    We were surprised to be seated at the counter overlooking the kitchen and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The chefs and front-of-house teams are amazing to watch in action. Every dish is so flavorful and creative and you never know what is coming next from your selections. Just note, it can get very loud since orders are being called out in addition to the already energetic restaurant behind you if you're seated in this location. Another great dinner at Girl & the Goat!

    I have eaten here a handful of times and enjoyed every meal. So delicious, so healthy! My only issue is that the noise level is high when the restaurant is full, but that is more a personal limitation than anything critical of the restaurant.
