Since 1972, we’ve believed in quality ingredients, cooking from scratch and having fun. From our famous ‘Shrooms and Stuffed Chicken Breast to our unique burger blend and ahi tuna, we believe in celebrating the small things and that every moment deserves a toast in its honor. So grab a drink (perhaps our signature Long Island Iced Tea), enjoy some great conversation and let us serve you an excellent meal.

    My 2nd time here and it did not disappoint. The food was good as usual. We ordered the Bacon slab and the eggplant chips. 2 people at my table got the burger, which they loved and we also got a Pizza, Duck and the Spicy penna alla vodka - all good. For Dessert - the Ice cream sandwich is the best - and I recommend that! Our waiter had a training waiter with him, but both of them worked together seamlessly though the night - with no hiccups! We stayed beyond 10pm, but the folks working there were not pushy in shoving us out the door, which is always appreciated to feel welcomed! Thank you Goat Staff!

    Would have been 5 stats but booked the dining room and got stuck in the bar because they had a party. Was never notified and was really disappointed but the food was fantastic and the manager was so apologetic and made it up to us. Will go again but if we have the same problem will never go back, amazing food or not

    Again, this neighborhood gem didn’t disappoint! The chicken tortilla soup was delicious as were the Shrooms! One guest had the full rack of spare ribs! Enough for two meals and “fall off the bone “ delicious . Two other guests had burgers - they were very happy with their choice . I had meatloaf - it was over-the-top wonderful! Our server was attentive and friendly- and ,as usual, the manager Alfredo stopped by our table several times to make sure we were not in need of anything. A perfect dinner and Saturday night out!

    Love this place! Don't be fooled by the location or the initial look of the strip mall they're in. It is a hidden gem! We are always greeted very warmly, and the service is fantastic. Let them know if you prefer your pasta al dente or tender. Great food, great atmosphere! Wish they would play only Italian music, but, I guess you can't have your cannoli and eat it too! I recommend them highly.
