39 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Wildwood

“I’m from Texas here for work. When I was driving by, I noticed your store I had to stop. I am a chocolate fan. Thank you for putting a smile on my face..“

“We were surprised at how good this restaurant was! Large selection of food choices,and the Shepherds Pie was delicious! The fried shrimp were huge butterfly shrimp with a light tasty batter. The homemade cakes and pies were amazing.“

“Outback dinner experience was amazing! This was a recently newer Outback location. Very clean, very modern, and a terrific open layout. Similar layout as other locations however lower booth/bar walls which really opens up the feel of the space.
We were greeted upon entry by the friendly hosts. There was a wait, which we knew, it was dinner time. We were told 30 minutes, they called us in 7 minutes. Bonus!
Our waitress was, Susan, a super friendly soul, who was wonderful, attentive, and just the right amount of chat. This one one of the very few occasions that everyone at our table, had their order come out correctly. The staff worked seamlessly in sync with one another. It was the definition of one team working together. If someone saw a drink at the bar ready to go to a table, they grabbed it and ran it. If a differentwaiter saw an empty dish at a table, they grabbed it on their way by and dropped to the BOH. Just overall amazing job by management, the staff, in creating such a positive team environment.
Ok, food. Of course, we started with a bloomin' onion, delicious treat whenever got go. Alice Springs Chicken is just a classic, that cannot go wrong. Kids Mac-n-Cheese w/broccoli was great for the kids. Bland for adults but good cheese flavor for kids. It's also a good cheese to add the broccoli too. Kids Cheeseburger doesn't disappoint. And added fruit cup is nice balance 👌🏼
Overall, one of the best dinner outings we have had in a long time. Highly recommend this Outback location. High praise for the entire team there. Well done!

Update: they added a trio to the appetizers. 3 of our favorites: mozzarella boomerangs, cheese fries, and blooming onion. You get the right amount of each without the overload of one. Amazing 👏 🤩. This pic is a few minutes after we dove in. Forgot to snap a shot beforehand.“

“This comment is regarding Mark at Store 8546. My wife and I have been going to this location for the last 4 years. It is the only pizza place that we go to. The service from Mark is professional but also very friendly and welcoming. He walks to our table to check on us to see how we are enjoying our order. He shares his humor with interesting and fun stories. Mark is a great manager.“

“Walked in and sat at the bar, Clara was our server. Our food came quickly and was awesome. I had the Slawpy Pig which is pork bbq topped with slaw. Very tender great tasting sandwich. Clara was excellent and made our visit very enjoyable.“

“Had lunch on Monday. 5 stars not enough. Food, Service, and Atmosphere great. Special shout out to our waitress Lisa. You were amazing.“

“Absolutely love this place! The food and service is fantastic.“

“food poisoning? I ate the fishermans platter on October 10th and got very sick. Has anyone else experience this?“

“Out of town visitors, noticing a parking lot full of cars was a calling for us to stop. We were not disappointed the restaurant was full of charm and wonderful aroma. We were lucky enough to sit at the bar with locals and have the best female bartender! Forgot to mention…the pizza was amazingly good!“

“The cookies are amazing. I tried the chocolate chip, snickerdoodle and lemon so far. All are delicious. The red rooster knows how to make cookies and other treats! Highly recommend!“

“We dined there this evening. Wonderful food and very friendly people. They smoke their own meats with Black Jack wood and it is outstanding. Their sides are wonderful, just like mama meant them to be. There are other menu items besides BBQ, but that is their mainstay. The atmosphere is like home, very comfortable, and very positive signs in the restaurant dining area. These are very down-home people who know how to make your tummy happy. Super good place. Best BBQ anywhere around. We are from Texas originally where BBQ is king. This is better.“

“love the corned beef hash platter ! but everything is great“

“Its a brewery, and the beer is excellent. Why else would you go to a brewery?“

“Excellent service and food“

“Me and my wife had an awesome experience last night ! The food was great we both had the fish and chips and the baklava was to die for ! Our waitress name was Jessica she delivered excellent service . We had a wonderful time we will definitely be back !“

