The food is delicious, the service is impeccable, and the ambiance is great (I love the low-lighting). We went for my birthday and everything was perfect. This is also an awesome first-date place. Every single menu item we ordered was perfect. Small plates was perfect for our group of 4. The only issue was that we waited over half an hour to be seated even when we had made a reservation weeks in advance. There was really no apology for the wait and people who came in after us were seated before us. Also it is INCREDIBLY LOUD. The room has high ceilings and I imagine some areas of the restaurant are louder than others, but we were in a booth along the wall and it was almost impossible to hear each other across the table. Which was especially upsetting since my dad doesn't have the best hearing in the world..

First time I went here it was one of the best experiences I had ever had at a restaurant. Had I experienced the same level of service upon my second visit, this place would be 5 star no doubt. However, my second (and last) visit ruined the place for me. Our waiter was rude, the food wasn't as great as the first time and we had to wait for everything (including water, they only filled our glasses once during our hour long meal). I had been raving to my fiancee about this place for months since our first visit and we took my parents there as one of the two restaurants we visited during their short stay in Chicago. I was embarrassed to have brought them based on our experience. I talked to a manager about my disappointment due to my amazing first experience and how I had expected more out of the establishment... he didn't seem to care at all. No problem, I will take my business elsewhere. Good service is only exceptional if it's consistent.

Let me just start off by saying that I wanted to give this place a five-star review SO bad. My mom and I were visiting from California, and we had made a 5PM reservation for a Wednesday. When we came in, we were seated immediately, but I did notice quite a lot of empty seats. I'm not sure if they were for walk-ins, but I still think that it was good that we had a reservation. The restaurant itself is huge and beautiful, and I loved the atmosphere of the place! This restaurant serves food in small dishes, so for two people, the waitress recommended three to four plates. We ordered the roasted cauliflower, the confit goat belly, the pig face, and the grilled baby octopus. Before I get into the food, I have to admit that the service here was AMAZING. The waiters and waitresses were super attentive and catered to our every need! Okay on to the food. The roasted cauliflower was SO GOOD. I wish I ordered two plates of that stuff! It was nice and smokey, and with the pine nuts and mint = DELICIOUS! The pig face was pretty good, but I don't really like the fatty-ish pieces of meat, so in retrospect I probably shouldn't have ordered this... The confit goat belly was delicious! The sauces that came with it were really interesting and I recommend that one. The only one I don't recommend is the grilled baby octopus. We were recommended this one by the waitress, and I thought the flavors were a little bit too strong altogether. It was little too salty, bitter, and while it wasn't bad, I just did not like it that much. Overall, it's a great restaurant to check out in Chicago, and if I ever find myself in the Windy City again, I will make a trip here!

Enjoyed dinner here while spending a couple of days visiting Chicago. I've eaten at a ton of restaurants that would call themselves some form of 'new american', and this is easily one of the best. The roasted pig face is a must order; definitely the highlight among a number of great dishes. We also had the confit goat belly and the escargot ravioli - both were extremely creative, complex and well executed dishes that we thoroughly enjoyed. Often I'm let down by the desserts at restaurants like this, but the miso-butterscotch budino was nothing short of spectacular. Will absolutely look to return here next time I'm in Chicago.

The food was incredible. We sat outside at a communal table in front. Tuesday night 1030. Still packed. When it was super awesome. And the only thing bad about this place is how loud it is inside. But that's the atmosphere you pay for. Still, one of the best restaurants in the city

Service was extremely slow and two of the items we ordered were no longer available by the end of the dinner even though we had already ordered them. Expected much more from such a highly regarded restaurant.

Lived up to the hype. The goat empanadas, the pigs face, the oysters were all delicious and slightly different than what you would get anywhere else- they put a spin on all their recipes! The star of the show however, was the halibut with blueberry nuoc cham. AMAZING flavour combination, I can't imagine how they come up with these things. As a special note, service here was outstanding. Very efficient without being intrusive. The waitstaff worked as a team- if any of them was passing by they would reflll our glasses or take away a plate. We loved our meal here

So I feel like we cheated a bit here, given that we'd heard so much about the Girl and the Goat from friends and that it's so highly reviewed. Nevertheless, we always choose 1 great restaurant to go to every time we visit my parents in the 'burbs (We're from Denver) and the Girl and the Goat had finally come up. In debating ratings, hubby and I agreed on a 5 because we simply could not think of a single dish that was anything less than excellent. The blueberry jam with the bread was rich, the bread itself having the right amount of butter. The green beans have ruined me for green beans ever again, with their delightful cashews and savory sauce. The chicken had just the right amount of smoked flavor to reflect a wood fired approach without being too smoky, and the halibut was polished off in seconds flat by my other half. We also loved the Pierogis and the service was on point (helpful without being obtrusive and with great (and enthusiastic) explanations of every dish). So many other nice touches, such as the fact that our water glasses never had the chance to be empty, the drinks were perfectly mixed and the server brought out a free birthday dessert for my husband (I'd noted it was his birthday in the reservations). Along those lines, be sure to save room for dessert! We ordered a second blackberry cake in addition to the budino (which wowed with its salty butterscotch flavor and homemade whipped cream) and both were incredible!

Great atmosphere with knowledgable staff...and the best part is the FOOD! It's all great and most of the items get changed out so you are likely to always have a chance to try something new. Only downside is that it's so popular reserving a table can be difficult to get a time that works for you and your party. But I guess that's a good sign right?

