The Spot
Girl & The Goat sits in Chicago's Fulton Market District, run by chef Stephanie Izard as part of Boka Restaurant Group. The menu is built for sharing across the table, mixing snacky vegetable dishes with heavier meat courses in the same meal.

Dishes that keep coming up include the goat itself, pig face, chickpea fritters, pork shank, shishito peppers, hamachi crudo, and halibut, alongside bread and a well-known mousse. Short ribs, salad, and ice cream round things out for those wanting lighter or sweeter options.

Izard won the James Beard Foundation's Best Chef award in 2013, following a finalist nod in 2012, and the restaurant was a finalist for Best New Restaurant in 2011. Girl & The Goat has held a Michelin Bib Gourmand every year from 2019 through 2025.
