50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Paso Robles

“Beautiful wine in a rustic welcoming setting. This is a must see💕“

“We have a marvelous meal, everyone enjoyed!!“

“We had a truly memorable anniversary dinner at The Restaurant at Justin. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The food was exquisite—highlights included the halibut crudo, lamb, pasta, and a series of creative and delicious amuse-bouche selections. The kitchen was also incredibly thoughtful and accommodating of our dietary needs.Dessert was equally impressive, providing a perfect finale. What truly elevated the evening, though, was the wine pairing—easily the best I’ve ever experienced. Each selection was thoughtfully chosen and complemented the dishes with precision and elegance.The service was just as outstanding as the food. The servers were warm, attentive, and deeply knowledgeable. They introduced each course with care, explained the ingredients and preparation beautifully, and ensured perfect timing throughout the meal. Their genuine hospitality made us feel truly welcomed.

Chef Rachel’s artistry with fresh ingredients shone through in every dish, and truly justifies the Michelin star. The harmony of flavors and presentation reflected a high level of craft and creativity. A phenomenal experience from beginning to end—highly recommended, and can not wait to go back!“

“Food was decent, but the value for breakfast is not good. Coffee is SEVEN dollars, a bottle of beer here is 6 for comparison. Only 1 piece of toast with my omelet? The place was ok, but I felt like I was being nickled and dimed. I was able to walk down the street and get Amazing coffee for $3“

“Every time we visit Justin Winery, downtown, Jose goes above and beyond to make our experience truly meaningful. He is delightful. From the moment we arrive, he treats us like royalty, always greeting us with the warmest smile and genuine hospitality. Jose has an incredible way of making you feel welcomed and valued. He takes the time softly to explain each wine, sharing the details behind every pour,, which makes tasting experience so much more meaningful and enjoyable.“

“The Rhône LIVES in Tin City!
Always on the lookout for new grape friends & especially in Paso. The Levo folks have been on our radar for over a year & we FINALLY got the chance to do a proper sit-down midweek tasting last week. 100% across the board! Very chill & inviting location, thoroughly cool & approachable staff & EPIC wines! Don’t think I’ve signed up as a wine club member faster than with Levo & left with over a case of their goodies. Oh yeah, concrete “Egg” they use, straight outta the Terra Alta or Lyon!“

“🙂Knowledgeable friendly staff“

“National selection of vegan cheeses plus local!“

“Small vineyard that produces delicious wines. The owner, Steve, came through and spent a good deal of time with us. We opted for the outdoor terrace which has beautiful views of the vines and the surrounding area. Our server, Michael, did a great job of explaining each wine including where the grapes were grown, percentages of the various varietals, and type of barreling. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and we will be back again.“

“PPK is a high quality pizza restaurant in the heart of Paso Robles. Their menu has a lot of nice varieties of pizza ingredients as well as similar foods like sandwiches and calzones, and their atmosphere is clean and pleasant. Reasonable prices, too. It’s clearly a popular local place, because even on a Sunday late afternoon its tables are filled with satisfied patrons. The pizzas came out delicious, and I will definitely be returning.

The only downside is that the pizza is so good that you’ll probably end up eating your leftovers before even leaving the restaurant.“

“We had a wonderful experience at Willow Creek Wine Co. last weekend! Their wines are fantastic, we truly enjoyed everything we tasted! The experience itself was incredible…greeted by the winemakers/owners was such a treat having them spend time chatting and sharing their passion! Then Berkeley created such a memorable experience, shared a delicious perfectly paired plate to go with our tasting and walked us through each of the wines. We of course joined their club and can’t wait to return to visit. Thank you for such a personal, welcoming visit and for sharing your incredible wines! Cheers!“

“Food was great! Soul food is deluxe, try it all. My friend said best chili he ever had. Generous portions, crispy not greasy, wonderful customer service, thanks Dubs!“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Union Sacre Winery, and I can’t say enough about the wonderful experience I had! From the moment I arrived, the customer service was outstanding. The staff welcomed us and made us feel right at home. They took the time to get to know us, sharing their passion for wine and guiding me through their tasting selections with great care. We loved hearing about their unique story and their journey in the wine industry.

As for the wine, we loved each one! We were impressed by their unique wines, which showcased the winemaker's creativity and attention to detail. You can truly taste the love and craftsmanship in every bottle!

The atmosphere was equally inviting. We enjoyed sipping wine on the patio, surrounded by beautiful views, which made the experience even more memorable.

