50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Lake Barrington

“We stopped in for a late lunch. Got really lucky and missed the lunch crowd. Our waitress, Michelle, only had 2 tables to help so she was able to provide great service and some great conversation as well. The food is incredible. Overall, an awesome experience. I'll definitely be back. When you go, ask for one of Michelle's tables. She's awesome!“

“Delicious, fresh, healthy smoothies on a hot day were absolutely perfect. William made our daughter a minion milkshake (and secretly made it healthy without her knowing, which was perfect for our very picky eater), and our son enjoyed a taro boba tea with popping mango boba. Such a great find, and fabulous owner!“

“Vince and his crew do a great job and the Pizza is delicious- would recommend 100% of the time- and they serve RC Cola!“

“First time there. It’s a 30 minute drive, but we plan to go back. Best ingredients done to perfection. We have loved Lou Malnati’s , but this is equal to if not better. Our family agreed. They drove 1 1/2 hours and said they would come back“

We got the Mother’s Queen Set and there was plenty left over with 3 people. The meat was high quality and the banchan was also delicious. Worth the price. Our waiter Patrick was awesome! Can’t wait to come back again.“

The brownie topped with ice cream was so yummy.“

“I rarely eat out these days because it’s hard to find places that truly care about using quality ingredients, but this place blew me away! The food is absolutely delicious, and you can tell they take pride in what they serve. The Million Dollar Bacon is incredible—perfectly cooked and so flavorful. I can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu!“

“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.“

“The food in Bimbo restaurant is delicious , well prepared. Wish it was a little bit more variety of dishes with vegetables. Salads kind of boring, no eggplants dishes at all. About design of the rooms. One long room where we were sitting has no wall decor at all, one wall was from bricks and 3 walls dark color. One window with blinds which makes this room so dark if you want to close them from sundown of bright sun at 5 pm. Should be curtains or window shades for better protection. Please, hire a professional designer to improve your decor and atmosphere. We ordered sea bass dish , it was good , crusty a little bit but definitely not worthy $40 small piece of fish with 4 cherry tomatoes in a sauce. Calamari that we had for lunch before were too soupy, ate them with the spoon. Overall its good place to eat.“

“I had a really great experience here. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. She coached us through our options and everyone at the table had very different preferences and requests and she was incredibly patient and accommodating. Everyone enjoyed their drinks. We had a great first visit, and even got a tour of the facility. It made for a special experience, and I'll be returning in the future with friends for sure.“

“Many Oat milk ice cream options, and so many delicious flavors for ice cream, shakes, sundaes and shaved ice. Love that your dog gets to come into the restaurant and gets free ice cream. Chairs to sit inside or outside.“

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

“The atmosphere, food, and service were well worth the price! One of the best places to eat around Algonquin!“

“😀Great food, however, the “build your own burger“was a disappointment. The onions tasted bitter and very salty. I got the worst case of heartburn from this burger! OMG. Otherwise, everything else is top quality! Be careful when ordering this “build your own burger.”🍔 I’ve never tasted onions so bad, and seem to be imbedded into the meat that tasted so bitter and awful salty. Too bad because in my opinion, all other dishes are superb! Susan Lee Dzialo“

“We love Cary Dairy so much!“

“GREAT food! The double slaw burger was amazing (and no Cole slaw like I was thinking). The onion rings were delicious and very generous portions. I look forward to going back soon.“

“Small little place with SO MANY options. Love it here! Even when we come in close to closing the staff is friendly and helpful and makes our orders correctly and lets us take our time deciding what we want. Cute place with a few seats inside and more outside. Will be back soon!“

“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.“
