I loved my Harvest Bowl salad. It was delicious. It was presented differently than when I was there 4 months ago. They had a new menu this visit. Mallory was attentive to all of our needs. The TV was a little loud but we were able to talk just fine. My husband enjoyed his Buffalo Chicken wrap. We will be back. read more

My husband and I ate here for Restaurant Week. Everything we ate was so delicious. He got the pizza roll, hamburger with fries, and lava cake with vanilla ice cream. I got the Buffalo cauliflower (cauliflower with panko bread crumbs served with a mild Buffalo sauce and housemade ranch), chicken wrap (double wrapped to make sure everything stayed together), and apple crisp with vanilla ice cream. The serving was plentiful and I took half of my meal home for leftovers! Our server, Blade, greeted us at the door and said we could sit wherever we would like. There was bar seating, high and low seating tables. He was great, he checked on us and kept us updated on our orders, and kept our drinks topped off. The atmosphere and decor were modern with exposed brick surrounding the pillars. The bathroom was clean and warm (you know how most bathrooms are freezing cold). We look forward to returning to try out their regular menu (I want to try their shrimp taco's!). read more

Went there tonight for a sponsored social event. Outside temp is 92, with a posted heat index of 102. The air conditioning seemed to be not working. When asked about it we were told that management would not adjust it to cool. One employee opened some windows and doors for a cross breeze. This made it slightly bearable. Looking at the thermostat when leaving it was set for 87. I was told that the GM was yelling at the employee who opened the doors and windows. read more

My husband and I met my best friend and her kids here for dinner before heading over to the zoo for the lantern festival. We were not on a time crunch, but couldn't afford to be there for hours and hours. We ordered a burger, the kids, chicken tenders, the hot chicken dip, and the kids mac & cheese. Our server was extremely nice and attentive. The patio is nice and the restaurant itself is spacious with high ceilings. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his burger. My best friend and I thought the flatbread was pretty good. The kids enjoyed the chicken tenders. The kids mac & cheese was made with pepper jack cheese... while it probably tasted great, considering mac & cheese is often on kids menus so parents have a safe and reliable option, my best friend was disappointed when the mac & cheese arrived and her son took one look at it and wouldn't eat it. A lot of kids also don't enjoy spicy things. Would be good if this was at least written on the menu in the description. Our hot chicken dip was OK, but I would never order it again. It was mostly just cream cheese with some hot chicken seasoning on top. They forgot the chicken in ours.... The final disappointment was that the server came back after we ordered and he let us know that our food was going to take close to an hour because the kitchen was behind. While I know this is no one's fault, it caused us to get to the zoo rather late and we had three kids to entertain for an hour with no food. The food ended up coming around 50 minutes. read more

The Goat Hilliard - Bars Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

Service!!! Took 10 minutes to get seated and there was hardly anyone there. Then sat and sat while they tried to figure out who was going to take care of us. Again - there was hardly anyone there. Just the staff walking around scratching their heads. It's too bad cuz it's a cool place with decent food. read more

We had our Galentine's celebration here. We made a reservation for our party of 15 and they had the table ready well before our reservation time. Our tables were in a little sectioned off portion of the dining room, which made it feel more intimate. We really liked the placement of our party. Our server was sweet-she shared with us that it was her second week on the job. With that in mind, she did a great job. The timing of the food was rough with main courses coming out before the apps, some people's food coming out well after others had finished, etc. (kitchen problem, not a server issue) but the food was all tasty. There weren't very many chips with the chips and queso. We asked for more chips and they came out about 30 minutes later after the cheese had congealed so more timing issues. There were also lots of issues with the bills-the wrong meal being on the wrong bill (again, the server was new)-so the manager had to get involved to correct them. He was not friendly, nor was he apologetic. I thought he should have been more supportive of his brand new server and more involved with the party (the restaurant had less than 10 other tables filled, so he could have helped for sure). We will likely return and give it another shot. read more

