    Pandan Flan
    Elaine Y.

    Came for my birthday dinner and loved it! If you know Stephanie's style, then you can see this whole menu has that Izard flair - there's a Latin or Asian flair to every dish because she loves that punch of flavor. And it works! I would have most of these again! We started with drinks of course. Her cocktails are expensive ($20-23 per) so we veered into wine which was a hair bit more palatable ($17-20). I had a Syrah and boyfriend had the Cab. It was cool to hear that Stephanie personally picks what is featured and we have to say, her picks were right up our alley. Disco fries - awesome. Fries topped with pork, cotija cheese, jalapeños, and pickled onions. Savory, spicy, with that pop of acid. What's missing? A sweet element you say? She got you covered with a drizzle of coconut that can't be seen but can be tasted. Goat Empanadas: the Izard namesake. Super flaky pastry and the goat was treated exceptionally well. If you didn't tell me it was goat, I would have just assumed pork. The hucatay sauce was herby and delicious. We also used it for the fries. Hamachi Crudo: really liked her play on textures and flavors here. The puffed rice and the hamachi were really nice foils, but the true star were those peels of kumquat which are totally in season now - bright, citrusy, tart. Salmon - this was a tad on the salt bomb side for me. The miso base was salty because duh, miso. But then then salmon was also aggressively seasoned before having a sichuan spice oil generously covering it. The salmon was cooked perfectly otherwise. Pandan flan: toasted rice, macerated strawberries, and creamy pandan flavor. No complaints lol. I would definitely welcome a repeat experience. We didn't try any of the big plates because we really wanted to variety.

    Great service at the bar. Delicious goat empanadas- how cool is that?! Loved the crispy quinoa tuna poke. Soooo delicious! Probably the best dish. Disco fries are share size for sure! Great amber lager as well. Cool decor, nice outdoor area and comfortable bar.

    This place has a seasonal menu and located inside an outdoor type of unit. So you can get a nice outdoor view while eating. I feel like this is a brunch spot as we ordered from the brunch menu. Potato Crepe (5/5): This is like the Vietnamese bánh xèo but with potato instead of the egg. It's really think so a good bang for your buck. I never had sauce with potato, so that was interesting. The outside is crunch but the inside is soft as it's balanced. The Vietnamese sausage tasted more like a regular sausage. Yolk onomokiyaki (3/5): I thought this was okay. It tasted like a fried with a bunch of random flavor. Goat empanadas (5/5): This seemed like a classic. The breading was perfectly fluffy and crusty. The meat was flavorful and comforting Overall I would like to try other things next time as everything was so unique. I'd love to see o their next menu.

    Finally had a chance to dine at Valley Goat and it did not disappoint! Our party of 5 was seated at one of their round tables and it's easy to be distracted by all the beautiful green decor and vinyls in the restaurant. Our server was exceptional from beginning to end and promptly took our order and water was constantly filled at the table. He was not kidding when he said the food would come out quickly, and because the table space is small, we had to keep divvying up the food and clearing out the large plates. We ordered the hamachi poke which was refreshing and loved the puffed rice. Goat empanadas were flaky and buttery, could have easily eaten a whole plate to myself. Disco fries were very tasty and loved by all. The green beans were a tad salty but really good as well. Chickpea fritters were also good, the goat yogurt was a nice touch. We ordered the grilled eggplant and sticky shank as our mains. The eggplant skin was too charred for our taste, but really liked the carrot tahini and the fresh baked pita was so good we ordered another. The shank was one of my favorites, so tender and flavorful. Loved wrapping it in the lettuce, though the pear kimchi could have had more flavor and spice. For dessert we had the mango sticky rice and the pandan flan. The pandan flan was easily my favorite! We also had cocktails and while the espresso martini was good, I didn't like the smoky flavor to it. We all really enjoyed the food but it is quite loud with the music that it's hard to hear one another talk.

    Girl and the goat is one of my favorite places to eat in Chicago. So I have been looking forward to trying this place sing it opened. Located by the treehouse hotel, plenty of parking but lot can get busy at times. When we made a reservation there was no specification of indoor or outdoor seating. Unfortunately we were seated outdoor and it was quite windy and chilly despite the heat lamps. We tried the goat empanadas which were good the spicy salmon dip which was delicious. The wood fired cauliflower was just ok. For the main we had the short rib which was pretty large and the pickled salad accompaniment was spot on. Price is a bid on moderate high, as the total for two of us was ~150 without drinks. Service was hit or miss, there were long gaps between dishes, so much so that we opted not to wait for dessert. Glad I tried it, but probably will not be a regular dinner spot for me

    Unfortunately, recent experience was not good. About a 1.5 star experience. Only saving a star/half star for the flavors of the food. Everything else huge downhill. Scheduled an 11AM reservation for my girlfriend's birthday. Front of house mentioned happy birthday. After that, no mention from waiter. Upon walking to our seats, the seats were absolutely stained. I looked at it for a few seconds, but just had girlfriend sit on a cleaner portion and I took the L. Completely acknowledge I could have spoken up here to ask for a different seat...but still shocked staff wanted to sit us there. Two of us ordered: -handroll dip $25 -temple fizz $16 -beef skewer $24 -pork belly $28 -avo dip $17 Portions are small here. Even for tapas. Waiter forgot our drink. It was sitting at the bar and only brought over once second dish came out and I asked where it was. Avo dip was also forgotten. After all the food came, I asked where it was and he went back and got it. Paying the bill and getting the card back also took forever. Not a good experience. Value is not there. Service is non existent. Food flavors are good, but with the cost and lack of attentiveness, I would look elsewhere.

