50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Vancouver

“It is superb! Great link between front of the house, our server + Rev, and the kitchen. Fabulous good, atmosphere and wine. Will be back soon. 🥂“

“Very cozy restaurant, I highly recommend the Bigoli Nero - the best tasting seafood pasta I've ever had. The staff provided friendly and excellent service too.“

“I ate at Zarak last night for the first time and I was blown away. Every Single Dish was spectacular!!! The portions were generous, the flavours are like nothing I have ever experienced and the cocktails... Run don't Walk to Zarak. Special mention: The service was great. All the staff were attentive, informative and happy. What a treat. I will be back!“

“This is your “must go place” for authentic hot pot experience. We celebrated my husband’s birthday there today.

Food is so tasty with so many choices of soup bases. Spicy flavour tomato flavour are highly recommended. Beef quality is the best. We ordered 12 dishes of meat for four adults. Free ice cream is provided as well.

Service cannot be better. They have had the table decorated for us with happy birthday signs. Can you believe that the server even helped us to peel shrimp shells! My baby is only one year old and he was fussy sometimes. Different servers came with different types of toys to make him happy.

On our way back home, I got a call from Jessie that she apologized for not singing a happy birthday song for my husband. She even dropped a whole package of birthday gifts to our house with our permission.

I can never forget this best service I have ever had.“

“We came for a good bye dinner with our team. Our company closed and Glowbal was selected by numerous recommendations from our other colleagues. It was an amazing atmosphere and definitely super-tasty food. When the time for dessert came, our beautiful waitresses came with our ordered sweet cake with “Happy Unemployment “ writing on the plate. It was a bittersweet moment for all of us but our mood instantly switched to laughter and we almost forgot the cause of our gathering“

“Service, food, and drinks were great! We really enjoyed “The Mac Dog” and chips. The atmosphere is super cool, as well. There’s a cute indoor area and a little patio outside. The flight of beers were basically full-sized drinks, so be careful! lol! Ardy was fantastic, thank you!“

“Amazing service from Olivia. This lady is one of the best if not the best servers I have ever had at any restaurant bar-none!!“

“I had an incredible meal here recently. The quality of the food was outstanding. Every dish we ordered was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly.

I particularly loved how fresh the vegetables looked in all of our plates. The combination of broccoli and vibrant red peppers in the noodle dishes was a highlight. You can really tell they care about the ingredients they use. I will definitely be back again soon.“

“Great food and excellent service! The Chicken Yaki Udon was delicious, with fresh ingredients and a flavorful sauce. The sushi and other dishes were also incredibly tasty and well-prepared. The food arrived hot and still steaming, which made the experience even better. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this restaurant to others!“

“Great food for celiac! However not the best service. Called ahead to pick up my order. Guy at the front said it was not ready yet. Turns out my food was sitting there ready at the counter since I walked in the door 20 mins prior 🫠
Be sure to check yourself if your order is ready or not !“

“I gave this place a try after finding my favorite authentic Mexican restaurant on Broadway closed. This spot had a lot of great reviews, and I can see why. It is primarily a grocery shop specializing in Mexican condiments and products at the front, but they also serve street-style tacos from a tiny counter in the far back behind the cash register. It’s meant for quick eats or takeout, with just a small side counter to sit. It is not a full sit-down dine-in experience like the restaurant right next door (which is easy to confuse it with at first glance).

The owner is very task-oriented and focused, but professional and efficient at getting orders out quickly. If you're looking for great, quick tacos, this is probably the closest to traditional street-style that I’m aware of in the area.

The tacos themselves were excellent. Even though they are highly authentic in their preparation, I wouldn't let that scare anyone away over worries about heat. I’m quite used to spicy food, but even when their hottest salsa was generously applied on my request, I barely noticed any kick. Therefore, I don't think the average person will need to worry about the spice level being overwhelming here.

