50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants La Mesa

“Very delicious and big portions! Love the sopas and Rueben sandwich!“

“T&A Adventures is @ The Hills Local Pub in La Mesa California having THE BEST BURGER of our adventures so far! I mean WOW! Juicy deliciousness! Garlic Parm Burger - Half Pound patty, candied jalapeño bacon, swiss, garlic aioli, arugula, tomato, brioche bun, parmesean crisp - Served w Fries. Absolute 🔥! Our Server "Jordan" was awesome too.“

“Oh my goodness- the food at this coffee house is so good. We ordered the “Signature Breakfast Sandwich” , the 2 Scone w/ flight of 6 Butter Sampler and a Vanilla Latte. The total bill came to $31 (not bad for the quality of food and drink). The breakfast sandwich was flavorful (bacon, egg, cheese and sauce). The bread was toasted to perfection and the house chipotle aioli sauce added an excellent touch. The butter for the scones were out of this world delicious; scones were baked perfectly. A+ is the score I’d give to this establishment.“

“I've been going to Nachos since 2010 and I've yet to find to taco shop that makes carne asada fries like them. I came back to visit and got them again and they're just as amazing as I remembered. 10/10 recommend - the nacho cheese is the best“

“This place food, ambience, decor, patio, services, etc, etc, etc gas not competition around san diego,“

“Swami's has the perfect local vibe with great food and great service! We recommend them to visitors and locals who don't know yet. It is a great La Mesa dining option!“

“Great breakfast and sandwiches. Cozy place with homemade food and great service!“

“Quaint . Great service and food“

“mamma mia signature is THE absolute best sandwich I've ever had in my life. staff is always friendly, food is always great, beer is always cold. what else can you ask for?“

“Awesome indoor + outdoor space with yummy food trucks, live music and friendly atmosphere.
Lots of drink options between the brewery & sour spot. Dogs allowed 🙏🏼 We had the best fried chicken sandwhich and with a dope band the other week. Want to go every weekend now…highly recommend!“

“We wandered into Coin Haus during the Oktoberfest and were thrilled we did so. It has a great business model where you fill your own cups. Since I really enjoy the variety of different drinks this was exactly what I wanted but didn’t know existed. I spent probably 30 minutes working my way around the different beverages. Plus there are super fun arcade games on the perimeter that use the same payment system, so it’s a one stop shop.

Big fan and I can’t wait to come back in a bit to try their new seasonal flavors.“

“If you want a mouth-gasm this is the burger joint for you! The best burger I’ve had…. And you get a free bracelet lol…. These burgers are huge so either bring your turkey pants or share it with someone you trust.“

“Every time we’ve gone, the food is good. They also have a good choice of craft beers on hand rotating. The service can be either really good or really bad. They have forgotten about us and left us waiting for a check for 40 minutes. I ordered a hamburger with two slices of cheese, when they served it the hamburger only had one slice. I asked the waitress if she could just take it back and add another slice of cheese. I am more than happy to pay for it. She blew a huffing sound, shrugged her shoulders and rolled her eyes and said whatever and walked away with the plate. When she brought it back, she sat the plate down and said, “Do you have enough cheese now”. My wife and I have actually enjoyed going to this place, but that waitress has turned me off for a while for sure.“

“My biscuit and gravy were the 💣! Can't wait to go back🙂“

“Came in 2/14 and got a surf and turf burrito, and Cali burrito. Service was excellent, and it smelled so good. Once we got home and ate, my surf and turf was on point. Been trying different burritos around SD, this is definitely in my top 5. Will be coming back for sure. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Great food! One of the best Philly Steaks in San Diego!“

“Great service! Warm chips and salsa served as you settle in… lots of yumm options to select from.. definitely recommend the tempura cauliflower appetizer! Unfortunately the chile relleno, corn enchiladas and kids cheese and bean burrito were all too cheesy for our liking. But if you enjoy cheesy food, you’d totally enjoy these.“

“3/5 for a first timer during restaurant week… the special menu was $50 per person…. we never got any bread with our dinner (and didn’t realize we were left out until we were on dessert)… and, portions were small, so the bread would have been nice, especially for $50… also, the server made us make our food order at the same time as our drinks… personally, i like to have a drink or two before i order my food… so, the service was rushed in that sense… and no one asked me if i wanted a second glass of wine i had the veal and my friend had the lobster ravioli… both tasted decently but, again, small portions… the burrata was amazing and the desserts (tiramisu and lava cake) were pleasant i think i’d like to try again on a night that isn’t as busy, and order off of the actual menu“

