50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Wilmette

“We got our food ‘to go’ so I think that rating “Atmosphere” wouldn’t help the credibility of this review.I got 20 hot wings, hoping to save half for tomorrow… well, there’s 4 left. The other guest said their chicken/cheese quesadilla was really good.“

“Our experience was wonderful! But they marked us as “no shows” with open table, which is a little bit of a bummer. We did modify our reservation online to be an hour later and for 2 people instead of 4. That may have prompted the error. The food was great. Plentiful and peaceful outdoor seating. Wonderful service, as always. I recommend the tuna melt with salad instead of chips. This place is a hidden treasure. Delicious!“

“Great pizza! Make sure to check out the salads and the homemade gnocchi“

“There is no where else in Chicago I would rather watch a game with my friends at! Parlay truly has it all, wonderful food and drinks, fantastic service always willing to accommodate anything! You will be doing yourself an absolute disservice by going anywhere else. Thankful for Parlay opening and all the good times it has provided.“

“Eravamo in 4 a cena e siamo rimasti soddisfatti sia del cibo che del servizio . Il locale era pieno di gente ma la cameriera Maria ci ha serviti velocemente e in maniera simpatica e professionale. Le pizze che abbiamo mangiato sono state ottime. Ristorante consigliato.“

“Ignore the weird racist comments – the food here is pretty good! Margarita was lovely, fries were great, schnitzel was juicy and tender. Falafel was nice and green, although a little underspiced. Staff was great and friendly. I will be back!“

“Vegetarian options: Had multiple milk alternatives for coffeeKid-friendliness: This is a 21+ only store, please don't bring your kidsWheelchair accessibility: Not very accessible, as the entrance is a stairway down into the store with no ramp.“

“Great food, family friendly!“

“Great Custard, hot dogs, & Service!“

“Deserves more than 5 stars! WONDERFUL experience each time I come here. Everything made from scratch. Not just pierogi ---Gelato, soups, empanadas, tamales, pizza pie (takes 50 mins to make from scratch and worth it!!) Premium Belgium chocolates, shakes, Coffee and most recent.....160 (yes one hundred and sixty) different premium teas from around the world!!.....and more to come! They also own the tea room and book store next to the cafe. Owners are THE BEST! Welcoming, personable and humorous. Dinning outside available and pups are welcome! You can tell they have a passion for the business. HIGHLY recommend! ENJOY!“

“They have the best tasting vegan chicken tenders I’ve ever had in my life. The seasoning on them are divine. The tater tots are a must!“

“This food and service is rare in Chicago. The food is rich authentic Italian. Let me stress the word “Rich”.The service is superb. Incredibly the servers always have a deep understanding of the menu and I’ve never felt like there is a rush to have us eat and leave. Over 6 years we have never been disappointed. It is clear the owners care about this business. Theyshare it with us with old world diligence and charm.“

“This has quickly become our favorite neighborhood business. Staff is super friendly, beer is great! Dog and kid friendly. If you haven’t been, get yourself there.“

“good food and good service“

“We had a delicious breakfast and the service was Excellent. Looking forward to coming back for lunch and mock tails.“

“This is such a great neighborhood spot. The service is impeccable. The food is delicious and they’re always mixing up new and unique drinks…coffee all the way to cocktails. I love that dogs are allowed out on the patio. It’s become a weekly walk stop on nice mornings for my pup and I!“

“Cozy brewery & distillery nestled in a neighborhood and against the train tracks & highway.Great selection of unique beers and cocktails made from in house spirits. Some of the beers you can find in stores, others are unique to the location.They do still do scheduled beer releases you may only be able to get on location.You can bring in food, but there's also a selection of pizza that is pretty good.Only gripe would be that it was a bit difficult to find, if you hug the road that goes against the tracks its very narrow and basically an alley. Part of the charm though, makes the place feel like it's hidden.“