Highly recommended for quick, authentic street tacos on the go.“

“Visiting Vancouver as the last leg of a cross-country trip and stumbled across Oku Izakaya. Even though the restaurant fully booked online we were swiftly seated. Great range of hot and cold Japanese food. Specifically the hot potatoes balls - would definitely go back for those alone!“

“Alright where do I start. What’s better..the food or the service? Both are hands down elite in all aspects. Let’s start with the service. Olivia G and Sasha are two of the kindest all around human beings I’ve interacted with. They accommodate for my food allergies every visit. They consistently show up ready to serve at a moments notice. That’s what it takes to be elite. Now for the food. The menu speaks for itself, as it offers unbeatable appetizers with cutting edge main courses. Give this place a try. You heard it from me.“

“We sat and our waiter brought dishes. An excellent experience. A tad loud as there are lots of tables in a small space. Cocktails listed were numerous - ok on the taste. Overall, recommend!“

“wow this is amazing! I had the gluten free Crist with all vegan options. so delicious. you have to try it!!“

“Clean place with friendly staff and a tasty vegan menu plus a great selection of local beverages. Highly recommended“

“great food and great service, very friendly“

“Reservations for 10 in the bar to celebrate my mom’s birthday-the staff were great and food was amazing as usual !“

“Highly recommend! Food, services and the environment are PERFECT!!! Definitely will recommend to everyone around me!“

“This place has the very best burrito in all of Vancouver and I’ve tried them all. Their ingredients are so fresh. Everything is just perfect and the customization is incredible. The price is also really really good especially if you use their app to order the food. They’ll even give you reward points plus a discount on top of that. You can’t go wrong with this place. Gotta try it if you haven’t been there before.“

“Great service. Great Food. My go to place for Thai food!“

“We have lunched and dinned here for decades, through changes and renovations.
The service attained and maintained a consistent level of efficiency and courtesy for the last 2 decades.
We enjoy the dim sums which are always delicate, light but flavourful.
For dinner, some spectacular dishes require pre-orders. We always enjoyed the braised duck on a bed of savoury mixed mushroom (forgot the proper name of the dish), and many more.“

“I had such a great experience at Pressato Sandwich Bar! The sandwiches are incredibly fresh and full of flavor, definitely some of the best European style sandwiches I've had in Vancouver. You can really tell they use quality ingredients, and every bite tastes authentic.
I also tried their coffee, and it paired perfectly with the sandwich. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful.
A special thanks to Stephan, who was so kind, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. He took the time to explain the menu and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in.
If you're looking for a place that brings real European flavors with excellent service, this is definitely worth visiting. I'll absolutely be coming back to try more from the menu. Highly recommended!“

“Had some excellent sharing plates (4). loved the spring rolls wrapped in lettuce and the mushroom "wings" . Make a rez, it is a small space.“

“Amazing creme brûlée ❤️ Cute little shop, with a lovely atmosphere“

“We accidentally found this unique breakfast spot close by to our AirBnB.
The staff, music, art and food pairings are wonderful. Also, a great Flat White! Hours 8 - 3p. You should try this place, today.
Reward yourself. ✌❤💪“

“A hidden cafe with delicious foods and yummy drinks! Both my bf and I were happy with the food we ordered! Everything was super fresh and flavourful! I especially loved the smoky flavour of the Tofu Misoyaki! The bird seed cookie was also great, though a tad too sweet for me~ I did love how light the banana bread was! Both drinks were not too sweet either~ Would definitely drop by again if I’m in the area for lunch! The food was healthy but delicious~“

“What a cool place! Loved spending time with the kitties and trying the menu“

“Tiny, cosy and homey Italian restaurant like we miss nowadays !
Thoughtful service, the pastas were delicious, quantity and price which make sense, easy to access and after an afternoon in Kitsilano beach, you have a little 10-15min walk to appreciate the quiet neighborhood!
I recommend !“

“Incredible food!!!! Husband and I enjoyed the premiere Omakase meal and it was unreal and unforgettable! Every bite was delicious but it was so cool to watch the chef prepare each piece of fish. It was quiet and delicate and very clear the care and effort required for this meal. We’re from out of town but this was such a great find and experience for us!!“

“Amazing French Restaurant. Every dish we ordered was 10/10 and I will be craving the Pommes Dauphine till next visit.
There was live music as well which really enhanced the atmosphere.
Will be recommending this place to all my friends.“

