beyond delicious, but my three favorites were the pig face, goat empanadas and the scallops. But, honestly? Pig face. Amazing. For as popular as this place is, the atmosphere is so NOT pretentious. Employees are extremely friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. One of my friends is on a tragic gluten free diet and was afraid she could eat nothing on the menu. However, our waitress was super helpful in explaining what she could/could not eat. My friend was ecstatic, to say the least. It now makes complete sense why these reservations are hard to come by. Plan ahead, people -- it's SO worth it. And, if you can only score a 10:15 reservation...on a Wednesday night...the day before a major meeting, TAKE IT. It'll be the best decision you've ever made. To quote my waiter tonight, She's either mad or a genius! Well awesome waiter (Brennan was totally great as was his trainee), Stephanie Izard is an evil culinary genius....minus the evil part! They don't let just anyone win Top C
hef. It's been a year since my last review so thought it was time for an update! The pig face remains my favorite dish at Girl & The Goat. Do not skip this when you go! Topped with a sunny side up egg & other yummies, this dish is mouthwatering and every bite is out of this world. Tonight I tried the bloody mary bread which I'd never had before and it did not disappoint. They bake their bread perfectly with every bite being so soft with scrumptious worcestershire butter to top it off. You must get one of their breads when you go! They always offer three choices for $4 - ever changing flavors, and those ever changing flavors are so unique. I also tried the sugo tonight which I had never had before. Personally I'm not into the gooseberries but sans that touch this dish was delicious! We shared five dishes + bread between the two of us tonight and left completely stuffed beyond belief. Note to self for next time: Four dishes + bread will suffice---- it's just so hard to pick between