Im not sure where to begin! This place is absolutely amazing! If you are an adventurous eater, and into "different" things, than this is a place that I would put on your list when in Chicago. The owner is Stephanie Izard, who won Top Chef (the Bravo TV show), she opened the Girl and The Goat, back in 2010. While doing some research for our trip, this place kept coming up! Then one night, we were watching a show on FoodNetwork, and yet again, we saw this place! After reading some reviews on yelp, I called (a month in advance) and made a reservation! After taking a look at the menu, we decided on a few different things. I should mention that these are all small dishes, so our waitress recommended we order between 5-7, which of course we did! We ordered the Spring Onion Pierogies, Goat Empanadas, Squash Blossom Crab Rangoon, Grilled Baby Octopus, the Tartare Special, and one of the bread specials, that I can remember at the moment! Everything was so AMAZING!!! Perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and a decent portion! Definitely enough for two people to share! We also, had two cocktails (La Paloma...yes!!!!!) and for dessert we had the Chocolate Truffle cake, which, well, just try it!!! All in all everything was amazing! The atmosphere is pretty awesome as well, lots of seating, open kitchen concept, so you see all the chefs working, which I personally enjoy. Our waitress was fantastic, so sweet, so informative and so attentive!! If you plan on coming, MAKE A RESERVATION!!!!! Enjoy!

The hubby and I dined the Girl & the Goat three years ago but made the huge mistake of having a large lunch beforehand and early reservation here. We were too full to enjoy the meal. This time, we came starving. We ordered the three types of oysters (four oysters in each order) which came raw, barbecued and fried. Delicious. We also got the escargot ravioli as well as the goat's liver mousse with its yummy bread, tasty green beans and the famous pig's face. All the dishes were delicious and left us feeling very satisfied.

I came here with my friend and my fiance as a pre-holiday dinner out together. The food here is ever cutting edge and top notch, you really cannot go wrong. I've entertained clients here before and everyone is always impressed. My only complaint is that the food tends to be over salted for my taste and after a couple of dishes, it feels like my taste buds are deadened from salt overload.

If you've read my other reviews you'll know it's extremely rare for me to give a 5-star rating, but in this case it could not be more warranted. I've been wanting to come here for several years and finally had an opportunity to cross it off my bucket list during a business trip in June 2015. I brought along two employees, one of which is extremely hard to please, and neither were disappointed (actually got some huge thank yous for introducing them). We had called to make reservations over a month in advance for a Sunday evening, but they were booked solid. They still told us we could try and slide in, or opt to sit at the bar. Upon arrival it was pretty cozy with a sectioned off patio on the street out front. Nothing pretentious or overdone with regard to the decor - just a warm inviting place. They have a solid beer and spirit selection, and while I went with a couple of bourbons and an IPA with the main meal I was pretty enticed by their signature drinks. The bartender brought us a complimentary order of the green beans which were served with a very savory sauce - good stuff. We opted to go tapas style and started with the goat empanadas and the calamari over goat ricotta bruschetta, both of which were excellent. The empanadas were crisp with very tender goat inside. Not a huge fan of the blueberries served with this (also included crumbled goat cheese and crushed pecans over guacamole I believe), but it actually worked. The calamari bruschetta was truly great and highly recommended (menu description: clam baguette. goat milk ricotta. goat bacon. green tomato). Wish I could have two more plates of it right now, but sadly I'm back in Atlanta. We then shared two orders of the pork belly and the pork shank (they had sold out of the goat shank. WOW. Both were phenomenal and a must-try if you only have one night in town. Menu descriptions below, but sadly didn;t catch a shot of the pork belly dishes in my attachments. grilled marinated pork belly castelfranco. sauce green. blackberries crisp braised pork shank buttermilk dressing. grilled spring onion kimchee. naan

I am getting sick of restaurants serving food from the kitchen when they want without any plan of what goes with what and matching the tastes with the order of the plates. This restaurant had such good hype I was expecting more. Our entree and side flavors did not blend in the palate. The sides were huge and came near the end of the meal and who wants spicy cauliflower then. The goat empanadas filling was ok but the crust was limp and undercooked. The chicken in mole sauce was ok nothing special. The pan roasted halibut was not bad. The place is lively and energetic. The service was too attentive in not a good way like they wanted us out of there. the waitress kept coming over to ask us if we wanted to order like every five minutes crazy.

Really enjoyed ourselves. Absolutely great food! Squash blossoms - crab rangoon style, superb Calamari bruschetta - perfectly cooked Chickpea fritters - piping hot and tasty Goat belly confit - tender Pig face - make sure to mix with maple sauce. So good All the flavors worked well. Food was wonderfully executed. Cocktails were tasty. The thai one on smelled like thai food :) service was fantastic! Our waiter was on point. Bus crew was swift. No complaints out of me! Will be back for more

Making our reservations, months in advance I had such high hopes for this place. I was really let down by the food. It was just ok, but nothing blew my mind. We were seated on the other side of a glass partition from the bar, which was super annoying because people kept looking at our food and asking us questions while we were eating. They really shouldn't have seating there. As far a service goes, we were in and out in under an hour. I've been to many restaurants with long waits, and I have never been rushed like that in my entire life. I felt like we had no time to enjoy our food because they were bringing out dishes so quickly. We were shoveling food down our throats before the next dish arrived. I suggested the owners visit Parachute because they are just as busy and don't rush you out the door. Plus their food is way better. We started with the taco bread, which was delicious, but sadly the highlight of our eating experience here. We also ordered the stuffed squash blossoms, goat empanadas, green garlic pierogies, the pig face, chickpea fritters, and the octopus. Everything was just ok. If I didn't know it was goat, I wouldn't be able to tell it apart from any other protein. It lack any discernible flavor. The octopus was very disappointing. I'm all for char in my food, but this was burnt, and and acrid burnt flavor took over the entire dish. Everything else was just ok.

