50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Evanston

“best service! And delicious chocolate pie!“

“Best Pizza in Evanston. The dough, the unique ingredients. I. Am.Hooked👌“

“Amy Morton doesn't know me at all. We live 235 miles away and we are not able to dine at her restaurant anytime soon. Nevertheless, we sent a blind inquiry looking for information on a performer who appeared at Found Kitchen 3 years ago. Our inquiry is never going to make any money for Amy, we know that and she knows that. Altho she could have blown off our request, she had her staff reach out to us the next day with all of the contact info we possibly could need....because she's an awesome business person and a great restaurenteur! Every restaurant comes up short on the quality of an entree from time to time, water glasses might not get refilled as rapidly as a Yelp reviewer might want......it happens. We wanted to share with your FB viewers our experience with Amy's staff and let you all know how much we appreciate her and her dedication to customer service.“

“Chipotle meets Subway, excellent! Quality food which I come to expect and with more options. I had the burrito and chips w/salsa and an unsweetened ice tea. I’ll be back with my family. The staff was personable and informative. The place was spotless. Everything I want in a restaurant.“

“lamb chops are amazing!!!“

“Delicious food and awesome atmosphere and staff!“

“I recently visited a fantastic brunch spot, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The food was absolutely delicious, offering a perfect start to the day. The staff were incredibly friendly and provided excellent service throughout my visit. The restaurant’s location was ideal, especially on such a beautiful day, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great brunch.“

“The hours are great in case u wake up in the middle of night they are convenient. I love my chicken alfredo pizza..“

“The food sounded fancy and tasted SO good! Our server, Andrew, came up with the most delicious drinks! Superb service! We’ll be back!!“

“This place rules. Delicious deli style food. The chopped cheese is so good, comparable to one from NYC. I come here just for the chopped cheese but the breakfast sandwiches and other deli sandwiches are excellent as well. Service and staff are friendly and accomodating.“

“my best friend and I just had the BEST experience at the whale! Our waitress taylor was incredible and the manager (so sorry but we never got his name because he was just being so nice to us) was incredible as well. We will definitely return with friends and recommend anyone to try it out! classy, but not snobby, cool decor, warm kind and accommodating staff, and great food and cocktails are just the cherry on top! try the carrot cake after your meal :) Thank you again to taylor and the manager again <3“

“Being from the suburbs traveling downtown can be an experience. This particular experience made our day. Moving our daughter into DePaul we came upon the owner of Red Light chicken who gave us a few pointers in parking near his establishment, after taking the time to help us find a spot he happily welcomed us with a free chicken sandwich which I’m happy to report was delicious. It was nice meeting you tonight and I’ll be certainly stopping by again - Fries are a game changer to!!!“

“I love this place, they have the best pitas in the city. Hands down. They’ve gone through I think 3 chefs in recent years as our waiter was explaining. But we both had the steak Laffa sand which and fries. 10/10 from both of us. It’s a sandwich I could eat daily. Tbh I feel like they gave too many fries, but they’re still really good, and the mango curry sauce mayo thing they give is unique, punchy and bright. We thought it was a curry mustard but it’s actually a mayo (I think).

We also learned you can buy the pita in bulk which is a game changer.“

“This place is the coolest bar I have been to in a long time, hip and fun but not pretentious. They paid attention to every detail when building and designing. The white marbel bar has clean lines and looks fresh. All of the hardware finishes look sharp and clean. The patio is large and inviting with a fire place and plenty of tables to sit at. The drink menu is creative and refreshing and the staff is kind and welcoming. I cannot say enough good things about this gem of a bar. I am excited to hang out this fall on the patio by the fireplace with good drink in My hand.“

“I'm from Iowa, took a little weekend trip to Chicago. A friend told us we HAD to try Lula's. SO thankful we did. I will be traveling back to Chicago just to take my mom here. Outstanding service from every single employee, incredible food, and just overall 10/10. Absolutely recommend.“

“The food was great. The wait staff was courteous and professional.“

“Dedication and information is very supportive.“

“good food and good service“

“Incredible shop! The people are kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. They make sure you're happy with everything, and the place is extremely beautiful as well. The stock is incredible and very visually intuitive. I'm so happy to have found this place with these awesome humans and will definitely be back!“

“Morton Grove location. Horrible customer service. Lost a lot of business like that.“

“I awoke this morning, filled with regret and resentment. I nearly stayed under my supple, cozy sheets. Yet, I prevailed. I stumbled upon this Elegant establishment. I needed something greasy and practical for a hangover. I also needed to watch the Minnesota gophers beat up Rutgers (do they even have a mascot)? I ordered the double smash burger, and went to work. The service was quick, very quick, which made me believe the burger would be subpar. My first bite awoke me. I was so back. Every following taste left me with childlike joy, much like a young Jack Slunecka frolicking through the South Dakota prairies. I can not recommend this establishment more. Thank you Parlay, not only for giving me strength. But, giving me the motivation to carry on, and make the world a better place. I Love you so so much.“

“Eravamo in 4 a cena e siamo rimasti soddisfatti sia del cibo che del servizio . Il locale era pieno di gente ma la cameriera Maria ci ha serviti velocemente e in maniera simpatica e professionale. Le pizze che abbiamo mangiato sono state ottime. Ristorante consigliato.“

