50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Los Gatos

“This is exactly what Los Gatos needed! I am rarely a regular at a nice restaurant but I come here for lunch and dinner a few times a month. The food is amazing! The Hospitality is amazing! The Vibe is Amazing! Whether you are having a quick lunch or celebrating a big life event, this is THE SPOT to go to! I love the touch of having a DJ during brunch, it really brings the experience to the next level. Recently they added the BurgerBot which is something I have never seen before. In one year of opening, they continue to innovate and elevate every part of the experience.“

“Best cocktail bar in the South Bay!“

“I had a fantastic experience doing the tasting menu and the wine pairing. Lots of small perfectly executed dishes, served at a good cadence. Lots of the ingredients were foraged, including some of the seafood. The wines in the pairing were great, especially considering the price point of the pairing was very reasonable - for so many pours of wine. I understand that the menu is constantly changing - so I'm sure I'll be going back soon.“

“Outstanding food and service. Highly recommend as the best Italian Restuarant in the Bay Area“

“Delicious food, fabulous staff. A must try“

“I attended a Chemex Kenz coffee tasting and love their Hambala. Their love and passion for coffee translates in the quality of their beans. I’m glad I can also enjoy their brew at Sue’s Cafe in Downtown Saratoga.“

“Always excellent service and a great experience“

“The Out of the Barrel taproom is IMO the best place for ales, IPA’s, sours, porters and more in Los Gatos. There is a large board clearly listing the beers and helpful bartenders that can guide you to the right tipple. The patio area is nice but can get hot during mid summer. My only real complaint is the food. It’s just simple baked items that aren’t very flavorful. I’d like to see something fresh on the menu.“

“This place is GORGEOUS! Beautiful inside and very very beautiful views outside. The wine was very good too, we did the Wright station flight for $20, and all 4 wines were great. We were helped by Rachel, who was very knowledgeable and sweet.
10/10 recommend! 🍷“

“Loma Brewing was an awesome place to have our party. Their food was delicious, the space was fabulous and the staff were incredible. They were so easy to work with and made the planning and day of so easeful. I felt so supported. I highly recommend them for events and also just a night out!

Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie options“

“What an amazing place. I was visiting from the UK and was lucky enough to visit here.

I really enjoyed the drive up. It's a windy road but beautiful driving through the hills up to the winery.

Great wine, fantastic service, good prices, beautiful views and all within a short drive of Los Gatos. One of the highlights of our trip to the area.

I'll be back on my next visit.“

“We had excellent service for our large party of 10. Our server, Westin, was wonderful. We were there to celebrate my daughter’s big 30! We all had a wonderful time, food was exceptional and so was the service.“

“Good wine, beautiful scenery and a very nice owner and staff“

“The food never disappoints. We shared the fritto misto and gem Caesar salad with whole anchovies. If there's a grilled octopus on their menu, I always get that while my husband tries something different. He had the pork chop and the piece that I tasted was juicy and sauce flavorful. It's our go to restaurant because we enjoy the food, wait staff and bartenders, and always feel welcome.“

“Had a great time visiting for Fathers Day. Ordered a bunch of food from their small bites menu, a few beers + hard kombucha.

While we waited for our food we played games, and spent time outside in the covered seating. Our 5 and 3 year old were preoccupied with the games, and we had a lot of fun.

Saw a few dogs during our visit, too!“

“Their tortilla soup is the best I’ve had“

“Such a hidden gem tasting room in Los Gatos! Every sip of wine was perfect , from the rosé to the port style dessert wine, that was just the right amount of sweetness, not overwhelming at all. Stories and photos of the winemakers other ventures definitely add to the experience.“

“Great Atmosphere, Good Vibes, EXCELLENT service, TOP Quality Coffee Selections from All parts of the AMERICAS, and different parts of the world all selected by Teri herself. Colombia, Costa Rica, Brazil, Mexico, Hawaii (Kona) and Africa, Ethiopia. Come visit this spot, This is what a coffee shop should look like and feel like.“

“service was great, winery was beautiful👌🏽“

“Lovely service, yummy French offerings. Comfortable patio out back.“

“Three Asian women ran this burger place. They were friendly and smiled all the time and were super fast and efficient in getting the food out. The burgers were juicy and big. The fries were classic fried cooked perfectly. It's your typical classic burger place.“

“Gardino's is my go-to restaurant in downtown Los Gatos. Their pastas are amazing - the meat sauce is delicious and the marinara is equally great. I just had their minestrone (vegetable) for the first time and was so pleasantly impressed - house-made with lots of vegetables and just the right amount of ditalini rigati pasta. I had that as part of the ravioli lunch special. Overall a wonderful place for lunch or dinner.“

