    Always good menu options and always very attentive wait staff. I live out of town and we always visit the Skunk and Goat when we are in the Area.

    Specials yesterday were a prime rib that my fiancé couldn’t stop raving about! Said it was amazing and melted in your mouth!!! We also had a drink special which was a blackberry one (can’t recall the name) but it was very tasty! I had the pineapple ginger salmon and it was delicious! I enjoyed it very much with the veggies that were perfectly cooked. The only negative thing was the jasmine rice was sticky and lacked flavor but the salmon made up for that 100 times more!! It’s a little costly but well worth the treat for the food for sure!!!!

    Maria, we're stoked you loved the prime rib, blackberry cocktail, and salmon! Your kind words mean the world to us. Looking forward to your next visit!

    This was our first time and we really enjoyed everything! Our food tasted wonderful! Service was terrific! Our waitress was kind and helpful. The restaurant was super cute and the noise level perfect, I could have a conversation and hear our friends. So many restaurants are loud and you can’t hear each other. We will definitely return😊
    The Skunk & Goat TavernResponded on June 17, 2025
    Wendy, thanks so much for the awesome feedback! We're super pumped you had such an amazing experience with the food, service, and awesome ambiance. Seriously makes our day to hear guests had a blast. Can't wait to have you back again soon!

    One of our favorites! We both enjoyed the special prime rib, and our friends had crab cakes and a shrimp dish. There’s a good choice of wines by the bottle or glass, plus specialty drinks, so something for everyone. It was a busy spot on Friday night, so reservations are a MUST!
    The Skunk & Goat TavernResponded on June 3, 2025
    Mark, nothing makes us happier than hearing guests like you had an awesome experience! Sounds like you made some delicious choices from our menu and enjoyed the ambiance. We strive to provide a fun night out for all. Hope to see you and your crew back again soon!
