45 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants San Leandro

“Good stuff, love nondairy options!“

“Been going to Porky's Pizza since the late 60's“

“wide open atmosphere, excellent food and great service. Found the beer to be of high quality. Build a flight and you will love it!“

“If you crave an old fashion burger complete with iceberg lettuce this place is for you. Today was my first time there and I went with the cheeseburger, fries and a chocolate shake. The burger was good. Not great but honest. Gave it 7.5. The crinkled fries were mid. Pretty sure they were frozen. I didn't eat em all. Needed salt. The shake was decent and you get a large. Right there i knew it wouldn't be the best shake. For 20 bucks plus tip it was ok. I don't think i got their best. Next time I'm trying the teriyaki burger and chicken. It's a small, side of the road joint that's so close to being incredible.“

“Friendly place with great coffee and breakfast snacks. Bonus they welcome dogs there 💙🐶“

“Great staff & wonderful Bangers n mash.“

“Good food, lively atmosphere.“

“Everything about this location I can safely say is so fulfilling. The hand pulled and cut noodles and thicknesses to your liking are simply beyond compare. The broth, the lovely meat that comes in the broth. Just about everything that you could want in a location to enjoy Dao has without question. I was lucky enough to visit this location with my brother and his wife. We were thoroughly impressed and completely blown away by everything, including the truffle and shrimp dumplings along with everything, including the green beans every other side dish that you could possibly want. I am so very excited to try the beef roll because that is one of my particular favorites. When frequenting certain dumpling houses or places with hand pulled noodles. I can certainly say that I will be back here many times over. I cannot believe that this location is open late to help serve people like myself. Definitely a night owl. I simply enjoy the fact that this location by so many different San Leandro institutions can certainly become another one and I cannot wait to get back and have myself a bowl of noodles. I also cannot wait to try the variety of dumplings that I have missed so far. Given that week and only order so much at each instance, I can safely say that this location is just some of the finest that you could hope for and enjoy with family and I certainly hope that you do the same at your next opportunity.“

“Excellent place to get breakfast or sandwich and a coffee. Small, efficient, friendly, delicious, and well priced! As of December 2023 a sausage egg and cheese croissant is still just $5.45, when donut shops are charging up to $7/8 for the same thing.“

“Todo muy bueno!! Muy limpio Servicio excelente!!“

“where are you located at“

“We loved this place. it was very cute, lots of options to choose from, and very lovely staff! they were very patient accommodating our huge group and all our requests. Definitely coming back!“

“Hands down the best local pizza spot in town. The owner, Jay, is super personable and puts a lot of soul into his craft. All his ingredients are fresh, never frozen, and of course -- delicious. If you can't quite commit to a whole pizza, he sells them by the slices too! Red Apple Kitchen is a must try! Already can't wait to go back this for lunch this week :)“

“Menu selections are varied and excellent. The minestrone is a very good specialty. Portions are generous. Steaks are excellent and generous in portion size. Breakfast and egg dishes are always consistent. Service is cheerful. Salads are great especially with an Elio’s Greek style dressing..“

“Came here with my family and the food is absolutely amazing. Very authentic and amazing salsa. If the salsa is good you know the food Is good. The staff are very attentive and make sure your set while you enjoy your food. Best little family restaurant in the area!!“

“My old pal Limney Gilbert got kicked in the mouth by one of Bucktoothed Mary's horses a month ago, and he's had his mouth wired shut since then. This morning they cut the wires! He asked me to bring him a ham sandwich and chips from the Joaquin Deli because he's been drinking all his meals from a straw, and he's ready to chew! It's my first time at the Joaquin Deli and I'll tell you what...it's clean, the ingredients are fresh as can be and the prices are right where they should be! The workers put the customers first, and not because the boss told them too, they do it as if they owned the place! Very refreshing in today's world! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“The cashier was so nice! I was waiting for my order and the customer made her order and found out that she forgot her money at home. The lady who was at the register said you can get your order and pay later . I think she was the owner.“

“We went to two locations this weekend visiting from Portland & both were great! I have to rave about the service at the Barrel Room! On our way to the airport we made one last pit stop & the bartenders were AWESOME. Beer was fresh & delish. Building is dope. Lotsa kids really isn’t our thing but it’s so spacious you have plenty of room to vibe. Accidentally knocked my beer off the table & was rewarded for my bad behavior with a fresh brew on the house because accidents happen! So good. ? Will be back.“

“Dropped in for some pho and really enjoyed the meal. The service was really great and friendly. Pho- quite delicious. I liked the quality of the goods, the mint and thai basil leaves were very impressive, so fresh and HUGE and tasted great. This place also served their bowls with limes which is funny because I've seen it becoming rarer, where lemons are being substituted and I'm the former so I appreciated that. The cuts of meat were these nice long strips, high quality.

