50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Washington

“Agora DC made my husband’s surprise birthday dinner party one to remember! From the superior customer service and professionalism of their special events management team, including Tsednia Abay, to the Michelin Star-worthy food and service, no detail was left untouched. Thank you to your entire team!😍“

“Great waiter- delicious food, unique and cooked perfect! Music and vibes were very very fun!!!“

“Excellent meal for Valentine's Day! We had the special Valentine's Day menu (pretty much all new entrees) and it did not disappoint. The pork "spring roll" was amazing, as was the beef with grits and wish they could appear on their regular menu one day. The service was excellent as always. The wine was delicious and reasonably priced for the bottle.“

“Finding a Filipino restaurant isn’t easy. So learning about Purple Patch thru Jo Koy—has ended this search! Literally, Filipino cuisine heaven! The restaurant is uniquely decorated, the staff were friendly, & the food hit that major comfort button for us! Thank you Zahara for being so sweet & a wonderful waitress. We can’t wait to come back for more!“

“Amazing dishes. Chive cakes, marigold, Laos wine, the butterfly and hummingbird were delicious. The presentation on the pla tong ma was almost as good as the flavor. Aim helped us choose our dishes and provided excellent service.“

“Great food- great people ....what more could you ask for“

“I enjoyed the green zone, it had me flying high. Flying high when I tried their coffee drink. There was so much in it I don’t even know what to call it, but look at the picture, it looks delicious. I payed a pretty penny for it too, but pennies I got. This place cost a lot of green so bring your wallet, credit card too. Have fun, it’s good (at least their coffee drink is).“

“Incredible experience. Will be returning.“

“Ottimo , ci siamo sentiti a casa“

“Absolutely incredible food. Our Lyft driver recommended we try it, now I'm sad we live 4 hours away from some of the best pizza I've ever had.“

“Always a DC favorite for hosting and client dinners — your team consistently creates a great experience.“

“The first time checking this place out. ordered it to go. Customer service was great, staff was knowledgeable of the menu and gave a great recommendation. I got the spaghetti drunken noodles with chicken. Phenomenal, definitely will be going back. I'm actually surprised the flavors were still intact. For it to be a to go order lol“

“Did the cocktail mixing class. Great food and awesome experience!“

“Best egg dishes in DC! It’s a must-try destination!“

“We love to try new and different foods, and the quality of the food at the Immigrant Cafe was absolutely outstanding. Even our 7 and 9 year old kids found foods they loved. We particularly liked the ceviche, the chicken coconut curry and the dumplings. Foodie four thumbs up!“

“I had the best experience hosting my party at Turo Bar! The team truly went above and beyond to help plan and execute everything perfectly. They were so communicative, helpful, and incredibly thoughtful throughout the entire process.

I shared my theme, and Gabriela and her team brought it to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined, they provided so many decorations and completely transformed the space. I’m so grateful for the amazing team at Turo Bar and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to host a special event!“

“Great meal recently at Cucina Morini !!! The food, service and drinks were all on point !! See the photos for our recommendations !!! You can order half orders of pasta !! Perfect if you want to try different things.“

“First visit; I went for Restaurant Week. I ordered the chicken corn chowder, the short rib ravioli and the caramel cheesecake. The chowder was excellent, a great balance of corn and chicken and a goodly amount--but not too much--pepper. I loved it...and a very generous portion! The ravioli was super too--cooked to perfection, stuffed to capacity with cheese, accompanied by a nice hunk of well-seasoned and -cooked short rib. I wasn't able to finish it, so I took some home. I took the cheesecake home too and ate it after a couple of conf calls. Just the right amount of caramel with a couple of strawberries and a creme Anglaise sauce. Scrumptious!! I don't remember many occasions when I've loved all three courses of a meal, but that was certainly the case tonight. I can't wait to go back.“

“Thank you so much for having my friends Kristina, Alex and I for dinner today. I just want to say that everything we had was great, my favorite being the la calabrese! Meiling took such good care of us, she is a wonderful host and we had some great conversations with her. We’ll def be back in the future to try some of the other pizzas. Your decor and ambience is fantastic as well, I really felt like I was at restaurant in Italy! Keep up the good work and thanks again for a wonderful evening!“

“Excellent food and atmosphere. The bartenders were also super chill and make really creative drinks. Recommend the honey wine!“

“A cute and cozy bistro with delicious food and fabulous service!“

“5 stars isn't enough!! From the moment we walked in until the end of our night we were satisfied. The decorations, food, and service was amazing! They even offered me a quiet place to pray :). Give this place a try-trust me (portions may seem small, but it was very filling- we ordered the bowl of fries, which came with a delicious sauce, CROQUETTES, fish burger, beef burger, and gnocchi pomodoro. It felt like we were in nyc enjoy :)“

