50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Studio City

“Hadasa (sorry if I spelled it wrong) made our first impression wonderful she was patient during the rush and went over the menu with us
We will definitely come back if there’s service like that ! We loved the Birria ramen! Thank you“

“Phenomenal service and amazing Gelato in the Italian style from Argentina 🇦🇷. Very friendly and welcoming. Lots of places to sit, work, visit. They've even got a back patio with gorgeous umbrellas. Great wifi and also coffee options. Support local and come enjoy some of the best coffee and dessert in LA“

“We were 5 ppl ,ordered like 8 dishes all were amazingly great my first time to Gokaku Rama. Was so worth it after all day in universal su Dr ios,3 min drive to Gokaku place ..I did not want to end my meal .this is the best restaurant“

“Must get sushi, but don’t forget the corn tempura and momotaro tomato (seasonal). Awesome sake selection too.“

“If you add protein powder to a bowl, you will be raw dogging it. Thought it would be mixed in… if you let it melt a bit you can mix it in yourself. I was, however, impressed w the amount of fruit they give you. The front worker was sweet. Shaded outdoor seating available. It’s a cute vibe.“

“TLDR: good food, okay service.

I'll start with the good 😊 My husband and I have come here quite a bit throughout the years and have attended a handful of the special events they've put together. They had a rum event where they paired dishes with a variety of rum tastings. It was a great date night and nights like that will keep us coming back. I also remember a delicious to-go Valentine's box during covid that was so thoughtful and delicious. We have enjoyed tasting every dish we've been able to try.

A couple of our favorites have been the smoked trout on ciabatta and the ricotta gnudi. The smoked trout is a hearty bite but somehow light at the same time haha. It's craveable. We like it as a starter or if we're still feeling hungry after a few other dishes. The ricotta gnudi however, is sooo rich and satisfying after a few bites, making it a very decadent and shareable plate. It's probably too much for only two people but we still eat all five pieces and only feel a little guilty after. I give 5 out of 5 stars for the food here.

With that being said, we recently went to try Antonia's winning dishes from ToC. We ordered both dishes and felt like they were probably better when Antonia made them haha. The sausage didn't have a great texture and both dishes needed salt but overall, they weren't bad and I'm happy we tried them.

I think they fall a little short in customer service and possibly staffing. We have had a couple of good interactions but on the norm, it seems like they are understaffed in areas. This is the reason I'm giving 4 stars vs 5. Well, that and because we'll often book a reservation online but when we show up, we have unfortunately been seated at the worst tables. It's usually the smallest table they have and in a very noisy location. Maybe we have had bad luck. Maybe it's because we're two small people without a dog, so they think we'll be happy crammed into the smallest spot they have?

This last visit, we were lead to an indoor table that was sandwiched between two large groups. On one side, the table was about an inch away from someone's back. On the other side, there was a group of about 12 girls having a bachelorette party and scream laughing. We just knew it would be hard to have a conversation there, so we asked about seating outside. They accommodated us by seating us at maybe the next worst table haha. It was just outside the front door but we knew it would be 100% better than where we were. We appreciate them moving us 🙏

I guess the point to that story is, be vocal on where you want to sit. Also, your chances of getting a good table seems to increase if you bring your dog haha, which is unfortunate.

Oh! And as far as parking goes, it's a little hard to find a spot but they offer valet. The area around the restaurant is super cute if you want to walk around a bit before or after your meal. I recommend checking out Color Me Mine just down the street for a nice date night.“

“This place is the Go-To spot for sushi.. always fresh and delicious 😋“

“My family and I have been going to the Good Neighbor for over 20+ years, and always great food and excellent service!“

“I love this place. The food is excellent. The vibe is wonderful. The only issue is that the lids on the coffee cups do not stay on. If you walk even a few feet it will instantly leak out the side. It happens every time whether it’s 2 cups or one cup. We know this is a fixable problem.“

“Ending our dinner at Sugarfish, the host recommended we try Van Leeuwen Ice Cream..and wow, I’m so glad we did. I got the Earl Grey and Sugar Cookie Dough, and it was absolutely delicious. The small cup was the perfect amount to end the evening.

