    For us, this was a special occasion meal and the food and the service were top shelf. We were a little taken back by the sticker shock, but the drinks, steak, salad, lobster, and appetizers were so good, I can’t complain. However, we were very surprised by the dress of the clientele. People were wearing sweats and sneakers in what I consider to be a very expensive and high end restaurant. Our waiter Pierre was an absolute pro. This is not a place for me to frequent often but maybe once or twice a year for a special occasion.

    Dined here during Jersey Shore Restaurant Week. Out of all the participating restaurants, The GOAT offered the best selections. The food was outstanding and the service was very good. I always enjoy dining at a restaurant where my friends and I can talk and actually hear each other. We truly enjoyed our dining experience and will definitely return.
