50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Darien

“Food is delicious! Went for dinner best burger in town! Meatloaf yummmm“

“Wonderful dinner experience last evening. The food is delicious and although the place was packed, we never felt rushed to finish. Instead, we were thanked multiple times for visiting and the entire staff was warm and friendly. We will be back!“

“Great food/ staff. Definitely a destination to dine“

“Look what I just found in my salad from Papa Joe’s - much #love as always!“

“Found myself in Darien for the first time! Neat was an incredible find. The barista at the register was so kind and had excellent customer service. I ordered their seasonal maple latte and it was perfect! It’s hard to find good quality espresso in CT with house made syrups so this was a gem. If you’re looking for specialty coffee Neat is the place! If you like diner coffee stay away 😂“

“5 out of 5 hands down! The atmosphere is awesome, the staff are wonderful and the food... BOMB. The Katsu Chicken sandwich is my favorite! They also have ready to go cold salads, sandwiches, juices and small snacks which makes a quick stop easy, efficient and healthy!“

“The great food and service that they provide at the Darien Diner❗️“

“Memorable Happy Hour! My colleagues and I recently hosted a business happy hour at Scena, and we were blown away by the fantastic service, delicious food, and refreshing drinks. Cristian's attentive presence was commendable. He consistently checked in with us, making us feel valued and well taken care of. The bartender and the rest of the crew were incredibly friendly and accommodating, adding to the positive vibe of the evening. Scena rose to the occasion, delivering beyond our expectations for our group of 25-30 people. The tastefully decorated interior and cozy seating arrangements created a comfortable space for socializing and networking. Overall, our experience at Scena was phenomenal. The exceptional service, mouthwatering food, and delightful ambiance made it an unforgettable happy hour. We wholeheartedly recommend Scena for a memorable dining experience.“

“Friendly staff, plenty of seating later in the evening once dinner rush dies down. Like most Shack Shack locations, orders take a long time to prepare. My dine-in order with a cheeseburger, fries, and shake took nearly 20 minutes despite there being very few customers.“

“Amazing place that really takes care of their customers!“

“This is my new favorite caffe! The sandwiches are incredible, they have a great coffee and tea selection, they have pastries, AND they have gelato! Everything is so good, and the ambiance is amazing. The staff are all incredibly kind and attentive, too. I love this place, 5 stars for sure.“

“This place is incredible!! I love the atmosphere and the kindness everyone has shown there! Soo excited to get donuts this morning!!“

“We both had the caesar salad and the flank steak sandwich, which was delicious. Thank you for supporting Westport-Weston Chamber of Commerce Restaurant Week. We will be back soon!“

“314 Beer Garden was amazing for my 40th high school reunion. Jackie worked with me on a layout and prices that were amazing. George was there to oversee the food that we had ordered and was extremely attentive. The bartenders that we had that night in our area were amazing and personable. And last, but not least the kitchen staff pumped out great food which everybody enjoyed. The fire was roaring and the band was amazing. 10 out of 10 would recommend!“

“They let you bring your dogs indoors while you drink and snack on food!!! That alone deserves a 5 star. Our guess was that because they opt to prepare food outside and keep drinks inside, they would create this paradise for dog owners.

We ended up getting delicious fried chicken, double patty bacon burger, onion rings, and a fruity alcoholic drink.

Bathroom was spotless and service was relatively fast and food delicious. Definitely a great place to bring your furry family member while you snack on a treat.“

“The food was absolutely delicious! We had Calamari, Veal Romano and Chicken Parm. All three dishes were some of the best Italian food I have ever had. The service was excellent. There was not one negative thing at our visit.“

“The wait staff were attentive and the food was delicious. We were celebrating a birthday and the staff were kind and accommodated our request for seating by the window, comp-ed our dessert and came out and sang as they delivered the dessert. Excellent service! We'll be back!“

“Best food truck in Connecticut! Delicious food and amazing workers. 10/10“

“best place ever! beer is amazing and the staff is great. I spilt a beer and within 1 minute the staff came to me with a new pint and cleaned everything up. 100% recommend, great vibes and beer. the only thing I would say is the nachos we got had parchment paper at the bottom and half the nachos were inedible due to the paper being stuck to them. doesn’t matter still 10/10 experience“

“Best ice cream in the US“

“Loved this brewery!! Cute, clean space. We went on a Saturday afternoon and it was quite empty. We have a CT beer passport book that brought us there. Parking lot was a good size and easily accessible. The staff was so sweet and attentive. Seating was open and they served you at the table. A handful of beers on tap with a mix of options. They have a full menu and my boyfriend and I had the tacos - chicken and pulled pork, which were both delicious! Great sized portions. We also loved their logo, super cute design. I would love to see their space busier on a Saturday afternoon! If you drive by, consider stopping by for some great vibes.“

“I will always recommend the tater tots as they are perfectly seasoned and will never be soggy the way they package them. But my new obsession is the brownie sundae I want the recipe to the best brownie ever!“

“Best tres leche cake in the area!“

“Amazing food, drink and service“

“We had the most wonderful evening at Bar Vera. Nancy and Kiria were so kind, attentive and welcoming. Our favorites were the fried halloumi, the kofte meatballs, and the best baklava I’ve ever had. One of the coziest date night spots in Stamford. Cannot wait to come back here ASAP!“

“TODAY WE WENT TO CWISPY CHKN IN STAMFORD CT #foodlover #foodreview #review #ct #stamford #organic #chicken we ordered the sliders & chicken N waffles there were a few parking spaces in the front & the location is on a corner.

