17 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Ladera Ranch

“We had a fantastic experience at The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill in Ladera Ranch! The food was incredible—fresh, flavorful Greek salad, tender meat and chicken, perfectly spiced rice, and delicious tzatziki. We loved it all and will definitely be back. A big thank you to Alejandro, who made the experience feel even more classy and special!“

“I love this gelato shop so much! Me and my friends come here and always have such a great time. Shout out to Jay who is amazing and always there. As the first person to try the strawberry sorbet, I must say it is delectable, especially when paired with the lemon sorbet. I love this place 🩷🩷🩷“

“Authentic crispy tavern style pizza. Delicious toppings, sauce and the right amount of heat for the Calabrian pizza. Hard to find good pizza in California and being originally from Chicago, we loved it!

Great service and the owners (Pat and Jim) were not only friendly but went above and beyond to make us feel “like family”. Super experience and we can’t wait to return and try more items from the menu.“

“Toastique is a great spot for fresh, aesthetically pleasing, and health-conscious options. I visited this past weekend and was able to try their 45g protein waffle, which is also gluten-free (BIG WIN).

We also ordered the seasonal fig toast, an açaí bowl, and an iced vanilla latte. Everything was so delicious, but the fig toast was definitely the standout for me. You can tell everything is thoughtfully prepared and made with quality ingredients.

One thing to note is that everything is handcrafted, so there may be a bit of a wait if it’s busy, but it’s def worth it. The space itself is beautiful, the menu is easy to navigate, and there are so many options it’s hard to choose just one.

It’s located in a plaza with plenty of parking, which makes it super convenient. I’d definitely recommend checking it out if you’re in the area and craving a yummy meal that will not disappoint!“

“Reduce decision fatigue by going to Oslo every day knowing that you’re getting the best in the area. It’s confident enough to let their flavors shine rather than overcompensating with sugar and syrup.

Get the Viking Tonic when it’s warm out and you need something refreshing, or the Oslo Fog (iced) or Folklore Flat White (iced or hot). If you’re lucky enough to catch a seasonal menu, they’re well tested and delicious. Baked goods are also pretty solid.

If you’re coming in peak hours, order online to skip the wait. Although waiting isn’t bad because the aesthetic and vibes are quite nice. Staff are friendly, awesome, and consistent - a marker for good management and reliable quality.“

“It's the most family friendly place that serves beer I've been to in quite some time. I would recommend.

Check out their merch. My favorite Tshirt came from this place. I'm an athletic husky and it fits me in all the right places.“

“Best place for local Italian! Highly recommended...“

“Amazing coffee and food. Very good ingredients.“

“BEST brunch in town! The employees are so friendly. The cocktails are delish! It’s our favorite weekend tradition.“

“OniGuru in Ladera Ranch is a clean, modern spot with really solid onigiri. Everything tastes fresh, the staff is friendly, and it’s easy to grab a quick, satisfying bite without feeling stuffed. Simple, cozy, and definitely worth checking out if you’re nearby 🍙“

“Excellent service and excellent prices - can't remember the last time I paid less than $9 for a full lunch. And it wasn't even Taco Tuesday. Also the server remembered my name even after I left 90 min later. They even threw in some free tortilla chips After I have been sitting for a while working. So fantastic all around. Thanks!“

“Always a great experience here. Staff is so polite and friendly. Food is amazing and portions always require a to go bag. Highly recommend“

“Beef dip sandwich…. So good“

“I’ve never been to a restaurant whether it’s fast food or dine in and consistently walk out of there with a smile. The kindest and nicest group of guys working there. I drive out of my way just to come to this location because of the guys that work in there. Great food and the absolute best customer service. 100/10. Thank you!“

“Delicious Chicago style and thin crust pizza. Their chicken wings were great too! They even had live entertainment outside. I will definitely come back again.“

“This was a surreal experience. I felt fully immersed in the atmosphere, thanks to the high quality food and wonderful service. I truly appreciate Christina, because she has brightened my day through her enthusiastic, kind personality. She puts special love and care into our strawberry açaís, and for that I am eternally grateful.“

“😁 I love this place! What a fantastic jumping off spot for all of downtown!“