“I have gone to Andros Taverna for many years now where I am never disappointed and always impressed with the service, the quality of food and ingredients, the atmosphere and the passion in general. Chef Doug Psaltis is a true expert and artist performing at the highest levels. The gyros are the best, best gyros in Chicago by far, the seafood world class, the homemade bread and pita are incredible. The foods and meats are cooked over wood fire, wood fire grilled. We had our daughters baptism catered from here which was excellent assortment of Greek food - this is a Greek restaurant you will go to for many years to come.“

“We understand why it’s named Gretel… if you’re wondering where Hansel is, he starved to death waiting for his burger. To be fair, it’s one of the best burgers you can get in Chicago BUT you should not come here if you have any other plans that evening. It took 30 minutes longer to be seated than they initially told us (over an hour and a half total). Once we were seated, pretty sure the waiter forgot about us at our table, but it didn’t really matter because the vibes were high 👌🏼 The drinks were great, but consider bringing your own because you’ll grow a five o’clock shadow waiting for your next round. The host, Jonah, was the shining star of the evening and was truly hilarious. But our waitress kept trying to argue that “well” and “well done” were different levels of doneness, so that was annoying (and slightly concerning). Overall, the food was phenomenal, but it was a very slow experience - the antithesis of “fast” food.“

“Great food, family friendly!“

“Enjoyed my first Hot Toddy here!!“

“Delicious food with very fresh ingredients“

“great staff, super attentive & extremely friendly. thanks Neil ! highly recommend the tuna dish !“

“Love this new local coffee shop! I'm always on the lookout for a good independently owned coffee shop and this is at the top of my list. The iced coffee is amazing - the flavor has a slight sweetness to it which sets it apart from a lot of other brews I've had. The inside is small but has plenty of seating, so a great place to get studying/work done (plus free - reliable - wifi). The icing on the cake is that their mission is to support local shelter dogs - 50% of sales on their merchandise goes to Friends of Chicago Animal Care and Control. The dog-themed decor is also adorable. Highly recommend!!!“

“loved everything about it!“

“Don't let the fact that its in a gas station fool you! Best Chilaquiles east of the Chicago River!“

“Delicious food & great menu. The service is top notch! The Italian beef is a favorite of mine when visiting from Cincinnati. 🙂“

“Great food/drinks Great service Great prices We will be back.“

“Honestly, a great bar with good beer. It loses a star because almost every night, one of their bartenders sits outside and very loudly revvs his motorcycle before leaving. I live very close and it is very disturbing. If someone in marketing sees this review please tell him to be more considerate.“

“We love Malaysian food especially Peranakan! The portions are American hahaha but it's okay. The Char Kway Tiau, Nasi Lemak, Satay, Ayam Masak Merah etc., etc., etc. Just great food and the owner engages with patrons. Oh yes, Chili Crabs finger licking good“

“they have good food and their plats are vary big and good staff“

“We had a delicious breakfast and the service was Excellent. Looking forward to coming back for lunch and mock tails.“

“Great Custard, hot dogs, & Service!“

“Amazing place! We're lucky to live walking distance from it, and me and my wife are regulars here. My go-to's are: sausage biscuit, chicken pot pie, s'mores pie, chocolate pecan pie, but you can't really go wrong with anything you order!“

“Very good food. I highly recommend this place.“

“Chilled out hang out place with a fantastic selection of brews. Dogs are welcome indoors too, which is great as the temperature outside gets lower. You could also bring in food from elsewhere. I highly recommend this place if you are in the mood to spend some time outside with your two/four legged friends while sipping some delicious beers!“

“Great vibe! Happened upon it while in Chicago - highly recommend!“

“We are neighbors to Lusha and very grateful for that so we can return often! Pizza is fresh, hot and with a crispy-yet-doughy crust. Desserts are made by the (very friendly) Italian owner and not to be missed. A great go-to in Lakeview for some 5 star pizza!“

“Best coffee shop in IL, hands down. Pastries on point and rotate often. Espresso is always dialed in excellently. Been coming here since 2022 & never done me wrong, not once. Drew behind the bar has immaculate vibes among his other great baristas! Patio is a great spot too! Love the umbrellas!!!

Cocktails are bomb too, espresso martini & carajillo were awesome! HH from 3-6 has great beer choices!“

“If you are looking for old school Italian with a modern flare, this is the place!“

“Great neighborhood spot for delicious freshly made Italian Ice! Lots of interesting flavors and yummy ice cream too!“

“Delicious fresh donuts, carefully packed and the orders are always right. Fantastic service. The people that work there are always so nice. Such a great place.“

“Came in with a friend who had never had boba before. The owner(?) recommended her a flavor and offered to make her a different kind if she didn't like it. She had brown sugar, I had taro, and my wife had a caramel latte boba. All were delicious! We also got the mini pancake bites which were fantastic. The owner(?) was super nice and gave us free water as well. If it wasn't a 40 minute drive for us we would be here all the time!“

“Lovely place. Good staff. Yummy food“

“My wife and I went there for the date night special and it was fantastic. We aren’t really big Indian food fans, but we definitely liked what we tried and would definitely go back again.“
