   Way too dark it’s hard to see the food. The light don’t have to be so dim like in a cave. At least provide a lamp at the table

   The food was superb! Each dish we tried had layers of textures, flavors, and colors. The ambiance was cozy, lively, yet elegant. I cannot wait to return for the green beans and to try the next 6 or 7 dishes!

   We got a Chef’s table for my boyfriend’s birthday. Wait staff were incredible in regards to my dairy allergy. Food was truly delicious. Portions are small and pricy allowing you to try lots (4 things for two of us) and this was a treat. Line chefs were talking smack about customers who order the chicken (we did) because they’re paying $40 for something they can get for $14 at Chick Fil A. It tainted our vibe and was a shame when the rest of the staff made the meal and birthday celebration really special ♥️

   I’d been here once before, many years ago and it was just as great as I’d remembered it. Definitely would recommend for a something different.

   Our dinner at Girl & the Goat was nothing short of wonderful. From start to finish, each dish showcased incredible flavors and creativity. Chickpea Fritters: These were absolutely outstanding—crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with flavor. A must-try! Green Beans: As always, the green beans were seasoned perfectly, offering a delicious contrast in texture and flavor. Shrimp Salad: This was hands down our favorite dish of the night. The vinaigrette was perfectly balanced, enhancing the shrimp and adding depth to the dish. The combination of flavors and textures was simply perfect. Pig’s Face: Just as memorable as before, the pig’s face was indulgent and full of flavor. Goat Empanadas: Even better than we remembered—flaky, savory, and packed with rich filling. Hamachi Crudo: Fresh and vibrant, the hamachi was a great light dish full of flavor, that contrasted well with the richer options on the menu. Crabby Pork Belly: A delightful indulgence. The combination of pork belly with crab brought an unexpected but delicious layer to the dish. A special shout-out to our server, Ephraim, who was outstanding. He was incredibly attentive, providing top-notch service throughout the evening. His recommendations were spot-on, and he made our experience even more enjoyable. Girl & the Goat continues to impress with its inventive menu and bold flavors. We will definitely be back for more!

   Got lucky with a last minute reservation, sat at the chef’s counter, best seat in the house. Food was fantastic, there wasn’t a single dish I did not enjoy from the Nan and the carrot dip, the Hamachi Poke, Goat empanadas and Crabby BBQ Pork belly! Absolutely inspired and appreciative of the food experience! Kudos to the line cooks holding it down.

    Restaurant Review: The Girl and The Goat The Girl and The Goat continues to solidify its reputation as one of Chicago’s must-visit dining destinations. With a focus on bold flavors and a playful approach to globally inspired dishes, this restaurant delivers a truly memorable experience. Highlights: •Bread and Pimento: This dish is deceptively simple but executed to perfection. The warm, freshly baked bread pairs beautifully with the creamy, smoky pimento spread. It’s the kind of starter that sets the tone for an indulgent meal, leaving you reaching for seconds (or thirds). •Empanadas: Bursting with flavor, these are a standout. The flaky, golden crust envelops a perfectly seasoned filling that balances savory richness with a touch of spice. Each bite feels like a small, delicious adventure. Drinks to Complement Your Meal: While The Girl and The Goat boasts a full bar menu offering craft cocktails, wines, and beers to suit any palate, the non-alcoholic options are equally impressive. The menu features thoughtfully crafted mocktails, infused with fresh herbs, seasonal fruits, and house-made syrups. Standouts include a refreshing citrus-and-mint blend and a rich hibiscus and ginger cooler, each perfectly balanced to enhance the meal without overpowering the flavors of the food. Dessert Note: •Chocolate and Peanut Butter Dessert: A decadent and satisfying way to end your meal. The harmony of creamy peanut butter and rich chocolate creates a nostalgic yet elevated experience. The textures—silky, crunchy, and smooth—make this dessert unforgettable. The Girl and The Goat’s ability to innovate while staying approachable is what makes it a perennial favorite. From small plates to desserts, and a drink menu that caters to every guest, every dish tells a story worth savoring.
