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.

    Absolutely delightful experience! It was our first time and our server Jacob walked us through the menu and made recommendations. We ordered his suggestions and loved everything. We will return.

    Drinks were well crafted, service was great and the food was absolutely amazing. Broiled Oysters, Skirt steak, beets and the goat belly were the highlights of our dinner.

    Overall fantastic. Our server was awesome and the food was excellent. Pricing was a little high for portion sizes, but the quality makes up for it. If you can get a reservation, do it. You will not be disappointed.

    Had high hopes for the girl and the goat. However, food was a big disappointment. We tried the green beans. Over cooked and severely over sauced. Also tried the smoke chicken dish. Chicken itself was ok, but the sauce was over bearing. The pig face dish was good, but definitely not worth what we paid.

    A truly special dining experience, every dish was incredible and the wine pairing suggestion was on point. I appreciated the close attention to detail with my food allergies and was able to get several dishes modified in a way that didn’t appear to compromise on flavor! It’s a beautiful and comfortable space as well.