“Anthony's is our family's choice whenever we want a special dinner, especially since there's so many wonderful seafood dishes on the menu. All of the staff was very friendly and helpful on our recent visit, and the food was delicious. We enjoyed salmon pasta and steak, and lovely burnt creme for dessert. Having a view of the roaring Spokane Falls just added to the ambiance.“

“First time here and not disappointed. Didn't have a long wait like others said. The doma was excellent. I got the combo to try their meats - beef kabob, chicken Tikka, and beef shawarma. All were seasoned well, especially the shawarma...very bold. But it's the cook on the meat that set them apart! All 3 were tender, juicy, and savory. Too many overcook these but they just melted in my mouth. Highly recommended.“

“Best bar in San Diego super nice staff and great food“

“We had my daughter's 50th birthday celebration at Hooley's a week ago. The manager, server and staff were so accommodating, patient and helpful. Everyone had a great time and loved the food. About half of the guests had not been to Hooley's before and they were all very impressed. Would I recommend this place? You bet I do!“

“Sooooo good!!!!! I am trying “mostly” vegan this year so this was such a find! We got pastries for my sister’s birthday. She has lots of food sensitivities and can’t eat dairy. The PERFECT birthday treat! VERY friendly and helpful staff!“

“I love La Mesa Bistro team working is very nice, friendly and efficient. It’s clean and you can eat indoor or outside The food is all very good and ready quickly! My favorites açaí be wil and grilled Cheese on sourdough with artichokes and avocado. It’s fabulous- sorry I can’t remember the benefits of it. ?“

“I haven’t eaten at this place in over 10 years until recently. My wife and I were not disappointed in the slightest! We ordered the California burrito as we always do. Amazing fresh food and the employees were on top of it getting our food to us quickly. Highly recommend this place, they deserve more 5-star reviews!“

“I love this place so much. Super delicious and affordable. Personal favorites are the cream chop and the baklava! Highly recommend.“

“Carina our server was really great and the service is always amazing. Mario's is always our first stop when coming to San Diego.“

“The first time I visited the taco shop. I ordered the ground beef roll tacos, it was an option for small ones or big ones I order big ones and they were delicious. Taco shops rarely sell a ground beef roll taco. The service was pleasent and the food is a good price. I will be returning soon.“

“Good people and great location. The owner is great . Definitely recommended“

“Awesome wine bar, food trucks & live music! Highly recommended!“

“Lived in San Diego for decades. Rarely went out but always passed Chicos. Finally went there. Just found a neighborhood watering hole. Met a nice regular, a chef from the Grant. Bartender was great. Using the website, he made the unique frappe I asked for. Next it was beer for me. The selection was good and prices more than competitive. There are several pool tables and the Padre game was on the biggest screen. We'll be going back.“

“Great dive bar, easy access off and on the freeway and a great oasis on the way to magnolia to see a concert Friendly staff as well as the patrons“

“I live in New York and they have Best tortas and strawberry and cream cup on west coast. Whenever I come out from East coast this is my spot. Employee's are great. If ever in area you need to try. I love everything on menu I come daily for fresh squeezed juice and they have any combination of juices not on menu. They are best . Fruity Loco is my number # 1 smoothie spot in country.“

“Best coffee in San Diego!!!! ☕️✨“

“The Starbucks La Mesa location is by far the most pleasant and interactive exchange of greetings that welcome. Love the coffee and tea. Great place to meet and greet. The Baristas Rock!“

“Best sandwiches :) The bread makes it!“

“IDEN WAS GREAT!
My husband and I rolled into Olive Garden on a Friday night with what can only be described as hungry eyes and zero self-control. Luckily, we had Iden as our server. Not only was he on top of every refill, he also kept us laughing the entire time. The guy is kind, sharp, and effortlessly funny. You can just tell he's one of the good ones, out here working his way through college. Iden set the bar ridiculously high and went the extra mile to make our meal extra special.
Thanks for the entertainment, great service and the good laughs. We'll be back sooner than eight years!
-Dominika & Mario“
