50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Rancho Santa Fe

“This resort is truly a majestic and tranquil haven that offers a cozy atmosphere. I had a wonderful time during my stay, and I find myself eagerly anticipating my next visit!“

“While Mille Fleur's normal menu is great, Easter brunch was outstanding! The three courses had so many options that it was difficult to choose. Sitting in the tree-shaded patio makes you feel as though you're in the south of France.“

“My husband and I love INVITA!!! Don’t miss the avocado toast! It is absolutely delicious! Toasted sourdough bread covered with avocado, salted tomato, drizzled with olive oil and fresh cracked red pepper! The green ice tea is refreshingly good. Thank you for being open! Please support this local business! Super friendly staff.“

“One of our special date night places when in the San Diego area. Outdoor seating is great and food is wonderful. Rancho Santa Fe in the evening is quiet and you can just have a nice conversation over dinner.“

“super friendly and the coffee was great“

“Ambiance, service, exceptional food (Dover sole, branzino) - simply elegant“

“Amazing STAFF and food. The General manager was super engaging and grit, staff was attentive even under busy and stressful situations- it’s obvious they have a positive working model. Nice work!“

“I like Caffe Positano - coffee is good and convenient. They should get a microwave so croissants and muffins can be warmed up. It would improve the food experience immensely“

“Our first time at the Pony Room, for my birthday. I googled it and saw all the great reviews,. so we decided to check it out with friends. So glad we did! What a hidden gem for these foodies. Great variety on the menu for everyone and large portions that are very shareable. I had the Hamachi Crudo, two of my dining partners had the burger, which was amazing but splittable, another diner had the lamb popsicles, he said they were wonderful, but needed a little more spice. We all shared the pear salad, I loved the lavender dresssing. We also had the focaccia, so good! Our Italian friend said it was good but should just be called bread as it's not traditional focaccia. I loved it, but I tend to agree as my family also owns a traditional Italian restaurant. We shared teo bottles of wine, which are a very good value according to my ex-Somm husband. We will absolutely be back, and bring our friends. Stewart, our server was exceptional and made the experience even more awesome. I gave ambience four stars because although the entire place was absolutely beautiful, the bar, the entry courtyard and the outdoor patio we could see from our table, our actual table was in a corner of the plastic lined patio, which took away from the total ambience for me and felt a bit claustrophobic . I'm sure as soon as it warms up they will take the plastic away, but for me, next time I would request to sit inside the bar area or somewhere more open. Overall a wonderful find, you'll see us again soon!“

“Been wanting to try this place for a while and so glad we made the time to go!

We added our name to the waitlist online when we woke up so we can leisurely get ready and walk our pups. By then, our table was ready!

The food was fantastic. We loved everything that we ordered. Amazing service and a great tiny kitchen with fresh seasonal produce.“

“Awesome spot!! Good beer and good sandwich’s“

“10/10 food is tasty and service is friendly“

“Love Broad st Dough. Many varieties of donuts all made to order.“

“Hey I just want to say the Luna grill down in Carmel valley was amazing and I want to give a special thank you to Athena for helping me out with my order she was polite and made sure i got everything I needed I recommend anyone that loves Mediterranean food check out this location 2 thumbs up will be back“

“I love the coffee here!! 🤤“

“excelente servicio y súper ricos los platillos“

“Caffe Caffe is a fantastic spot that truly exceeded my expectations! I had the pleasure of trying their latte macchiato and cortado, both of which were superbly crafted—rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor.

The pastries were the real highlight of my visit. The beef burek was delicious, with a perfect balance of flaky pastry and savory filling. The crème brûlée croissant was hands down the best pastry I’ve ever had—flaky, decadent, and filled with rich custard that was simply divine.

The café itself is beautifully designed, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that’s perfect for enjoying a leisurely coffee or catching up with friends. The service was excellent, with friendly staff who were attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. I can’t wait to return to indulge in more of their offerings!“

“What a great experience.. great beer and an awesome place.. for sure will be backs and will bring friends with me.. cheers 🍻“

“This used to be The Americana. Harry’s is better. We shard a Belgium waffle, bacon, hash browns & cinnamon roll. All but the hash browns were great. Hashbrowns were greasy but would have been good if they weren’t.

Service was very good. We will go back.“

“Best korean in New Hampshire! authentic korean. this is not korean bbq, though they do have kalbi. my favorite is soondubu soup, stone pot bibimbap, and japchae. I get it without egg and no meat. i enjoy dining in for the stone pot that crisps the rice, but also enjoy take out. everything is wrapped up good and safe. my family manages a severe nut allergy and eat here safely weekly.“

“Awesome place!
They start out by letting you sample each of the gelatos.
And then traditionally you pick two to go in your chosen cup size.
The server was friendly and helpful and made great recommendations.
It was delicious gelato!“

“The very best Indian food I have ever eaten in all of San Diego county.“

“100 stars- Chelsey was amazing and walked us through the cocktail menu and the Bruschetta Boards! We ate and drank with her suggestions and will definitely be back! Kudos!“

“Excellent pistachio gelato!“

“We hired Criscito Pizza for our engagement party, which hosted around 65 guests, and it was a fantastic choice! The team provided a wonderful selection of pizzas, each one warm, fresh, and delicious. Our guests loved the variety, and there was something for every taste. They went above and beyond with the setup, providing all the necessary flatware, plates, and a beautiful table arrangement that made everything look organized and inviting. Their service was seamless and added so much to our celebration. Highly recommend them for any event!“

“We live to combine a home at Annie's canyon down the street with a visit to Claire's before or after.