I was in Columbus for a couple of days and met my niece here for dinner. I had never heard of The Goat. It's a very casual and relaxed atmosphere when you walk in. We were meeting earlier in the evening for dinner. Their Happy Hour runs from 3-7 during the week. Each day has its own special. We were there on a Monday so I got their boneless wings and fries happy hour special for $10. It comes with 10 boneless wings. I was curious about their MoonShine wing sauce and was told it's similar to Chick-Fil-A sauce. I did 5 wings in BBQ and 5 wings in the MoonShine sauce. Honestly, I wish I had done all MoonShine sauce! It was SOOOOO good! It is similar to CFA sauce, but still very different. The MoonShine sauce seemed to have a more honey mustard base - at least that's what I tasted more of. The fries were also really good! Our server was excellent and helpful. He (and the other staff) made sure to keep our drinks filled and ask if we needed anything (but not annoyingly often - it was just right). I'd recommend this place to anyone visiting Columbus! read more

This place does not open until 11:30am. FYI!! If you're looking for a nearby lunch spot.

Our bartender, Unique, was amazing! She was juggling about 20 things at once and managed to get it all done while being pleasant and kind. She's where the positive stops though. A male manager was sitting at the bar talking loudly and angrily on the phone and then slammed it down on the counter. We were just trying to have a nice Sunday morning brunch. If a manager is going to have a tantrum, please build him an office in which to do it instead of bothering the customers. Lots of other employees just standing around and our food came out cold and not together. We rarely come here and this experience reaffirmed why. read more

My partner and I decided to check this place out for restaurant week and found a few aspects underwhelming. Our server seemed new so we tried giving him grace but he very rarely came over to our table, but seemed attentive to tables nearby. We decided to put in our apps, entrees, and dessert all at once because our server said it was easiest for him to do it that way, no problem there! Our apps arrived quickly-- the drunken shrimp was the best thing we ate while there. Our entrees arrived shortly after our apps. 5 minutes in our entrees our "molten" lava cake arrived. Our server dropped it off and left the table before we could say anything about the very early arrival of dessert. We had zero refills while there. Our lava cake was still cold in the middle. Poor timing and service on our server's end otherwise it would had been just a little bit better! read more

This spot looks for trendy and cool inside. It was empty when I was picking up lunch for an office, but I could imagine it being a fun spot for drinks and a bite to eat. I was picking up lunch for an office, so I can't speak to how their food was, but for me, the Bacon Blue Cheese Burger I had was ok. Nothing exceptional about it. My overall impression is this spot would be a better experience for dining in rather than takeout. read more

Great food and great service! Pickles were outstanding and shrimp wrap was great too!

Mario and Kara were amazing last night!!! Top tier customer service they provided. Drinks were great! Ambiance was great

So sad to be writing this because my boyfriend and I were so excited to try this place and really wanted to like it but oh yikes. Let me start by saying the hostesses and server were great! No issues there at all! But wow everything else was so disappointing. This dish is supposed to be a roasted curry cauliflower and it was almost inedible. No flavor or seasoning, not roasted (soggy and mushy with water sitting in the bottom of the plate), the "candied jalapeños" were just plain jalapeños, and the "hot honey" was almost certainly just simple syrup with some hot sauce in it. I also got a "Greek Bowl" which was supposed to come with Naan and quinoa and it had maybe a ~sprinkle~ of quinoa and the Naan never came even though I reminded the food runner I was supposed to get some. Boyfriend's "Nashvegas" was supposed to have pimento cheese and it looked more like veggie cream cheese. Look I am not a person who is ever harsh to customer service workers or restaurants in general, but guys please fix this. Like people in here are so cool and nice and they're serving dishes for $15 that should've cost $2 from a frozen bag. I say this with peace and love, I'm just so disappointed and hoping this changes something! read more

