47 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Johnsburg

“Asia is amazing! This place is the best!“

“love this place the wings are good to“

“I want to begin by saying that we love this place. BUT, the service and food were just horrible. My husband's wings were good but my nachos were terrible. The lack of beef was covered up with lettuce and triple helping of sour cream. I left hungry. We usually stay for more than 1 drink, but I had to get out of there due to a very miserable child screaming for its mother to pay attention to her. Just an overall unpleasant experience.“

“This place is one of our favorite places in the area. Everyone who works there is amazing, knowledgeable, friendly, fun, they clearly love the work they do. The beer is awesome, I have my seasonal favorites but always find something good. Love the food trucks, special events, mug club, the vibes, the customers, the family friendly environment and my dog loves it there too!“

“First time coming here. Our server was Shane. That boy needs a raise! Best server we've had yet. As pescataririans we frequent different restaurants depending on what we have a taste for. We never had a place to order salmon ....until now. It was made to perfection with a tastefully made dill sauce.“

“Jackie and the team are fantastic! Everything here is house made! We had multiple sauces, meats, cornbread, chips and salsa, Mac n cheese and curry - all of which were enjoyed! I came here with multiple family members and clearly need to get back to sample dessert. They have good kids’ meal options plus a little gift area. Very clean and extremely nice service. Must try it all!“

“Been ordering for years , today's pizza was one of the best ones ever . Crust was excellent !“

“great specialty coffee and a lovely setting. You won't be disappointed!“

“Such a great menu and unique items! We tried as much as we could in one meal and will definitely be back. Our server Abbie was awesome.“

“This place is amazing! Craft cocktails made from scratch!! This is the place to be for the most delicious cocktails!!!“

“Best Mexican food you’ll love this place great service and super clean environment“

“Again 10/10 at Little Chef in McHenry for both food and service ❤️ never a bad item or experience there! Today - based on the owner's recommendation - we started with a cupl of their meat and veggie soup that did not make it on the official menu - sorry missed a photo of it - delish! 😍 Pork, chicken and beef in a savory broth chock full of veggies - carrots, celery, onion 🤤 followed that with the egg salad appetizer, one of our absolute favs 🤩 4 toasted rounds of bread with their excellent egg salad 👍 then we tried the new potato pancakes entree for the first time, which came topped with assorted grilled veggies, plus toast, eggs and hollandaise sauce.. we got the eggs scrambled, rye toast buttered, sauce on the side, and requested a side of sour cream. YUM 😋 ended up with the vanilla cake with vanilla frosting - sorry to miss a photo of that too. Awesome! Service was timely, water glasses attentively refilled, as was the coffee too. $31 Note: it was one order of each item as we always split 🤯 We also got 2 bloody Marys and 2 mimosas, plus a Bailey's, kahlua and amaretto mix to add to our coffee as a nightcap from Old Bridge Tavern next door $48 Left with no leftovers and completely satisfied, happy and full.“

“I have been to your restaurant three times first time had steak tacos ,second time ribeye burrito, tonight tampiquena dinner all three were delicious!!!! Don't change anything. You really have it going on!!!!!“

“disappointed in their lack of willingness to stand by their supposed convictions of supplying many forms of entertainment, then buckling under closed minded social pressure.“

“Great place to end a day and start the weekend“

“We tried Rusty Nail Saloon for lunch today. The soup was great, Walleye special was huge and cooked perfectly, and the rest of our meal was delicious. our server, Michelle, was quick, friendly, and attentive. We will definitely go back!“

“Excellent pizza! Excellent Sea Bass! Great value! Personable server!“

“Awesome place to eat and drink. Outside tables on the sand overlooking the water. Great service by Kylie.“

“Best shaved ice around! Or add a swirl of ice cream on top for a real treat!“

“Dog friendly. Lots of dogs. Good food. Great covered area. Sturdy chairs. Friendly dog lover waitresses“

“Stopped here for my first time ever by using the Too Good To Go app and was surprised to see all of delicious options they have. I will definitely be going back to try out their salads. I got the Waldorf chicken salad wrap and it was delicious.“

“Planning a weekend family gathering from one city to another is never easy—but discovering “Ode’s of Food” and working with Stephen made the process not only manageable, but truly enjoyable. Stephen was incredibly flexible, professional, and easy to work with. We were celebrating our grandma’s 90th birthday, and thanks to Stephen, a special occasion became even more memorable. He took the time to listen to our needs and requests, always responded with a positive attitude, and delivered more than we expected. His creative and delicious food preparations met everyone’s needs and expectations. We honestly couldn’t have picked a better person for the job. Thank you, Stephen—you were a delight to work with, and we’re already looking forward to seeing you again in five years for Grandma’s 95th!“

“Great vacation get away! Very clean had everything we needed. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back.“

“Tried the new menu item Gyros. Hope they keep it on the menu. They were great. The Tzatziki Sauce which makes a Gyro was perfect with enough cucumbers. We now have a new place to go to for Gyros. Last, I had just about everything on their menu and everything is delicious.“

“We have been going there for the last five years bragging about the hamburgers. Went there today order the hamburger it came out. Almost fully well done very poor quality. One asked If I could have gotten it rare was told menu says medium well. Meat was of a quality as if it was cooked earlier this week. Definitely will not be going back for hamburgers. Was told by the waitress No one will ask you how you want it done it says on the menu. We used to consider it best burger in town.“

“Cute place! Good food! It's way bigger than you think once inside. Love all the Christmas decor! Party room, dining room, gaming area, bar seating. Sunday band. Fast and friendly service. Very clean and spacious.“

“Love the Boosted Teas!! I try to stop as often as I can and I try to get my friends to try them.“