Stopped by on a Monday night without reservations, but we were able to get seated at 4:30 (opening) as long as we were out by 6 p.m. I was so happy they were able to accommodate us after hearing all the great things my friend had to say about this place (then I realized this is Stephanie Izard's place and I HAD to come). We were seated at a communal table, which was fine by me. Before coming, I had done my research aka read through Yelp and knew what I wanted before we were even seated. The hostess was super friendly and kind, and so was our server Kelly. She asked if we were first timers and gave us a great run-down of the menu, which is always appreciated when you're new to a place. La Paloma: I asked our server if this or the Local 75 was more sour and she pointed me to La Paloma. Loved it and it was definitely perfect for my tastes -- I like my cocktails sour and tart to the point that I can't taste the alcohol in it :P Hamachi Crudo: Even though the pork belly was very good, I wasn't impressed by this dish. Hamachi and crispy pork belly make a surprisingly delicious combination, but this didn't live up to the "hype" of Girl and the Goat for me. I'd skip this dish unless you really love hamachi and/or pork belly. Goat Carpaccio: We though since we were here, why not try some goat. The boyfriend and I both never had goat before this and thought we'd go all out with raw meat. Good dish, but nothing impressive. Roasted Cauliflower: Almost every Yelp review mentioned this dish, so of course we had to get it. And finally, a dish that lived up to my expectations! This was my favorite dish of the night and I could've just eaten three orders of this and been happy. The mint, pine nuts, peppers were perfect with the roasted cauliflower -- such a unique, great combo. This is a MUST ORDER dish. Pan Roasted Halibut: Yes. Yes. Yes. I'm not a big fan of fish, but this was SO good. The fish was a touch overcooked (dry =/) but the sauce fixed that problem. The menu says the fish comes/is cooked with a marcona almond butter and blueberry nuoc cham, which reminds me of a ponzu-y flavor but more sour and pungent. Wood Oven Roasted Pig Face: The boyfriend was hesitant about this after I told him I wanted to try it. Days before we hit up Girl and the Goat, he goes on Google and reads about how the dish is made, which really does involve cooking the pig's face. When the dish came, that was all the could think about and could only eat so much. He was definitely overthinking it and weirding himself out, but I loved it. It has a taste that reminds me of teriyaki, but I can't quite put my finger on what food it reminds me off. But whatever. It's delicious. Order it. While some dishes were underwhelming, the overall experience was great. Our water was constantly refilled and they switched out our dirty dishes three times. Kelly came back and checked on us a few times -- not so much that she was annoying, and not so little that we felt she forgot about us. I'd definitely come back again if I'm ever in Chicago again!

Hype....upscale....hipster....yes to all of these descriptors! But the food! Wow! About 15 line chefs and more in the back dance to the tune of some great symphony to produce some of the most amazing and unique dishes ever. The pig's face (really hipster: bacon and eggs) is a MUST! The broccoli: do not leave this place without ordering this huge plate of heaven-food! The copper river salmon was a bit small but delicious. We wanted to get the whole fish! The wine is a bit pricey: do not order the "house" wines: they are the most expensive. There are some good wines, so read the list carefully. The butterscotch dessert was a sleeper and amazing! A 4 month wait for a reservation? No way, no restaurant is that good. Just show up 20 minutes before they open and they will fit a "couple" in somewhere. Very nice about it too. The service was absolutely first class! Fun, delicious and you should go......

Excellent service & always a fun & lively atmosphere. I normally don't love small plates (mostly bc I've done it SO much), but this menu serves well as small portions. It's a great way to try dishes you'd never order as an entire meal.

Brian R.
Super unique food choices. Loved everything. Had about 6 different drinks and each one was outstanding. There's so many great things I could say, but I'd be writing all day. If you're going here make sure to book in advance. We did a 2 month booking before hand. Also make sure to go with a group of people. It makes it so much fun. Oysters, cauliflower, octopus, and their pig face are some of my highest recommendations. Also, be open to trying new things you wouldn't think you'd live. I'm pretty sure you'll change your mind! Enjoy :)

I will admit that I was a little skeptical that Girl & the Goat might be overrated, given how much I've heard about it in my time in Chicago. Furthermore, as a vegetarian, one often misses out on the dishes places like these are known for. However, the restaurant did not disappoint at all. Our waiter was friendly and charming, and recommended a variety of dishes given the dietary restrictions so I didn't feel restricted at all. I can't remember the exact dishes we ordered (the excellent wine might have contributed to that), but everything was delicious and full of different flavours. I found myself loving innovative dishes I wouldn't normally have thought I would (given the ingredients), and literally every dish was enjoyable. Our table was so stuffed after that we (almost) didn't have room for dessert, which also did not disappoint.

First stop off the plane was straight to Girl & the Goat. It's sharing style and the waiter recommended 4 dishes for 2 people and that was the perfect amount. We tried the shisito peppers which is covered in parm cheese. Beets, which were different from the usual and mixed with anchovy, avocado sauce, and bread crumbs. The escargot ravioli lived up to its hype. The pig face was good... like a breakfast hash but not as mind blowing as I expected. Wish I had a second stomach to try more. The drinks were solid with the Italian grandpa being my favorite. It's like a negroni. Great atmosphere.

My wife is a big foodie, and I am not. I prefer down home cooking, of the kind you might find at any of a hundred cornerside burger and hotdog places in Chicago. But, I am down with the Girl & the Goat. It's one of the high dining places that we can both enjoy. Win.

If you're ever in Chicago you must come here. Worth the hype. The dishes are small so you can get several and share them. We loved every single dish that we ordered. Taco bread, chickpea fritters, goat empanadas, halibut. All amazing. We were scared to try the pig's face but it ended up being our favorite dish. So good! We ended the meal with the miso butterscotch budino. We didn't have reservations, so we got there at 4:30pm. We were seated within 15 minutes. They gave us an hour and half time limit to eat, which was more than enough. The servers did a great job of bringing out the next dish just as you were finishing up the one in front of you. Don't leave Chicago without trying this place.

