Girl & the Goat opened in 2010 with the goal of offering a menu of bold, flavorful dishes designed to share in a fun and lively atmosphere. To complement the experience, we offer a curated selection of wines from around the world, focusing on small producers, along with a rotating list of craft beers and a playful cocktail menu crafted by our bartenders. The ever-changing menu, driven by locally sourced and seasonal ingredients, features favorites like sautéed green beans, roasted oysters, crispy short ribs, and confit goat belly. While reservations are encouraged for the dining room, our bar welcomes walk-ins, adventurers, and those who prefer spontaneity.

From the OpenTable editors: When it opened in 2010, Girl & the Goat ushered in a new era of casual fine dining on the West Loop’s now-iconic Restaurant Row. In a cozy, rustic-chic space, feast on mega-award-winning (James Beard, Top Chef, Iron Chef) Stephanie Izard’s bold, globally influenced dishes like sweet and sour wood-fired whole branzino and goat empanadas that prove why this MICHELIN-Starred restaurant remains as hot and relevant as ever.

    Words don't describe it. Service was impeccable the food was outstanding indescribable tastes. The chickpea fritters were out of this world. The taste the creaminess. The goat liver moose everything we had last night was amazing. We went there for my wife's 40th birthday it was everything she was hoping for and more. She's been a big fan of Stephanie Izard since before her top chef debut and my wife absolutely was beyond words last night. We are recommending to all our friends

    The food is so inventive, so tasteful, so interesting1 You get a bang for your buck, because by Chicago prices this one is SOOO reasonable. I put it up there, for service and cuisine against ANY restaurant in Chicago.

    They food was very tasty. However my fish Main which was bass was overdone and the server did not offer to correct. Moreover, the portion sizes were minuscule.

    Had been wanting to try girl & the goat for a while & was so happy to finally get a reservation. The server told us if we knew what we wanted we could put our whole order in at once & he’d course it out. We put everything in & our dishes came out within minutes of each other in a weird order & seemed so rushed. While the food was amazing we weren’t given time to enjoy everything before the next dish was served. Will definitely be going back but will order one at a time instead of all at once.

    I don’t know how you get that much flavor in foods. And the cocktails are also amazing! The green beans and chickpea fritters are a must try.
