Best American Restaurants in Humboldt Park

First of all I thought the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming! We were celebrating our anniversary and they made it feel special. The rigatoni really stood out and will be a must order for us in the future - it had the perfect level of spice and warmth in flavor. The chips and dip were a fun appetizer to start with and were priced perfectly. We’ll definitely be back!

Great experience. Great food. Great server. Good music. Only down side was that they ran out of meatballs and tiramisu. The ribs were amazing. Chopped salad was delicious. I even loved the salami and pickled eggplant they bring to the table. We will be back!

My second time here, made to feel even more special than the first. The wait staff was, knowledgeable, prompt, attentive, professional and friendly. When asked for a suggestion, the selections were spot on. When asked for a personal opinion, they made answered insightfully with the customer in mind. And I can not speak enough of the GM Anna, who delightfully visited our table multiple times to make sure everything was perfect. The vibrant flavors compliment the subtly jubilant atmosphere and its five star staff. Good music, not so loud to drown out a conversation, yet not so quiet to uncomfortably hear the next table over. The lighting is easy on the eyes, but not too dark. And the creative cocktails are made with precision and care. Everything about this place exemplifies the joys of dining out. It is now my go-to restaurant to bring friends, dates, business dinners, etc. I cant wait to return.

We brought our two grandsons (ages 5 and 3) to the Walnut Room in Chicago on 1/3/2025, to experience the holiday decor. The "fairies" circulating around to each table were so engaging while chatting with our grandsons, and explaining how to "make a wish". Our server was very friendly and efficient, even under the pressure of a very busy day at the restaurant. The food was very good, and I was pleasantly surprised to see kids menu items available, which our grandsons thoroughly enjoyed. Two small glitches. . 1. Upon arrival, there were soiled napkins/food items on the floor next to one of the chairs at our table. I was disappointed at that mess. One of the "fairies" noticed this mess and got the staff to clean it up and 2. Our cocktails were served AFTER our food arrived. Despite these two small glitches, we had a wonderful time together, and on the way home, our 5 year old grandson told us he had the BEST DAY ever.

every time we eat at girl and the goat, i fall in love all over again. the food is creative and always delicious. the ambiance feels so cozy and casual, intimate, and like a warm hug. i love that i celebrated my 40th birthday here at the king’s table and then, 10 years later visited for my 50th birthday and tho we sat at a different table, had a repeat visit from the same server - GARY!!! definitely try the steak in citrus dressing, the pork belly in crabmeat sauce, and always the pig face. always always the pig face. and the crumpets in the pate order. my GOSH so good
