely not worth it. The Korean tacos, however, were quite tasty and being 2 for $6 or 3 for $9 it's affordable and very filling. Lastly, we got the Thai tea boba and it was decent at best but at nearly $5 a cup... again, not worth it. I would say the biggest takeaway here (and biggest disappointment) is the ramen. Just do yourself a favor and don't get it if what you're looking for is a good ramen, or even just good soup. I wouldn't go back here again.

GoGo Sushi isn't meant to be a high-quality, dine in restaurant, and that's okay. I stopped by here to pick up lunch and ordered a Honeydew Fruit Freeze Bubble Tea and a Commodore Roll. The Roll was decent. For $9, there was just enough food and the roll itself was well-made--nothing falling out. However, they put A LOT of wasabi mayo sauce which pretty much overpowered the entire roll. I couldn't really taste much of anything but what I did eat was not bad. The Bubble Tea, unfortunately, was pretty terrible. The bobas were really mushy, like it had been sitting out for hours, and the drink itself was cloyingly sweet. The honeydew flavor was good, but I wish they had been more stingy with the amount of syrup they put in. I literally had a few sips and threw it away--much too sweet. Last thing, the service/operations weren't that great. When I walked in, another girl had been waiting for someone to take her order for at least 10 minutes because the POS was down.

It took 40 minutes for 4 rolls and after forty minutes they informed us that they were out of chicken that someone ordered in one of the rolls and were rude about it. The workers were rude and just chit chatting behind the counter with no sense of urgency with the exception of the one friendly employee. One of the employees yelled at a customer for ordering ramen noddles when they were out of them. The build your own sushi roll was a great concept and the quality was fine. Not worth the wait and aggregation though.

Their facility is a bit cold feeling. There's something about it I don't like - I think it's the lighting. Otherwise, great place! Their ordering kiosks are a great idea, and the sushi is great! Although recently I've gotten some pretty small pieces of sushi. A few months ago, the rolls were huge! I took all my friends there because the rolls were nice and big, and everything was delicious (except their green tea smoothie bubble tea...that needs some improvement). Anyway, I stopped taking my friends here when the rolls got so small. I go here less now. Bummer, because I liked it so much before, but now the rolls are just pathetic!!

The Korean tacos are really good here and well priced. The pad Thai rolls with a side of ginger salad are no slouch either.
(4)Cassie S.
Quick, convenient, customizable, decent* food, fair price. I'm a fan. I really like the ordering stations and the "create your own roll" - it allows me to be as healthy or as decadent as I please on any given occasion. Maybe not the best sushi I've ever eaten, but still fresh and very good. I've also had the seaweed salad and it was pretty good - nice healthy way to round out my meal. Given the convenience to school and the fact that it is not a sandwich, nor does it have insane lines like Chipotle, I know I'll be back! * (seeing as a certain minimum quality is a prerequisite to eating raw fish, I use decent as meaning well above that minimum standard)

I hadn't ventured far enough down the sidewalk to go to this spot before now, but I'm glad that I finally did. I can appreciate the electronic ordering system, as it makes it much easier to combine all of the options you might want to put in for your order. I will say that the prices have crept even higher, as the in-store prices do not even match the prices shown on the online menu. Speaking of prices, they are a bit higher than I'm used to. This is likely due to the appeal of sushi as "something different" and they do have a few items that are likely more expensive to carry versus your run-of-the-mill sushi place. If the first drink wasn't free, though (make sure to signup for the club), my meal would have been almost $12 for a pretty straightforward lunch. Overall, however, if you set aside the inflated prices, I'd say that the sushi is pretty good overall.
(4)Danni S.
Love Gogo Sushi, put prices have gone up since opening, and it makes it hard for me to justify spending $23 for two custom crab rolls. And they're not even that customized: one meat, one filling, and three simple toppings. And I only say this because the first few months it opened, my same order was only about $16, and that I could justify. Great food, not so great prices.
(3)Kristie A.
I come to this place often to get their ramen only because it's the only place close my work that offers it. I'm sad to say this place isn't the best. Their sushi is obviously not made like it would be from a Japanese restaurant. Their sushi has way too much rice. I get their ramen when I crave something hot but that's it. Don't expect getting an authentic ramen bowl. For the price they charge for it, you'd think you'd get something really authentic. It's also very busy during lunch and even when they have three workers working, orders are still slow. The people who work here are all nice, though. They work hard so it has nothing to do with the workers. It's just a really busy place and there's only so much space they can work in. Again, don't expect anything outrageous. Don't expect authentic sushi. It's a cool environment for a quick lunch if you miss or beat the lunch rush.

Wow GoGo, I'm pleasantly surprised. I've recently been experimenting with being a vegetarian, but still needed to get my sushi fix. I can't speak for the fish, but this is definitely a good place to make your own vegetarian sushi rolls. I built my own with shiitake mushroom, tofu, and the works. The roll came out to be about $10, which I thought was rather pricey, but the roll turned out to be a rather good size, cut into 10 pieces. Not those itty bitty baby bits other sushi restaurants try to pass off. The environment is very casual. I went in at night and did not have to wait too long to receive my order. Will definitely be coming back here and checking out the rest of their menu.