“This is a hidden gem. Amazing! Must try great food, excellent coffee,“

“The food is amazing: tasty and healthy. I love it. Thank you for also baking the Masala biscuit for our dinner.“

“Original cocktails in an original setting. Very good service, very good drinks that you won't find everywhere (their own touch on the classics too), good ingredients and bottles behind the bar. Pick your atmosphere: you can sit a the counter where it's more like a speakeasy, or at a table in the bustling bar, or in the lobby area of the apartment building where it's more like a quieter lounge. My favorite bar in uptown.“

“Dedication and information is very supportive.“

“Absolutely love this spot. The food is delicious, servers are really helpful and kind and the area is super quiet and chill. The trivia nights are a lot of fun! They draw a big crowd, so if you’re looking for a relaxed place to grab a drink during the week, maybe avoid trivia night ;)“

“Best Coffee, Great Event, we love the spot!“

“2nd time coming here. Food is phenomenal. Never had chicken with honey butter or pimento cheese with fries. When you put the butter on the chicken, the melted butter, the crispy texture, and the juices of the chicken just melts in your mouth. As far as the pimento cheese goes, the sauce has a bit of a tomato hint blending in with the cheese when you have it with the fries.“

“Cafe Nova is a MUST try. Get the curry plate so you can taste as many things as possible! The parotta is crisp, flaky, filling, and perfectly toasted. The flavors of everything (lassi, samosa, curries)are complex, fresh, and fragrant. And the masala fries are addicting!!The restaurant is spacious and clean, the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, the staff are incredibly friendly, and we were even offered tea on the house! Great value for the price too. I would absolutely come back the next time I’m in Chicago.Vegetarian options: Option to make most things vegan“

“This place has so much to choose from! Soft serve, so many ice cream flavor, so many toppings, shaved ice, shakes, banana split, etc.“

“This is the most amazing cocktail bar I’ve ever been to and it’s not even close. The size of the bar is perfectly intimate; the music selection is perfectly chill; the neighborhood vibe isn’t off putting to strangers (I’m from San Francisco) and very welcoming overall; the decor is beautiful, not too posh but just enough that you know you’re in an establishment that takes what they do seriously. Last but not least, Britt (bartender) was amazingly talented, knowledgeable, passionate and skilled at cocktail making. She makes a great cocktail and will educate you if you let her, making your experience all the better since you learn how to appreciate her craft more. Like I said, best cocktail bar I’ve ever been to and it’s not even close.“

“Tonight, the Wife and I asked for a table of 4, saw multiple tables open. Host replied with "Looks like we're not going to have table free for the rest of the night." Our 2 friends walked in about 5 minutes after us for a table, Host proceeds to not automatically deny them and asks the servers. Servers apparently had a problem with having another table until another server came worked it out. Finally, Wife and I walk back in to join our friends and overhear 2 servers discussing with the host about not seating anyone after 9pm (they close at midnight btw) Great to know that you wanting to close early is more important than actually doing your jobs and making easy money (we only got drinks and 2 apps) Pathetic, will not come back. Sayonara!“

“great cookies, stellar coffee, incredible staff. consistently high quality environment to meet friends and colleagues alike.“

“We did our first of many double dates at Frasca's in Lakeview. Couldn't recommend coming here more. The food was really good, the service was so friendly and fun, and the ambience is neighborhood gem. They do substitute for gluten free pasta and the nood was perfectly al dente. Perfect place to bring parents when they come to town and date night.“

“Okay, apart from the incredible beers and the fact that the sun shines in most of the day, Spiteful Brewing has the best bathroom in Chicago. 10/10 immaculate, cleanliness top notch, nice marmalade smell and quick dispensing paper towel machine. Epic. Would crawl in a deep hole in this bathroom to emerge like a phoenix through the ashes“

“We just moved to the area and my wife and I finally made it to Websters wine bar. We were greeted by the friendly hostess, and made our way to the overflow bar in the back. The setting was quaint and intimate.We were greeted by the knowledgeable beverage director Nick. He brought a taste of a nice Bordeaux as a welcome gesture which we appreciated. We gravitated toward an Italian bottle and had the frites. The aioli was pleasantly citus forward.Thank you for the hospitality!“

