    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

    Had an excellent experience at Andy’s. The food was amazing; we ordered the Cajun shrimp risotto and the Caribbean grilled salmon. The salmon was juicy and delightful. The shrimp risotto was phenomenal as well. Loved the espresso martini! The music was great too and the entire vibe / experience.

    It was very pleasant New Year Day Brunch. We had an excellent experience. The only one thing I would like to comment on is that even though the 20% tip was already added to the bill , on the credit card receipt, it was asking again for a tip ! We thought it was kinda tacky....

    Birthday dinner. All of the staff was great, offering complimentary treats along with the meal. Cocktails and the meal was very good. Sauces overpowered some of the dishes, but overall very good.
