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!“

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

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

“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!“

“Visited Neat, and I have to say the service was excellent, and the coffee was absolutely delicious and incredibly refreshing. We also tried the fluffy bread next door, which was just as enjoyable.

One thing to be aware of is that the ground flooring is very uneven, so it's worth watching your step while walking around the area. Unfortunately, our date was cut short due to an incident in the surrounding area shortly after we grabbed our coffee and food. Even so, the quality of the drinks, food, and friendly service left a positive impression.“

“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.“

“We absolutely love Shake Shack and it has become a family tradition for us to go once a week because it’s our child’s favorite place to eat. Every time we walk in, the staff recognizes us, greets us warmly, and treats our family with so much kindness.

When our son turned 2, we decided to celebrate his birthday there for dinner. The staff went above and beyond—they all came out to sing “Happy Birthday,” gave him a little toy football, and even brought him a bowl of ice cream for the birthday boy. It was such a sweet and memorable moment for our family.

Shake Shack is truly one of the most family- and child-friendly places we’ve been to. The music is always great, the food is consistently delicious, and, most importantly, the staff is always friendly and welcoming.

Thank you to the entire team for making our weekly family tradition so special. We’ll keep coming back! ❤“

“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.“

“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!“

“We hosted a party at 314 and had an excellent experience. Prices are fair and competitive, and the food is great. What’s really great about this venue is how much space there is. It is a great place for a party since there is also outdoor space for guests to enjoy, you are not just confined to a room. We had a wide age range of guests from a baby under a year old all the way to a 96 year-old, and everyone was comfortable and able to enjoy themselves. I would highly recommend this venue for large social gatherings but we have been plenty of times just for a night out or dinner/drinks with friends and it’s always been a great experience.“

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

“We had a great time at Spacecat Brewing for a casual night out. We ordered a few beers along with some food to share, including wings and a burger. The wings were crispy and well seasoned, while the burger was juicy with fresh toppings and a toasted bun. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun, making it easy to hang out and catch up with friends. A great spot for good food, drinks, and a laid-back evening.“

“Second time here. Good spot but 1 person in our group ordered the steak medium rare. First time steak came out was cooked well done and we sent it back. After 20 or so minutes the redo steak came out and was still overcooked but we were so hungry we just ate it.“

“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.“

“Best pilsner and Mexican summer lager in Fairfield county. Mike is meticulous about his beer making and it’s evident in the amazing flavor profiles of his product. Try the Award winning pilsner. You won’t be disappointed !“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“Third Place is easily my favorite bar in Stamford. The ambience, crowd, drinks, and food are all unreal, but what really makes the place stand out is the staff and the overall vibe.

Tseten makes the best coffee and never disappoints, and Nicolette is my favorite bartender always friendly, attentive, and great at making you feel welcome. The service is consistently quick without ever feeling rushed, which is something I really appreciate.

Great people, great drinks, great food, and an awesome atmosphere. I’ve been to plenty of places in Stamford, but Third Place is the one I keep coming back to. Highly recommend!“

“Best ice cream in the US“

“Best tres leche cake in the area!“

“With out question, this is my favorite place to eat. My biggest issue is deciding between lunch or breakfast and then narrowing down which sandwich I want. I can taste the quality of the ingredients and each sandwich is a moment of joy for my mouth. The staff is amazing and the food is my all time favorite. People are figuring out just how amazing this place is, that means we wait some time while enjoying a relaxed atmosphere and one of the best views in Norwalk... Invariably it's worth waiting for.“

“No better place on a beautiful summer day than on the water at The Beer Garden. And we love playing here, great spot for music.“

“I recently visited Crumbl Cookies, and I have to say, it was quite the treat! The moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly baked cookies is intoxicating. The store is clean, modern, and welcoming, with a delightful pink and black color scheme that adds to the charm.“

“My wife and I had dinner at The Farmers Table. Service was great, the food was absolutely delicious. We had a wonderful dining experience here.. highly recommend this restaurant will be back for more!!!“

“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. My good friend Heaven recommended this restaurant #foodie #crunchy #foryou & my favorite item was the sliders #yummy #viral #shorts“

“Dude was very nice. Welcoming of the kids. Enthusiastic about his tasty beer. Worth a stop.👍🏻“

“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.“

“I had the Boss Burger. While a large sandwich, I found it rather bland. Ordered it medium and it came well done. The waffle fries were good. My son had a chicken quesadilla and really liked it (I tried a taste and should have ordered that!). No fountain drinks and no beer were also disappointments.“

“Great pizza, wonderfully creative sandwiches (and killer meatballs!). Legendary jazz and blues legends on the walls and the best house music. Love it!!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Great food 🥘 great service“

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

“Fabulous place fabulous food fabulous staff fantastic time“

“Authentic, craft made on-site and delicious. Exactly as I remember when I was at the Oggi location in Rome. I've been multiple times now to all three locations in CT. It is special!
If I were to search for a flaw, their scoop portions seem random. Sometimes the Gelato is barely past the top of the cup. Other times, there is a nice crown. A couple could expect to pay $18 for two medium cups of Gelato. (That's two scoops per cup) For the price, the scoops should be on the more generous side.
However, if you're looking to experience genuine Italian Gelato, Oggi is the real deal!“

“Food delicious.
However, there’s no menu which is a little confusing. You just walk in and there’s a counter and you just asked what they have and they make you a plate. The oxtail was straight deliciousness. Tender, flavorful. The plate served was a large portion.“

“We had an amazing experience with this taco truck for our daughter’s birthday party! Alex, John, and Pedro were absolutely fantastic. They were friendly, professional, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish.

The food was fresh, delicious, and served incredibly fast, even with a crowd. They had a great selection of toppings and took the extra step of constantly moving everything into the shade to keep it fresh in the summer heat. They also stayed as long as we needed without ever making us feel rushed.

Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good the tacos were! If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality taco truck with exceptional service, I can’t recommend them enough. Thank you, Alex, John, and Pedro, for helping make our celebration so special! 🌮🎉“

“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.“

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

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

“I was craving a burrito. Not a chipotle burrito where they skimp on the ingredients, But a big voluptuous, tasty Burrito. Look no further. Despite the location being empty, it provided me the opportunity to witness manager and the staff who were training A new hire at the time provide exceptional service. Yeah, it’s just a chain restaurant, but the quality of the food and service was Exceptional. I Ordered the surf and turf burrito with white rice, black beans, guacamole, sour cream, and spicy salsa. I got this order to go in. The checkout process was straight Forward. The burrito with chips and queso as well as a large fountain drink came to about $27 with a 15% tip. Totally worth it. I had to double fist this thing because it was so big and delicious. I don’t live in Norwalk, but that was the closest location and most convenient at the time. Making it a meal- I added chips and spicy queso and a large soda. The chips were not stale and slightly salted, which vibed well with the queso. The Diablo queso wasn’t as spicy as advertised, but that’s OK. It served its purpose in between gigantic bites of the burrito. I was on my way home to Danbury and that Damn burrito was still warm after a 40 minute drive in traffic. Admittedly, The portion of meat, i.e. steak and shrimp could be a little more generous, but the overall quality and flavor of the combination I ordered was “peak.” I fully anticipate going back to this location to order the same thing.
Hopefully, the Qdoba executives of the world see this and acknowledge what a complementary review this is for this location and the staff that helped me there. Not trying to pull any favors, but a random acknowledgment of their promising success would be powerful. I will see you soon.“

“Amazing, filling tacos! ¡Muy sabroso!“

“Tutto molto buono e posto gradevole“