The cashier was incredibly kind and let us sample several flavors until we found the ones we loved, which made the experience even better. Everything was so yummy 😋

Highly recommend if you’re near one of their locations..and bonus, they have vegan options too!“

“Salmon Ikura dish is amazing! So much flavor!“

“Delicious food and drinks!!!“

“Excellent, very focused, lovely people working very hard here to please their guests. I want to thank my fellow restaurant folks who work so hard to get our orders correct.“

“Terrible place duchie not mad“

“This predominantly vegan restaurant serves a good variety of delicious, fresh and healthy fare. I recommend the lentil loaf, colossal kale salad, flautas, and the orange cauliflower lo mein among others, and I hear the breakfast items (served all day) are excellent. Arlene is a fantastic server. In addition to the mostly vegan items, the eclectic menu also recently added some vegetarian but non-vegan entrees and even fish. This has drawn some unfair criticism. Please keep in mind that times are very difficult now for restaurants, and at least doubly so for vegetarian and vegan restaurants. If the inclusion of a few non-vegan items helps keep this gem of an eatery with a predominantly vegan/vegetarian menu afloat, then all the better for all of us.“

“Local delight (new to me) with great pizza and lovely back patio. The owner takes pride in the food and it shows. With new places I go with straight pepperoni at first. Beautiful crust, perfect cheese/meat ratio. I’ll be back to try more toppings.“

“Great, friendly crew and delish food“

“Great atmosphere and the food was great!“

“I am latina and typically I prefer to eat authentic Mexican food at home but this place really does serve authentic Mexican food and happy to know if I'm craving an enchilada, taquitos or chilaquiles, I can hit this spot so close to work.

I've tried their Breakfast and lunch and everything has been delicious. Their breakfast egg, bacon and pancakes platter 10 out if 10. Their popular Enchiladas Ranchera, on point. Mole chicken enchiladas BOMBAY!! And I'm picky as hell when it comes to mole. Recently ordered a Chicken Caesar salad, as well as their seasoned potato wedges (they don't serve fries), big portions and so good. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable. Oh and almost forgot, in my last visit there was a complimentary chips and salsa mini bar. Friendly staff, fast service, good food, great prices. It is 1000% a hidden gem in Studio City.“

“Max is the man!! Ty for the great service!!“

“Artisanal ice cream. Very good.“

“Excellent food and service!! Fresh hot quiet. Very friendly attentive staff!“

“Love Vitellos, feels like an awesome local secret, while being a classic la restaurant at the same time. Great food, amazing staff and fun night out. They always seem to find a way to connect to the neighborhood in new and interesting ways as well.“

“Very cute coffee shop. They have tables outside and inside. Has a good amount of space. I came here because this coffee shop donates parts of their profits to an organization that supports immigrant families. Its a very noble thing to do. Owner was very nice and staff was super friendly and helpful. Place got a little busy when we were there but they were pretty organized for how busy they were. Coffee was delicious. I ordered a regular latte with whole milk and liquid sugar. Very good. The food was delicious too. I got the raspberry croissant and that was also a treat. The Sourdough toast with Salmon and avocado was really good too. I will definitely be back.“

“Everything was Awesome! Great food and Atmosphere!“

“Delicious food and drinks!!!“

“I almost didn't want to post about this place because i dont want this place to get too busy! I like the chill (titanic) vibe and delicious food above all. I get my most frequent take out dinners here. My favorite is Galbi-Tang, its very similar to caldo de rez, but with different veggies. Anyway, hoping this helps someone decide this is a good reliable spot to try sometime when youre craving Korean food.“

“Great sportsbar. Love the open air concept. Small and quaint inside. Wings were phenomenal. Late night happy hour is cool. There is half off a few items I didn’t take advantage of. I came specifically for bone in wings and ranch and was impressed :)“