“Steel Fitness cafe makes my busy life a little less stressful but preparing healthy and delicious meals. From the smoothies to the healthy desserts and freshly made food, you can never go wrong with choosing something off their menu.“

“Stopped in for Saturday brunch. Was seated after a short wait. Everything was wonderful… the food was excellent (crazy delicious lemon raspberry brioche French toast), attentive service, and very reasonable prices. Looking forward to going back (want to try the breakfast bread pudding)! I took one star off atmosphere for a bit of noise (acoustics), but it didn’t detract from the overall experience.Parking: Metered street parking“

“For the love of everything that is good please do NOT change your sourcing or your recipes. Every dish was perfection. We drove all the way from Elgin and will continue to do so. The food and service are exceptional.Parking: Parking is located in a public space under the restaurant.“

“Best pizza ever....Just returned from Rome location and line was down the block to take out the delicious delicacy!“

“True European deli with fresh and tasty offerings, great selection of wine, free wine tasting and coffee. The owner and staff are kind and make you feel like family.“

“The coolest bar in Rogers Park! They have a small but fun cocktail selection, great beer & cider selection, super super friendly staff and the best vibes. They have no food but you are allowed to bring any takeout you want or you can directly order to your table from any restaurant you want. Such chill vibes honestly. We were here as a huge group last week for our friends birthday party (about 40 of us) and our waiter has been a saint with taking sssoooo many orders and hand delivering them to the correct person, and with the most fun attitude too! It honestly doesn’t get better than this.“

“Beer spot with around 20 beers on draft. They don't sell food, only a few snacks but You can bring your own food, play some games or to go there for trivia. Very cosy place with a good selection of can beers ( around 200). Cool place to hang out with some friends on afternoon or evening . Highly recommend “

“What an amazing time! The Breakfast Pie (Louisiana Hand Pie) was absolutely delicious, and their Matcha was the perfect accompaniment. The service was incredibly friendly and welcoming - I felt right at home! The decor, with its New Orleans vibes and charming masks, creates such a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Loved every moment of my visit!“

“I recently visited Volo Wine Bar and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! The ambiance of the patio was simply amazing, providing a perfect setting to enjoy a glass of wine. The happy hour deals were fantastic, offering a wide selection of wines at great prices. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Volo Wine Bar for anyone looking for a cozy and inviting spot to unwind and enjoy quality wine. A definite 5-star experience!“

“Gelato is so delicious! Every flavor I've tried had been so good, they always so vegan flavors as well and often have cool events!“

“We celebrated a graduation with family and Alma was the perfect setting for this event. We sat at an outside table with the ballgame on and ambiance was lovely. Food and drinks were fantastic and the service was excellent. Our server, Jane, even put congratulations graduate signs on our table for us to take pictures with. Would 100% recommend this restaurant.“

“I ordered the chicken bowl and it was so delicious! But the sauces are so amazing!“

“This place is amazing! The food, service and atmosphere are unbeatable. You won’t regret it, thanks smack dab!“

“Yowza! These are some of the best sandwiches ever! Just popped in here for the 1st time and loved what we ordered. Delish and a real value. The sandwiches are bigger than a plate. They were terrific. The next time I need a food for an open house for my real estate business, I am going to buy it from here. www.SarahRothschild.com“

“My favorite cold brew in the city – it's Kyoto style and you can taste the extra care that goes into this process. A lot of cold brew in the city is fine, but often one-note bitter. You can really get the different notes in the three different roasts. It might ruin other cold brew for you!“

“Great experience. Excellent service, good wine, great food, wonderful atmosphere“

“Best coffee i’ve ever tasted. Well balanced, complex yet smooth...a true delight.“

“Tom (not Todd) is the best bartender. This place has the best vibe. Can’t wait to go back.“
