Indoor Dining is Back!
Not only do we still have our lovely outdoor patio seating available, we are now also open to indoor dining once again! Please note: We do NOT take reservations at this time- Due to our limited occupancy restrictions, our tables are first come, first served.
We still offer 50% off bottled wines (for take-out only), and you can enjoy our food without leaving the house with Uber Eats, Seamless, and Postmates.

WHO WE ARE
WINES
All of our wines are hand-selected by chef-owner Rafael, who has developed a personal relationship with many of the wineries he showcases. Much of the menu focuses on smaller wineries that are organically or bio-dynamically certified or practicing.
EATS
We use local and organic ingredients whenever possible. Vegetables are purchased frequently and in small quantities to ensure peak freshness. The steak is sterling silver black angus. We do not add sugar to any of our dishes - only Madeira wine, sake, and a little bit of fruit.
Our entire menu was created using traditional and homemade recipes, many of which were developed over a campfire.
RAFAEL
Prior to GOMI, Rafael would often cook multi-course meals for his friends and it became his dream to create a space where he was able to share his wine and food with others.
Born in Korea but raised in Brazil (half of that time spent in São Paolo’s Japan Town), Rafael’s international background comes across in his food, music, and wines. His ability to speak five languages is as unique as dining with him, when it’s not unusual to have a Picanha steak, bibim bap, and a Portuguese red wine.
You’ll often find Rafael behind the bar at GOMI or serving you personally. Don’t hesitate to start a conversation about food, hiking, dogs, or wine.
When not at Gomi, Rafael can be found hiking with Gommy and friends.
GOMMY (Woof!)
Hi! My name is Gommy, and the restaurant was named after me! The spelling was changed because apparently it is easier to remember and spell "G-O-M-I." I'm a dog, so I'm not offended at all...
I’m an 85 pound long-hair Japanese Akita. My favorite food is salmon and my favorite hiking trail is on Bear Mountain.
