I definitely enjoyed my visit to Rodeo Goat in Denton a couple of weeks ago. My husband and I were greeted immediately by Delaney to take our drink order. She recommended the Sugar Burger which was exactly what I needed. It had peaches, although cut in triangles instead of sliced thin, it still made for an interestingly delicious burger. My husband enjoyed his burger too...whatever it was. We shared tater tots, which were crispy and seasoned perfectly. I wish they had Temptress on tap instead of just a can, but our server brought chilled glasses, which was a plus. I recommended Rodeo Goat for anyone who loves burgers. If you get stuck with Delaney, you will be happy!

Rodeo Goat? You're probably thinking the same thing.... Why? And what in the world does it specialize in? Well- much to my chagrin... I was completely wrong. Maybe a Mediterranean style cuisine with shaved goat drizzled in tzatziki sauce with a Texan flair. I was wrong... but try gourmet burgers on for size. Burgers! Might I add- juicy, freshly made patties, and mighty tasty burgers! Man o man I loved the ambiance in a Friday evening. Came here with my son, who lives just across the parking lot at some urban apartments, and he was giving me his resounding endorsement so off we went. So glad I did! We both ordered the Bodacious Burger, layered in American cheese, bacon, heaping mounds of crispy onion, some grilled jalapeños, pickles, but I chose no BBQ sauce. Damn these burgers are thick thick thick and you can taste the homemade freshness with every bite. No frozen patties premade here. We ordered a single of hand punched fries dusted in parsley, salt, and Pepper. But, our waitress said it was enough for two, and she was spot on! Golden crispy fries were delish! I ordered their Old Buffagoat made with Buffalo Trace while my boy had a Vanilla Porter. All in all, great location, extremely friendly and immediate service, and more importantly, and no kidding- goatalicious with every bite!! As always, enjoy and Happy Eating!!

Brad Sham burger, HAND PUNCHED FRIES, onion ring, Dallas Blond beer.

The atmosphere was fun, quiet with nice music coming from above. The service was great. The Brad Sham burger was amazing, the bread was to die for, the Dallas Blond beer was cold and refreshing. The onion ring was greasy, limp and not consumable, not for me anyway. The fries were not much better. The pickle slices were okay-ish.

You would think that all Rodeo Goat food would be consistent. However, it certainly is not! This spot in Denton is by far the worst of any Rodeo Goats I have visited. (Rodeo Goat in Plano and Frisco Texas are 5 star burger locations! Just saying.) Reasons: Ordered the queso and cheese dip. The chips unanimously were stale and old tasting. And to add insult to stale chips, the salsa has BEER added to it! OMG! Not sure how old this salsa was, but for food to bubble and sizzle on your tongue is an issue. That's fermentation! That's jacked up! Everyone had a different burger. All were different sizes. Another inconsistency. The patties were pretty small and were smaller than the bun. Not a big deal, but we all added additional items to our burgers. Jalapeños, pickles, and/or bacon. And of course every single burger was without what we requested. Burgers were still "just" ok even though we paid extra to customize each one. "Sigh". Attention to details can really make a difference. If you can't follow through with customizations, don't offer that as an option. This place is a fail. The only solid thing at this location is that the wait staff will take your initial drink order. After that, well you're on your own. You won't see them again till it's time to pay. I expected all RG's to be created equal and have the same standards. I was seriously disappointed. The hand punched fries are pretty good. Unfortunately, getting condiments such as something as simple as ketchup is pathetic. There is no teamwork here. Each server is on their own. Just an observation. Denton management is a huge fail at this location. Come-on. Y'all can do way, way, way, better. Especially, since there are additional burger joints in the area. Managers should be rounding tables. 2 stars for the fries and water with seating. Otherwise, this location is an overpriced McDonalds. Blah! July 2025

Wednesday special is half off cheese fries! Both surprise (chili) and no surprise. It's a huge portion with bacon and cheese and jalapeños and it comes with a side of ketchup and 2 of ranch! They aren't cheap with ranch! Hubby ordered the chaca Oaxaca burger and gave it a solid 4/5 it had cheese, pico, an egg, everything yummy jammed into every bite! It was super affordable and we will probably be back!

Nanny goat burger and Rattlesnake Margarita and HAND PUNCHED FRIES

The restaurant was very cute inside. The rattlesnake margarita was delicious and strong! My nanny goat burger was delicious. It was very rich with the goat cheese and garlic mayo, but I enjoyed it! Server was friendly and helpful.

Interesting burger selections, the choices do not fail your taste buds. All sides are ala carte so bill adds up quickly. Good cold drinks and luckily learned about MOONTANG. Finish off the meal with Goat Balls, enough to share while dipping in the magical berry jam. Good place, fun decor.

STEAMING PILE

We had a party of 10 and we were able to find two tables back to back. Our server was very friendly.The Ozmosis burger was phenomenal. I was a bit unsure of the steaming pile but it was very good, messy but good. My husband's go to order is the avocado salad.

You may see a name such as Rodeo Goat on your apple maps and be a little confused. What you don't realize is that you are entering a sacred space of burger. Chloe gave us a magnificent solo rendition on the harmonica of a piece known as "Happy Birthday". You may have heard of it. My friend and I split the two competing burgers this month, "The Big Tex" and "The Sundance Kid" and enjoyed them immensely. The burgers are super unique and I guarantee there is something you haven't tried. The atmosphere is very GOAT-y and cozy. The whole restaurant feels like a family and we all love goats. The beauty of the rodeo goat is not in the goat itself. It's found in the memories, conversations, tastes, and friends you make along the way. The Goat, is simply the guide, and he is the GOAT.