I also got a banh xeo and that things was awesome. Whoever cooked it did so perfectly... nice crunch on the rim, juicy interior. The batter has coconut milk, so each bite is so flavorful. This was my favorite dish. Again, high quality meats and veggies, and huge! Good stuff. Also their coffee has a great condescended milk to coffee ratio, super sweet and rich yum“

“8-Twelve is a true neighborhood gem. It is the kind of place where kids can grab a snack and a fun drink for a reasonable price, and then just relax after school. Even though it is not as close to the middle or high school as some of the other hangouts, it has become one of our favorites.

I appreciate that it has lasted the test of time and I hope it continues to thrive. One of the best parts is that they offer non-caffeinated tea drinks for the kids, which is rare and so thoughtful.

8-Twelve has that welcoming vibe that makes it feel like part of the community.“

“This is our go-to for breakfast. Good ingredients that are fresh (who sources their eggs??? They’re always so good!), good cooking, and that classic diner experience. We look forward to slow weekends and days off when we can go in and grab breakfast. It’s the kind of place you go to for five or six years before realizing you’ve been going for years.“

“Zenti Bistro is a hidden gem in San Leandro and it deserves to be unhidden! Tina, the co owner has been God sent to me. I was looking for a venue for my post wedding party, with ample parking and close to my friends. She put my vision into life! This place is very intimate, definitely made for 50 guests.
Tina has been very responsive, kind and passionate about what she does. I love how she gives back to the community and making us feel like home. I definitely would book again for a future event. I cant thank you enough Tina for making this experience stress free and enjoyable! Thank you to Ernie and staff for the delicious food! Thank you to Dom for helping prepare the space for my guests. Please go check out Zenti Bistro!“

“Great food, friendly service!!“

“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!“

“good soup, portion and taste“

“This place is as classic as it gets, they focus on the basics but have perfected it. Every time I've gone, the service is super friendly and attentive, and the food is exactly what you're craving. Prices are also super reasonable for the portion sizes. This is one of my favorite places and plan on going back regularly.“

“Cute bagel shop! Happened to be in the area and stopped here. We were greeted by welcoming and friendly staff and surprised by the assortment of bagels (they even have a blueberry cinnamon crunch!). I’d been craving toast so they happily crafted an off the menu breakfast sandwich for me while my daughter had nova lox on poppyseed. Both hit the spot! They’re expanding their back deck too! Tables have fresh flowers and thriving succulents. Great way to start the day!“

“The best bahn mi I've had in as long as I can remember! I ordered one with tofu and an order of the Buddha rolls, and both were delicious. There were so many different flavors in the bahn mi and the Buddha roll. The bread was fluffy and crispy on the outside without cutting the roof of your mouth.

Highly recommend!“

“food was mid in a way that is comforting. i'm a big big fan.

fried mushrooms are perfect little buttons of joy! zucchini sticks fried so crisp i forgot they ever used to be vegetables. enough fresh hot home fries to feed a family.

fish burger just SO perfectly alright, with a nice honey mustard. tuna melt crispy and kinda sweet relishy. pastrami wasn't as smoky as i like it, though.“

“A unique experience, the attention and services are special. It is a family and status place, there is a variety of prices and dishes. I recommend visiting on Sundays at buffet times, in summary of my favorite places 100% recommended 👍🏼 Foods are made with passion 🤤“

“Just went on Wednesday as I was passing through. I didn’t realize that they were open do to the farmers market being right there as well. Went inside and it was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered the shrimp po boy and it was very good. I will definitely be back.“

“I have been a Bay Area native forever and let me just say find GOOD pizza is a task within itself . This place is a gem I must say the pizza is really really good. I always see people coming and going and it’s usually busy , I stopped by today and I had a Great experience! Not only the food but the service was 10/10 . I believe the person I spoke with today was the Area manager who was helping the team today and he was super nice great conversation and he was very confident in the food . He did not steer me wrong and I love that you can literally get it by the slice ! I got two slices and wings today the wings were solid ! It was a very welcoming friendly environment and I feel like that’s what we need . A few regulars were in the restaurant while I was eating and they were having great conversation about food with the staff . I definitely recommend this place to everyone especially for families“

“Still pretty good after the remodel. Great service including changing out our plates twice during dim sum which I did not expect. They constantly came over and took away plates. The items I thought very average include ham sui gok too much dough and not enough filling. Shrimp dumplings and Xiao mai and chang fun were ok. The chau siu puffs, malay sponge cake, and beef organs and offal were all excellent.“

“The best Phở in California!“

“Delicious food and great dinner service! I want to try every dish on the menu. Everything is seasoned to perfection and the price is right. I loved the salted pepper ribs and honey walnut shrimp. Had a great time and looking forward to trying their dim sum!“

“Todo está muy delicioso Buen servicio muy limpio el lugar“

“Best blind ice triple mocha..yummy to my tummy!!! And really enjoyed the event tonight...beautiful atmosphere❤“

“An expansive Cantonese menu of truly delicious items. Definitely recommend the fried oyster in XO sauce. Expect a little bit of wait, but the food is truly worth it. Decadent, flavored well. Also comes with free dessert of either herbal jelly or red bean soup.“