Overall, Union Sacre Winery not only offers exceptional wines but also an unforgettable experience thanks to their incredible customer service. I left feeling inspired and can’t wait to return for another visit!“

“Enchanting, spacious, and whimsical grounds to enjoy their delicious wines. If you’re looking for a kid-friendly area winery, this is the one! Lots of room for playing, plenty of other kids, and they even have some games. Live music is a nice touch.“

“muy buen servicio y muy rica la comida“

“We had a lovely stay at the Vineyard Farmhouse. It was very comfortable. The setting was very serene and the views of the vineyard and rolling hills were amazing. Our host was easy to reach and answered any questions we had very quickly. We highly recommend doing a wine tasting at the Pelletiere tasting room which is mere steps from the farmhouse. The wines were so wonderful we bought 6 bottles!“

“An umami pairing experience with LXV Wine and Bakersfield’s Noodle Bar. LXV owners and the chef from Noodle Bar matched the wines and meals perfectly👌🏼Pairings with LXV Wine is a must do experience!“

“My wife and went to Volatus based on reviews and we are adding 5 star. Daniel our wine guide was fantastic. Great knowledge of wines and the Paso Robles area. We went on a Wednesday so we had the tasting room to ourselves. The red wines were full bodied and are drinking very well now, and will age nicely. Daniel explained we are in a slow period ( just a few days) as the wine festival had just passed and we are entering Memorial day weekend. The vibe and energy was excellent. Cheers to the owner and all he does.“

“This winery is amazing! I called a week in advance for the Jeep Tour and Bryan was so patient while I tried to plan everything out with him. We got there an hour before our appointment and they allowed us to start with the wine tasting. All of the staff were so incredibly kind!
I highly recommend taking the Jeep Tour with Bryan. For us, it was 4 adults and a dog in the Jeep and it was such a nice time! Bryan made additional stops and answered everything we were curious about. His sense of humor was great.
When the tour was over we decided to go back to the outdoor tasting area. Leslie was so sweet! She’s very knowledgeable and a great person to talk to :) she even brought a bowl of water and a toy for my puppy to play with. She said people are more than welcome to bring their own food or have it delivered to the winery to enjoy with their wine. I wish we had done that! It’s definitely a place I would go anytime I’m in the area.“

“CaliPaso is one of my favorite places in Paso Robles. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, mildly exciting with sports generally on the large screen TV and a super friendly staff. Their wines are wonderful and reasonably priced. It’s just a nice place to spend time with friends old and new.“

“Great view, lots of wine options, and great staff. Thank you Cassie for answering our questions, and making our wine tasting experience fun!“

“Wonderful place, been there when a band was playing and the place was busy, and was there on a quite Wednesday afternoon and Erika made me feel right at home. Motorcycle friendly park back buy the bathrooms for solid ground to put your kickstand on,“

“Great wine, people & entertainment 😊🍷“

“We loved this place!! Beautiful view and amazing wines. We joined the club and are excited to return. A must while in Paso Robles“

“I'm obsessed! The wine, service, and grounds are nothing short of outstanding. Ascunsion Ridge is a small operation run by beautiful, honest people that love what they do. Each wine I sampled was complex and beautifully balanced. Everything was beyond my expectations and I loved my time here so much I couldn't help but sign up for a membership. I can't wait to come back!“

“The service is exceptional along with their wines selection“

“We stayed there through harvest host on Saturday night. We were greeted promptly and they showed us where to park our RV. Wine was great and tastings were reasonable priced. Lots of parking and lots of tables. Some seating inside and out. They often have entertainment and we got lucky they did the night we were there They had a kids movie night inside the open air tasting room and parents could hang out and taste wine. We especially loved the Zinfandel and the other blends. The rose was good too.“

“Our visit to Alta Colina was one of the highlights of our trip. It’s a smaller, more intimate winery with a truly beautiful setting—and that made the experience feel personal and special right from the start.

We were warmly welcomed by Maggie, who was absolutely wonderful. Her hospitality, warmth, and the way she made us feel like family really stood out. There was also another team member assisting us whose name I didn’t catch, but she was equally kind and attentive. As someone who works in the hospitality industry, I deeply value that kind of genuine connection and care.

We also loved that Alta Colina feels a bit off the beaten path—it’s not overly commercial, and you can tell the focus is on quality wine, authentic experiences, and supporting something truly local. The wines were excellent, and the whole experience left us feeling inspired and grateful.

Thank you to Maggie and the entire team at Alta Colina—we’ll definitely be back, and telling friends about this gem.“

“Great staff and atmosphere! The wines were incredible. Especially the Zinfandel! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! 🥳🥳“

“We just had Dinner after not going for a long time and we had the pizza and the bacon bleu burger but the best thing was Tyler he was an excellent waiter server. The dinner was great the atmosphere was great it was a good idea to go there much better than the first time when they first opened highly recommend you go back if you didn’t like it the first time. Thanks Tyler you were the best!!!“

“Awesome location, beers, food and staff!“

“My spouse and I visited Calcareous in mid-March for a Cabernet tasting that was out of this world. We tasted a variety of wines from different vintages that were all outstanding. Each was beautifully made and are a great value for their price point. Our host, Nate, explained the wine characteristics, production details, and winery history. He expertly answered endless questions about the local wine community and other wine trivia. The whole experience was just great.“

“It’s one of the best wine bars in San Luis Obispo county offering a wide array of domestic and international wines by the bottle or by the glass. I find the prices to be competitive and the bartenders very knowledgeable with their craft. I highly recommend this lace to anyone who wants to sample local Paso Robles and international wines. Don’t take my word for it, come and visit soon.“

“Incredible wine and beautiful winery!“

“If you're a wine enthusiast looking for something truly special, Diablo Paso is a must-try. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! Be sure to ask for Deb when you visit the tasting room. She’s incredibly friendly and can provide expert guidance on the wine selection.“

“I had the blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and butter. Three big pancakes, well made and full of blueberries. Very tasty and a good portion.

