was a candy or cotton candy flavored hint to the lobster that made this Really intriguing to eat. Never tasted that combo of flavors before. A 6 star in my book. 5 - bread. Get it. Fresh, warm, amazing spread with some nuts in it were a perfect complement. 4 - pork ribs. This would be a 5 star rating at another restaurant as it is executed perfectly, insanely tender falling of bone. Nothing overly inventive here, so if you've had insanely good tender pork ribs before at a great Texas or Memphis bbq, this won't be substantially different. 4 - pig face This might also be a 5. But after 6 dishes btw 2 ppl I was basically full, and tipsy, so while still great, my palette had already died and gone to goat heaven. 4 - cauliflower. Roasted and good. But a veggie is a veggie is a veggie. My fav restaurant veggie would still be the roasted/seared Brussels sprouts that many restaurants do really well. 4 - duck tongue. I love excellent beef tongue at many a yakitori place. This was probab ly not as good, speaking of the duck's tongue itself (which was not a few tender slabs, but rather a scattering of bits of fried duck tongue). Of course the other components on the plate turned it into still a great dish, but standalone duck tongue didn't wow me. Fun tho to try. 7 dishes is def more than enough for two guys. Wish we saved room for dessert. No man-date is complete without dessert. Cocktails were fantastic - i could describe them, but just ask your server as his recs were spot on for my prefs. 3 month reservation is just insane! Instead we just came in on a Saturday at 6pm, put our names down and the wait was quoted a couple hours for 2 ppl (small percentage of tables r reserved for walk-ins). An hour and a half later they offered us a table but told us they'd need it back by 9pm. So while we were rushed as 9 approached, I was not upset. We didn't finish all bits and drinks until 920pm, but i figure if the other couple waited 3 months for their reso, what's another 20 minutes riiight? :) Or come at 430pm when they open. Prolly my new fav resto in Chicago. Will try to make it back again soon if someone's willing to wait a couple hours for a walk-up reservation. I have been waiting to try out Girl & The Goat for years, my plans to travel back to Chicago never seemed to allow me enough time to go so this time I made a point to get reservations way in advance, so I called over two months before my trip. I still ended up with a 4:30pm reservation on Friday, which was better than the only other
