50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Northbrook

“amazing food and awesome staff!!“

“We have discovered this place 3 years ago when we are searching for an outdoor casual dining. What we found was a great place that had outdoor seating on a deck patio with umbrellas and a TV set to watch sporting events. The service was friendly, and the food was great. The drinks were very reasonable. The menu was large having everything from sandwiches to dinners. We never had a bad experience there and brought family and friends to enjoy the evening sitting outside. We always come back.“

“It was an amazing experience. Service and food just perfect… gracias por una experiencia tan grata.“

“Best pizza in town.“

“This restaurant has the best rose tteokbokki I've ever had! The bulgogi and ramen are also delicious! The staff is very patient and will guide you through your menu selections. If you don't like your food too spicy, they will also adjust it to your liking. Very cute spot. Wonderful for date night.“

“Tonight we had filet the 16oz NY strip both crown meals. Loved them both. I can't ever say anything bad about the chef we had. He was amazing! Gerald is hands down the most talkative and excellent cook. His food always tastes great and he never gets annoyed if you have requests.“

“Delicious, big portions, great service.“

“Everything is delicious! Everyone is courteous and it's very clean and comfortable. Bring the whole family if your craving flavors. Come here often. Chicken is delicious. Chocolate cake out of this world!!!!“

“I travel to the area for work and always love coming here! ♥️♥️“

“Bluegrass Restaurant is a wonderful, family-owned restaurant. We have been ordering takeout and eating in since we came to Highland Park three years ago. The owners take pride in managing the restaurant on a daily basis. They prioritize customer service, great food, and a warm, welcoming experience. Last night, they hosted the Highland Park/Highwood Professional Moms group. We had only expected 15 women to attend, but 25 women ended up coming. The owners and the staff were AMAZING. They brought over additional chairs. They provided us with top-notch service, including separate checks. They respected us when we were speaking to the group and quietly took orders in the background. I can't say enough nice things about this restaurant.“

“Can easily be my new go-to spot for pho. Tasty pho ga (chicken pho). Paid cash, but didn’t get coins back as part of the change, so I took off one star. They also accept card.

Plenty of free parking available in the lot next to the restaurant.“

“First , the smoke and aroma comin’ out the roof exhaust pipes . Lol 😛 Known for their hamburgers , dogs , apparently everything else on their menu is good .

Pretty darn good ! 9.0/10 Sweet n hot , dipped , nice crinkly fries 🍟 comin’ for da ride , and a tamale 🫔 to wash it down . Nice job guys at the PP in Des Plaines !!!“

“Their wine selection was from around the world, food was delicious, & service was impeccable. I highly recommend it.“

“Kandy Krush Melt was an absolute delight! The service was top-notch from the moment we walked in — warm, friendly, and super attentive. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and felt welcome. The food? Simply amazing. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the presentation was beautiful too. You can tell they put real love into everything they do. We left full and happy. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great vibes, great people, and even better food!“

“I literally had the best pancakes I’ve ever had“

“This pizza is so good! I wish they were open more often“

“About 2 years ago, I re-established my health journey. After starting our family, we fell into many poor nutritional habits. Paying attention to macros and the food choices was hard….until the wonderful team at Steel Fitness Cafe helped realign us! Our biggest issue with healthier eating….flavor and options. At Steel Fitness Cafe, those worries completely dissolved! Want a great tasting protein shake that is ENJOYABLE??? Well then you are going in luck with the plethora of options here! Caramel Waffle Cone and Cinnamon Toast Crunch are two of my favorites! Need a meal that will fill you up AND make you feel good? They have those too! I helped myself to the Steak and Eggs! When Chef travels, he brings some of that cuisine back home for new meals! Have a sweet tooth but hate the fact that your favorite sweet treats contribute to being unhealthy? Well, their protein donuts WILL hit the spot. You won’t believe the macros until you try it! Here is the elevator pitch……JUST GO AND TRY THEIR STUFF! You WILL NOT regret it!“

“Nice ice cream shop and a bonus as they have entertainment“

“Wild Pita Mediterranean Grill is a standout spot that combines freshness, flavor, and friendliness in every meal. The food is absolutely delicious—from the perfectly seasoned shawarma and tender kebabs to the fresh salads, fluffy pita, and creamy hummus. Every bite tastes vibrant and authentic, and it’s clear the ingredients are top-notch and prepared with care.

The staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, always greeting customers with a smile and making sure orders are just right. Service is fast and efficient, whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout, and the portions are generous without being overpriced. The restaurant itself is clean, modern, and comfortable—perfect for a casual lunch or dinner.

Wild Pita has that rare mix of quality, consistency, and warmth that keeps you coming back. It’s the kind of place where everything—from the food to the service—feels thoughtfully done. Without question, it deserves a full five stars.“

“Absolutely delicious food perfect customer service Decent prices very clean place“

“Omar gave great service! Good was very good (ravioli with tomato cream). Good for kids too!“

“Free Valet to start our experience here was a pleasant surprise and much appreciated. Hostess was very friendly, and our server Jose was thorough and had such a positive energy. Everyone chips in to help keep the table clean, waters refilled, etc. We truly had an amazing experience and would recommend to anyone looking for an Italian gem!“

“Muy bueno muy limpio mucha amabilidad del personal ricos desayunos“

“🔥 Highly Recommended! Flame On Peri Peri is hands down one of the best spots for flavorful, juicy peri peri chicken! The spice levels are just right, the portions are generous, and the service is fast and friendly. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or dining with family, this place never disappoints. Don’t miss the loaded fries and their signature sauces — 10/10!“