“Friendly staff, welcoming environment, and yummy frozen yogurt with fresh, abundant toppings! Family friendly, activities for kids and rotating flavors that will leave you coming back!! 😋 🍦“

“When you enter this cafe you get a good hometown feel and welcome. Not the big box franchise fast food vibe. Good basic breakfast freshly cooked. Non stop coffee refills - no need to ask as they continue to flow. Staff are genuinely friendly and happy to serve you. Prices are very reasonable (half of what I paid at another location for the same breakfast). I highly recommend you checking out the restaurant.

Parking: Plenty of free parking.“

“This was our first time here and we were not disappointed. We got the Grammy special for 2/3. Sliced chicken,pulled pork and ribs with green beans,collards ,mashed potatoes and potato salad. Cornbread too. ALL of it was very very good. The portion sizes are good too. We actually took some to go. Wish we had room in our stomachs for some blackberry cobbler. Next time for sure. I recommend this place 100 percent 😊“

“🌸 A Scoop of Kindness at Scooples 🍨 I want to share something that truly moved me. My mom, now in her 70s, is navigating the challenges of aging, health issues, and living far from the country she once called home. But one thing that brings her joy is coconut ice cream—because it reminds her of her childhood in Brazil, where her father owned a small ice cream shop. When the kind team at Scooples in Brownwood at The Villages heard this, they gifted her two pints of coconut ice cream—her favorite. To most, it’s just ice cream. To my mom, it’s a return to a time when she still had both her parents. A taste of comfort. A memory of joy. Thank you, Scooples, for your kindness. You didn’t just make her day—you gave her a moment of home. 💛 #Grateful #ScooplesLove #CoconutMemories #TheVillagesFL“

“Although I do like Toojays, I was quite surprised to eat there the other day with a new menu. I always go and get the stuffed cabbage which was so yummy. It has been taken off the menu. I went there yesterday specifically for them. Not sure how often I will go back now. Very disappointed!! Please bring them back!!“

“5+ stars to the City Fire restaurant and the amazing HOPE for a fantastic experience and great food. Our 14 year old Akita Wishy was warmly greeted and invited to join us at one of the outdoor patio tables. Hope was SO great with Wishy -- lots of water refills -- and finding out Hope loves dogs and that City Fire is so dog friendly just made our visit that much better. Oh and the French Dip and Burger we ordered were great -- and the Bourbon Sour -- perfect! We'll bring Wishy back for more fun soon -- and we'll be requesting one of Hope's tables for sure!“

“Always excellent food ,great atmosphere , timely and friendly service“

“We went to the Fiests Grande restaurant today (2-1-25). Somebody told the manager that my husband was stealing a cup that was on another table. My husband saw the cup and was showing me how cool it was (we are seniors and if my husband liked a cup that he saw he would have asked our server if the restaurant sold them, we do not have to steal. Nor were we dressed poorly.) So, the manager came over to us, and demanded to look in my husband's bag. I felt so bad for my husband! The look on his face! He was mortified! She did not find a cup, because my husband did not take anything. She embarrassed my husband and me in front of everyone. I approched the manager and told her she was out of line and she told me she had to protect her customers...well, my husband and I were also her customers, she didn't protect us from public humiliation! She also told me " I am Mexican, I know how it feels. I don't know what she meant by that. We will never visit that restaurant again, and probably won't go to Mt. Dora again either! Needless to say, our beautiful day was ruined.“

“This was my family's first time at Takis. The food was excellent and our server name Christine was really awesome we will be back.“

“Gio's is a gem. Relaxed and friendly. Great lunch menu. The salads are hearty and fresh made. Dinner is excellent and the pastries; don't go home without one! It's our go-to place when company comes because the food is aways great and our guests feel welcome and relaxed to enjoy the meal.“
