41 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in Del Mar

“This was our first time eating Peruvian The food was tasty, fresh and great portions.“

“First visit, I had the Chimichurri Tri-Tip plate ($20.95).
The tri-tip was very good, nicely done. Good flavor and good serving size. Chimicurri sauce was also very good. The fries were served hot and crisp, mixed grilled veg serving was very small, focaccia bread (not shown) was fresh.
The counter service was slow, we were ignored for too long, with no acknowledgement.
We sat on outside patio area, staff was slow to clean tables (there were crows feeding off the leftover plates).“

“Happy hour is bomb. $1.50 oysters, $6 shrimp tempura,“

“What a gem! We’re in town for the week and got a good recommendation to stop by Harry’s Coffee in Del Mar. Our local family said it was their go-to spot. We loved the bright and cheerful atmosphere, the service was excellent, friendly and welcoming. We ordered the turkey club - unbeatable, fresh with quality ingredients. This is a special place! We’ll definitely be back. HIGHLY recommend you add this spot to your list.“

“Excellent gelato shop right in Del Mar. Tried dark chocolate, pistachio, strawberry and mango. Some of the best anywhere including Italy and US. Please open in Laguna Niguel! Amazing, but chocolate outlandish! Don't be fooled, not a hat store!“

“One of our favorite places to eat when visiting!!! Great food, cocktails are yummy…I had a Bloody Mary during our breakfast and it was so good! The right amount of spice and flavor. Joe the gentleman at the bar was as super nice and wanted to make sure we were happy with everything!!! We will be back at least once before flying home. Food and service are terrific!!!“

“We have been looking for a place that served tasty Acai Bowls…Our favorite Acai bowl places either, closed down, burned down or changed the way they made their Acai bowls…We found Liquid Bean Café on the internet and decided to give it a try…Well, we both had the Acai bowls but I added an Egg Salad Sandwich pressed in a Panini press to our order…The Acai Bowls were fresh and totally delicious!!!…I really liked the Egg Salad Sandwich and loved the way it was pressed and toasted in the Panini press…We highly recommend Liquid Bean Café if you are ever in the Del Mar area…We will definitely be back again!!!…Five Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“delicious food, lovely atmosphere, great service“

“It’s our annual place to be every August for the last 17 years: celebrating 50 years of marriage! The food, service and atmosphere right on the beach is heavenly. Our bartender Steve congratulated us and we talked for a short time. Everyone is so friendly, can’t beat the quality of their meals ! We drive out from Phoenix to have their specialty. Well worth the ride❤️❤️❤️“

“I enjoyed the Ginger Miso salad“

“Best pizza I’ve had in as long as I can remember!!! It was fantastic!!! Super friendly on the phone when they called confirming my Internet order (I’m really impressed they reached out to confirm - above and beyond great customer service!) and the delivery person was incredibly nice! Delivery was lightening fast. Highly recommend!“

“Best grilled shrimp taco I've ever had, quite literally. The flavors, the presentation, it was exquisite. I walked in on a whim, due to the inviting ambiance, and the food, drink, and service (special shout out to Rudy!) was phenomenal. Highly recommend when visiting Del Mar!“

“Hands down the view during the day is incredible the waite staff mine specifically was Tito was great. I believe it was the GM that introduced himself. His name was Nathan who was super personable and very interested in our experience and our dining satisfaction. The selection was excellent. Both the beverage selection, as well as the food and like I said the entire environment, it's just relaxing, yet upscale enough to know that this is a quality place where you can come in shorts and a nice shirt, but it's also a dress to impress type of vibe to it.“

“This bustling place has been growing. I’d love to see one or two up North in Oregon. Good skate parks and beers. Or maybe I just have enjoy the SOCal that much.“

“Pancakes are so good! One order is enough for two. And wherever they get their bacon? Delicious!“

“My husband, daughter and I stumbled upon this coffee shop one morning while taking a stroll. The barista working was as sweet as pie. She made my toddlers day! She created a strawberry sprinkle drink for my three year old, helped me curate a low caffeine drink for myself and made my husband a delicious iced americano! Coffee was great! Drinks were great! Almond croissant was amazing! Service was impeccable. Must stop by when you’re at the Del Mar Plaza!“

“Our first meal at this fine dining Vietnamese restaurant was the best Vietnamese meal we've had in San Diego. My wife and I found this gem by accident, but we'll definitely return whenever we're in northern San Diego. Good selection of wine, and don't forget to order the braised chicken :)“

“Great food! I had the lamb shank and it was so tender, it fell off the bone. Service was great!“

“A very cozy place! The coffee is sometimes delicious—it probably depends on the barista; I wish every barista working for the company were properly qualified. I ordered one shot of espresso and two shots of water online, but when I received the order, the 300ml cup was completely full. I pointed out that I had asked for only half a cup, but the barista simply poured out half of it instead of remaking the drink. It doesn't take a genius to realize that pouring out half the cup means the coffee concentration won't be what I asked for.“

“Delicious food and great value, great atmosphere“

“Breakfast menu😘 excellent aervice“

“Food was amazing. Ordered a breakfast burrito and got the chunky salsa with it absolutely delicious. I also came back the following day got a california burrito absolutely hit the spot will be returning to this spot whenever I am in the area.“

“I kept wondering if Mrs Craig Vanessa was really an expert trader like they say, that she is not a scammer like the others, then I contacted her and I was shocked and amazed that with just $1,500 I invested, Mrs. Craig Vanessa helped me managed my account and after 7 Days of trading, I made my first withdrawal of $16,700. I'm here to testify the good work of her after she made a good profit for me in my investment. She's reachable via WhatsApp with the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“We were a party of five at your Le Mesa location on 3/22/26 and I believe our server's name was Diana. Our experience was absolutely fantastic! The food was superb, the facility was spotless and every member of the staff that interacted with was professional, helpful and friendly. Diana was fantastic! She has the perfect balance of friendly efficiency, light humor to match our personalities and spot on timing to check in with us. We can't wait to visit again! Thank you.“

“Stopped for lunch. It was my first time at this restaurant. The manager, Brody was extremely welcoming, professional, and personable. He gave me and my wife suggestions on what to order and explained how the food was prepared. We took his suggestion and the food was delicious! I would rate the cheese burger as one of my top 3 best burger i have ever eaten. I highly recommend visiting this establishment. The restaurant was clean and the service was top notch!“

“If you’re in Del Mar and not stopping by Jimmy O’s, you’re missing out. The vibe, the energy, the people — everything is top-tier. Massive shoutout to Casey and Chris — absolute gents who made the entire experience unforgettable. From the moment we walked in, they treated us like regulars. Whether you’re local or just visiting, this is the place to be. Good drinks, great crowd, and even better service. Can’t wait to come back!“

“We had an amazing stay at L'Auberge Del Mar. The hotel was stunning—beautifully updated with modern finishes and stylish furnishings. Our room was exceptional, featuring an incredibly comfortable bed, luxurious bedding, a marble bathroom, and a breathtaking ocean view from the balcony. The hot tub was a perfect temperature for the cool May evening. On Saturday night, there was a gorgeous wedding on the rooftop, and we enjoyed listening to the music from the hot tub. It wrapped up around 10:30 p.m., allowing for a peaceful and restful night’s sleep. The staff was extremely courteous, and the valet service was top-notch. We will absolutely return to this beautiful hotel and highly recommend it to anyone considering a stay—don’t hesitate to book your room!“

“Only had lunch here two times but it was absolutely the best deli meal I have had and I am originally from Manhattan. The food is the best, generous portions, the staff is great, prices are good for today’s times and for what you get. We will be back!!!❤️“
