"Since winning season four of Top Chef in 2008, Stephanie Izard (Stephanie Izard, Best Chef: Great Lakes, 2013) has been one of the city’s most popular chefs. It’s still tough to get reservations at her original restaurant, Girl & the Goat where fans continue to flock in to try bold, signature dishes like oven-roasted pig face and goat empanadas. Izard capped off her quick rise to fame with a Best Chef: Great Lakes award in 2013. She’s since expanded her footprint with acclaimed restaurants Duck Duck Goat, Little Goat Diner, and Cabra, plus an LA location of Girl & the Goat and a line of condiments sold in grocery stores." - Naomi Waxman

"The Chicago location is hosting a fundraiser brunch titled Chefs in Action, LA Fire Relief Brunch at 11 a.m. on Sunday, January 19; tickets are $150 and available via OpenTable. The team will serve brunch from an all-star lineup including Chicago chefs Jason Vincent of Giant and Jonathon Sawyer of Kindling. Maueet Chaunan, Joe Sasto, and Boston chef Karen Akunowicz will also contribute, with proceeds benefitting the California Wildfire Disaster & Relief Fund. Izard posted about her home near Altadena and Pasadena: “Beyond sad and scary, and far from over. Sending love and strength to all of those nearby the many fires continuing to break out around LA.” A rep says Izard, her family, and her home are safe, and the fire hasn’t damaged her restaurants, though many restaurant owners haven’t been so lucky as areas like Malibu and Altadena have been hit hard. Tickets are available via OpenTable." - Ashok Selvam
"Stephanie Izard’s Randolph Row mainstay not only remains one of Chicago’s hottest reservations, but it also serves outstanding food, as the Michelin guide attests. It’s one of two Izard restaurants on the list." - Eater Staff
