    Breakfast was fantastic. The restaurant was impeccably clean. The coffee, mimosa, and eggs Benedict may have been the best I’ve ever had!! Our server and all of the staff were extremely friendly and attentive. The view was amazing as well. Highly recommend!!

    I cannot count the number of visits we've had to The Girl and the Goat, but it continues to be a favorite for both personal and professional dining. I brought three colleagues, who have never been, to the restaurant for dinner. One diner is vegetarian, but there are menu offerings and options available to provide them with enough to eat. All three were quite impressed with the food. My only complaint would be our table was right next to the kitchen, which can be loud. However, we made due, and had an enjoyable meal. Service is always very good, and the cocktails are fun. If you're interested in dining, make sure you book way ahead, as there is almost no chance to get a table day of.