A last minute date at Rodeo Goat with my wife made for a pleasant surprise, albeit quite messy dinner. It's been open almost a year now in the old location where a Cajun place was, next to BJ's and across the street from Chuy's. The complex list of burgers can be a little overwhelming, but my wife felt like the closest thing to a normal cheeseburger with mustard on it was the DCC, which we found out stands for Denton Country Club. Thick tomato cuts, pickles and mustard highlight this gem. Very great flavors but, fair warning, if you try to cut it in half it could just become a mess. I ordered the Chaka Oaxaca burger which features a chorizo mixed burger with a fried egg on it. Concept is fantastic because egg on a burger is one of my favorites and it comes with chipotle mayonnaise on it as I prefer mayo over mustard. Was a fantastic burger with a couple of downsides though. The egg was busted prior to arriving to me so the yolk had dripped down the bread to the bottom, which then made it the bun sticky and actually peel off on my fingers (eeeewww). Again makes for a mess man those thick chunks of avocado pair so well with the chorizo burger....but as advertised it's definitely a fiesta in your mouth. Those two burgers with a side of fries came to about $31 and my they check out on a hand held device so my wife said she left 20% to the very friendly and helpful waitress. No matter what people say, it always helps if the staff are smiling and appearing as if they are happy to have you dined with them. Never gets old. While not a fan of messy burgers that can fall apart, the flavor and service is well worth it...

How are the hamburgers?

The burgers are gourmet and may not always appeal to some people with a basic burger desire. It is not your typical burger joint. The burgers are definitely not the same old style burgers. The burger meat is good but it is the toppings that make… 

Are they pet friendly?

Rodeo Goat allows pets on the patio outside, but they must be leashed. Service dogs are welcome anywhere.

Do they have TVs to watch games?

YES!

Looking for something nearby with a varied menu & beverage options - Greenhouse did not disappoint…read more Stopped by during the week and were promptly seated on the lounge side - which was perfect. Lots of TVs, yet not distracting. Started with Revolver North Texas Blonde, and Spinach & Artichoke Dip, loved the garlic toasts. For our entrees we enjoyed the Southwest Grilled Chicken, and Quinoa crusted Shrimp which was delish! For me, the star was the Jalapeno Slaw - just outstanding! We wrapped up our evening with Tiramisu, The Gray & Mystic Paloma. Fantastic food, value and service - we will def return!

I have a group of friends and we go here once a month prior to a meeting close by. I have to say…read morethat I am underwhelmed by this restaurant. Nothing is horrible or tastes bad but nothing is exceptional either. My first time there, I ordered The Big Salad, the name is quite misleading it was anything but big. There was surprisingly few of the ingredients that were supposed to be in the salad. It was supposed to have mushrooms, avocados, sunflower seeds, tomato, carrots, , diced beets and red onions with chicken. There were exactly three small strips of chicken that were unremarkable and certainly not a full portion of chicken. I certainly expected to get a serving of chicken for the cost of the salad. I got exactly two mushroom slices and the same minimal amount of each ingredient. I expected a bountiful salad, but got nothing more than a disappointing salad with a lack of the promised vegetables. Vegetables are inexpensive so I can't imagine why this restaurant is so parsimonious in putting some on their big salad. They do have an excellent happy hour with drinks really inexpensive. Also, they have a deal on appetizers during happy hour with those at $5.00. If you want to save some money, have an appetizer as your entree. One of the ladies in our group got the spinach dip with tortilla chips and bread. It looked yummy and she had some leftover to take home. We had a big group the first time I went. We were seated near a door that went to the patio. Every time someone went in and out a huge gust of air came in. They set up our table in the wrong place. Before we were done with dinner my hair looked like I had been in a hurricane. The wait staff is competent and gets our drinks and food out quickly. That is a plus in my book. So ho-hum bland food with good service. Sometimes you don't get everything you want. I will continue going with my friends and drinking a double gin and tonic to make my meals more enjoyable.

My husband said the cuban sandwich literally redeemed cuban sandwiches in general because he usually doesn't enjoy them but thought this one was very good.

The cashier offered us a nut sample and our 3 year old enjoyed those. then the other employee gave our 3 year old some fresh fruit for free as we waited for our to go food. It was so thoughtful! The sandwiches come with the freshly seasoned chips. The inside is clean and set up well. Highly recommend this place!

The service was great, server and hostess were really warm and friendly without being over the top…read more Ambiance was cozy with pretty decor on the walls. I like the dessert display very quintessential. The hash-browns were well cooked and tasty. My favorite part of the meal. Unfortunately I found the eggs benedict to be flavorless, bland and unsalted/unseasoned. Even after adding salt about 4 times, I still could not taste anything. 0: I dont think the muffin was toasted before assembly as it was soggy. The hollandaise lacked any flavor at all, but the texture was fine and the color was spot on. The eggs were cooked well and I have no complaints in that regard, the yolk broke beautifully and oozed out satisfyingly. The ham tasted... hammy? Lol? Did not enjoy that - but I will give them props that they layered the ham on and didn't skimp! My server offered me a drink to go as well which I appreciated. I had asked for my food to go, I noticed it was packed with care with a layer of tin foil under the food between the box so that was a nice touch, very professional and considerate. The staff seemed relaxed and content which made for a pleasant experience. The rest of the customers seemed happy and focused on their company, which is a good sign. The place was clean and the staff was quick to bus tables. Overall a lovely spot, if I were to go back I'd just order something else.
