Came to Girl & the Goat for the first time a week ago with my boyfriend and had a great time! Our expectations were super high as I’d been hearing about this restaurant for years.
When we first came in the host tried to seat us at a tinyyy table sandwiched between two sets of couples on each side, all sharing one long bench. I asked if there was anything else and we ended up sharing a large table with another group that was already eating. I found this a little strange given the exclusivity of the reservation process and that the entire front part of the restaurant is taken up by an enormous sectional couch which they called “the lounge.” Why do you need a lounge if you can’t comfortably seat your reservations?
The food, drinks, and service however, were fantastic. Our server was super friendly and engaging! For 2 people, 5 dishes is plenty (which is what our server said). 4 if you’re getting the pork shank, which you absolutely should. Everything was super creative with innovative flavor combinations. I also loved that the restaurant is tapas style (although the plates were much bigger than traditional tapas), because it allows you to try more of the menu without breaking the bank.
Don’t skip: the pork shank, the green beans, the olive bread with feta
Top 5 meal of my life. It was incredible from start to finish. I went here for Valentine's Day with my wife and it was prefix menu but everything was fantastic. I personally loved the pork belly the best. I look forward to going again to try out their full menu.