I can never resist provocative flavors and innovative dishes and Girl & the Goat delivers on both fronts. ----The Food---- Crisp Braised Pork Shank ($26)- WOW. One bite of this tender, succulent pork shank and I delved into my own happy world--nothing else mattered. Sharing this flavorful creation will be the worst part of your meal. The Kimchee wing sauce and buttermilk dressing make perfect, tasteful dips for the pillowy soft naan too. Roasted Pig Face ($18)- This wood oven dish was good, but fell short of expectations, especially since it's one of the more popular signature plates on the menu. It comes with a sunny side egg, crispy potato stix, drizzled in tamarind vinaigrette, red-wine maple sauce and cilantro oil. It's reminiscent of the pig face at Animal in LA, but more subdued in taste. It's messy, it's good, just not mind blowing. Grilled Marinated Pork Belly ($15)- Served with radicchio and an aromatic green sauce resembling pureed cilantro and avocado, this pork belly plate had an uplifting, light flavor, but the consistency of the pork belly was oft-putting. I felt it was undercooked, giving it a chewier consistency than I can bear. Confit Goat Belly ($19)- While I'm a big fan of this order, I disliked the tiny portion. Smothered in heavy bourbon butter and sprinkled sparingly with lobster/crab, it's a comforting plate that didn't taste as gamey as I thought it would. Roasted Cauliflower ($11)- Accompanied with pickled peppers, pine nuts and mint, it's a refreshing appetizer that is as good as Bar Ama's in LA. Pan Roasted Halibut ($18)- I hate fish, but this masterpiece melts in your mouth and makes your eyes roll back to your skull. Made with marcona almond butter, white asparagus, blueberry nuoc cham, the flavors are wonderfully surprising and unique. Amazing. ----- Conclusion: 4.5 Stars. Your inner carnivore will thank you, after giving the Girl & the Goat a visit. I believe Chef Izard didn't need to be on Top Chef to gain popularity because her evocative and exquisite dishes speak for themselves. The food, service, atmosphere, and even decor have a boisterous spirit that's contagious--you'll be overjoyed to be there. I just wish the portions were bigger and the prices were cheaper. Extra Notes: -Accepts credit card -Make reservations before hand! I made mine 3 months in advance -Fantastic, suggestive service -Dim-lit, but loud environment--a fun place to dine or date. -Decor is beautiful in a hipsterish kind of way -The art work is almost psychodelic -Restrooms are clean

Five (5) stars and beyond for every food item. THE AMBIANCE: Girl and the Goat ("GG") is an upscale restaurant and bar. There is wood, brick, beautiful lighting, and interesting decorations. In terms of the look of the place, if you're from San Diego think Craft and Commerce but a larger space and bougie. If you're from Los Angeles think The Stocking Frame + the upscale feel of Perch. THE FOOD: Wow. Wow. Wow. I am in LOVE with GG's food. It was a group of four (4) of us and we tried a lot of things on the menu. The menu is split into vegetables, fish, meat, bread, oysters, goats, and desserts. The food is tapa-style and our waitress recommended getting a good amount of plates to share. Here is the list of what we tried and my thoughts: 1. Wood Grilled Broccoli: rogue smokey bleu cheese. spiced crispies. Even the non-brocolli eaters at the table could not get enough of this smokey and creamy treat. The broccoli was perfectly cooked - soft but also dense - and what made me smile were the rice crispies. So random but so perfect. 2. Hamachi Crudo: crisp pork belly. chili aioli. caperberries. Very light and refreshing. The hamachi was topped with crispy flakes, there were small slices of jalapeños and pineapple, and it also came with pieces of juicy pork. 3. Ham Frites: smoked tomato aioli. cheddar beer sauce. This platter is fries dusted in bacon with the sides of sauce noted above. 4. Wood Oven Roasted Pig Face: sunny side egg. tamarind. cilantro. red wine-maple. potato stix. The pig face was roasted to perfection. It was semi-fatty and caramelized. The yolk oozed onto the meat and created creaminess. I loved this! 5. Braised Beef Tongue: masa. beef vinaigrette. salsa verde. GG is very generous with the beef tongue in this dish. They fry the masa into a crispy chip and the rest of the plate is garnish and greens. the beef tongue was very tender. 6. Goat Empanadas: smoked blueberry tapenade. avocado. I really enjoyed the empanadas because they were the right amount of crispy and dense. The empanadas came atop a bed of mashed avocado and were sprinkled with cheese. The chef throws some soft cherries on top. The cherries are more juicy than sweet. 7. Confit Goat Belly: bourbon butter. lobster n' crab. fennel. The goat belly reminded me of the Wood Oven Roasted Pig Face ("PF") but the PF had a caramelized taste. This dish is a surf and turf option and comes upon a bed of what tasted to me like a smooth mashed potato but I could be wrong. Whatever it was, it was yummy. 8. Horchata Rice Pudding: rhubarb semifreddo. cinnamon toast crunch. Putting my I'm Mexican -I love horchata - I love arroz con leche - bias aside, I can honestly say this is the BEST dessert I have ever had in my LIFE. Rhubarb? Really? YES! What an odd mix of texture and flavor and what a fabulous explosion of deliciousness in my mouth. This cold horchata ball (semifreddo - semi-frozen dessert) that won't melt sits atop a warm rice pudding. On the side they place the rhubarb, which is crunchy and tart, and then on top of it all goes their homemade cinnamon toast crunch in pieces and two big chips at the top. It was ridiculous! You have to try this!! THE TIPS: Don't think about coming here - Do it! Try everything.

The food is delicious, the service is impeccable, and the ambiance is great (I love the low-lighting). We went for my birthday and everything was perfect. This is also an awesome first-date place. Every single menu item we ordered was perfect. Small plates was perfect for our group of 4. The only issue was that we waited over half an hour to be seated even when we had made a reservation weeks in advance. There was really no apology for the wait and people who came in after us were seated before us. Also it is INCREDIBLY LOUD. The room has high ceilings and I imagine some areas of the restaurant are louder than others, but we were in a booth along the wall and it was almost impossible to hear each other across the table. Which was especially upsetting since my dad doesn't have the best hearing in the world..

First time I went here it was one of the best experiences I had ever had at a restaurant. Had I experienced the same level of service upon my second visit, this place would be 5 star no doubt. However, my second (and last) visit ruined the place for me. Our waiter was rude, the food wasn't as great as the first time and we had to wait for everything (including water, they only filled our glasses once during our hour long meal). I had been raving to my fiancee about this place for months since our first visit and we took my parents there as one of the two restaurants we visited during their short stay in Chicago. I was embarrassed to have brought them based on our experience. I talked to a manager about my disappointment due to my amazing first experience and how I had expected more out of the establishment... he didn't seem to care at all. No problem, I will take my business elsewhere. Good service is only exceptional if it's consistent.

