Goto is a traditional Japanese eatery nestled on the Lawson Street side of the Southport Central precinct. Fresh and colourful sashimi platters and intricate sushi creations feature heavily on the menu, alongside smaller bites like crispy karaage chicken, agedashi tofu and authentic udon noodles. Champon noodles, the regional dish of Nagasaki that is regarded as ramen’s healthier cousin, is also the hero here, while diners seeking familiarity will find it in the donburi (rice bowl) offerings, which are topped with the likes of sweet-soy braised pork, karaage chicken and katsu curry. The eats are accompanied by a selection of sips, with Asahi beer on tap alongside a series of umeshu and sake variations.
