The Goblin

The Goblin is one of the better sushi spots I've been to. This is the original location, but there are also locations in Macomb and Southwest Detroit. The nearly all-white interior is trendy and welcoming. The staff here is friendly and efficient. The seafood options are always fresh, and overall, the pricing is fair.As for the sushi specifically, you can't go wrong with any of the menu items. The Alaska, Dragon, and Fire Cracker rolls are all delicious, but of those, I prefer the Alaska. The simpler rolls, such as the salmon and yellowtail, are solid options, as well. The Panda and Penguin trays are great options for larger groups. My go-to dish is the nigiri. I have tried the BBQ eel, bluefin tuna, mackerel, salmon, shrimp, torched scallop, torched squid, and yellowtail. Similar to the rolls, all of these are great options.In short, if you're a sushi lover, this is a must try place.

I felt like the reviews/ratings were too good to be true but this place met my expectations. I ordered food for New Years Eve 15 minutes before they closed and the workers were so nice! I wish I came earlier to sit down, enjoy the food, and ambiance but I'll definitely be coming back. The inside is so cute and neat. My boyfriend and I ordered the Fire Cracker roll, Alaska roll, Nigiri Set with a California roll, and the Bluefin Tuna & Scallion roll. All of which tasted so fresh and yummy especially the Nigiri that just melted on my tongue.

What more can I say about this place, but it is MY TO GO PLACE for sushi . I can not get enough of the food here, plus the staff is super friendly. The staff makes you feel like family. My little always asked to come back here due to the food, decor, and staff; they call it the cute sushi place. They also sell cup ramen that you can cook yourself. I have a sister in law from Charlotte, NC, and every time she visits, she asks me to take here, lol.

I had this place saved for a long time and finally got to try it out. I am very selective when it comes to my raw fish and only trust a few places (Noble Fish, So Zai, One World Market) and am happy that I can now add The Goblin to my list! The fish tasted fresh and I would say the quality compares to Noble Fish.We got the Goblin Panda Tray which is a great price ($50 for 48 pieces). We had minimal left over and thought it was the perfect portion for 2. We sat at the bar area and the sushi chef was so kind and offered us a free sushi sample as well as a sample of REAL wasabi! The offer complimentary tea and have a variety of Korean snacks (like choco pie) as well as their branded merchandise/apparel for sale.

The freshest sushi around. The staff is super friendly. The decor is cute! We enjoyed our visit.

This place is just awesome! Not only is the sushi fresh and well priced, but the chefs and staff are all so friendly. I've eaten in the restaurant and have gotten take out and both times I left thinking "I love this place!"If you haven't been, you need to!!!

What an absolutely awesome sushi place! We have had carry-out, as well as dined in at The Goblin. First off, the sushi is on-point! The chef(s) are always pleasant and the staff is very helpful. The decor is fun for adults and kids, the tables draw from the culture and have a simplistic approach. We often get the penguin platter to-go and it is always fresh and delicious.

This place is so adorable and welcoming inside! The workers are very friendly and the sushi is delicious. The fire cracker roll was my favorite and they make really cute animal themed rice balls :)

I love this place so much and it's one of my go-to sushi spots. The staff are so friendly and the service is absolutely amazing. Very generous of the chefs to offer rotating menu items or experimental dishes, every time I go we love it. LOVE the ambiance as well, the bright interior and minimalistic plating gives off a very clean and comfortable feeling. The sushi is one of the freshest tasting I've ever had. Amazing. Definitely try all of the nigiri. My personal favorite is the torched squid.

I went off the reviews when deciding to visit this restaurant and they did not disappoint! I have not one complaint. Great food! Fresh!Great ambiance! Very clean! Welcoming! My daughter and I are regulars now!!