“It was perfect for our team offsite. The food was wonderful, the location was beautiful, and the staff was friendly, helpful, thoughtful, and accommodating. Carissa and Janelle were especially wonderful. The team and I are already thinking about what other events we can hold here. 10/10, would do again.“

“I always stop by after Soul Cycle - their seasonal juices are so yummy!“

“We eat here fairly often as we live nearby. Bagels are yummy and lightweight. My only qualm is with the cream cheese. We like to grab a mini tub of jalapeño cream cheese but it’s so disappointing seeing it half full? Would be nice to see this improved moving forward. Also would love to see a non-pork alternative for breakfast sandwiches such as plant based patty or turkey bacon added to the breakfast sandwich options for those of us that don’t eat pork.“

“Byington Thank you for supporting the Lucky Run this past Sunday to benefit Novato High School's Safe & Sober Grad Night. We appreciate you! Safe and Sober Grad of Novato“

“the staff was very friendly . The food was great !!!“

“Good steak 🥩 and pleasant atmosphere.“

“Love the bar and good eats!“

“We’ve been to this places twice for wine tasting in the past but the bistro didn’t open at that time. So we went on Sunday for special Mother’s Day brunch and give it a try. My sister is their member so we can order five different entries from their set menu. We had Shakshuka , Benedict eggs, avocado and salmon with bread , duck fried rice and special charcuterie.
The taste of all dishes are amazing. The duck meat is very well seasoned so it is not gamey at all .Shakshuka tastes like the one we had in Jerusalem.
Nice and friendly service. We can’t wait to come back again for their regular meal.“

“Delicious and yummy yogurt with every imaginable topping! Adorable shop! Family friendly!“

“Such a good and relaxing atmosphere! Everyone is nice!“

“Delicious Food, great customer service“

“Great food at reasonable prices ✅“

“First visit. Had lunch of an Insulate di Tonno and an Arthur Ave panini. Both were excellent. The EVOO on the salad was very good. The bread on the sandwich was perfect, not too big to suffocate the delicate flavors of all the thinly sliced meats inside. We were unfamiliar with the wine list so the server offered us a couple of tastes until we found the perfect match. Can't wait to return and try their dinner menu.“

“We had our Wedding Rehearsal Dinner here and while it was a little more expensive then we wanted it was truly worth it. Their staff were exceptionally courteous and very easy to work with during both the event and the arrangement process. The atmosphere is simply breathtaking there and our dinner in “The Cave” was magnificent both in terms of the food and wine, but the room itself was just so cool to eat dinner in. All of our guests were very impressed with the winery itself, the quality of the food and the service, and everyone had an amazing time, so thank you!“

“Terriable customer service after they gave food that was unedible for my family. please support a restaurant that cares about the food quality and their customers. ( also we used to go all the time, but not anymore)“

“My Sister and I go to Andales all the time Today we went there to celebrate my dads annivesary death. Ricardo the Waiter was great.the food was amazing.“

“I love the burgers and my wife loves the chicken sandwich. The food is verrry good. The only complaint I have is that sometimes I get cold soggy fries which is due to the workers pre making the little bags of fries and they just sit on the service line. If they are fresh, the garlic fries are the way to go with the brown sugar lemonade.“

“loved it. great atmosphere and food. plenty of TV's so I never miss any games. definitely going back.“

“I’ve been coming here for years. I had a blackberry pie latte earlier today. I bought my mom an Italian soda. Great bear coffee has been around since I was a little girl. :-)“

“Our family’s visit to Willow Street Wood‑Fired Pizza was outstanding from start to finish. The thin crust pizzas, especially the pepperoni and margherita, were crisped to perfection with a smoky finish that only a wood‑fired oven can deliver. The garlic bread and Willow Wings were flavorful starters that set the tone for a satisfying meal, while the Grilled Salmon and Arugula salad stood out with tender, well‑seasoned fish and a refreshing citrus vinaigrette. Each dish felt thoughtfully prepared, balancing comfort food with fresh ingredients that elevated the dining experience.

Service was prompt and friendly, and the atmosphere was lively without being overwhelming, making it easy to enjoy conversation even during peak hours. Whether seated indoors or on the patio, the vibe was welcoming and ideal for both casual meals and celebratory outings. Willow Street has become a reliable go‑to for pizza lovers and families alike, offering consistency, warmth, and quality that make it one of downtown Los Gatos’s most dependable dining spots.“
