Our meal at Girl & the Goat was wonderful! The service was friendly and helpful. He knew the menu and ensured our experience delicious. We began our dinner with the naan. The dips served alongside were excellent. Next we enjoyed the chickpea fritters that we crisp with creamy inside, accented by pomegranate. We definitely wanted to try the goat empanadas, and were glad that we did. Our next course that we enjoyed were the wood-fired mussels. The broth was delicious. We ended with the roasted pig face. Our server enticed us with dessert. We finished our meal with the apple hand pie. Overall, we loved this place.

My wife and 4 of our friends dined here and we couldn’t have been happier with everything! The food was delicious, drinks were tasty and the service was impeccable. My wife has allergies to certain foods and our waiter worked with the chef’s staff to modify the menu for her! We definitely will be going back.

Amazing food and staff. I have never been more grateful with the staff at a restaurant than with the staff at Hide + Seek. Due to certain events, I was late to my reservation. The staff was kind enough to extend our time even when we were only allotted 90 minutes. Extremely grateful! Will definitely be returning! This time on time! 😉

The absolutely best meal of my life. A symphony! A genuine work of art. Every note true. Every bite better and different than the one before. All enhanced by service that was warm, genuine, knowledgeable, and felt entirely personal, like they had no place they wanted to be other than making our dining experience the best it could be. I was buzzing, my brain fizzing with delight all the way back to the hotel and then some. I can’t wait to come back to Chicago to see what these gastronomic magic makers come up with next!
