The Goat's Beard, Philadelphia PA

I really enjoyed my meal! The cheesesteak eggroll are amazing, the grits with the meat were perfect!

Spontaneous dinner with the bestie at a place with a crazy/cool name turned out to be such a joyous occasion. The food was great! I had the steak mac & cheese. I like how the QR code leads to a menu that includes customer reviews! And to make the night even better I saw Carolers for the first time and it was lovely. Dinner and Christmas Carolers in Manayunk, still make me smile.

We went for dinner and tables were reservation only so we got spots at the bar. Immediately upon sitting, we were greeted courteously by the bartender and served ice waters. We ordered a cocktail each (and a different one each later) and a couple small plates - TGB nuggets, herb fries and butternut hummus. Everything came out super quick and was SO delicious! The speciality cocktails were somewhat complicated (one had lemon sorbet, another muddled cucumber etc) and were especially amazing! All 4 had great flavor and just the right amount of sweet and added bonus were served with a smile. We will definitely try to get back sooner than later!

Get. The. Pizza. You will thank me! Especially that Smoke Shop one. The TBG Nuggets are spectacular as are the cheesesteak egg rolls; they don't skimp on the meat!
Only thing that may catch some people off or be discouraging is the slant when you sit outside since you're on a side street. It didn't bother me obviously since I didn't deduct on atmosphere, but it could some people.

Went for brunch and the food is good and servers were very friendly.however if youre looking to get drunk, then i recommend going somewhere else where the bartender knows how to make a drink. Had 3 drinks and didnt feel anything which is not the case at all with other brunch places and their drinks in the area.

EDIT: I obviously understand not throwing a ton of alcohol into one drink. Other brunch/restaurants where I order from still have amazing tasting drinks while still having some alcohol in them. The fact that I didn't even feel tipsy in the slightest when ordering multiple drinks is ridiculous. Why list alcoholic drinks and charge that price if there isn't going to be any alcohol content at all in them? Lame excuse.

Food was delicious, drinks were awesome! The only thing that was frustrating was the unclear time they're open until. We were turned away a previous night because they said they were closing at 10 despite websites stating otherwise. The next night we came in only to be told kitchen closes at 9 30, but they were open past 10. Not sure if there were staffing issues or if various websites are not updated to reflect current times, but to avoid hassle, call ahead and reserve a seat or go much earlier in the day.

I went here Saturday night and it was a pretty decent dining experience. Initially they tried to sit us at these kind of isolated tables on the sidewalk in front of the restaurant, but were nice when we requested to move where the majority of people dining outside were. The service was great. We ordered the mussels, brussel sprouts, and pizza (“The Smoke Show”). The pizza was really, really good. FYI- there are two sizes for pizza. The larger sized pizza is very big, so it’s best for more than two people, unless you want lots of leftovers. My only complaint is some of the prices seemed randomly high. The pizza was well worth the money, but I’m unsure about the cost of the drinks and other food. I would definitely come back for the pizza. You will not regret trying it!

Tried Detroit style Pizza, there is no chicken pizza so substituted pork with Chicken. It's good, worth trying. 18% gratuity is included in the bill so no tip have to be added and they mention that.

A coworker told us about this place, we went a while ago and liked it. We returned the week of Halloween. What I love is the outdoor tables, with heat lamps, the atmosphere, and the fact that there are multiple meatless options. I will warn you, the cavatappi pesto is SUPER full of black pepper, my mouth was on fire, so I gave it to my sister. But the gnocchi mac n cheese is DIVINE. I had a pear sangria also and it was really tasty. We'll definitely come here again next time we're in the area.

I had come to love this place, but today as a take out patron - no, no!

I purchased the salmon entree, strawberry salad and smash burger. As I waited I saw dine in patrons portions. My food looked like meager scrappings.

I know that establishments have been skimming money off the top by sending smaller portions for take out orders, but this is ridiculous!

What is worse, I recommend a friend to get something and they were so disappointed that they will not go back.

Let's talk about the wait staff this evening. Every last one looked passed. The vibe was just wrong.

(For $27 dollars the piece of salmon should have been thicker than a breadstick from Olive Garden. The sides did not fill up half the take out container.)

. Did I mention no forks and knives provided.

I hope this is not the beginning of a great place going down.

The place is nice! Food is good! Service is neither! Probably never going back again because of terrible service!

The Detroit style pizza is the best pizza I’ve ever had. Blows Santuccis out of the water and they’re great. Great vibes, and live music. Downside is it’s overpriced.

The salad was exceptional. The pizza was good but I prefer thinner crust and pizza sauce without sugar. The hosts and wait staff were friendly and attentive.

Burger managed to be burnt, greasy AND flavorless: quite a feat. And the place SMELLS BAD
Don't eat a burger here, you'll regret it.

The server spilled muscles on my friend and they still added an 18% gratuity and did not comp any part of the meal until the manager was called. Additionally when the manager visited our table his 1st remarks were “I cannot take the gratuity off your meal, ” “no Hello or how are you. ” Customers should be greeted with respect even in the midst of a disagreement.

My girlfriends and I had a great time eating at The goats beard. The food was amazing and the customer service was even better. Will definitely be coming back <3

Tldr: 90 minutes for a cold pizza that we had to end up taking with us, poor service, and spent $90 on drinks and an app and left starving.

We live in the neighborhood and used to come here often, sometimes weekly, but it's just gotten so poor, and at the prices they charge it's not ok.

Had a reservation and the place was mostly empty. We were seated at the worst table, right by the side entrance, were my husband was run into the entire night. Why were we seated here when almost every other table was open?

Our server was very slow and spent a lot of time chit chatting at the bar. We finally each order a drink (10-15 bucks a pop) an app, and a pizza. App comes out, everything is cool.

We notice everyone around us getting their meals, but we know the pizza takes longer. Flag down the server, order another drink.

After 75 minutes we ask about the pizza. She says she will check, and instead chats with people at the bar and the hostess stand. Finally, a manager says it's coming right now and asks if we want it for here or to go (amazing that it was somehow ready after we asked and people who came in after us had pizzas). We say to go and are presented with an *ice cold* pizza and virtually no apology. When I say cold think congealed. It was that cold.

It's not the pizza that irritates us, they comped it, it's wasting our entire evening and the lack of caring. If you want to charge the highest prices on main street you have to have customer service. If they would have cared we would be back; it's the apathy that lost you long term customers that at one point easily dropped $200+ a month here.

Not sure when pizza was added to the menu but it's really really good. Definitely one of the top restaurants on main street if not the best.

Interesting ambiance very attentive staff and good quality food.
The prices are on a higher end but it was well worth paying for a good service and food.
Portions are huge! Keep that in mind when ordering.

I had one of the small pizzas and their seasoned fries. The food was good, but not what I was hoping for. The fries are fresh cut which makes them better then most right off the bat, but the majority of the seasoning was on the bottom layer of fries. The pizza was made well with quality ingredients and done well. If I go back I would try something different on the menu.