“If you are on a gluten free diet, this restaurant is a real treat. This is the ONLY restaurant I know of in the entire DC area that offers gluten free French toast!!! It is really yummy. It is gluten free cinnamon raison bread that they make into French toast. It is served with maple syrup that has few slices of bananas in it. It is always served warm. (Be sure to look for the bananas. If the French toast is served with sliced strawberries, that is the wheat based French toast.) This restaurant also has gluten free bread so most of their sandwiches can be made gluten free upon request. And they can make their eggs benedict gluten free by using their gluten free toast. It is a very pleasant experience dining here. I usually dine outside. They are located on a small street in Georgetown. Georgetown can be crowded but on this small street, it is never very busy. On a nice weather day, it is a pleasant experience to eat the gluten free French toast while enjoying the weather. The service is always good too. I enthusiastically recommend this restaurant.“

“Nice atmosphere . Troy was a great host/server.“

“I'm from Texas and have been dying to find a breakfast taco spot. I might as well have been in my mom's kitchen, eating tacos on a Sunday morning. that's how amazing La Tejana tacos are!“

“great food and service nice spot“

“We sat at the high tables, because we didn't have a reservation, but we received great service. The bar area gets crowded so we were lucky to get a seat and experience their 3 course meal. Every course was delicious and felt like a treat.“

“Loved our visit and such a dining experience! You have to try it!! Cheers y’all“

“Great food! The only complaint I have is the laptop policy which prevents this from being a place to get work done especially over the weekend. However that’s subjective and I can understand some of the reasoning. The food is outstanding“

“DELICIOUS lunch at Et Voila DC!! The salads were amazing and the beer was cold and wonderful! It was my first time at the restaurant & I will definitely return. Highly Recommend!! 🎉🥗🍻❤️🍻🥗🎉“

“I was a solo traveler, stayed for 2 nights. I've requested a quiet room, which I've got.
Welcome champagne was amazing after long flight, straight at the front desk.
The hotel is very clean and well kept, the room was very comfortable and not small like some reviews online complaining (I stayed at superior). The shower was great too, with European shower head that you can move around. There was a lot of glass in bathroom (shelves etc.) and I would be a bit worried if I had my very active kindergartener around that, so that's something to consider if you have young kids.
The food was very good (room service 20% gratitude, $8 delivery, dinner averaged between $20 - $30, I've never waited longer than 10 minutes). Thermostat had drained batteries, I called front desk, they send a polite worker to fix it within a minute, all great.
The Riggs café is woth checking out, stunning ambience and truly top service. I spent time there having breakfast and lunch just reading kindle, no problem.
Silver Lyan - great ambience, drinks are amazing and the service again, awesome. Don't expect the drinks to be huge and made with the intent to get you drunk, they are more sophisticated, at least mine with absinthe, acorn... (It's alive!) was - it was so good I wish I had the recipe, martini was woth trying too. Again, I went earlier evening, spent an hour reading kindle, asked few questions about the place (the server was very polite and knowledgeable about the place). Music was pleasant and not too loud nor too quiet.
Worth noting - both Silver Lyan and Riggs café were cool temperature wise, so even in hot weather, I was comfortable sitting there in long sleeved top. Some underground bars tend to have stuffy air, but not this one.
Walking distance to National gallery of art was about 10 - 15 minutes (slow-ish tourist walk).
Over experience comparing with other hotels I stayed in: Riggs feels more personal (it feels like the employees really want you to have a good experience) and having more of its own personality, attention to detail, and management must be skilled at running the hotel smoothly without visible hiccups - not an easy achievement.“

“This is hands down the best bakery I have ever been to. I don’t think you can go wrong with anything they have. My personal favs from my recent visit were the scallion, egg & cheese croissant, crab rangoon croissant, and strawberry milk donut. If you are in the area while Rose Ave is open, you would be doing yourself a disservice by not stopping by. The only negative thing i can say about going here is that, for people who do not live in or frequent the DC area, you will forever long to return. There was almost 5 years between my first and second visit here, and i dreamed of that return every single day.“

“The crispy mushroom sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever. So crispy and full of flavor. Mac n cheese was pretty top shelf as well. Fast and friendly service.“

“We loved having dinner so much on Friday night that we had lunch on Saturday! Lobster roll was delicious. Great selection of raw oysters. PEI mussels were the best! Service was on point. Friday night Ashley was great and sorry I didn’t get our great servers name on Saturday. Manager Ronald Vasquez was so personable and made us feel like regulars. Wish we lived a bit closer because we would be. Highly recommend!“

