    Celebrated a friends birthday at this restaurant to start the night. Food was delicious, definitely recommend City Dipper. EVERYONE finished their dishes. Prices were alright, expected in the city but made up for their taste. They brought out a sparkler/desert for my friend & was perfect!

    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.

    Great spot for an authentic Italian meal. Chicken Marsala is the best and Isaac makes some espresso martinis to die for.
