place. So get off your butt and make a reservation. If you're visiting Chicago then run, do not walk, RUN to this place. The bf took me here a couple weeks ago for our anniversary & i was super excited because i am big fan of Top Chef and was looking forward to finally eat @ The Girl and the Goat. we started off with the choco loco bread, our server noted that the bread was baked fresh daily. the bread had a really interesting flavor with a hint of chocolate, rustic but very tasty with the spread that was served with it. i liked how the menu is set up with small plates because we were able to try a little bit of everything; our server reccomended that about 4-5 small plates would be good for us. so we went with the sweet potato gratin, seared scallops, smoked goat pizza & the skirt steak. our food was served pretty quickly & the smoked goat pizza came out first and it was pretty big portion, i'm kind of picky but i was open to trying the goat meat..the flavors with the cheese and meat were really good and something different. the seared scallops were really good it had fresh vegetables and pumpkin seeds, our server also made note of my nut allergy and i appreciated the fact that when the food was expedited they made sure there were no nuts in the dish. i think our favorite dish was the skirt steak..the beets and all the vegetables that were in the dish were sooo delicious & the meat was cooked perfectly. we almost wanted to order a second serving of it! we ended our meal with the bittersweet chocolate cake topped with shitake gelato..i thought the gelato might taste weird since i never really thought of having something with mushrooms for dessert. the dessert was actually very yummy though had the perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors. overall we had a great experience at girl & the goat..the ambience with the fireplace and layout is really nice. the service is really great too & i appreciated all the reccomendations that our server made since it was our first time dining there. when we ordered the smoked goat pizza he noted that it would count for about a dish and a half, so i appreciated that he didn't want us to over order. he even asked us if we wanted to take a photo/meet stephanie izzard but then realized she wasn't there for the evening..so i guess we'll have to go back and hopefully we'll run into her next time we dine there!!! My friend and I made these reservations MONTHS in advance and ended up having to make one for 4:00 pm, which we were a little worried about just because it was so early. We arrived right on time and sat at the bar for a little while to try and work up an appetite. About 20 minutes later, we were seated and a very friendly waitress came over to assist us. We weren't really sure exactly what we wanted, and she advised us to order a little bit of everything and just share it all. She pointed us in the right direction with various dishes including some bacon doused fries, a few different meat plates, some incredibly fresh bread, calamari and delicious fried chickpeas. She also timed all the dishes