“Great cocktails and excellent service“

“Maxine’s is the best! Best brunch, best dinner 💯“

“Loved the Lobster roll and the Spicy Marg! If you go, you should definitely try those out 👌🏼I could have 10 of those margs, but then they would have to carry me out, and no one wants to see that… 🤭💃🏻

Our server Paola’s recommendation was perfect, and the service she provided was excellent. Will definitely be asking for her next time I come around.“

“great service good food and great price“

“A great little sushi place! There are two seats for dine in but I did take out through their online ordering. The couple who runs the shop have the best hospitality. They care very deeply about the food and service!

The fish was amazingly fresh and I really enjoyed the saba shiso roll. I'm very excited to try they their other rolls next time!“

“February 10th, 2023 was such a tiring day. I had classes at UCW till late and, as a good hungry taurine, I had to eat something delicious to make me feel well. Also, it had to be mandatorily vegan, so I would also keep my mind in peace. While searching for a restaurant with vegan options, I saw this sushi one, called Cofu Pressed Sushi. It was not far from UCW Vancouver House (around 15 minutes by bus) and it would be open till 9:00 PM. So, I decided to go there. I called my husband and we met there. The restaurant is not that large, and they have just a few tables, just the way I like it. But the best, in my opinion, was that it was so clean, fragrant, and decorated with such a good neatness that I felt a cozy mood as soon as I entered. Nevertheless, we were very well welcomed by the server, and he explained the whole menu to us. Besides they former factors I mentioned, the latter is the most important in my opinion. The way I am hosted and treated in any commercial place makes the whole difference in my final perception. I took the Aichi combo from the Omakase Menu. This combo had plant-based tuna (made of jackfruit), tofu, avocado, fresh mix veggie, and a sauce made of vivid beets and spicy mayo. As for my husband, he chose the Ofu combo. It had plant-based salmon (made of carrot and konjac), pumpkin, eggplant, red & yellow bell pepper, and a sauce made of cilantro, cucumber, and wild carrot. As the picture shows, the dish presentations were so beautiful, showing the food as something delicate, that the sushi master really took care of it. Last, but not least, the taste. It was so delicious! Every bite mattered to me. I was hungry, but I took every sushi slowly to feel all flavours and had the best sensory experience. For some the amount of food may look little, but I guarantee it made me fill satisfied. As a whole, I felt really delighted and I wish to return there soon to order the other options.“

“Excellent the best“

“Absolutely LOVED their plant based menu! Very much recommend the oyster mushroom “calamari” 😍“

“Today I have an Americano（12 oz）with an extra shot of espresso（total 3）👍👍👍“

“With impeccable attention to every last detail from the Japandi-inspired zen like interior to each of the carefully curated artisanal offerings, in a world of ubiquitous coffee shops SLO Coffee has created something refreshingly different.“

“My husband and I shared the California Burrito! It was sooo delicious!!! The cheese on the outside was heavenly!!!“

“Maria’s Taverna had a great ambience and delicious food. I shared appetizers meat balls, spanakopita and taziki and hummus! So delicious I took a doggie bag home for my chicken souvlaki. Thanks I definitely recommend!“

“Todo delicioso, muy recomendable“

“Went to Pho & Roll for a work lunch with my team and really enjoyed it!

It’s a bit pricier than some other Vietnamese restaurants, but the food is tasty and the portions are generous. They also provide three optional spicy sauces and pickled garlic so you can customize the flavour to your liking.

I had the Bun Cha, and it was excellent. The fish sauce had great flavour, and the spring rolls added a delicious crunch and texture to the dish. I’d happily Pho & Roll again!“

“Louis is the best bartender and server ever!“

“Wonderful 60th Bday celebration today and excellent food! Definitely would come back!!“

“The lychee Jade tea that's on the top of their menu was such a cool and different item with delicious pieces that come thru the straw. With the useful seal it's even easy to take home for next morning. Everything is kept pretty simple, elegant and beautiful here too. There was a really nice easy to order process and it still felt like the people working there were so caring and thoughtful🌹“

“Oh my gosh, wow. So good.“
