I went to the Thirsty Goat on a Friday night with some friends. It was fairly busy, but we were seated right away which was nice. The service was not great. When deciding if we wanted to order food or drinks right away, our server just straight up left the table just as we were about to order. It was nice that the food came out fairly quickly, but overall, the food was not great. For $20 salmon, I expected it to be good, but it was dry and overcooked. Overall, just not a great experience. Also forgot to mention that it is extremely dark in the restaurant. I almost needed a flashlight to see the menu.

We were in town for WDE and stumbled upon this gem! Absolutely wonderful service from a friendly staff! The nachos were AMAZING! We visited twice during our trip! Both times the food was great, our drinks were top-notch and had the best service!

Quiet outdoor seating & a spacious bar inside. Usually fairly busy without being overwhelming, anywhere between 2 & 8 pm. Brisket tacos & all smokehouse options have great flavor. The hot, house made, wing sauce is amazing.
