Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Little Italy / University Village

Delicious food , good service. The interior is warm and old school steak house vibes with a modern touch. We had baked clams, burrata salad , cacio y Pepe and the monkfish everything was cooked perfect and had great flavor. Will be back for sure

Staff, food, ambiance… everything was perfect. We were lucky enough to get 2 seats at the counter overlooking the kitchen. The ballet was spectacular with all those chefs working together. We had an early reservation and when we left, we could see that it was a trendy place as lot of young preppy looking were coming in. I highly recommend 🥰

I cannot count the number of visits we've had to The Girl and the Goat, but it continues to be a favorite for both personal and professional dining. I brought three colleagues, who have never been, to the restaurant for dinner. One diner is vegetarian, but there are menu offerings and options available to provide them with enough to eat. All three were quite impressed with the food. My only complaint would be our table was right next to the kitchen, which can be loud. However, we made due, and had an enjoyable meal. Service is always very good, and the cocktails are fun. If you're interested in dining, make sure you book way ahead, as there is almost no chance to get a table day of.

We were celebrating our anniversary and Elske exceeded our expectations not only with their food, but with their service and kindness. They made accommodations for food allergies and were one of the best meals we’ve ever had.

They were very accommodating to our large group. Great service great food.
