50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants San Jose

“Mole pablano enchiladas were excellent.“

“Excellent, authentic, very tasty. Ida the owner and chef very attentive.. nice patio seating.. 5 easy stars“

“su aroma , único q ka distingue“

“Our server Andres was an amazing server! He recommended drunk for me which was the Oaxaca mule and it did not disappoint. It was smooth and fruity with a hint of smokeyness. He also recommended the tostada norteña which again was like a lomo saltado but in a Mexican tostada. Everything was amazing! Will come again:)“

“Bò Né Phú Yên is a solid spot for sizzling Vietnamese steak, offering filet mignon, eggs, pâté, and fresh baguettes on a hot iron plate. The rich flavors and tender meat make it a satisfying meal, and the presentation adds to the experience. The food court setting can be noisy, and seating is limited during busy hours, but the quality of the dish makes up for it.

The portion sizes are fairly generous, making it a filling option for breakfast or lunch. However, some visits can be inconsistent, with slight variations in meat tenderness or seasoning. Despite that, the restaurant remains one of the better choices for Vietnamese sizzling steak in the area, especially for those who enjoy bold flavors and interactive dining experiences.“

“What can you say about In N Out burger. Best burgers 🍔 around.“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food, the closest to Guerrero 😍“

“Amazing Thanksgiving dinner thank you so much. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“hela bomb. tacos have good flavor. they don't skimp out on the meat.“

“Best food in town“

“This is one of my family’s favorite restaurants in the world!!! The staff is incredibly friendly and sweet, the food is out of this world, and the presentation is so nice! It has charming outdoor seating and is so cute! We recently moved to this area and were searching for a nice lunch spot when we found this place. The location is a bit hidden, so you won’t see it on the main street, but the food is absolutely amazing. I 100% recommend coming here.“

“Homemade ice cream is so yummy... the best👍👌“

“We had an amazing experience at Fitoor! The Paneer Lababdar was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. For non-vegetarians, the Thecha Chicken was definitely the star — full of flavor and just the right amount of heat.

The Peri Peri Chicken had a nice kick and was super tender, while the Avocado & Paneer Galouti was one of the most unique and delicious appetizers we’ve had — melt-in-your-mouth good! The Paneer Fig Tikka was also a pleasant surprise with its subtle sweetness and smoky flavor.

We ended the meal with Shahi Tukda Tre Leches, which was the perfect fusion dessert — creamy, decadent, and beautifully presented.

Live belly dance performance and DJ was cherry on top.

Highly recommend this place for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike!“

“a comida é extraordinaria e o serviço é 5 estrelas. Adorei os cocktails e o bife à portuesa. Recomendo muito.“

“Escuchaste bien ¡¡¡GRATIS MICHELADAS!!! En el negocio latino de hoy les traigo Pupuseria Delmy en San José. Sus pupusas son unas de las más cercanas que he probado que saben como hechas en casa, las mejores de la ciudad si me preguntas, y las micheladas son gratis de viernes a domingo, ¡siempre y cuando comas allí!“

“pretty decent ramen inside of mitsuwa. we got the medium and it was actually a lot of food. broth was rich and noodles were good but i wish that there were a few more types of toppings on the ramen because it was quite meat heavy with large slabs of pork“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I absolutely love Urban Plates! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The menu offers a fantastic variety of fresh, seasonal ingredients, and every dish I’ve tried has been bursting with flavor. What really sets Urban Plates apart is their commitment to quality. The salads are vibrant and crisp, the proteins are cooked to perfection, and I can always count on their delicious, house-made sauces to elevate each meal. The option to customize my plate allows me to explore new flavors while sticking to my dietary preferences. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready to recommend their favorites. Plus, the commitment to sustainability and using local ingredients makes me feel good about my choices. Whether I’m dining in or grabbing a meal to go, Urban Plates never disappoints. It’s truly one of my favorite spots to enjoy fresh, wholesome food!“

“Wanted to have a nice outdoor lunch here again since we haven't been in a while. We noticed the menu was smaller new menu with photos. We ordered the garlicky green beans which we love, Tom Yum Goong dumplings which were yummy, Xi'an Dumplings vegetable were tasty, Pork Gyoza were very good and unique crispy toppings and shrimp garlic noodles were good but a little too creamy for K.“

“Muy delicioso 😋 me gusta mucho“

“We had an event at work and I ended up trying the churros after getting a whiff of the delicious smell and OMG!! They are so delicious!! Freshly made with a crunchy but soft on the inside!“

“Hobbes is a welcome addition to the DTSJ breakfast scene. Normal sized meals with regular prices except for their coffee. Brewed coffee is $4.55 w/refills. The staff is super nice and the food, made to order, comes quickly. I enjoy having carb side options - rice, grains, potatoes, sweet potatoes or black beans. Another option I like is the mini size of their blended drinks.“

“larga la espera pero valió la pena muy rica la comida“

“come with family and enjoy“

“We love Kadhai Kitchen, authentic india food, best in entire Bay Area. Taste is all that matters, and they remind of maa ke hath ka khana. 👌🏻“

“the lettuce wrap was amazing. super delicious.“

“Great spot for Chinese food in downtown San Jose. I've been to their Fremont location a few times, but I think this location is a bit better since the portions are bigger, and the food is a lot less oily. My personal go-to dish is the beef wrap and mapo tofu, both of which have been fresh, flavourful, and generously portioned everytime I've been here. Staff are polite and service is pretty quick. The restaurant itself is clean and can get pretty crowded during lunchtime. Overall, definitely worth going to this place.“

