Goto symbol is Ctrl-R (linux), this gives a pop-up-list of all symbol and class definitions in the file, in definition order, and you can jump to what you're after. You could do the same thing with Goto Anything, Ctrl-P and then typing @ and the method name.

Also, there is a Goto Symbol plugin, which lets you jump straight to the definition of the method name your cursor is at, with a key binding or click.

However, both those methods are limited to the current file. If you need to jump to definitions in other files, probably the best solution is the SublimeCodeIntel plugin. It seems to be working pretty well and just by hitting Ctrl-f3 (linux) will open up the file at the definition you want.
