"I truly thought this was going to be a 5 star experience, I’m almost wondering if we just came on an off night because I’ve heard such good things. The build out is stunning. I absolutely loved the vibe of this restaurant. It has so much charm. I came here for a girls dinner, and we had such a good time. Our service was perfect, and the music was at a great volume for all of us to talk. I got the morningside spritz and loved it! The food is what shocked me. I was surprised by the steaks. We were told Goodwin’s was known for their steaks, so I got the filet and my girlfriend got the strip. Both steaks were cooked to perfection, and looked beautiful but lacked seasoning. Both needed salt 😭 we were really surprised because they looked so good. We ordered the cheese beignets, mac and cheese, roasted mushrooms and cookie butter cheesecake. We liked the mushrooms and the cheese beignets. The mac and cheese was just okay. The cookie butter cheesecake was extremely rich, the cookie butter was overpowering. My girl ordered the pork chop, and that was everything! Get the pork chop! Again, maybe an off night. I may try going again!"

"I was anticipating a really good experience at Goodwins, but it came up a bit short. The atmosphere is wonderful. The colors, tones, artwork, and lighting all combine to give you a warm feeling. It creates the impression you are going to have an elevated and enjoyable experience. But there’s a but… We did enjoy ourselves, but the food was hit and miss. The chicken cutlets, although cooked well with a slight crunch from the breading, lacked flavor. The mac and cheese suffered from the same lack of flavor and was too dense. Two bites of it and you feel full. To remedy the situation, it took me several minutes to flag down our waiter to request some salt. It took several more minutes for him to return with the white crystal flavor enhancer. None of this was particularly egregious. But when you’re seated in such a well-appointed dining room, the disappointment you feel when the food and service aren’t on par gets magnified."

"Goodswings is an awesome spot overall. The service was excellent—everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The ambience was brilliant too, with a comfortable and welcoming vibe that made the whole experience enjoyable. The only reason I’m giving four stars instead of five is because my entrée wasn’t as good as I expected. Everything else, from the atmosphere to the staff, was spot on, so I’d definitely come back and try something different next time."

"Met here for cocktails at the bar. Loved the ambiance, service, and cleanliness of the establishment! I didn’t try food, this time, but the drinks were absolutely amazing! There was a lady next to me who raved about the Starcrunch Cake with ice cream, I didn’t get a bite, despite her offer, but I will try and come back to update the review. I can’t wait to return."

"Upon entering the ambient lighting and decor sets the tone for the dining experience. Dining rooms are split into a front and rear areas. Food and service were great. Recommend making a reservation for timely seating. Neighborhood street parking available near restaurant or you can valet at the front."
