Tasting plates, so go with friends and order plenty! For the two of us we ordered an appetizer, 3 plates, and dessert. Another plate would have been good. Average plate is between $10 -$15. Desserts $8. Parking: We found free street parking, which was probably luck. They do have valet for $10. Stephani Izare is no joke. Saw her on TOP chef and wanted to try this place. Her food was beyond what i expected. Waited 2.5 hours to get a table (good luck without a resi), but the wait wasn't so bad because we started eating in the lounge. the wait was fully worth it. Besides having to make reservations months in advance,i do really like this place. It's low key, chilled out, young and bursting with flavour. The prices are low for what you're getting, but they can afford to do that with the sheer volume of customers this place serves. The food is exceptional. The menu is small and simple (broken into three categories), but there's something for everyone. Being a tapas style menu,
it makes for a fun and intimate night with friends too, because you will want to share. I wouldn't say that there is a theme to the restaurant (besides ofcourse the fact that there is alot of goat on the menu). The flavours are from all over the world. But it makes for an interesting time because every dish is unique and always seems to have something upexected as a flavour. sometimes however, dishes can get lost in the one flavour you really don't enjoy, so if you're into simplicity, this place is probably not for you. I want to keep coming back here. It's the kind of place that would be a no brainer for dinner if you have friends from out of town, a birthday, or just a night to catch up. The quality/taste to price ratio makes it so valuable that you can't not go here. This is my favorite restaurant in Chicago! I've been four times, and it's one of the few places that lives up to the hype. I can't wait to go again, but unfortunately, the next weekend reservation I could get whe
n I called two weeks ago is in May. Yep, it's January and my next confirmed visit is in May. The menu changes seasonally, but my favorite dishes have been the pork spare ribs (lots of meat, and it falls right off the bone), the green beans with cashews the cauliflower, and the sugo. The last three dishes I mention appear to be staples as they have been on the menu every time I dined at Girl and the Goat. I also highly recommend choosing one of the artisan breads to start your meal. The bread menu changes frequently, but I've never been