I joined the wait-list on Google maps as I was driving there. Checked into the hostess stand after I was able to score the last spot in their small parking lot behind the restaurant. There is plenty of parking across the street.

Service was good and we were there at noon for lunch. It was busy but there were still plenty of empty tables out on their back patio. We had a little wait for our food orders and they came out at different times.
We ordered the salmon and peach salad and the veggie sandwich. The salad was very fresh and delicious. The veggie sandwich wasn't a hit so we don't recommend that dish. High stack of fresh vegetables but tasteless.“

“Spent several enjoyable hours at New English Brewery this afternoon. Actually, came here because of wanting to try out “The Craft Taco Truck.” They didn’t disappoint! The guys were friendly, the food was great! Visually appealing and delicious. Highly recommend you seek them out and enjoy an afternoon with them! We’ll definitely be back.“

“Very clean and inviting ambience. Food flavor is spot on. The savory and refreshing pho broth. The smokey grilled pork with broken rice. I'm a fan! Very reasonably priced. Wonderful customer service. Oh, and definitely try the Thai Tea and Vietnamese Coffee!!“

“The chicken kabob is amazing!“

“Never had the food here
But the teas here are amazing. Whenever we are at Mira Mesa, I stop by just to get the teas. Husband loves the hot taro

Parking: Big shopping center

Wheelchair accessibility: There's areas where wheelchairs can come to the walk way“

“Liked our burgers and beers. We got the 8oz so we could try different beers. Wasn’t a fan of the sours though. Fun atmosphere. There were families with little ones, people with pets, people of all ages. Will be back.“

“Happy hour is bomb. $1.50 oysters, $6 shrimp tempura,“

“My husband and I came here once and it’s now our favorite place to come eat! A woman Trudy who works there is an absolute super star! She is always going above and beyond to make the experience even better, the food is a plus ? don’t miss out on the grandmas Mac and cheese. It’s the best I’ve ever had!“

“This location is in a really beautiful spot, in an outdoor shopping mall. It’s very nice and we loved the fire pits right outside the shop!

I’m very appreciative that they handle allergies well and our willing to scoop from an unopened container, switch gloves and scoop and do it in front of me.“

“best chicken fried steak and gravy this side of El Paso“

“Great selection of cider for all palates. Delightful drinks gotta try em all. They have flights as well. Good date spot and for groups with games and a pretty sick Dart board. Local pizza spot has a deal to deliver pizza 🍕🍻. You definitely won't miss beer here“

“I had an absolutely delicious iced matcha latte at Blue Mug yesterday. The matcha flavor was superb and it was perfect for the heat wave. The bathroom was clean, and the staff was friendly. It was very nice inside and a great place to grab coffee, a pastry, or a sandwich. I cannot wait to go back.“

“I recently had a fundraising event and Sunny Side was such a great choice for catering. After I sent an email, I got a call back and we walked through the order and right sized it. The guests really enjoyed an artichoke quiche, strawberry chicken salad and three types of mini cookies. Everyone raved about the food. It was all packaged up to be easy to serve. I would highly recommend working with Sunny Side on your next catering need!“

“I was just looking for a place to drink sour beer. That's all. You can imagine my utter joy when I discovered this place not only has FIVE sours on draft but also a menu that is more than 50% vegan. I tried all of the sours. The standout for me was the blueberry muffin, which tastes exactly as described. At the recommendation of the bartender, I got the crunch wrap, which was absolutely delicious. I also made a friend with the woman sitting next to me and got to try the pretzel with queso and mustard (also completely vegan), and that was phenomenal. If I lived in the area, this would definitely be a regular hangout spot.“

“This coffee is the best! Hands down! Forget Starbucks! And support local!“

“Exceptional beers! With a wide variety of styles. Their west coast IPA and saison are my favorite. The staffs are very friendly. Stepped in 30 mins before the closing time but still got great service. Highly recommend!“

“I am obsessed with Juneshine! I love the hard kombucha but I’m an even bigger fan of the canned cocktails. I live in Oregon and recently visited the tasting room while in San Diego- it’s beautiful and a fun vibe with great people! Definitely recommend, especially if you’re into kombucha! If kombucha isn’t your thing, pick up a case of their canned cocktails at the liquor or grocery store - you won’t be disappointed! Really clean ingredients and they are so good!“

“Good and fast service. Food was very good.“

“The best specialty coffee roaster in San Diego! You can tell they have great relationships with their farmers and care about their products. Coffee always tastes great in the shop and when I bring bags of beans home. I’m always taking friends here to try some good coffee. 😊“

“In town for one night. Spent the evening walking between three breweries and a meadery. If I lived here, this is the one that would be my local watering hole. Absolutely beautiful bartender, friendly atmosphere, great music, and a story behind the label and taprooms that can't be beat.“

“Kudos to Gerardo, He was always very attentive & making sure we had a wonderful experience. Super Friendly Staff. Overall Amazing Service.“

“cheese enchiladas to go were very good! Food ready in minutes! good job!“

“Always great coffee and the empanadas are great 🔥🔥“

“This was our first time eating Peruvian The food was tasty, fresh and great portions.“

“Great service too! My mouth watered the entire time and was completely satiated and beyond happy with all that we ate! New menu apparently, but I gotta get back before they change it again!“