    Pork Shanks
    Ben W.

    Un. frickin. Believable. Some of the most favorable food I've ever had in my life. Dinned at a Michelin star restaurant the night before, and honestly, preferred Valley Goat. We ordered essentially the entire menu for my gfs birthday w many friends and family. Service was fine, but could be improved. Can't stop thinking about the food though. Highlights: skirt steak, quinoa/poke salad, pork shank, asparagus, branzino.

    Beautiful farm to table restaurant in the treetop hotel. You're definitely paying for the beautiful leafy decor and Instagrammable photos. Both indoor seating and patio seating which is adjacent to the beer garden. Overall the menu is intriguing and unique, this would have been a five stars for us if the portions fit the bill, and the service was better. Bread just shouldn't be $22 , but the red pepper flavored bread was a good starter, I liked the goat cheese sprinkled in the bread along with the creamy dip. The Cauliflower sprouts was not what we expected, I guess I didn't know what a cauliflower sprout was!! It consists of more stems and leaves than a traditional cauliflower head. That being said we were pleasantly surprised, and this was a really flavorful and delicious dish. The chicken kebabs were super skimpy, but they were well seasoned with a spicy and tender and juicy. There are chicken kebabs on the kids menu too and I literally thought they made a mistake because the chicken kebabs just seem so small in size they just had to be for mini people . The roasted eggplant was a fantastic dish. It was the only dish that was a large and even if you're not a huge eggplant fan , the carrot hummus and tzatziki on the side were really addictive. Comes with pita that I personally thought was too doughy, but I was outvoted and the rest of my family liked it. As per the kids menu , my daughter enjoyed the cheesy pita, which is essentially a quesadilla. The sesame noodles are a hard pass- it's not that it was bad, it's just not a flavor that a child would like. My kids both thought it tasted "sour". My son is actually whispering "bad" as I'm dictating this review. I enjoyed my red wine , but it is definitely a light pour; probably 6 oz. My husband really didn't like his pale ale that was recommended which he felt tasted more like a hazy . Service was peculiar, maybe our server was having a bad day. He brought a steak when we didn't order steak, which is fine but his attitude about it was strange and made it feel like it was our fault. After that, he just seemed moody. My son mentioned that he really didn't like the noodles, and he literally didn't say anything and darted away. Anyway, it's too bad because there aren't enough chic restaurants in the area. we enjoyed the food, but the price tag wasn't worth the experience and we probably won't come back. Service should be phenomenal when the bill is nearly $200.

    Ok - the hardest part about going to Valley Goat for the first time is figuring out where the heck it is. Lol. The restaurant is located in the Treehouse hotel - which is a very cool modern hotel. Once there- the restaurant is beautifully decorated. Very cool vibe. We came for a birthday and were immediately welcomed. Great start Drinks are very good and come quickly. Everything is family style so we ordered a ton of dishes to share. Everything was delicious. We had a great experience start to finish. We will definitely be back

    spicy handroll dip and goat empanadas
    Caly T.

    Super cute farmhouse/ tropical rustic ambiance! Loved the colors and open airy interior. Overall food was good, but very small portions for the price - Potato crepe: very crispy, loved the fish sauce with this! Was great rolled with the lettuce, reminiscent of a bun xeo. Wished for more meat filling. - Goat empanada : nice flaky exterior, a little dry filling but the mint chutney saved it. Great flavor otherwise - Spicy handroll dip: standard spicy tuna filling, the chips were a good accompaniment - Pork belly and tomato: single strip of pork belly atop a bed of tomatoes. nice sauce!

    Food is super tasty here. The setting is pretty much a fancy upscale restaurant. But the bar tables with their pin wheel design is not conducive to cleaning in between diners as the food sort of falls in between the cracks. Most flavorful and unique dish for me was the Disco fries. Although the fries didn't come out piping hot, the awesome flavors of the meat and limey creamy sauce lent a solid punch and was a good start to the meal. Good size to share. The skirt steak was pretty solid. Flavors were good and the meat was tender. The dish came w some green onions. But needed something a little more to balance it out. And the branzino was decent sized, mostly deboned and came with an Asian/ Thai style of sweet and sour that wasn't over the top. Pretty nicely prepared. Cocktails on average are about $20. All in, a solid meal but a bit on the pricey side. Maybe now becoming the norm in the Bay Area. Or maybe due to being part of a fancy hotel complex next to a Google office. Not sure.