“Friendly! European atmosphere!“

“Great drinks & the servers were very attentive.“

“I recently visited this Japanese restaurant and had an absolutely amazing dining experience. The sushi was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and full of authentic flavor. I also tried the ramen and tempura, and both dishes were prepared perfectly with high-quality ingredients. The atmosphere was calm, elegant, and welcoming, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff members were attentive, polite, and provided excellent customer service throughout the visit.“

“Bagels were delicious and customer service was outstanding. I also witnessed the staff being kind to people in their community. It was a small act of kindness but it showed me the type of business it was. I will be back every time we are in town and I recommend everyone to visit here and support them.“

“Dinner at Herbivore Indian Cuisine was fantastic! Every dish had an authentic, homemade flavor. We loved the crispy Samosa Chaat and tender Chicken Pakora to start.

The Butter Chicken was rich, creamy, and perfectly buttery, while the Vegetable Biryani was fragrant and packed with spiced veggies and crunchy fried onions. The Lamb Vindaloo delivered bold, balanced heat with melt-in-your-mouth lamb.

Generous portions, fresh flavors, and friendly service make this a true DC favorite for both veg and non-veg cravings!“

“We came here after the nationals game and Dylan was our server and it was his best experience ever. My husband had the liver and onions and I had the cob salad and it was delicious. My sister-in-law had the avocado salad. I would come here at 10 out of 10 a time every single time and don’t forget to ask for Dylan as your waiter. It was amazing. And order the Mojito!“

“We came for a birthday brunch, and had the best foods and time there. The foods came out pretty fast. All the dishes that we selected were delicious 😋, and so we're the desserts. The restaurant chain customer relation manager was at the restaurant today, came to greet us. He also gave coupon for a free appetizer at our next visit. Our waitress was attentive. We would definitely recommend this restaurant to our friends and families as well as come here again ourselves 🙂“

“This was some of the best food I’ve ever had. I would never normally choose Italian as a n “”out to eat” option but I’m so glad I did! I would eat here night after night if I could.“

“We had the absolute best experience hosting our wedding at Casamara. I was so impressed with how smooth my wedding day went! We were so excited to be their first wedding - the entire team behind Casamara, Reynolds and SIXTY DC truly came together to deliver on the wedding of my dreams! Everything ran seamlessly which made the day feel effortless and stress-free. The ceremony on the rooftop was absolutely stunning and very DC, with the sunset as our backdrop and the top of the monument in the background! Reynolds was the perfect spot for cocktail hour- swanky, sexy, and such a vibe! The cocktails were expertly crafted and the passed hors d’oeuvres were plentiful and delicious. We were back on the rooftop for our party- the layout was just perfect for our cocktail-style party and dinner was absolutely incredible. Everything we’ve ever ordered at Casamara has been amazing, and this night it was no different - we had the best of the best. Chef Matt is really an unbelievable chef, a master of his craft. The desserts were a huge hit, Cassidy wins the award for best chocolate chip cookies in the DMV and her chocolate mousse is unreal! Jonathan and Gabriel were our bartenders and Jessamyn ran point on service - I was so happy to have them, they had great energy until the very end! The service was truly impeccable from start to finish - the team was on top of their game and the everyone at Casamara, Reynolds and SIXTY DC made our wedding weekend such an amazing success. A huge thank you to Katherine who helped bring our vision to life- I am forever grateful for her! Michael and Dmytro, these two brought the party! I couldn’t believe it when some of our guests were telling us that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to- we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue or team to bring our dream wedding to life!“

“The massive portions of cheesecake YUM“

“We went to hear the band and try the cuisine. The band (Ambience) and the food were excellent!“

“I had the pleasure of dining at The Hitching Post DC. I ordered the grilled lamb chops, mac & cheese, collard greens. The lamb chops are in my top 2 of the best I've ever tasted. I don't normally order mac & cheese when I go out to a restaurant, but this order was perfect as well. The collard greens could use a little vinegar, however, they were still delicious. I will definitely dine there in the near future. The lemon cake had was flavorful, moist and delicious, too. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Absolutely incredible food. Our Lyft driver recommended we try it, now I'm sad we live 4 hours away from some of the best pizza I've ever had.“

“Great brunches… will be back soon!“

“Great service, clean, and delicious! Definitely a great treat!“

“Best French Bistro. Very high quality food. Veg options plenty. Kir Royale on menu. Service outstanding. Bri the waitress was very good. Nice view of the waterfront. We liked it so much we went there three times during our one week stay. Very extensive menu. Look no further if you a high quality French food without pretension. We certainly will go back. Worth more than five stars.“