“Great healthy food very friendly great atmosphere authentic Japanese food the Roman chicken was amazing ❤️❤️❤️ recommend it big time“

“This is the best spot for lunch. i grew up in the restaurant business and it’s hard to find a place that has great food. This place is the best for lunch in Norwalk. Great size portions. Great flavors. Very friendly owners and staff.“

“Great food 🥘 great service“

“Staff was incredible at a very crowded event, will definitely come back to try the foods.“

“The best Italian food in Fairfield and Westchester County.

Italian-American hot food classics made from scratch every morning (like chicken scarpiello, eggplant parm, sausage & peppers, tons of vegetables) all bursting with real flavor and cooked with the finest ingredients and extra virgin olive oil.

The market itself feels old-school and designed with a great attention to detail… fresh mozzarella, imported meats and cheeses, pastas, desserts, cannolis, gelato are all here.

What makes it special is the people. Orlando, Jonathan, Oscar, and the whole crew run this place with heart and serious pride in their craft.

I’ve been coming bere 20 years. Their catering’s incredible too, it wins over rooms.“

“Amazingly good food! My husband and I were in Norwalk, CT for a wedding and the following day we were looking for a "brunch" place before heading back to Middletown, CT. Did a Google search and saw the reviews for Herb's Place. While it wasn't the sit down we were thinking of, I'm really glad we went. The food was SO good! We'll definitely go back if we're ever in that area again.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars for Boss Burger!
Best burgers in Norwalk, hands down! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was top-notch. If you’re looking for a juicy, high-quality burger and a friendly atmosphere, this is the place to go. Highly recommend! 🍔🔥“

“We hadn't made a reservation but Lucia was super accommodating. We love eating here as it has a bustling vibe, like a New York bistro. Food, as always outstanding and atmosphere first class. Cannot wait to return.“

“Fabulous place fabulous food fabulous staff fantastic time“

“Picked up dinner last night and it was absolutely delicious..everything was wonderful 🤩😋“

“Ooooooooooh yeeaahh!! Been waiting for a place like this to come local! It's finally here and it's excellent! I order from this joint at least once a week. Love some lamb over rice. Keep it coming because we love it!“

“Stopped in for a strawberry banana smoothie, 5 stars! Great service, great friendly atmosphere, and workers very knowledgeable about the product! Will be returning!“

“Prices have gone up, I was charged $3 for a chicken taco yesterday and the menu no longer has prices. Fantastic food, cleanliness / hygiene less than desirable (cook was wearing sleeveless t with no hairnet) but you’re eating from a truck in an autobody shop 🤷🏻‍♀️“

“I stopped by Caribbean Bakery & Mini Mart for dinner and went straight for their oxtail with rice & peas and veggies. The plate was huge, and you could smell the seasoning before it even hit the table. The oxtail was flavorful, tender, and coated in a rich sauce that really pulled the dish together. The rice was fluffy, the peas earthy, and everything had that authentic homemade Caribbean taste.

If I had one wish, it would be for the oxtail pieces to be a little meatier — because the flavor had me wanting more. Portion-wise though, they don’t skimp, and everything tasted fresh.

Service was straightforward, the spot has that local charm, and it’s definitely worth checking out if you’re craving real Caribbean flavor in the area. One heads-up: parking can be tough, especially earlier in the day, so plan ahead.

I’ll be back!“

“It was our first time there. A great place to have a cup of coffee, and some good eats. Also the lunch menu looked very good, I’ll try it next time I’m there. We’re going back, highly recommend it“

“you have to go there and order the fire 🔥 ball wrap... it's amazing 👏 😍 🙌“

“The food was delicious, service was great too! Really good drinks 🍹“

“Amazing, filling tacos! ¡Muy sabroso!“

“My first Bubbly’s Bubble Tea. I was so excited! Got a slushy with cherry bobas. It was amazing!! So delicious and refreshing. I loved my slushy! I got a new favorite drink now and going back for more this weekend! Thank you Bubbly’s. You are a wonderful addition to Wall Street.“

“Amazing, fresh food! Great customer service.“

“Great location in a lively, redeveloped section of Stamford. We had an event with a fixed price menu and each course was amazingly good. Come hungry, because they give you a lot of food. Apps, salad, pasta and main courses were all wonderful. Great service and a great view of the harbor. Not sure if it is open to the public, but if it is, check it out.“
