" I went for an anniversary dinner; truly, it was a delightful evening. The setting and service were phenomenal. Each course was uniquely flavored and clearly prepared by a skilled chef. I particularly enjoyed the charm of the restaurant and the ambiance that was both sophisticated yet relaxed. The only downside was that the portions could have been more generous but, overall, it was certainly an evening to remember! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Tail Up Goat but ended up feeling a bit let down. The menu was quite limited and while the food looked great, the flavor didn’t quite match the beautifully plated dishes. I was also surprised at the small portions for the price. The atmosphere was cozy yet lively which I appreciated, and the service was excellent. If they focus on improving flavor balance, this could be a great spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a wonderful evening filled with delicious food! Our meal started off with some divine appetizers and ended with even more impressive desserts. Each course was wonderfully balanced with creativity, making this dining experience memorable. We were treated with professionalism by the staff who provided us with helpful insights into the menu before ordering. If you’re looking for a unique culinary experience, look no further. Just be aware that while tasty, the portion sizes are quite small, characteristic of fine dining. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to a Michelin star restaurant, and I had high hopes! Unfortunately, I left feeling a bit disappointed. The service was good, but the food didn't have the punch I expected. Some dishes were bland and didn't really come together as a whole. I appreciated the effort and creativity in the menu, but I think it needs to be dialed up a notch. The atmosphere was inviting, so that's a plus. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visit Tail Up Goat was an adventure into a dining experience unlike any other! Each dish they serve is a work of art both visually and taste-wise. My favorite was the seared scallops—they were perfectly cooked and paired fabulously with the accompanying sauce. The servers were very attentive and accommodating to dietary preferences, which made me appreciate the meal even more. However, I would recommend coming with an ample appetite because the portions, while artistic, leave something to be desired in size. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tail Up Goat provides truly unique dishes that reflect thoughtful culinary craftsmanship. Each appetizer and entrée was full of flavor and presented beautifully. I found the service exemplary; they were not only attentive but also provided insight into each dish when asked. The coziness of the restaurant made it a great date night spot. However, be prepared for slightly smaller portions on the tasting menu—it’s all about quality here! Loved it overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" An experience worth every penny! The dishes are beautifully presented, and the flavors are remarkable. I can say the service is among the best I've encountered; the staff is professional yet personable. Each dish had a story, which they shared with us as we enjoyed each course. However, I felt like a few portions could have been larger for the price. Still, I would recommend Tail Up Goat to anyone looking for a memorable meal! " (*Curated Review*)
