Reviews
We are vegetarian and were looking for something healthy to eat in the neighbourhood. The Roaming Goat had some great options. We especially loved the dates stuffed with cheese, the dips and the halloumi. We sat on the patio which was nice and quaint. The falafels could be improved, they tasted raw on the inside. Otherwise it’s definitely a place I’d come back to. 👍🏽
Great happy hour! The mezze platter and the wine collection from Middle East is soo good (esp the red from beqaa valley ) Worth the visit!
Loved this place. Bar is cozy and has a great selection of wines, many of which are reasonably priced. Cool to see wines from the Caucasus since they pair so well with the food. We sat outside and loved the grilled beef and chicken, amazing basturma cured meat with a side dish of delicious halloumi cheese. We will be back.
Great wine collection to choose from. Love late night happy hour 10-11pm. Food is delicious, and staff are friendly and professional.