They need to fire their chef. The food is so bad at both locations. Unseasoned, overcook, broken sauce, and sloppy presentation. You'll get a better meal at sheetz. The goat could be the goat if they fix their food. read more

I'd like to add to my previous review because I feel some recent changes they have made are not for the betterment. Apparently since my last review, some significant changes have been made to the previous menu selections. It seems they have slimmed down their overall offerings for whatever reason. Sad. On our last visit just this evening, I was a bit disappointed with the selection. We arrived around 4:30 pm for an early dinner and we're the only ones in the entire place for a while. We ordered the hot chicken dip appetizer. Turns out it was the highlight of the evening as things went South from there. This is the second time I've tried to order a draft beer from the menu only to be told they don't have it after checking. We all ordered the Garden Smash Burgers and fries. They arrived about 20 minutes later (only 2 other occupied tables at the time). The food was tepid, at best, and all our fries were borderline mushy and just slightly warm. We were starving so we just made due with the situation. Only 1 server was on duty and only checked in with us once from the time we got our food to the time we asked for the check. I say this to management, improvement isn't necessarily an improvement and you're going to have to figure some things out before I will be back. You need to expand your offerings and improve your kitchen efficiency to get back where things once we're. Your decisions have not had the intended impact. Don't fix what isn't broken. We'll give it one more try in a while to see if you have really listened to the honest evaluation from a once impressed patron? read more

Came in early after--maybe 2:00, it was not busy at all. Waited almost 25 minutes for someone to take my order. It was disappointing. Ordered chicken gyro--flavorless. The sweet potato fries were extremely salty, so I asked for another condiment to try to balance it out. Never got it. Had to stop the waiter and ask for a drink refill and my check. Almost an hour for mediocre food, when the place was mostly empty? Nope, won't be back. Too bad, I was excited to try it out. read more

I've been to the goat many of times and food is always good here. It's was very empty on a Monday night but we were able to seat ourselves. Service was good and quick, we got our food in like 10-15 minutes. Many TVs were on so we were able to watch some basketball games. Our serve was very nice and checkin in ok us multiple times. read more

Went for dinner during happy hour on a Friday night. We were able to be seated quickly and got a table outside. There is a pool and sand volleyball courts in the area. Music was great and we enjoyed the ambiance! We ordered a couple of cocktails on happy hour which were decent. We ordered the nachos for an appetizer on happy hour which were fine at best. They came out fairly cold and the flavors seemed to clash for my taste. My husband and I both ordered burgers and fries which were pretty decent however once again seemed a little cold by the time we got them. Would consider going back mostly for the outside seating area and vibe. read more

We had reservations for 4 which grew to 12 in a short time and we were seated at a very tall long table as everyone arrived. They had no issue with the change of reservation numbers. We had the perfect server, Blade, as he was extremely pleasant and accommodating throughout the evening. The orders came out perfectly to each seated customer and many raved about the food and of course the drinks! Of course the Black Walnut Old Fashioned is always a hit! With the table coming from the state of Washington, California, and Nebraska, the conversation was light and lively, the Queens Table was the perfect location for us to converse with each other and have an outstanding evening with the perfect server, Blade and the outstanding food! read more

Came here for happy hour on a Friday - it goes until 7pm which is great! We sat outside near the pool which was lovely for a summer day. The drinks and food were all really good. The hot chicken dip for an app was dealt flavorful and not too spicy at all. I got the so cal chicken sandwich and it came with lots of bacon and avocado. It was yummy the fries were seasoned so good too! Definitely coming back for more good eats & good vibes read more

They have daily specials throughout the weekdays and happy hour specials. I would highly recommend. The spicy garlic sauce for the chicken was great. The BBQ sauce was good but the spicy garlic was more flavorful. I would definitely come back and try the wings again but getting a lot more. The Buffalo chicken flatbread was great. The Buffalo sauce paired with ranch and the blue cheese, and the chicken created something that came together nicely. It was also only $5 and filled me up. The pepperoni pizza was also good. It was loaded with pepperonis, which is my personal preference. Last but not least are the Italian rolls. The bread was great. It was easy to bite into but maintained it's crispiness. It was like honey baked. The marinara sauce was a great compliment. The pepperoni to cheese ratio inside was perfect and I will be back to try the Italian rolls again. I took some to go and they were the highlight of everything I tried. read more

