Everything was great from the moment we walked in the door. We were early for our reservation and they easily accommodated us. Every person to come to our table was nice and helpful great staff. The bone marrow was excellent as were all the steaks our party ordered. The dessert was a great end to our meal as well. Would definitely return.

We were surprised to be seated at the counter overlooking the kitchen and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The chefs and front-of-house teams are amazing to watch in action. Every dish is so flavorful and creative and you never know what is coming next from your selections. Just note, it can get very loud since orders are being called out in addition to the already energetic restaurant behind you if you're seated in this location. Another great dinner at Girl & the Goat!
