"I loved our first waiter. He was an Asian guy that really set us up right with good strong recommendations and good reasoning behind why he recommended each item for us. I liked that a lot. For example, one appetizer roll was hot and the other was cold. We picked the hot one and told him we wanted to order the the Vegan noodle soup to share, but couldn 't decide on the third item. He recommended the Vegetable Chow Fun over the Clay Pot Dish and the other rice dish we asked him about. He told us recommended the noodles because we had ordered so many hot dishes... and we were sitting out on the patio on a hot night... so he smiled at me and said, Too many hot things... just too much hot, you know what I mean? I think it was his playful crooked smile that got me in a happy, excited mood in anticipation of our forthcoming meal. A pleasant young girl, who I later realized spoke no English, brought us a plate of Edamame. The Edamame was super good and not too salty. The other waiter at least spoke English and seemed to runabout doing just about everything else, especially collecting everyone 's payment... Now that 's important! All of our dinner items were fantastic, especially our first waiter 's suggestions of the Chow Fun. I 'm definitely going to come back just for that! And, I can 't wait to come back to try their other dishes as well. If the weather is good when you visit this place, make sure to sit outside on the patio. It 's truly divine out there. The decor inside is very tasteful, but you just can 't beat the twinkle lights and the beauty of the blossoming Cherry Tree in the corner of the patio out there. The restrooms are hidden in the far left corner behind a plush curtain inside. But, don 't rush past the gorgeous water fountain right in front of the doors if you go in. It exudes a peaceful, tranquil quality that you don 't find just anywhere. But, here at The Goji Kitchen, you 'll most certainly find a soulful balance through the peaceful splendor in the environment and pure deliciousness in the food that awaits you! Oh... and come hungry... I think you 'll agree the prices are fair once you see how much food they bring you!"

"Pretty good food. Stays close to it 's diner roots/inspiration without venturing too much into the unknown ... or the exciting really. I typically just go for the basic burger the first few times I eat somewhere, and here was no exception. It 'd be a lie to say I was disappointed ... I ate the whole meal and felt satisfied, but around here I feel like you need just a little more to get that fifth star experience. So the food wasn 't particularly amazing, the folks and atmosphere was certainly nice, but nothing outstanding, the value for the food wasn 't horrible, but if start ordering anything more than basic food and tack on a milkshake or two, you could be leaving a diner over $30. The real hinge-point for me between the 4 and 5 star mark was the flavor of the meat. I 'll give them credit that it tasted much more juicy and natural than it did greasy and burnt, but in the end of the day it lacked flavor in a big way. I don 't feel that it was even properly seasoned on the salt front, let alone with any additional seasonings; although they did cook a pretty good medium-rare, which if you 've ever been to a burger place without a Michelin star, you know that 's how you get a medium, so that was pleasant. If I 'm ordering a $18 grass-fed, shade grown, fair trade, cruelty free, no antibiotics, the-cows-got-to-play-pacman-6-hours-a-day-and-little-Betty-read-them-bedtime-stories, ground beef patty in a burger filled with very fresh ingredients, I can easily forgive under-seasoning in an effort to highlight the complexity of the freshness of the dish; but although this burger was good, it wasn 't that good, and some simple ground beef seasoning tricks would 've made all the difference. But ... it was still good food, and I 'll still probably be back, it 's just shy of greatness, and in Sonoma County, it 's just too easy to find a better burger."
