50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Foothill Ranch

“Hi. I was there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I had fish with shrimp (creole on top) . I sat in the bar & the waitress was nice but I asked her if the entry was spicy & she reassured me it was not spicy. Well, it DID have a big kick to it & I could only eat about 1/3 of it because of that. She never came back soon after she served it to ask me how it was or I would have told her it WAS spicy. Your caesar salad was DELICIOUS & I highly recommend it. And your cheesecake with raspberry topping was good too. Had a glass of wine also. Sorry but I won't be back because the entry I ordered was spicy & told it wasn't . That was disappointing.“

“Absolutely love Bravo Avo! Everyone who works here is genuinely kind and so attentive to every little detail…not just when taking your order, but in how they care for the entire restaurant. It’s spotless, welcoming, and beautifully maintained. The new look is stunning, great move on the lighter colors; they’ve truly leveled it up! And the food? Still top-tier, fresh, and full of flavor. This is what a family-run business is all about, all heart, quality, and pride in everything they do. The best in Foothill Ranch, hands down!“

“One of my all time favorite places. The people and management make It like “friends” but with a really unreal grilled cheese sandwich and soup. Get the soup with the sandwich. Add bacon. That is all.“

“My best friend and I had lunch there today. The food was excellent, my dirty martini was perfect (and much needed!), and our server, Jacob, was fabulous. We made a pact that we will meet there at least once a month. Thank you for a great afternoon! 🍸“

“Great coffee, and also a great place to just relax and get reading done 😊“

“Stopped in on a lark after arriving at Orange County Airport and having some time to kill. Great vibes, eclectic music 🎶 in the background, really kind and engaging service and a breakfast bowl that delivered a tasty vegetable and protein packed punch. Locals and regulars greeted warmly by the staff and us non-locals soon made to feel like we belonged as well. Hung out over coffee and played a board game with my wife —not rushed out. Really good experience.“

“Amazing smoothie bowls, lots of choices for great toppings! Very healthy. 🌱“

“The food is incredibly delicious!“

“My fiancé and I eat here all the time. There is a lot of variety, and the dishes are flavorful! I really love their chicken club sandwich and cheeseburger, but you really can’t go wrong with anything you choose. Staff is super friendly and helpful as well - shoutout to Lali and Nathan for providing amazing service!“

“Nice place, the real Brazilian açaí ☀️“

“Rarely do I find a restaurant where I want to try everything on the menu!! My friends and I had lunch here a few weeks ago; a few had been there before and they loved it. I was excited to try it. I ordered the Roasted Cauliflower and Chickpeas Bowl with added protein of grilled shrimp. It was absolutely delicious and so fresh…the shrimp was done perfectly. We also shared the cauliflower and dates appetizer. I was a little skeptical at first about the interesting combination, but they were fantastic…and addicting! I liked the overall atmosphere of the restaurant and the service was excellent too. My husband and I will be dining there tonight, and he is excited because there are several GF items he can try. I highly recommend this restaurant for their fresh and delicious foods!“

“Very well managed and great food.“

“Ate at the Jamboree location in Tustin and cashier Ali was courteous, kind, knowledgeable and very helpful in helping us understand the menu options. Even offered a couple samples to make sure we ordered something we’d enjoy. Great customer service!“

“The place is in a great location sit here have your coffee course go bye you can see the mountains. The service is amazing for food. Amazing you recommended by me and many of my friends and family. They even have organic food, which is awesome and gluten-free.“

“I have to say, this is the most extraordinary breakfast I've ever experienced. Each dish was incredibly unique, bursting with flavors that melded together beautifully. The presentation was stunning, and it was evident that a lot of thought went into creating this meal. From the perfectly cooked eggs to the artisanal bread and the fresh, vibrant fruits, every bite was a delightful surprise. The combination of tastes and textures was simply incredible, making it not just a meal, but a culinary adventure.“

“Nice experience here at Chuponcito in Aliso Viejo, Ca. Party of two on a Sunday around 10:30 am. Wait was about 10 minutes as we waited in line to order our food.

