38 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Lake Forest

“Nice place, the real Brazilian açaí ☀️“

“Great donuts and excellent service“

“If you're looking for hot chicken that's packed with flavor and not just heat, Redbird Hot Chicken & Fries needs to be on your radar~

What I loved most is how they focus on building real flavor first, then bringing in the perfect kick of spice. Every bite was crispy, juicy, well-seasoned, and had just the right amount of heat to keep you coming back for more

My absolute favorite was the Chicken Cheese Fries
Loaded with tender hot chicken, crispy fries, melty cheese, and flavorful toppings.

Beside that, the manager is super kind, he went over everything on the menu with us and give us the best recommendations“

“I love coming to this location. My go to meal is the chicken and koobideh plate. Every time I order it it taste so good and fresh. Their service is great, they have a good attitude and the food is always ready pretty fast.“

“The associate was friendly and very good at explaining everything. Regardless of your cookie selection, you cannot make a poor choice, as each flavor is exceptionally delicious and generously sized. We all shared each cookie so that we could sample every flavor.“

“Everything I've tried tastes amazingly close to how my mom or I would cook it at home, so much that I've ordered pretty much every week since first trying. So grateful to have this legit Lebanese food as a convenient nearby option. Just what Irvine needed!“

“Absolutely wonderful food and service. Never fails!“

“Best ice cream in town! I especially love the coconut cream pie. My family loves the Monkey Business too. Customer service is top notch. Isaac, my server was friendly and helpful. Will be back!“

“This is a great little bar in a strip mall with a more mature clientele, smoking patio, lots of TV's and a great grill. If you're into good food and drinks at a great price and good company without the kids, this is the spot. They have karaoke and frequent bands, generally classic rock vibe.“

“It was a great spot for a quiet chat with friends. I wasn't sure if the person serving us was an employee or the owner, but they were incredibly friendly—and the food was delicious, too! It’s the kind of place I’d almost rather keep all to myself.“

“Sashimi is a sushi restaurant located at the corner of Lake Forest Drive and Dimension Drive. It appears to be run by a Korean family and is a popular spot among the locals. They have a sushi bar, but we opted to dine at a table. Steve greeted us and was not only friendly and helpful, but his service level enhanced our overall dining experience.

We tried a number of dishes during our visit. Among my favorites were the Veggie Tempura, Salmon Nigiri, Lake Forest Roll (I appreciate that they allow substitutions so I subbed spicy yellowtail in place of the spicy tuna) and Special Carpaccio S. The Spicy Salmon cut roll was nothing special and tasted more like a California Roll. The Yellowtail Cheek was good, but it was more meaty and less tender than I've enjoyed at other Japanese restaurants. My wife ordered the Pink Lady, but I prefer my sushi with rice. All in all, we enjoyed our Sashimi experience and I'd recommend checking it out if you're in Lake Forest and in the mood for raw fish at a reasonable price.“

“Don't miss this wonderful place. Once you try BrioBrio's delicious food, you'll regret you hadn"t discovered It before. Thanks Naoko and Ruichi for feeding our body and soul!!!“

“Great food for breakfast and lunch too!! Fresh bagels sandwiches and salads... they are all great! �“

“I was first introduced to Mimi Garden getting take out. We ordered Boa Buns on a whim. Boy were we pleasantly surprised!
We have also had a seated dinner here. The interior is beautifully styled, elegant and inviting. The service was excellent and our food was delicious. We will definitely be back.“

“Steak quesadilla was extremely chewy and greasy so I sent it back and still got charged for it. Took 30 minutes to receive check and 15 minutes to get credit card back when it was not even that busy“

“One of the few places in town where you can get very good craft beer, with a great selection and friendly servers. Atmosphere is great with the unique colors, surfers theme, indoor and outdoor seating, and the food is amazing. The pastrami sandwiche is better than The Hat, just completely blows them away. All of the sandwiches are pretty amazing.
They just know how to do sandwiches. My favorite is the Baja beef with banana peppers and jalapeno. Just so good, it's not even funny.“

“Yuuum!!! Tried the queen bee drink. Was good and different. The boba was fresh and the creme brule at the bottom of the cup was tasty and fresh too. Cashier was friendly and I got my drink quick. Wasnt super busy. There was another couple that came in after me. Will come here again to try other drinks.“

“Always enjoy eating here, been a customer for 18+ years. For us it is worth the hour drive.“

“I’m so happy I found this place!!!

There used to be a bomb poke place next to my house off Trabuco but it closed about 3-4 years ago and I haven’t found a replacement yet. Tried a place close to this one and it reeked of fish the moment we walked through the door.
Saw this place on Google Maps, pulled into the parking lot and it just advertised drinks on the storefront. My wife and I were so deflated, but were hungry, so parked and we’re going to go next door. Once we walked up, we saw they did actually sell poke. Walked in, saw all the fresh fish, toppings, a great atmosphere and friendly staff. We ordered our bowls, LOVED them and can’t wait to make this a normal spot moving forward!!!“

“This is my second time having their pizzas after a great first experience, and they were just as delicious! We tried the butter chicken and chili paneer pizzas—both were bursting with flavor. You can tell they use very fresh ingredients, and the dough was perfectly soft, even the crust was amazing.