“Delicious. We had 3 different burgers and they didn't disappoint. it was my best burger yet.“

“Menu looked great. Walked in and was skeptical. The brisket eggrolls were the best appetizer anyone in our group has ever had. Mezcal drink was excellent. Poke nachos - top….nach :) And the bartender ran the entire bar & restaurant solo. Impressive stuff!“

“I go to the Tujunga Kreation everyday. The team is always pleasant & knowledgeable giving great customer service. I usually call ahead for my order, which is always ready when I arrive. Alex and the rest of the team pride themselves in having your order correct & ready!“

“Great service! Great breakfast! Melt in your mouth pancakes“

“Comfortable room, but high noise levels.“

“There are a lot of places in Los Angeles to get a good. If not great sandwich. What sets Paulie's apart has to be the friendliest counter service I ever consistently run into. I was in there with my son this weekend and the gentleman behind the counter was kind and joked and smiled and did all the things that you want to see to make somebody feel welcome in your establishment. And it's not the first time I've experienced this there and it's not always with the same person. The sandwiches are bomb. But the service puts it over the top every time.“

“excellent service. very rich“

“Loved our meals, took my son here who’s 17 and he loved his meal. He had the milanesa napolitana and i had the chicken with mushrooms on it. Service was also phenomenal“

“Charming place to put in some work (if you don’t mind the background music) when a change of scenery is needed.“

“🙂👍 Bryce is a great bartender!“

“Clean, consistent, and easily the best Shake Shack I’ve been to in LA. Fresh food, quick service, and reliable every time.

This Ventura Blvd location has been the most consistent Shake Shack experience for me. I’ve been to Downtown LA and West Hollywood and those can feel a little hit or miss, but this one always delivers. The ShackBurger was fresh and balanced. Crinkle-cut fries were hot and crispy, and the order came out quickly.

Parking can be a little chaotic during lunch, so keep an eye out so you don’t miss it. There is parking in the back on the opposite side of the street behind the restaurant. It does a lot of DoorDash and pickup traffic, but it never feels overwhelmingly busy inside. Space is clean, service is efficient, and overall quality control here feels stronger than other locations.

Pro tips:
• Watch carefully for parking during peak lunch hours
• Use the rear lot across the street if front spots are full
• This location feels fresher and more consistent than others in LA“

“The best gourmet food you could ever have in a very reasonable prices,is Gourmet47 caffè.They also have a great catering menu ,which is not in their regular daily menus ,I tried most of them,they all are amazing ? great prices great taste ,very distinctive ,very special ingredients that you rarely find them in other restaurants.“

“Always amazing food and service. I just love this restaurant.“

“I cannot believe I have never written about this Ubatuba! I have been coming here for YEARS and I absolutely love it. This location is hands down one of my favorite places in LA. The staff here over the past few years have always been amazing. They always remember who you are and you really feel like family. The sizes of the bowls are great! And you get to choose your own toppings. I come here so often and I just want to say how much I love it here!“

“In these stressful times, we all deserve to treat ourselves! Have your clothes beautifully laundered, folded and safely packaged! They’re still taking drop off and pick up! And still serving their amazing specialty coffee too’ #openforbusiness“

“Nice place to chill, nice back patio too.“

“I went last Saturday, my first time there. The experience was incredible! The environment is amazing, cozy, genuine! 😃The customer service: A+‼️ Friendly, courteous and respectful. Food was ready really quick 😃👌🏻and it was very DELICIOUS ‼️😍😋😋😋 The three generations: Grandma, daughter and granddaughter; we enjoyed our time there!

“great service and hospitality and also really good food. second time we been back since we're visiting LA from Vegas. I highly recommend eating here.“

“me and my GF were visiting LA from the eUK , order was so good ordered again the next morning. Highly recommend!“

“Really amazing coffee, oat milk is an option (my fave!), super friendly baristas, adorable shop with a perfect location for me in Studio City, and I love the banana and almond butter with honey toast! ��“

“the best Hawaiian sandwich ever!!!! it's a very long drive but worth every time“