    One of the most delicious and unique meals I've had in YEARS! Valley goat did not disappoint. We loved the seasonings, spice and cook of everything we ordered. Great to share multiple plates. Wonderful service and beautiful California indoor/outdoor interior. We'll be back!

    hamachi poke
    Jacqueline Z.

    This place is a little bit hard to find, as it is tucked away, but once you find and enter the restaurant, you'll be greeted by a warming, aesthetic ambiance. I made a reservation for a party of 4 on a Monday evening at 7:45 pm, as that was the earliest option they had after 6 PM when I booked. The restaurant didn't look too busy but could also be due to the rainy weather that night. My party decided to order a cocktail each, which are about $20. The cocktails did sound unique but overall low alcohol content. It did take some time for our drinks to come out after ordering. This place is one where you share the dishes family style. We decided to get 2 appetizers, 1 plate, and 1 bigger plate to split amongst us 4: - Goat Empanadas (appetizer): For $20, you get 2 empanadas along with a green sauce to pair with it. We each had 0.5 empanadas along, which tasted good with the sauce. - Disco Fries (appetizer): For $24, you get a hefty bowl of loaded fries. These might've been my favorite to be honest. Since they are quite packed, you do find them to be quite filling compared to if you had just regular fries. - Hamachi Poke (small plate): $28. Kind of underwhelming to be honest. Did not really leave much of an impression. - Wood-Fired Mary's Chicken (bigger plate): $52 of chicken and some veggies. The chicken is quite tender. Didn't quite like that we had to do quite some work to cut the chicken off the bone but at least the meat came off quite easily and was not dry. The veggies were seasoned nicely with the tzatziki dip. Overall, I love the ambiance and vibes here but the food is quite expensive for small portions. While the food was good, I didn't find it particularly mind blowing, especially when I factor in the price point.

    Lots of unique touches in the decor

    Should we make a reservation?

    If you mean 'reservation', then yes.

    Hi Sue, we have an outside dessert fee of $5 per person. This includes all outside dessert that are enjoyed during your visit.

    Is there a kids menu?

    yes

    Is there a happy hour?

    They have a "Bar & Bites" daily from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. but not what I'd call a traditional Happy Hour with reduced alcohol and food prices.

    I tried calling to share feedback, but they did not answer which I feel is important to note…read more We don't mind paying for a quality experience--especially for special occasions--which is why we chose Broma to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Unfortunately, we left regretting that decision. From the start, the experience felt unwelcoming when we were seated with our 3-year-old daughter. There was no single overtly disrespectful moment, but the overall tone and repeated small interactions made us feel like we were being judged for having a child with us. At one point, when our daughter accidentally dropped her fork while playing, the reaction we received came across as frustration, which added to that feeling. We understand not every restaurant is designed for young children, but Broma presents itself as a place for friends and family. Instead, we felt like we had to constantly manage and overcorrect normal toddler behavior, which created stress and took away from what should have been a special occasion. Because of that, we didn't feel comfortable raising concerns during the meal when the server checked in--we were more focused on getting through the experience without drawing additional attention. We were also offered an off-menu item without any mention of price. The menu we were given did not list the smash burger, so when I ordered a double, I had no context for the cost. The final price was a surprise, and we would have made a different decision with that information upfront. The food itself did not match the price point. The "smash burger" was not prepared in the style typically expected, and overall the meal felt underwhelming for the cost. Lastly, the billing was confusing. The paper receipt listed "gratuity," while the digital receipt labeled the same charge as a "service charge," making it unclear whether an additional tip was expected. That lack of clarity does not align with the level of transparency expected at this price point. We don't mind paying for a great experience, especially for meaningful occasions, but this visit did not meet that standard and ultimately left us regretting our choice to celebrate here.

    I like the ambience here. They have a bar, live music, coffee cafe area, dinning area and an out…read moredoor dinning area. The servers were friendly. We ordered cocktails "Flying Ace" and "Cielo Rosa", Forager Flatbread, and Roasted Beet Salad, and cheese plate. The cocktails were fun and inventive, but maybe a bit too complex for us. The Flying Ace was a smoky old fashioned type drink with a charred cinnamon stick. Maybe the wrong choice for a sunny afternoon outdoor venue. The Cielo Rosa, with mezcal and jalapeño has a lot going on as well. The forager had great mushroom flavor and loved the roasted garlic. The first bites were great- wish they could have kept the crust crispier for later bites. (Heated plate works well) The beet salad was really good. The crushed pistachios really contrasted well with the beets.

It's inside The Ameswell Hotel, with a spacious layout, aviation-inspired design, and a relaxed indoor/outdoor feel that's rarely crowded during daytime hours. They serve coffee drinks and food. The vibe works well for getting work done between sips of coffee. 1-2 stars for the food: they really need to redesign the entire menu completely, in my opinion. The dishes I tried were just underwhelming and did not justify the price point, not even bakery. There is a strange mismatch between the location/ambiance and food. I mostly just stick to the coffee right now. Bonus point for getting to test robot delivery. :D
