Gochi Japanese Fusion Tapas

Honestly, this place has really good atmosphere and ambiance which is perfect for a dinner date. They have both regular seating area and the Japanese style with tatami floor dining area. However, that’s pretty much it.. Food wise - presentation was 4 out of 5 and taste was pretty mediocre in my opinion (3/5). They also never pick up their phone, so you need to do reservations vis Yelp. Once you’re there, a couple servers will keep reminding you about your time limit (for us it was 1.5 hr, which wasn’t too bad for my party).

First time here wit a same day reservation which was great! The food is so yummy and unique! Pizza is so yummy and different! Rice is definitely a must to try! Carpaccios are so fresh and yummy! Service is a little slow but not bad at all because they are super busy! Parking is so easy! We will be back!

Food taste Excellent 5☆ Ratio Dish Amount to Price 2☆ Service 5☆ Food was delicious; what little there was of it. Item pictured, 6 pieces of Scallops with Uni, was over $25.00! Duck with Plum sauce, another pricey item, was also very good, especially the sauce. Atmosphere was very nice: Quiet, dark, calming music. Table choice of American with chairs or the more traditional with seats on the floor. I liked it. Parking is in a small lot; but if you are not there before opening or are not lucky, don't expect to be right in front of the place; it is wildly popular and there is almost always a row of cars parked directly in front of this restaurant. Very good, but pricey, pretty food. Go with money to burn, especially if you are hungry!

Ceviche: 3/5 average, tiny portion. Hamachi cp: 4/5, a little overcharged but fresh. Mentaiko pizza: 4/5, very crunchy but too much mushrooms, you can't taste anything else. Grilled beef tone: 1/5, don't order it. Also service is kinda slow, we had to wait for half an hour, and they only allow you to dine for 1.5 hrs.

Takes reservations via yelp Friendly atmosphere with tatami seating and homey Japanese decor. Lots of food choices. Something for everyone!! Stand out dishes for me were the clay pot rice and grilled beef tongue! Grilled squid - standard, smoky grilled squid Okonomiyaki pizza - this was okay. I wouldn’t order it again. I’d rather have a non fusion, normal okonomiyaki. Beef tongue - smoky, delicious. Chicken clay pot rice - notes of mirin and savory ground chicken. Rice at the bottom is crispy. Agedashi tofu - pretty standard. On the sweeter side Mentaiko potato gratin - I love anything Mentaiko so I could have just shoveled this into my face. Ankimo - standard fish liver. Not the most fresh, but pretty good! Kanpachi carpaccio - liked the sauce. Same as ankimo, could have been more fresh, but it was still good.

izakaya style restaurant tucked away in a normal strip mall. Cupertino is super lucky to have this kind of food here. The menu is really thoughtful and well laid out. A mixture of Japanese and Japanese fusion dishes. Everything I've had is super fresh and tasty, although the portions are small because that is the style. A step above TANTO in food quality, decor, and presentation, but that is reflected in the price as well.