“The food and service were wonderful!! Whoever was in charge of the music played a very very listenable selection of the blues. Perfect for the occasion and for enjoying an evening with family Thanksgiving for all of that....👍👍👍👍“

“Food was very good. Server was pleasant and available whenever we needed. Very nice atmosphere. Beer selection is fantastic.“

“Amazing service ! Bar tender Jimmy was absolutely great. My boyfriend and I stopped by for a quick drink and soup before the movies and had a Good time thanks to him!“

“Yummy beer, welcoming atmosphere!“

“I had to try it today before going back to FL delicious 😋.“

“Had the wonderful opportunity to enjoy breakfast at this fun little Cafe. Right off of Rand rd by Tony's Market in Arlington heights. Had the Popeye Benedict so yummy perfectly poached eggs and fresh fruit so tasty. Definitely worth atleast one visit but you'll find that won't be enough.“

“Ate there for the first time tonight. I am vegan and my husband is an Omni. Chef Bill came out and waited on us personally, and gave us menu recommendations, all of which were delicious! The ambiance was so relaxing and peaceful; it was a nice respite from a busy day and I didn’t want to leave. Reasonably priced as well: shared appetizer, two teas, two entrees, and two desserts was $60. Will definitely be back for many more dinners!“

“Awesome place✅️ Great People ✅️ delicious Smoothies 😋 Definitely a must👍“

“This coffee shop has the best atmosphere - inside AND outside! The inside was very clean and modern. Baked goods (cinnamon) were fresh and delicious as was the hot chocolate! Friendly staff.
The outside was my favorite part: Great for people-watching (large corner lot). Heaters were installed ON the awnings, which covered the entire table, and not just on a tall pole on part of the table. The best part was the doggy Biscuit Bar - awesome, varied dog treats and water on an outdoor cart. See photos
This coffee shop has thought of everything!!!“

“Do I recommend this place? Yes, but depending on who is bartending. It’s never a good feeling to over hear a bartender call you derogatory names when you’re feet away from them- great way to lose “regulars” / consistent business.“

“I am a regular and love the street corn tots and loaded hush puppies. Please keep them. Love the beer though!“

“Absolutely love Tala. I firstly want to emphasize how friendly the staff is. They've helped me many times as a new-to-coffee drinker and are always very accommodating. The menu features many classics but their specials menu is where it's at, and rotates throughout the year. But their matcha is the best and has officially made me a matcha lover. Also love their small but delicious baked goods options, which include gluten free muffins! Great atmosphere, plenty of seating, and typically quiet atmosphere with easy parking, but can get quite busy at peak times, especially weekends.“

“I’ve been going to Minellis for years, they have the best Italian sausage, and great quality meats in general. Their homemade sauces are amazing! They also have a great Italian sub! Try them you won’t be disappointed 😊“

“Overall it was nice, they did keep messing up our order and not bringing our stuff, and when I went to pay the cc wasn't working, but I feel like these are all problems that will be fixed in time, overall a fun place that O would like to try again once it's better established“

“Food was delicious! It was my first time going to Yeero Revolution and it was exactly what I was looking for.
The spicy chicken and lamb were perfect, the Greek fries taste like how they should, and everything was fresh. I will definitely go back to get more.
The owner was also extremely nice (and Greek!). His passion and hard work for the restaurant is in the food and you can definitely taste the difference in the quality of how good the food is.
Would absolutely recommend anyone going.“

“The food was great and the service excellent. Don’t judge this place by the outside it is very nice inside. Check it out for yourself your will glad you did.“

“Good 👍 food yummy 😋 good Customer service“

“Great place. Very friendly staff.“

“This place sports a cozy brick-and-mortar ambiance. They carry a truly unique selection of craft beers including a refreshingly tart apple ale. The service is top-notch and friendly. Not even the passive-aggressive patron sitting next to me could ruin my time here. I would definitely come back again.“

“We hosted my husband’s 50th birthday last weekend there and I can’t say enough good things!!! From start to finish an incredible experience and so much fun! I plan events for a living and working with Ma O’Briens was the easiest, most helpful and amazing experience.“

“Plenty of parking in back with rear entrance. Indoor and outdoor seating. Seated quickly. Beautiful interior with high top and regular height seating. Our server was polite and knowledgeable. The food came out quickly and accurately.
Bathrooms are clean.“

“The best coffee shop in Highland Park/Deerfield area! Best customer service and perfect atmosphere for work meeting, reading a book or grabbing coffee with a friend!“

“This is a small cute restaurant where the food and service are so good, it gets crowded, so reservations are recommended. The food is American Bistro, and it is perfect for a fancy date or celebration of 4 people or less if some chatter noise doesn't bother you. I'll always go back, and I like their blue cheese hamburger.“

“Stopped here on a whim, and I’m very glad that I did! Bit of a small indoor and outdoor seating area but cozy and authentic vibes nonetheless. More importantly, the food is top notch! The carne asada burrito was one of the best that I’ve had around in the northwest suburbs. The steak was perfectly grilled, juicy and flavorful, and the best part being there was plenty of it inside the burrito! If you’re looking for fresh, homemade, authentic Mexican food that won’t break the bank in the northwest suburbs then Taqueria El Comalito is a must try!“

“perfect foods...great decorations.. nice price...“

“Very Delicious and Tasty 😋“