Let me just start off by saying that I wanted to give this place a five-star review SO bad. My mom and I were visiting from California, and we had made a 5PM reservation for a Wednesday. When we came in, we were seated immediately, but I did notice quite a lot of empty seats. I'm not sure if they were for walk-ins, but I still think that it was good that we had a reservation. The restaurant itself is huge and beautiful, and I loved the atmosphere of the place! This restaurant serves food in small dishes, so for two people, the waitress recommended three to four plates. We ordered the roasted cauliflower, the confit goat belly, the pig face, and the grilled baby octopus. Before I get into the food, I have to admit that the service here was AMAZING. The waiters and waitresses were super attentive and catered to our every need! Okay on to the food. The roasted cauliflower was SO GOOD. I wish I ordered two plates of that stuff! It was nice and smokey, and with the pine nuts and mint = DELICIOUS! The pig face was pretty good, but I don't really like the fatty-ish pieces of meat, so in retrospect I probably shouldn't have ordered this... The confit goat belly was delicious! The sauces that came with it were really interesting and I recommend that one. The only one I don't recommend is the grilled baby octopus. We were recommended this one by the waitress, and I thought the flavors were a little bit too strong altogether. It was little too salty, bitter, and while it wasn't bad, I just did not like it that much. Overall, it's a great restaurant to check out in Chicago, and if I ever find myself in the Windy City again, I will make a trip here!

Enjoyed dinner here while spending a couple of days visiting Chicago. I've eaten at a ton of restaurants that would call themselves some form of 'new american', and this is easily one of the best. The roasted pig face is a must order; definitely the highlight among a number of great dishes. We also had the confit goat belly and the escargot ravioli - both were extremely creative, complex and well executed dishes that we thoroughly enjoyed. Often I'm let down by the desserts at restaurants like this, but the miso-butterscotch budino was nothing short of spectacular. Will absolutely look to return here next time I'm in Chicago.

The food was incredible. We sat outside at a communal table in front. Tuesday night 1030. Still packed. When it was super awesome. And the only thing bad about this place is how loud it is inside. But that's the atmosphere you pay for. Still, one of the best restaurants in the city

Service was extremely slow and two of the items we ordered were no longer available by the end of the dinner even though we had already ordered them. Expected much more from such a highly regarded restaurant.

Lived up to the hype. The goat empanadas, the pigs face, the oysters were all delicious and slightly different than what you would get anywhere else- they put a spin on all their recipes! The star of the show however, was the halibut with blueberry nuoc cham. AMAZING flavour combination, I can't imagine how they come up with these things. As a special note, service here was outstanding. Very efficient without being intrusive. The waitstaff worked as a team- if any of them was passing by they would reflll our glasses or take away a plate. We loved our meal here

So I feel like we cheated a bit here, given that we'd heard so much about the Girl and the Goat from friends and that it's so highly reviewed. Nevertheless, we always choose 1 great restaurant to go to every time we visit my parents in the 'burbs (We're from Denver) and the Girl and the Goat had finally come up. In debating ratings, hubby and I agreed on a 5 because we simply could not think of a single dish that was anything less than excellent. The blueberry jam with the bread was rich, the bread itself having the right amount of butter. The green beans have ruined me for green beans ever again, with their delightful cashews and savory sauce. The chicken had just the right amount of smoked flavor to reflect a wood fired approach without being too smoky, and the halibut was polished off in seconds flat by my other half. We also loved the Pierogis and the service was on point (helpful without being obtrusive and with great (and enthusiastic) explanations of every dish). So many other nice touches, such as the fact that our water glasses never had the chance to be empty, the drinks were perfectly mixed and the server brought out a free birthday dessert for my husband (I'd noted it was his birthday in the reservations). Along those lines, be sure to save room for dessert! We ordered a second blackberry cake in addition to the budino (which wowed with its salty butterscotch flavor and homemade whipped cream) and both were incredible!

This is one of my all time fav places to eat! Great vibe, professional and well trained staff and the food is AMAZING! The pork sandwich here is not to be missed! Great brunch options too!
(5)Mike K.
Great food and professional service! Need a reso months in advance or chance it at the bar or lounge area. Top 5 spots in chi-city!
(5)Robert K.
Girl and The Goat is an outstanding establishment. Quality service and quality takes on signature goat dishes which will send your taste buds on a Heavenly goose chase.
(5)B M.
Great atmosphere with knowledgable staff...and the best part is the FOOD! It's all great and most of the items get changed out so you are likely to always have a chance to try something new. Only downside is that it's so popular reserving a table can be difficult to get a time that works for you and your party. But I guess that's a good sign right?

Im not sure where to begin! This place is absolutely amazing! If you are an adventurous eater, and into "different" things, than this is a place that I would put on your list when in Chicago. The owner is Stephanie Izard, who won Top Chef (the Bravo TV show), she opened the Girl and The Goat, back in 2010. While doing some research for our trip, this place kept coming up! Then one night, we were watching a show on FoodNetwork, and yet again, we saw this place! After reading some reviews on yelp, I called (a month in advance) and made a reservation! After taking a look at the menu, we decided on a few different things. I should mention that these are all small dishes, so our waitress recommended we order between 5-7, which of course we did! We ordered the Spring Onion Pierogies, Goat Empanadas, Squash Blossom Crab Rangoon, Grilled Baby Octopus, the Tartare Special, and one of the bread specials, that I can remember at the moment! Everything was so AMAZING!!! Perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and a decent portion! Definitely enough for two people to share! We also, had two cocktails (La Paloma...yes!!!!!) and for dessert we had the Chocolate Truffle cake, which, well, just try it!!! All in all everything was amazing! The atmosphere is pretty awesome as well, lots of seating, open kitchen concept, so you see all the chefs working, which I personally enjoy. Our waitress was fantastic, so sweet, so informative and so attentive!! If you plan on coming, MAKE A RESERVATION!!!!! Enjoy!

