for 7pm reservations and we waited in the bar until 745pm. I was pissed. Plus the place was loud, which I am not a big fan of. BUT, when we sat down our waiter instantly apologized for the wait (the hostess had already apologized, but that's standard hostess stuff) and said that the manager would like to buy us a round of drinks. Wait a minute, now we're getting somewhere. That was out of the blue. We hadn't bitched. So now they've dug their way out of the hole. Our waiter, Meadows, was awesome. The place was very busy and he did a great job of checking in with us. I've had worse service from places that were half empty. He was great and his recommendations were spot on. On top of that, the manager checked in with us and the hostess remembered us on the way out and thanked us for being patient. Bottom line is that while they may be still working out some opening bumps and they are getting slammed while they are the hot new place, they are working their asses off to make i
t good. Mission accomplished. Pan Fried Shishito Peppers ($7) & Roasted Caulifower ($11) dishes..... the two plates that keep running through my mind, tempting me to make another reservation right away! I went to dinner with my husband and sister last week, sharing 6 plates. It was easy and encouraged to share, and we all left full (& satisfied). We had to wait about 10 minutes despite our reservation at 11 PM (not bad), but enjoyed great service throughout our meal. The restaurant is well-designed and creates a pleasant, rustic-modern atmosphere. From our table, we had a view of the kitchen, which is brightly lit, contrasting with the dimmer main floor, where we were seated. It was nice to have that glimpse of where the magic happens....aka where the dreamy shishito and cauliflowers are prepared. I have been to girl and the goat a couple times now and feel ready to write a review. On my last visit, my wife and I made a reservation for a friday night towards the end of December.
As expected, the restaurant was hopping and very lively. It is on the louder end of the spectrum when it comes to dining and definitely set up to have a casual and fun experience. The attire is typical of the other casual restaurants on Randolph. We sat at the bar for a bit; I enjoyed a tasty brown ale and my wife a rum and coke. The beer list is fun. I love going into a place where there are beers on the list that I have yet to try. After a couple drinks we were seated. We must have been having a bad hair day or
