here and share my opinion that I just didn't enjoy my experience. I met some girlfriends here for dinner and we were super excited to try it. I hadn't eaten since noon, and was very ready to chow down. Unfortunately, "chowing down" at Girl and the Goat is impossible because the small plates are even smaller than any tapas I've ever had. There is no option just to get an entree, so I was surprised when each tiny plate of food costs $15-20 each! I understood going in that this would not be cheap, but I mean, come on! We're not in New York. The food was good, wine list good, drinks good - but it was all pretty mediocre. I've gotten better creative dishes at HB in Lakeview and you get way more bang for your buck there. I ended up leaving there in kind of a state of shock (and not just because we were basically hounded by the bus boys until we left our table) because I didn't know what to think. It all went by so fast and so underwhelmingly - and left me hungry. On a positive note: the gr
een beans *almost* saved the entire night. But when I realized that the only thing I loved there was the side of green beans... 2 stars it is. I don't know the girl of which they speak here, or even the goat suggested by the moniker, but I do know this: if you're shoehorning an extended table full of burgeoning food-o-philes (one of whom was in her third trimester and ready to dine fine), I'd recommend Girl and the Goat with the huge, theatrical gestures of the recently full. We ate like kings here, we really did, and the service was exemplary. It's a somewhat modern gestalt at play with semi-industrial touches, and though the room and the bar are somewhat divided, the place tends to play very open concept. This comes in handy when you want to feel like your meal's perhaps more than a meal, or say, an 'occasion' where the time you spend with those at your table is to be remembered. They may not be inventing fire here, but what they do they do quite well. You've likely sorted by this
point that dishes tend to come family style and are meant for sharing, and among our samplings I recall a soft spot for the grilled beef short ribs (served with edamame and a scallion vinaigrette) and the ham frittes (which came accented by smoked tomato aioli). Other menu items
