About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for outdoor dining
The Lazy Goat is a Mediterranean-themed restaurant with a menu featuring global influences from Spain, Morocco, Italy, France, Greece, Africa and the Middle East in a relaxed atmosphere where taking the time to "linger and share" is encouraged.

The diverse menu was created to accommodate a variety of diner preferences with meat & cheese plates, small plates to “graze and nibble,” and main dishes.

Guests are invited to take their time while "trying a little bit of this and a little bit of that" or a "whole lot of whatever they like."

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Lazy Goat dazzles with its "great food, awesome service, unique options." Guests rave about its "fantastic atmosphere and amazing food," with standout dishes like the "half roast chicken" and "halibut paired well with harissa." The "fried goat cheese is insanely good," and the service, highlighted by servers like Geronimo and Henry, is "exceptional." While it can get noisy, the "outdoor patio" offers a quieter dining experience with "beautiful views of the river." Highly recommended for its "cozy and romantic" ambiance, perfect for a memorable date night or a special occasion.

    Server was great and helped answer our questions and gave great recommendations. The pomegranate margarita was delicious. The fried goat cheese and whipped feta appetizers are top tier. I really enjoyed the margherita flatbread. We loved our visit. The noise level gets really high, just fyi if you’re looking for a quiet dinner you may opt to sit outside on patio.

    We had a wonderfully, delightful dinner at the Lost Goat. We ordered the fried goat cheese with a taste of vanilla honey and pistachios. Then we had the Zaatar Ahi tuna with red lentil tabbouleh and cauliflower hummus. The garlic flavor was to die for! Then we ended our meal with the apple fennel salad. The server, Geronimo gave us great details on all the menu items and his service was impeccable. Would gladly return there for the food and ambiance!!!

    Cozy and intimate little restaurant, however, it was sweaty warm inside. Service was good and food was good, but nothing I feel I need to rush back for. May have been a better choice on a cold evening.

    The Lazy Goat is one of our favorites. Best old fashioned in town! We enjoyed lunch outdoors with our pup. Service was excellent. Only downside was the amount of garlic in the Brussels sprouts.