It was starting to get crowded. Limited parking lot spaces, limited inside seating. Inside and outside seating available.

Clean restaurant, enjoyable background music, and friendly staff.

I did love their Banana Latte, it was sweet enough to not be too sweet. The food was good. My wife loved their sopes. I just had an omelette.

My omelette was good, just not filling. A bit disappointed there, but maybe I just eat too much!

Try it out if you are around the area!“

“Each dish is spectacular. Love the calamari ….can be an appetizer to share or eat on your own with a salad. 230:Forest Avenue never disappoints!!!“

“Great Italian Ice cream, good service and fun place for all ages!“

“Traveling with my partner and mother-in-law who are gluten free and also allergic to dairy we’re always looking for places that have a labeled menu or can give good options. The waiter helped us find a couple of great options (goat curry, Chana masala, and mint chicken) which were great!“

“Husband and I went there last night during Haunt Hopping in Santa Ana -- and WOW!! Absolutely delicious, filling burgers and crispiest, hottest fries! Very friendly service. Hoping they open some locations near us, but until then, we'll make special trips -- they're that good!“

“I had an amazing experience, worth spending $60. Went there with my mom and the service was great. Syeda was very kind and her friendly personality was a cherry on top of all the other things the restaurant had to offer. Highly, highly recommended.“

“Wonderful food and great service!“

“Love this place! The owners are wonderful people. Every time I go I feel like I’m family. The wines are amazing (try the Olsen’s Ovation), and they are huge supporters of the live music community. Please support this incredible local business ❤️“

“We discovered this place when visiting Laguna in February…. So glad we did! Love the owners and what they represent. Loved so much we purchased a monthly subscription so we can enjoy their amazing coffee all the way in Alabama!“

“Had a great meal and wine with friends. We did have to ask for olive oil and vinegar after they brought us the wonderful rosemary bread, but hey, no biggie. Otherwise, service was great!!“

“My fiance and I were in the area for my nephew's wedding. On Sunday morning, we looked for a breakfast location. We prefer the small local restaurants as opposed to the chains. Up popped this Laguna Cafe, close by where we were staying. From the time we entered the door, it was obvious we picked the right spot! it was cozy, homey, friendly and downright delicious. The clientele were all laughing, enjoying the morning and the atmosphere. We got served by Monja, the proprietor, who wore a shirt with our favorite scripture, John 3:16. As we bowed our heads to pray, she gently joined us in prayer. What a blessing. Needless to say, we will go back when in the area. Highly recommend the food too! And say Hi to Monja from Mark and Dianne from Arizona!“

“This is the best Hawaiian Breakfast location in Laguna Niguel!! Well done!“

“Amazing food and the staff were so incredibly nice! I keep telling everyone about it. I’m coming BACK.“

“they always change their menu. we drive down here from irvine to find out what we like ismt on the menu today its only on the menu on certain days we asked the server when is it on the menu and he didnt know. We won't be back. how hard is it to keep the menu the same? I can see lunch and dinner menus but changin the dinner menus all the time?“

“They catered our monthly event we call "Together" at Calvary Chapel Pacific Hills last night and all of their food was fabulous! I wish I had known about them for my upcoming Fiesta event in May at my mobile home park. Well I know who will be catering it next year: TB!!!😋🥰😃“

“KELSIE KELSIE KELSIE....I had to take the time to give my sincere and true appreciation for one of the workers at this location. She always has the best energy and her smile is soo warming. Tonight she turned out what was going to be a disaster birthday for my roommate and totally turned it around for me. They were out of the deliciously AMAZING Oreo Cream Pie Cookie ( IF YOU HAVNT HAD THIS YOU'RE TOTALLY MISSING OUT) for the day and it was 20 mins from closing. She went above and beyond to make sure I left with enough Oreo Pies and then some to complete my birthday desert gift and I cant THANK HER ENOUG!!! KELSIE THANK YOU FOR BEING A GREAT EMPLOYEE AND GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND FOR ME TONIGHT. ITS EMPLOYEES LIKE YOU THAT WILL KEEP ME COMING TO THIS STORE ONLY AND TELLING ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY ABOUT YOUR LOCATION. I GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR KINDNESS AND HARD WORK 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽“