The hubby and I dined the Girl & the Goat three years ago but made the huge mistake of having a large lunch beforehand and early reservation here. We were too full to enjoy the meal. This time, we came starving. We ordered the three types of oysters (four oysters in each order) which came raw, barbecued and fried. Delicious. We also got the escargot ravioli as well as the goat's liver mousse with its yummy bread, tasty green beans and the famous pig's face. All the dishes were delicious and left us feeling very satisfied.
(4)Nadezda S.
Favorite ,we go every three or four months and i like it more every time!!!
(5)Anonymous O.
So delicious! We were served quickly, and our waiter was charming and took the time to talk to us. Definitely order the goat empanadas. Girl and the Goat is an experience! Definitely one of the best restaurants in Chicago.
(5)Christine O.
I came here with my friend and my fiance as a pre-holiday dinner out together. The food here is ever cutting edge and top notch, you really cannot go wrong. I've entertained clients here before and everyone is always impressed. My only complaint is that the food tends to be over salted for my taste and after a couple of dishes, it feels like my taste buds are deadened from salt overload.
(4)Dave S.
If you've read my other reviews you'll know it's extremely rare for me to give a 5-star rating, but in this case it could not be more warranted. I've been wanting to come here for several years and finally had an opportunity to cross it off my bucket list during a business trip in June 2015. I brought along two employees, one of which is extremely hard to please, and neither were disappointed (actually got some huge thank yous for introducing them). We had called to make reservations over a month in advance for a Sunday evening, but they were booked solid. They still told us we could try and slide in, or opt to sit at the bar. Upon arrival it was pretty cozy with a sectioned off patio on the street out front. Nothing pretentious or overdone with regard to the decor - just a warm inviting place. They have a solid beer and spirit selection, and while I went with a couple of bourbons and an IPA with the main meal I was pretty enticed by their signature drinks. The bartender brought us a complimentary order of the green beans which were served with a very savory sauce - good stuff. We opted to go tapas style and started with the goat empanadas and the calamari over goat ricotta bruschetta, both of which were excellent. The empanadas were crisp with very tender goat inside. Not a huge fan of the blueberries served with this (also included crumbled goat cheese and crushed pecans over guacamole I believe), but it actually worked. The calamari bruschetta was truly great and highly recommended (menu description: clam baguette. goat milk ricotta. goat bacon. green tomato). Wish I could have two more plates of it right now, but sadly I'm back in Atlanta. We then shared two orders of the pork belly and the pork shank (they had sold out of the goat shank. WOW. Both were phenomenal and a must-try if you only have one night in town. Menu descriptions below, but sadly didn;t catch a shot of the pork belly dishes in my attachments. grilled marinated pork belly castelfranco. sauce green. blackberries crisp braised pork shank buttermilk dressing. grilled spring onion kimchee. naan

I am getting sick of restaurants serving food from the kitchen when they want without any plan of what goes with what and matching the tastes with the order of the plates. This restaurant had such good hype I was expecting more. Our entree and side flavors did not blend in the palate. The sides were huge and came near the end of the meal and who wants spicy cauliflower then. The goat empanadas filling was ok but the crust was limp and undercooked. The chicken in mole sauce was ok nothing special. The pan roasted halibut was not bad. The place is lively and energetic. The service was too attentive in not a good way like they wanted us out of there. the waitress kept coming over to ask us if we wanted to order like every five minutes crazy.
(3)P B.
Really enjoyed ourselves. Absolutely great food! Squash blossoms - crab rangoon style, superb Calamari bruschetta - perfectly cooked Chickpea fritters - piping hot and tasty Goat belly confit - tender Pig face - make sure to mix with maple sauce. So good All the flavors worked well. Food was wonderfully executed. Cocktails were tasty. The thai one on smelled like thai food :) service was fantastic! Our waiter was on point. Bus crew was swift. No complaints out of me! Will be back for more
(5)Sarah P.
love this place, lucked into a table. Good recommendations from the servers, actually afordable for a dinner out, fun vibe. Love.

Service was fantastic. Food was amazing. Just a wonderful experience overall. Worth the hype. Can't wait to go back!
(5)Lauren B.
Making our reservations, months in advance I had such high hopes for this place. I was really let down by the food. It was just ok, but nothing blew my mind. We were seated on the other side of a glass partition from the bar, which was super annoying because people kept looking at our food and asking us questions while we were eating. They really shouldn't have seating there. As far a service goes, we were in and out in under an hour. I've been to many restaurants with long waits, and I have never been rushed like that in my entire life. I felt like we had no time to enjoy our food because they were bringing out dishes so quickly. We were shoveling food down our throats before the next dish arrived. I suggested the owners visit Parachute because they are just as busy and don't rush you out the door. Plus their food is way better. We started with the taco bread, which was delicious, but sadly the highlight of our eating experience here. We also ordered the stuffed squash blossoms, goat empanadas, green garlic pierogies, the pig face, chickpea fritters, and the octopus. Everything was just ok. If I didn't know it was goat, I wouldn't be able to tell it apart from any other protein. It lack any discernible flavor. The octopus was very disappointing. I'm all for char in my food, but this was burnt, and and acrid burnt flavor took over the entire dish. Everything else was just ok.

