I love The Goldfinch! Appetizers are delicious- my favorite is the roasted bone marrow. Cocktails are delicious. Ambiance is nice bc after hours is mellow and you can easily get a seat at the bar. Bar is very friendly. Only downfall is paying for parking. Even with a validation we were charged for 3 hours.

Amazing brunch spot! The lobster enchiladas and the vanilla bean french toast were phenomenal. Our brunch group rarely visits the same place twice but The Goldfinch will definitely be seeing more of us. Beautiful restaurant, easy parking and outstanding service!!

The only thing we didn't enjoy was the intensity of the fire pit. Our table backed into it and if it were cool/cold it would've been nice but it was sweltering hot so we were on fire. Other than that l, it was a lovely spot and the food was delicious.