Got loaded tots, had to send them back twice, first time they were still frozen, second time they were cold and mush.. I get it's a bar, but the one in dublin is close enough and better. Staff however were very nice in Hilliard, it's bigger, and has way more parking. So, if you just want a beer, Hilliard might be a better spot. read more

Love this place! We've been for lunch and happy hour but never brunch. Fixed that today. I had the huevos rancheros and they were very good. Husband had a buffalo chicken wrap, came with fries, all good. He loved his Bloody Mary, they do a Nashville hot chicken one that comes with a chicken wing, biscuit and big dill pickle. He ordered two they were so good! And I do recommend their happy hour, every day is a different special. Wednesday's are flatbread pizzas, and they have $4 house wines. read more

Wonderful waiters, tasty small plates, pleasant outdoor atmosphere. Drinks were amazing too.

Very fun environment inside and has a volleyball court outside, perfect location for summer! Service was speedy and friendly. Prices were reasonably and portions were perfect. Enjoyed the farmhouse tots which were amazing, the spicy chicken dip which I will definitely be returning to try again, the boneless Cajun wings that were a bit dry and could have used more seasoning, and the devil on goatback pizza which was a super fun combination of ingredients but also a little dry. Everything on the menu looked delicious and I can't wait to try more! A small complaint is that the bathroom was out of soap which was a bit inconvenient especially during a pandemic. read more

Attempted to eat at The Goat for lunch. Took longer than expected to get a server so we ordered right away and 45 minutes later we ended up leaving without food. The server never came back to refill drinks or check on us. We had to go to the bar to make get drinks and check on the food status. I keep trying to give them another chance and it always bites me. I will not be giving them more chances. So many better options in Hilliard. read more

The Goat is an upscale chain of Columbus bars and restaurants and I've been to the downtown location and was excited to try their Hilliard joint. The restaurant is elegant and modern, with tons of comfortable seating and a bar featuring a large selection of beers and cocktails. We went for happy hour and chose a $5 flatbread and some canned beers - unfortunately the happy hour discounts were relatively limited: they offer a discount on only one rotating appetizer per day and a dollar off local canned beers. The flatbread was low on flavor and unremarkable. We also went for the cauliflower buffalo wings, carnitas tacos, loaded tater tots, and boneless wings. The buffalo cauliflower and wings were both excellent, really unique and fresh, and the buttermilk ranch and blue cheese were both top notch. The tater tots were also delicious, and the best part was the tacos: the pork tasted like it had just come out of a smoker. Overall, I was impressed with the quality of the food: everything tasted homemade and it was a step up from the usual bar food. The service was friendly, but a little bit slow; it took a while to place our order and get food cleared. Still, the Goat is an excellent choice for casual fare in and around Columbus. read more

It was a really industrial nice looking place. However the service and food were not the GOAT! They were not busy for brunch at 11am Sunday, ordered the Bloody Mary and the condiment weren't even on it I had to ask for them she said they were cooking them. The mimosas came, then the partial accoutrements for the bloody but not anything like what the menu said. Food took forever and was not very good. Bacon was deep fried and just crumbled pieces not strips, brioche French toast was over cooked and made with all the heels of the bread. Brioche toast wasn't even buttered. Was very dissatisfied had to go get our own napkins at wait station, had to wait for her to clear plates. Bring check etc. hash browns were awful. read more

We met some friends here on a Saturday afternoon (~2pm) and we had good experience. We had the tots as an appetizer which were very good.

Service was fast and was a really nice atmosphere. read more