Stopped by on a Monday night without reservations, but we were able to get seated at 4:30 (opening) as long as we were out by 6 p.m. I was so happy they were able to accommodate us after hearing all the great things my friend had to say about this place (then I realized this is Stephanie Izard's place and I HAD to come). We were seated at a communal table, which was fine by me. Before coming, I had done my research aka read through Yelp and knew what I wanted before we were even seated. The hostess was super friendly and kind, and so was our server Kelly. She asked if we were first timers and gave us a great run-down of the menu, which is always appreciated when you're new to a place. La Paloma: I asked our server if this or the Local 75 was more sour and she pointed me to La Paloma. Loved it and it was definitely perfect for my tastes -- I like my cocktails sour and tart to the point that I can't taste the alcohol in it :P Hamachi Crudo: Even though the pork belly was very good, I wasn't impressed by this dish. Hamachi and crispy pork belly make a surprisingly delicious combination, but this didn't live up to the "hype" of Girl and the Goat for me. I'd skip this dish unless you really love hamachi and/or pork belly. Goat Carpaccio: We though since we were here, why not try some goat. The boyfriend and I both never had goat before this and thought we'd go all out with raw meat. Good dish, but nothing impressive. Roasted Cauliflower: Almost every Yelp review mentioned this dish, so of course we had to get it. And finally, a dish that lived up to my expectations! This was my favorite dish of the night and I could've just eaten three orders of this and been happy. The mint, pine nuts, peppers were perfect with the roasted cauliflower -- such a unique, great combo. This is a MUST ORDER dish. Pan Roasted Halibut: Yes. Yes. Yes. I'm not a big fan of fish, but this was SO good. The fish was a touch overcooked (dry =/) but the sauce fixed that problem. The menu says the fish comes/is cooked with a marcona almond butter and blueberry nuoc cham, which reminds me of a ponzu-y flavor but more sour and pungent. Wood Oven Roasted Pig Face: The boyfriend was hesitant about this after I told him I wanted to try it. Days before we hit up Girl and the Goat, he goes on Google and reads about how the dish is made, which really does involve cooking the pig's face. When the dish came, that was all the could think about and could only eat so much. He was definitely overthinking it and weirding himself out, but I loved it. It has a taste that reminds me of teriyaki, but I can't quite put my finger on what food it reminds me off. But whatever. It's delicious. Order it. While some dishes were underwhelming, the overall experience was great. Our water was constantly refilled and they switched out our dirty dishes three times. Kelly came back and checked on us a few times -- not so much that she was annoying, and not so little that we felt she forgot about us. I'd definitely come back again if I'm ever in Chicago again!

Great food, but don't over order. One to one and half plates is great per person unless you're starving. Bring friends so you can share lots of different items.
(5)Issa R.
Went in to try it because of all the hype I have heard from friends. It has surpassed my expectations. Great place, great food, great staff.
(5)Stephen V.
Hype....upscale....hipster....yes to all of these descriptors! But the food! Wow! About 15 line chefs and more in the back dance to the tune of some great symphony to produce some of the most amazing and unique dishes ever. The pig's face (really hipster: bacon and eggs) is a MUST! The broccoli: do not leave this place without ordering this huge plate of heaven-food! The copper river salmon was a bit small but delicious. We wanted to get the whole fish! The wine is a bit pricey: do not order the "house" wines: they are the most expensive. There are some good wines, so read the list carefully. The butterscotch dessert was a sleeper and amazing! A 4 month wait for a reservation? No way, no restaurant is that good. Just show up 20 minutes before they open and they will fit a "couple" in somewhere. Very nice about it too. The service was absolutely first class! Fun, delicious and you should go......
(5)Ghienhel S.
Excellent service & always a fun & lively atmosphere. I normally don't love small plates (mostly bc I've done it SO much), but this menu serves well as small portions. It's a great way to try dishes you'd never order as an entire meal.
(5)Brian R.
Super unique food choices. Loved everything. Had about 6 different drinks and each one was outstanding. There's so many great things I could say, but I'd be writing all day. If you're going here make sure to book in advance. We did a 2 month booking before hand. Also make sure to go with a group of people. It makes it so much fun. Oysters, cauliflower, octopus, and their pig face are some of my highest recommendations. Also, be open to trying new things you wouldn't think you'd live. I'm pretty sure you'll change your mind! Enjoy :)
(5)Meghana P.
I will admit that I was a little skeptical that Girl & the Goat might be overrated, given how much I've heard about it in my time in Chicago. Furthermore, as a vegetarian, one often misses out on the dishes places like these are known for. However, the restaurant did not disappoint at all. Our waiter was friendly and charming, and recommended a variety of dishes given the dietary restrictions so I didn't feel restricted at all. I can't remember the exact dishes we ordered (the excellent wine might have contributed to that), but everything was delicious and full of different flavours. I found myself loving innovative dishes I wouldn't normally have thought I would (given the ingredients), and literally every dish was enjoyable. Our table was so stuffed after that we (almost) didn't have room for dessert, which also did not disappoint.
(5)Amanda D.
Foods are delicious!
(4)Grace K.
First stop off the plane was straight to Girl & the Goat. It's sharing style and the waiter recommended 4 dishes for 2 people and that was the perfect amount. We tried the shisito peppers which is covered in parm cheese. Beets, which were different from the usual and mixed with anchovy, avocado sauce, and bread crumbs. The escargot ravioli lived up to its hype. The pig face was good... like a breakfast hash but not as mind blowing as I expected. Wish I had a second stomach to try more. The drinks were solid with the Italian grandpa being my favorite. It's like a negroni. Great atmosphere.
(4)Thanh T.
The wait is pretty long but we snagged some lounge seats in 5 minutes instead. The food was awesome. My friend and I ordered a bunch of different things to split and try. Favorites were the fish and oyster we ordered.
(4)Shauna M.
Love what this restaurant has done for the neighborhood over the years. So many memories. Everything about this restaurant has been said many times over. Pork Shoulder and Cauliflower will always be the favorites.
(5)Ian S.
My wife is a big foodie, and I am not. I prefer down home cooking, of the kind you might find at any of a hundred cornerside burger and hotdog places in Chicago. But, I am down with the Girl & the Goat. It's one of the high dining places that we can both enjoy. Win.
(5)Jassu J.
If you're ever in Chicago you must come here. Worth the hype. The dishes are small so you can get several and share them. We loved every single dish that we ordered. Taco bread, chickpea fritters, goat empanadas, halibut. All amazing. We were scared to try the pig's face but it ended up being our favorite dish. So good! We ended the meal with the miso butterscotch budino. We didn't have reservations, so we got there at 4:30pm. We were seated within 15 minutes. They gave us an hour and half time limit to eat, which was more than enough. The servers did a great job of bringing out the next dish just as you were finishing up the one in front of you. Don't leave Chicago without trying this place.
(5)Philip V.
I can never resist provocative flavors and innovative dishes and Girl & the Goat delivers on both fronts. ----The Food---- Crisp Braised Pork Shank ($26)- WOW. One bite of this tender, succulent pork shank and I delved into my own happy world--nothing else mattered. Sharing this flavorful creation will be the worst part of your meal. The Kimchee wing sauce and buttermilk dressing make perfect, tasteful dips for the pillowy soft naan too. Roasted Pig Face ($18)- This wood oven dish was good, but fell short of expectations, especially since it's one of the more popular signature plates on the menu. It comes with a sunny side egg, crispy potato stix, drizzled in tamarind vinaigrette, red-wine maple sauce and cilantro oil. It's reminiscent of the pig face at Animal in LA, but more subdued in taste. It's messy, it's good, just not mind blowing. Grilled Marinated Pork Belly ($15)- Served with radicchio and an aromatic green sauce resembling pureed cilantro and avocado, this pork belly plate had an uplifting, light flavor, but the consistency of the pork belly was oft-putting. I felt it was undercooked, giving it a chewier consistency than I can bear. Confit Goat Belly ($19)- While I'm a big fan of this order, I disliked the tiny portion. Smothered in heavy bourbon butter and sprinkled sparingly with lobster/crab, it's a comforting plate that didn't taste as gamey as I thought it would. Roasted Cauliflower ($11)- Accompanied with pickled peppers, pine nuts and mint, it's a refreshing appetizer that is as good as Bar Ama's in LA. Pan Roasted Halibut ($18)- I hate fish, but this masterpiece melts in your mouth and makes your eyes roll back to your skull. Made with marcona almond butter, white asparagus, blueberry nuoc cham, the flavors are wonderfully surprising and unique. Amazing. ----- Conclusion: 4.5 Stars. Your inner carnivore will thank you, after giving the Girl & the Goat a visit. I believe Chef Izard didn't need to be on Top Chef to gain popularity because her evocative and exquisite dishes speak for themselves. The food, service, atmosphere, and even decor have a boisterous spirit that's contagious--you'll be overjoyed to be there. I just wish the portions were bigger and the prices were cheaper. Extra Notes: -Accepts credit card -Make reservations before hand! I made mine 3 months in advance -Fantastic, suggestive service -Dim-lit, but loud environment--a fun place to dine or date. -Decor is beautiful in a hipsterish kind of way -The art work is almost psychodelic -Restrooms are clean

