    3rd time coming. Always a great experience. My girlfriend loves the Rigatoni Vodka. The prosciutto appetizer is amazing. Decided to try the spagetti limone and it was a bit underwhelming, wouldn’t get again. We didn’t get it this time but the honey pepperoni pizza is amazing as well. Always a great ambiance and service is great. If you can get a reservation I would definitely recommend and we will be back. Thanks

    I really enjoyed dining at girl & the goat. Their menu selections were spectacular, and they were able to accommodate those with dairy intolerance (which most restaurants are unable to do). Their food selections were great and flavorful, and their staff was friendly. I would definitely recommend the chicken or steak dishes.

    First time trying the Aba Happy hour food! The spreads sampler gave us a chance to try them all and the Crispy chicken had the perfect crispy skin and heat from the different peppers! Falafels and shrimp were really good. Carrot cake was overly spiced and a bit dry so going to skip that next time!

    I recently dined at the Ralph Lauren Restaurant in Chicago and had an exceptional experience. Our server, John, was truly spectacular—attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. He made sure our dining experience was perfect from start to finish. We were lucky to have a beautiful window view, which added to the overall ambiance and made our meal even more enjoyable. The food was exquisite, and the elegant setting made for a memorable evening. I highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion or a lovely night out in the city!