My girlfriend had an omelette with the avocado, which also went down really well. The coffee was good too although it would have been nicer to have fresh milk to add to it rather than the small packs of half & half.

Staff were friendly and attentive and made for a pleasant visit.

Loads of seating available both indoors and outside. We sat outside which even though it's on the road didn't really feel like it because there wasn't much traffic.“

“Great tasting experience with Stan. Exotic wines and incredible ports.“

“What’s not to love about Fratelli Perata? As soon as you drive up, you are transported to Italy, gazing upon miles of rolling hills of vineyards as you get out of your car. Walking in, classic Italian music plays softly as one of the Perata family members greets you. The tasting menu is unique for Paso, focusing mainly on Italian varietals - and what lovely expressions they are. You’ll learn about the Perata family history while sipping on yummy Barbera and Sangiovese. You’ll want (at least) one of every bottle before you leave, guaranteed. We can’t wait to come back!“

“Superb wine! Incredible white and red wine!“

“My girlfriends and I spent the most delightful tasting at Tablas Creek with our host Heidi. The wine was wonderful- but the service was exceptional. She was fun, knowledgeable, and made the experience absolutely delightful. We can’t wait to come back!“

“We had the full belly breakfast sandwich and it was amazing. The deli is super clean and all of the staff are friendly and very accommodating. The owner Heidi was also working so that was a huge bonus. We will definitely be eating there again.“

“Not Just a Bar, A Place That Held Me

I walked in just before closing. First night in a new city, with a 3 a.m. bus to catch and nowhere to wait. I wasn’t looking for a drink, just somewhere to rest for a while.

This bar welcomed me anyway. No questions, no rush. Just great music, good people, and a soft kind of energy that made everything feel okay.

It wasn’t loud or flashy, it was warm. It felt safe. In a city I didn’t know, it gave me something simple but rare: a place to stay when I needed one, and a night that turned into a memory.

Not every bar leaves a mark. This one did.
One day, I’ll tell someone about the time I waited for a 3 a.m. bus, and how a bar made me feel at home for a few quiet hours.

Only one regret: I should’ve got the T-shirt that said, “It’s not a city. It’s a vibe.” It is, indeed!

Definitely the best bar in town.🫶🏻“

“Katie was awesome. The hostess with the mostess. 🍷 🍺 🥃“

“We had a great time here last weekend and our host, Leslie was amazing and very friendly. We tried both types of tastings and while everything was tasty, our favorites were the bourbon and the barrel aged vodka.

We just enjoyed our bourbon bottle this weekend and look forward to going back to grab a couple more.

Thank you for the fun experience!“

“It’s one of the best wine bars in San Luis Obispo county offering a wide array of domestic and international wines by the bottle or by the glass.

“Cannot say enough wonderful things about this winery. The tour of their property shows the pride they have plus you learn how Kit and group focus on sustainability and working with Mother Nature to bring us the best wine possible. The wine room feels like on top of the world overlooking Paso from its hill location. We enjoyed their vino so much, we shipped home a case. We look forward to making our way to Paso to experience one of their hilltop events.“

“what a great experience. They allow dogs, super friendly staff and great beer. We had such a grand time. If you’re in the area, Go!“

“Came to Paso for a girls weekend and did a tasting at Nicora. The wine was excellent. Sarah was the host for our tasting and she was terrific. She was very knowledgeable and shared great stories about the winery. She also gave us recommendations for restaurants and other spots to visit during our stay. I’d highly recommend checking it out.“

“My wife and I had a great Sunday afternoon at the Robert Hall Winery. So many great wines that are different than what you might get at
your favorite restaurant. Are server Kelly was great. I really loved the Grenache. The wine maker Amanda is crushing it. So many great wineries in Paso but this should be on your list.

Cheers“

“Off the beaten track but so so worth it! Gorgeous outdoor setting and cozy indoor space are both comfortable. Large variety of wines including unique varietals and blends and all are lovingly crafted and delicious. The cheese tray is not-to-be-missed. I haven't had a chance to try the wood fired pizzas, but can't wait to go back. My hosts were Kate and Cindy and they were both knowledgeable and friendly. Came in as a customer, left as a friend. If you have a hard time deciding which wine is your favorite, as I did, I suggest joining the wine club.“