Definitely give this place a try—you won’t be disappointed! The service is excellent, and the staff are wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable about their menu.... They were the ones that recommended the chilli paneer and I'm so glad they did.“

“Love this place there food is so clean and tasty. Best chicken spot I have been to. I have been to almost all of them from Dave’s to hotties to Breds. But this one by far is the tastiest and most juicy. If you like your chicken juicy and crispy this is the place to try. Try them out asap if you havnt yet.“

“Great people, environment drinks etc, highly recommend“

“Great outdoor Funktions, chillin with some fresh air. 🍺 the staff is always great, food is amazing. Friday nights live dj nicknik and dj mark.“

“This place is great! Tons of room to work and organic options such as matcha. I did go one time and the business was still closed even though the hours said open online. They may have just opened late. Other than that, it is a spacious place great to work at and excellent food and matcha.“

“Clean and open. The coffee and smoothies are spot on. Everyone working there seems to be a bit of a “coffee nerd”. They really know their coffee! I would recommend it to anyone that prefers a higher quality coffee.“

“Inka Grill provides an authentic Peruvian dining experience that truly stands out in Orange County. The flavors and dishes transport you straight to Peru, making it a must-visit for anyone craving genuine Peruvian cuisine. The ambiance, service, and food quality are exceptional, offering a delightful escape to South America right in California. Highly recommended!“

“The pizza and spaghetti and meatballs was AMAZING! So delicious! 😊😋🥰🍕🇮🇹“

“Food is sooooo good. They crisp up the tortilla nicely before serving so the protein holds up well. This is an amazing spot!

PS: Shoutout to the owner Edgar, we thought we lost our phone here and he went above and beyond to help us find it. This place cares about their customers!!

We can't wait to bring friends whenever they come visit us. 5/5 tacos and salsas !“

“One of the best avocado blended boba around. The employees are polite and consistent and the atmosphere is always welcoming & fun. I love that it’s not super busy, but a steady flow. And the prices are fair for sure. All in all 👍👍“

“The best breakfast burrito and sandwich of my life. Linda’s knows how to be generous with their portions and make a hearty breakfast. I love this place, ever since I discovered it I’ve been telling all my friends and family. Their doughnuts are always so fresh and taste better than anywhere else and they have cute designs and variety of flavors. Their orange juice is actually hand squeezed unlike other places that say it is but really isn’t. I couldn’t rave about this place more really.“

“I ordered for take out twice in two days. The tomato and brisket noodle soup was a bit sweet but tasty. I like that noodles were chewy just about the right texture. The brown sugar sticky rice dessert was crunchy on the outside and soft inside, which was great. I came back to order more food the second morning when it just opened. The cashier wasn’t there. The kitchen staff came to help me. They were friendly and apologetic and offered us water and extra food while we waited for our order. I liked popcorn chicken. The pan fried pork buns were juicy. Overall, the food and the experience were great. I’d come back to try more food.“

“Casual and close, great spot for meet up.“

“We stopped by to grab lunch today and typically we have a hard time finding places to eat because my partner has a severe food allergy. Thankfully, we had a lot of help from Christian who was assisting customers with orders and he made sure our food was safe. It was excellent and the service was great. We will definitely be back again soon.“

“Our favorite is the open face Old Man Bagel with cream cheese and avocado on a toasted Jalapeno Cheese bagel. The staff member at the Dana Point location who prepared ours recently, put their heart and soul into making it. It was perfectly delicious.“

“I recommend the AYCE. All You Can Eat for a great price. The Sushi was very fresh and flavorful, the service very good and the Price was very reasonable. I would try the Jalapeño Poppers if you like a bite of spice and uniqueness! The Melon Soda was really good. Enjoy!!!“

“Awesome place, great bar-b-Que“

“Usually during lunch they have one waitress that covers the whole place so it can be a bit slow when ordering and getting your check. But the food is good. Only negative would be I wish they would turn on closed caption on the TV so you can at least read what the announcer is saying.“

“The Chick-Fil-A in Foothill Ranch is excellent! The chicken nuggets, waffle fries, Mac and cheese, and fruit cups are always freshly prepared and absolutely delicious! My two toddler sons and I go to this location approximately twice a week, and every visit I am always impressed by how good the service is and how incredibly CLEAN everything is. My sons absolutely love coming here, because the food is so yummy and they love playing in the indoor playground. Additionally, the owner of the Chick-Fil-A is amazing! She is very kind, helpful, and generous with customers. She takes the time to talk with my toddler sons every visit and it is evident that she truly cares about providing guests with a great experience! This is literally the BEST Chick-Fil-A location, and I highly recommend checking it out!“
