Best Family Style Restaurants in Oak Park

Our meal at Girl & the Goat was wonderful! The service was friendly and helpful. He knew the menu and ensured our experience delicious. We began our dinner with the naan. The dips served alongside were excellent. Next we enjoyed the chickpea fritters that we crisp with creamy inside, accented by pomegranate. We definitely wanted to try the goat empanadas, and were glad that we did. Our next course that we enjoyed were the wood-fired mussels. The broth was delicious. We ended with the roasted pig face. Our server enticed us with dessert. We finished our meal with the apple hand pie. Overall, we loved this place.

It was me and girlfriends first time going here and it was amazing ! 10/10 food and experience. We live near the city but this place is definitely worth the drive to come and eat. Will be returning again !

The short rib hummus and the truffled salmon were unreal. Harissa Bloody Mary was very good. The Brussels sprouts and the steak and eggs were tasty but nothing extraordinary. The restaurant is so beautiful which really add to the experience. The patio being open in the winter is great, but it could’ve used an extra heater or two in the corners. Overall I am excited to go back and try more things.

The dry aged steak selection was outstanding! I went with the cowgirl ribeye, while my wife had the prime rib special and let me tell you… don’t let the name fool you, the cowgirl is enough for any hungry cowboy! And our waiter, Joshua, was an absolute delight! This will be on my list for a nice dinner anytime we’re in Chicago!

We like to sit at the bar. Service is really fast and we enjoy splitting a salad and pasta dish. The wines (reds) and cocktails (old fashioneds) are particularly good.