“Redbird was an amazing experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is beautiful and welcoming, the service is attentive and professional, and the food is absolutely outstanding. Every dish was flavorful, well-prepared, and thoughtfully presented. The cocktails were just as impressive and paired perfectly with the meal. Overall, Redbird delivers great food, great service, and a memorable dining experience definitely a place worth coming back to.“

“Healthy food that is actually very tasty! It is clean and the service friendly and professional.“

“Local diner, perfect for a weekend meal. Various coffee, decent menu selection, nice staff.

We ordered the eggs Benedict and a Lake Forest burrito. Both portions were perfect, maybe on the big side for some. Quality of the food was great, possibly all scratch made.

It's a nice place for breakfast with a mellow atmosphere.“

“Best acai bowls my kids and I have ever had! Highly recommend!“

“Halal spot ; Dizzy Bird is located in a mall, specialize in rotisserie chicken and also offer wraps, which looked pretty good. I went for their whole rotisserie chicken meal with 2 sides — it was around $35. A bit pricier than nearby spots, but considering it’s halal (and halal options are usually limited), it makes sense.

The chicken itself was super juicy, tender, and full of flavor — definitely the highlight of the meal. As for the sides, I tried the fries and rice. They were just okay — not bad, but nothing memorable either.

Overall, solid choice if you’re craving halal rotisserie chicken. I’d come back for the chicken alone!“

“Best French pastries and bread anywhere! This place is amazing and the staff and owner are nothing less than exceptional.“

“The Chili Fries, and the Stand Burger is the Best.“

“Always like coming here for a quick, fresh lunch while I’m working on UCI campus. I especially like the salads - falafel on a Mediterranean salad is delicious. Very friendly staff!“

“its new so this is first time. love my tea. going back to try the other things“

“This place- wow! Honestly one of the best meals I've had in a long time. It was DELICIOUS. and felt good and fresh and healthy. The server/order taker was incredibly friendly and helpful. I got a chicken plate (Malai Tikka) and my husband got a butter chicken curry. Both delicious. The water was even yummy- infused with lemon, mint and cucumber.“

“Dolce Gelato is by far the BEST Gelato! Both the vegan and non-vegan options are uniquely crafted and simply scrumptious.“

“Went with my parents for an early Christmas dinner and service was great… food was delicious… and atmosphere was on point!“

“We visited on a Sunday night and this was the most fun we had on our vacation. The karaoke atmosphere was so friendly and welcoming— as an introvert I felt like I was at home with my besties. This is the greatest place in the Irvine area — if I could give 10 stars out of 5, I would!“

“The iced chai, churro latte (hot or cold) and their bagels are to die for. I live out of state but cannot wait to go back when I’m in So Cal! Employees are so nice too - seems as though they are very happy working there:)“

“This place has such consistently good food. they don’t have interior seating, but they do have some outdoor seats. Typically I just come here for food pick ups. The panko chicken is my favorite. Something about their rice flavoring makes it so much better as well. Overall it’s a solid place for a healthy great tasting meal.“

“Aurelia (Manager) & Manny provided amazing customer service that exceeded any I have received at a restaurant in a very long time! I had an issue with my order and they went above and beyond to speak with their team, circle back to me, and address the issue. The food was delicious, as well. I will return here!“

“pasta , lasagna very friendly polite and helpful waiter“

“Absolutely amazing we like the Marguerite, Cheese and the PMS pepperoni mushroom and sausage Gluten-free the fabulous antipasto salad all so worth it. Just eat my leftovers 😍“