One of the best spots in Chicago. The food is great, unique and reasonably priced. Winning combination

G & G. Was so good! This is a late review a friend and I were there 2 or so years ago but the experience was so good I still remember how amazing the food was.

Five (5) stars and beyond for every food item. THE AMBIANCE: Girl and the Goat ("GG") is an upscale restaurant and bar. There is wood, brick, beautiful lighting, and interesting decorations. In terms of the look of the place, if you're from San Diego think Craft and Commerce but a larger space and bougie. If you're from Los Angeles think The Stocking Frame + the upscale feel of Perch. THE FOOD: Wow. Wow. Wow. I am in LOVE with GG's food. It was a group of four (4) of us and we tried a lot of things on the menu. The menu is split into vegetables, fish, meat, bread, oysters, goats, and desserts. The food is tapa-style and our waitress recommended getting a good amount of plates to share. Here is the list of what we tried and my thoughts: 1. Wood Grilled Broccoli: rogue smokey bleu cheese. spiced crispies. Even the non-brocolli eaters at the table could not get enough of this smokey and creamy treat. The broccoli was perfectly cooked - soft but also dense - and what made me smile were the rice crispies. So random but so perfect. 2. Hamachi Crudo: crisp pork belly. chili aioli. caperberries. Very light and refreshing. The hamachi was topped with crispy flakes, there were small slices of jalapeños and pineapple, and it also came with pieces of juicy pork. 3. Ham Frites: smoked tomato aioli. cheddar beer sauce. This platter is fries dusted in bacon with the sides of sauce noted above. 4. Wood Oven Roasted Pig Face: sunny side egg. tamarind. cilantro. red wine-maple. potato stix. The pig face was roasted to perfection. It was semi-fatty and caramelized. The yolk oozed onto the meat and created creaminess. I loved this! 5. Braised Beef Tongue: masa. beef vinaigrette. salsa verde. GG is very generous with the beef tongue in this dish. They fry the masa into a crispy chip and the rest of the plate is garnish and greens. the beef tongue was very tender. 6. Goat Empanadas: smoked blueberry tapenade. avocado. I really enjoyed the empanadas because they were the right amount of crispy and dense. The empanadas came atop a bed of mashed avocado and were sprinkled with cheese. The chef throws some soft cherries on top. The cherries are more juicy than sweet. 7. Confit Goat Belly: bourbon butter. lobster n' crab. fennel. The goat belly reminded me of the Wood Oven Roasted Pig Face ("PF") but the PF had a caramelized taste. This dish is a surf and turf option and comes upon a bed of what tasted to me like a smooth mashed potato but I could be wrong. Whatever it was, it was yummy. 8. Horchata Rice Pudding: rhubarb semifreddo. cinnamon toast crunch. Putting my I'm Mexican -I love horchata - I love arroz con leche - bias aside, I can honestly say this is the BEST dessert I have ever had in my LIFE. Rhubarb? Really? YES! What an odd mix of texture and flavor and what a fabulous explosion of deliciousness in my mouth. This cold horchata ball (semifreddo - semi-frozen dessert) that won't melt sits atop a warm rice pudding. On the side they place the rhubarb, which is crunchy and tart, and then on top of it all goes their homemade cinnamon toast crunch in pieces and two big chips at the top. It was ridiculous! You have to try this!! THE TIPS: Don't think about coming here - Do it! Try everything.