“Good food and the outside seating was good for a evening dinner. We highly recommend The Grove Pub and Grill.“

“Food excellent wonderful atmosphere“

“Guys pls don’t make fun of my Google account I made this account when I went through a weird phase. Anyways, Like and Colleen were amazing. My dumbass friend tried to exxagerate the story she was telling and ended up talking with her friends which led to her spilling her drink. However, luke and Colleen re made her a drink, and an extra cup of cold foam bc that’s why she spilled bc the lid was open due to licking the cold foam. Then Colleen came to action with a mop and cleaned it up. We are all happy and they are our best friends now because they helped out.“

“Cozy place to bring your family or have casual business meetings. Love their drinks !! So much better than Starbucks . All the gals are super friendly too! ✨“

“We had the pleasure to dine here multiple times. Best Pizza we have had. Owners and staff are very friendly. Hope to get there again someday!“

“Great Italian beef sandwich I’ve had in a long time. Although I’ve never had one with bell peppers. That was a communication error on my part. I thought sweet peppers would mean banana peppers (which I prefer) but the sweet bell peppers were a treat just as well. Not a bad place for a quick lunch. It’s not fast food, it’s food prepared fast, and tasty.“

“I’m not typically one to issue 5 star reviews. However, Buddy’z was on their A game on the night of 10/16/2025 and helped the wife and I celebrate our anniversary with two very tasty pizzas. We ordered a deep dish and a thin crust, both sausage, for delivery. Both pizzas were fantastic, had plenty of toppings, great taste, and they arrived quickly, despite having ordered a deep dish. It was actually a little nostalgic calling up a pizza place and placing an order. Not like these corporate pizza places that want everything done online via some Terminator on judgement day taking your order. Better yet? The woman who answered the phone knew what she was doing. I didn’t get the person on day 2 that was left alone on her own to hopefully survive.

I worked food service for almost 20 years in pizza so I know that everything just clicked last night. Now the only question that remains is consistency! Keep it up! We will see!

It all just gelled and it helped our anniversary be a great one.

Thanks buddyz. You’ll be seeing us again.“

“While in town for a funeral we stopped to have dinner with the family. Later that evening we realize a wallet had been lost. In addition to being 40 minutes away that night we live 5 hours away and this was a major inconvenience. The next morning on the way to the funeral home I made contact with the restaurant and asked that they check around for the wallet. After several IMMEDIATELY RETURNED messages, they found it! Of course this was a huge relief. In addition to being impressed with the quick response, concern and empathy for our situation…the dining experience was amazing. Great views. Comfortable seating for our large party and REALLY good food. Chrissy if you’re reading this, you are the reason I’ll be back again. 😍“

“Great gyro platter, enough for me and my HUNGRY boyfriend to share! Very friendly and courteous staff, highly recommend.“

“Amazing food and service!“

“Came here yesterday (Friday) around 8pm with my husband and 3 kids. Parking is on the side, there was stairs going up and stairs going to the balcony and stairs going to the patio, no signs where to go so we went through the patio and thought we should go inside so they can sit us down, we went up to the balcony and inside. It was pretty slow so we observed and thought its self order and sit anywhere. It was a young cashier, i asked her if the shrimp was boiled or fried and she said “you eat it raw” (looking at the pictures now they’re not raw) so i just bought an Italian beef, diablo burger (from its name i thought it was going to be spicy which is why we got it but it wasn’t at all ) chicken tenders and a plain cheese burger, all came with fries and spent $60 and $16 + tip for 3 drinks and beer at the bar. We took our food to the patio where there was a tent, First thing we saw was big spiders and no netting under the railing so I had to move the kids so they don’t accidentally fall off their chairs and into the water. It was dark, we didn’t see the ants on our table until we started eating.“

“best place ever an the workers awesome real nice food is amazing“

“Went here for the first time service was exceptional. They let us know today was mothers day in mexico which I loved it doesnt change anything but it was cute that they mentioned it to us. They stopped us on our way out to give me and my friend roses for mothers day. They were quick and on top of everything, very attentive. Two mom with two little ones was a challenge but they made us feel very welcome. The enchiladas were great 9.5/10 the quesabirria was ok 6.5/10 not my favorite I couldve order soemthing else but I was happy enough. Absolutely would go back again.“

“Phenomenal craft cocktails! Everything from my appetizer through desert was worth raving about. Staff was attentive and friendly. I will be a repeat customer for sure!“

“We have been here twice in the last month and I can't believe I'm just discovering what a great place this is. The food we've had has all been delicious. The staff has been very friendly as well. Prices are average. Would recommend for sure.“

“Great place and awesome sandwiches! Location was clean with a friendly and courteous staff. Sad to see reviews like the one posted December 2021, personal beliefs on such a controversial subject should be left out.“

“My last visits to this Tommy’s Red Hots on Friday, August 1st, 2025 was pretty much good. The second time I went in to eat my dinner. They were running a bit behind on making food but overall the experience was fine. The pizza is always delicious. The staff is so polite and respectful here. (Written 8-10-25)“

“Thanks, for just being open!! My husband and I were sitting down eating when an older gentleman (Ray) came in set his stuff down on table and went up to counter to order. Ray was informed that he was to place his order at the Kiosk. Ryan told cashier “I don’t know how to do that”. Young lady told Ray she was not allowed to come out and help him. Poor Ray was going to leave ( he really did not know how to order on kiosk). I went and helped him 😊 Ray was a happy camper with his meal ☺️☺️. Thanks again for being open!! Just feeling bad for the little older generation 😔 anything that can be done to help them with the kiosk ordering would be great. Thanks!!“
