Vegan, cute bar and eatery

This was tucked away on the third floor , cool decorations with a retro, funky, Californian vibe. We had the Californian sushi rolls and sushi taco with fries- all were amazing!

Pros: Plenty of choice , Cool decor , Good vibes

Impressive

Update
Went back since they moved location
The location now opposite Phrom Phong is very convenient just across of Emsphere and then 3rd floor
The nigiri selection is amazing and a great mix of everything. The Aubergine is so soft! Really nice - all nigiri great. I highly recommend the avocado and orange mix. Fresh thinly sliced avocado and with a nice refreshing light sauce! Pairs nicely. Cool vibrant interior and amazing staff. Very attentive and friendly! Highly recommend



Wow! I am a huge fan of plant-based sushi and have one favourite back in Cologne (MakiMaki) which sets the bar quite high.
Golden State is all vegan and in a beautiful setting. Interior and design is cozy / romantic and service is professional.
I can highly recommend the cocktails as well
The California Sour was dreamy. Great taste with a vegan creamy foam on top.
Wasn’t too strong, so if you can’t handle alcohol well you can still order it. They also have some Happy Hour (best look on their website).
I loved the chef’s selection as well! 16 pieces of goodness. The nigiri and 4 deep fried crunchy rolls were outstanding
Everything did not only look pretty, but was delicious. Hard to pick a fav, but maybe the mushroom nigiri (also fried haha) was super crunchy and delicious. But honestly every piece was great
The caterpillar was a great and refreshing roll with avocado
They also have some great starters like Szechuan tofu, Yuzu fried tofu or Satay like tofu. Everything is fresh and I understand why they’re award winning now!

California sushi California price

Paid 400 baht for one roll of sushi. That’s insane. It tasted good but it wasn’t that filling. Sad

Neo-izakaya serving delicious Japanese fusion

Golden State Vegan Sushi offers a rich menu of rich food (with prices to match) in a casual and colorful club-like setting. The main food focus here is creative plant-based interpretations of sushi and sashimi plus a few western comfort-food items, so the menu is Japanese-ish, but this isn't the place to get your traditional Japanese staples.

Their sushi is delicious, more in the "flavor explosion" sense than the traditional Japanese "perfectly balanced" sense. I wouldn't go out of my way to repeat the watermelon "tuna," but everything else was exceptionally tasty.

Service is attentive and helpful.

Enjoy!

Amazing vegan sushi

The must try vegan sushi place in Bangkok! Creative dishes using wide variety of ingredients. I brought my omni friends and they were impressed! Definitely someplace to check out if you’re craving some sushi

Pros: Great flavours, creative dishes

Totally overpriced for mediocre food

To be honest, when we saw the price of everything, we ordered a couple of starters first and then we were going to see how we felt afterwards before ordering more. We were not impressed, the food was mediocre at best. Then they slapped on 7% tax and 10% service so for 2 starters, a beer and a glass of wine, it cost us €34! I can eat much better and cheaper in Spain.

Holy Maki and the Seaweeds

Very inventive vegan sushi and a huge menu. The service was friendly and its a very “American” vibes place-if you speak English and are from the States, this place is catering to you. Got the sushi party. Sushi was amazing, the place made us also feel at home because it was expensive by Bangkok standards but normal/low priced for what a fancy dinner out in the States costs.

Pros: Amazing, inventive sushi, Excellent service, Cocktails and mocktails

Cons: Expensive

Pricey but tasty vegan sushi

Pricey but worth a try, very nicely presented vegan sushi. Not overly big portions so multiple dishes do add up. Cool neon wave vibes inside!

World Champs of vegan sushi

They’ve moved locations since I was last in BKK, this one feels a bit more convenient as it’s closer to the BTS.

It might be a new location but the food is still top quality and the drinks are great. 10/10 would go again and again and again…

Awesome Food but pricey

I have to say a little bit too expensive for Bangkok but on the other side it was totally worth it. Food was amazing and good portions. Vibe was nice and very friendly staff.
Wouldn’t go here every day because of the prices but was worth it.