“delicious food and drinks. breakfast, lunch and dinner, you can't go wrong. handmade Empanadas, classic breakfast and delicious Mexican dishes. yummy!!!!“

“The chocolate vegan cake was delicious! Wouldn’t have guessed it’s vegan. Very light and fluffy. The “fish” sandwich was light and had good flavor, a few more fish pieces would have been good. The smoothie was fresh and creamy and the kumquat drink was goood and not too sweet. I’d come back for sure , it’s a nice cozy spot with seating inside and out. Fresh made vegan food“

“It’s the jewel of the east side the food the beer the atmosphere family owned great place to enjoy ❤️“

“You know this place is on another level when you see the same regular at opening each morning. Generous portions. Food is delicious - pancakes and omelettes are fluffy not dry, one of the best biscuit and gravy (biscuit not too big and starchy, just perfect).“

“Jacks Restaurant and Bar is a great spot for anyone who loves delicious food and exceptional cocktails. The menu offers a delightful variety of dishes, all expertly prepared and packed with flavor. Their cocktails are creative, perfectly balanced, and a true highlight of the experience. Combined with a warm ambiance and attentive service, Jacks delivers an unforgettable dining experience that’s perfect for any occasion.“

“Great food, friendly atmosphere, clean and prompt service.“

“A.M. Craft is what you hope every coffee shop experience will be! The coffee is phenomenal... I compare every other coffee shop to here, and they generally all fall short. Chef and owner, Mike will make drinks to order and hits the mark every time! Pastries are fresh and delicious! Wait times are short, and the shop is cute and friendly. When I stopped in this morning, staff knew the name of every person that walked through the door and greeted them personally, including me. Way to start the day off right!“

“TBH I was hesitant at first to eat at Acopia. As a vegan, most Mexican restaurants do not usually have options for me. Their menu is somewhat minimal and limited, so entered with few expectations or hopes that I could order anything more than a salad. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The owner came to our table and was most accommodating. I ordered a succulent nopales salad, street corn and some delicious blue corn sopes de calabasita (zucchini and flower). It was all quite tasty and I was even more surprised when she brought out some vegan mayo AND vegan cheese to top off my food with more flavor. The atmosphere is very modern and simply styled, mirroring their “chic” food menu. I found the food delicious though a bit on the bland side, but was grateful that they came through for me and my vegan diet. I left sated and happy that I could fully participate in the meal alongside my meat-eating friends. The owner was very thoughtful and really went out of her way to make sure I had plenty of choices to order. Although it was a bit pricey, I will definitely go back again. The modern ambiance, the attentive service and the fancy yet rustic food combined to make a lovely evening meal.“

“Giving thanks for Cali Pizza. The paneer-pesto pizza is still my favorite—fresh, balanced, and perfectly crisp with paneer cooked just right.

In a time when so much has gone up 30%+, they’ve kept prices steady and quality high. No shortcuts, no smaller slices—just real ingredients and kind people. It’s the kind of integrity that reminds you what a local business can be.

Thank you for taking care of the community. Happy Thanksgiving, and keep doing what you do.

“Stevie's Bar & Grill in San Jose isn't just a bar, it's a sanctuary for the soul and a paradise for beer enthusiasts. Each time I return to San Jose, Stevie's is my go-to spot, a reliable haven where the beer flows as freely as the good times. With a draft beer selection that's second to none, Stevie's is like a grand library of brews, each one a story waiting to be savored. The attentive staff elevates the experience, making sure your glass is never empty and your spirits are always high. The vibe here is electric yet welcoming, a perfect backdrop for the delectable snackable treats they serve. And if you're in a crunch for time, the adjacent laundromat turns a chore into a chance for relaxation – sip and savor while you spin and rinse! Stevie's is more than a bar; it's a clever twist on the traditional, a gem that makes San Jose shine a little brighter.“

“One of many Hawaiian BBQ spots I've been tok and it is really solid.

Nothing was bad and pretty much everything was a bit above average compared to other similar spots. Spam musubi was a little salty however.

Pricing is a tad higher then other Hawaiian BBQ spots though.“

“Just love the berry pies. Goes just perfect with my morning coffee and dinner meals. Just love the blueberry pie with the delicious crust. If The Giving Pies keep makin’em I’ll keep eat’em.🥰“

“Greeted warmly as i entered and met a friendly smile at the register. It was my 1st time at this location, Almaden, and very surprised by the great variety of offerings. I went with the portobello mushroom panini and tomato bisque soup. YUM YUM delicious 😋 Looking forward to coming back with my squad and trying different items. Come check this!“

“Went in at 1:15pm on a Sunday and father'a day. No problems parking in free street parking (on other days there's metered parking i believe)

Food was lovely, i ordered a halo-halo and in particular added extra toppings with the pandan mochi which was really delicious.

Service was great numbers were quickly called out when orders werw ready and you can easily see staff work on each order.

Atmosphere was great, excellent for both adults and kids alike withr he colorful offerings. Though note that there is almost no space to eat inside so expect to each outside.“

“Just by luck we found Palermo Italian restaurant. Food was really good. Super nice people made our experience even better. Best Birthday candle ever 😀

There’s a small parking lot across the street - don’t worry about traffic, they have a crosswalk person that stops traffic.“

“Awesome atmosphere!! Amazing employees!!“

“Ham, Egg, and Tomato-Basil Cream Cheese on a Jalapeño Cheese bagel...without question, the best bagel breakfast sandwich I've ever had in my life. Highly recommend, and based on the 10+ person line at 6:55am on a Sunday before they opened at 7am, others agree.“

“Great food would definitely go again“

“The best in the whole world. Try it.“