Ok if in area

Food was ok. Not amazing but good. Drink prices seemed a bit high... as did food. There are better vegan sushi places but this is a bar as well. So drink up

Late night tales

Late-night options in Bangkok can be hard to come by, which makes Golden State such a gem! The atmosphere is fantastic—great vibes, lively music, and an impressive selection of craft beers.

After a long day exploring the city’s sights, it was the perfect spot to unwind. I tried the orange chicken rolls, some refreshing draft beer, and their signature nigiri—absolutely delicious! Each bite was a standout.

If you’re looking for a chill, vibrant spot to wrap up your Bangkok adventure, Golden State is the place to be. Highly recommend!

Pros: Food, Staff, 100%

Really good

The crab cake burger was really good. Ruined slightly by the delivery process, which I stopped noticing as soon as I started eating it.

The WTF roll was great

Cool vibes

Really enjoyed my entire experience there last night. Cool California beach decor, young hip atmosphere, DJ playing dance music, nice lighting, the whole package. We ordered the chef selection sushi set and a crunchy mushrooms salad, both were beautifully presented and delicious. They have a cocktail bar and a smoking outdoor balcony, I didn’t try either but definitely see the value. Highly recommend overall, just a little too pricey to be a place I would frequently go to, more like a special occasiono kinda place.

Excellent

Creative and fulfilling. The rolls (WTF, Spider and Baja) were amazing flavors and the Spider was a great remake but without crab. Cool cool spot, too.

Unhealthy through and through

Pretty much the worst plant based sushi I ever had. Everything comes with super unhealthy sauces or is deep fried and lacks flavour otherwise. If you like pub food, you will enjoy it. I didn’t.

The best sushi

The sushi here was delicious. My favourite was the mango crunch roll. It was so tasty and crunchy. The tator tots were good, I liked a few of the nigiris but there were two with mushrooms on that I wasn't a huge fan of. The wtf sushi with satay peanut was great (it's like a chefs special so the filling changes daily) and I liked the yuzu and tempura pepper one but it was a little bitter. I really enjoyed the watermelon tuna make your own sushi.

Really good Vegan Sushi

Original spiced and unique tastes. I tried quite a few vegan sushi restaurants around the world, but this one is the best so far.

Pros: Original spiced recipes., Nice environment

A bit disappointing

I really wanted to like Golden State as I love vegan sushi places, but we left feeling distinctly underwhelmed. Although the food we ate was good, it has two lose two stars for the following issues:

1. The restaurant sits underneath a cannabis bar and smelled strongly of cannabis. It made the whole experience a bit unpleasant.

2. We ordered a sushi platter - it was very tasty, but took over an hour to arrive from the kitchen after our other food had arrived.

Overall, I would not go back. If you decide to eat here, I'd recommend ordering several small dishes instead of a sushi platter - maybe you'll have more luck with things arriving than us.

Pros: Good sushi, Nice vibe

Cons: Long wait, Smell of cannabis

Experienced issues due to freezer problem

We came to this place the day after songkran, during which they’d been closed for 4 days. When we got there they said they’d had an issue with their freezer during that time and that it might take a couple of hours before they could serve. They then said they could serve is quicker than that, but once we sat down they said there’d be no avocado. They didn’t really communicate that this would mean there’d be an issue with ordering most of the sushi from the menu. Only after we’d been waiting for ages to order did we ask them and find out that more things were not possible, such as their main hot meals and other ingredients that it seems might have gone off during the process. Communication really could have been improved. We ended up having to order from a limited selection of sushi and small plates, and because of the avo shortage we ended up with 3 very similar sushi rolls. The food was nice enough but we found the overall experience quite disappointing. Of course the freezer issue is not their fault but it would have been much better if they had told us firmly at the beginning that most of the menu would not be possible to cook and so we shouldn’t eat there. We were short on time so if we’d known that we would have gone somewhere else. After we’d ordered our stuff, they came back to tell us certain things were not available (ie they’d probably gone off) so we had to change our order again. I think this was a unique situation and I imagine normally this place is great, but for us, given the price of the food, it was not worthwhile.

Sooo good!

One of the best sushi places I’ve been to in the world - can’t find fault in anything we ordered. The flavors were distinct and unique and we really really enjoyed it! Highly recommend
