50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Wilmette

“Went here on a whim. They did not disappoint!! Ordered the Big Earl and shared it and we still didn’t finish it!! Everything was great, food and service.“

“#1 Sushi place for me. SO FRESH and delicious 😋. The quality here is top notch, from the to-go sushi in the fridge to the specialized sushi you can order at the counter. I especially loved the hand rolls because they were huge and so fresh. There are so many options for specialty rolls, maki, poke, and vegetarian options as well. I also tried the mochi for dessert and it was so good. Whenever I crave quick sushi I think of this place. Such a great place in the north shore for easy sushi for reasonable price and amazing taste! 🍣🍨🍙 Just from the pictures you can tell this quality is superb.“

“Food and service is always wonderful and we were not disappointed this time. Our server answered in detail questions on the specials menu and his timing with courses was spot on. The food, as usual, was outstanding with all entrees done perfectly. Can't wait to return!!“

“First time having jersey mikes. Really enjoyed the tuna but in bowl form. Ingredients were fresh and tasty. Tuna salad had good flavor too. Had it delivered. Just upsetting that I had specifically requested the unsweetened pure leaf iced tea and instead got the lemon flavor which has sugar in it. I am diabetic and although I received a credit from door dash it doesn’t quite resolve the bigger picture. Left without a proper drink because the order wasn’t followed. I did not receive a call which I would’ve expected if the flavor was out of stock.“

“Great pizza! Make sure to check out the salads and the homemade gnocchi“

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

“Came upon this restaurant from a recommendation by the show store clerk at Alamo two blocks away. Amazing food. What a gem. The falafel was so so good and the danish pastry filled with meat and cheese was out of this world delicious. We had something Falafal Lala or something like that. Sorry I am probably butchering the name. Really loved the taste .there were small potatoes in a garlick sauce that was a new tangy taste that I loved“

“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!!!!“

“good food and good service“

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

“Celebrated my wife’s birthday here with three other families, as we were in Chicago between baseball tournaments. Not only was Coda di Volpe able to accommodate a same day reservation for a large party, but they went above and beyond, from personalizing menus with a birthday wish, to adding a special touch on dessert. With four teenage boys in tow, the menu provided ample carbs and comfort for them while we enjoyed a broad sample of the offerings - all were very happy with their meals! Cocktails and wine selection was also on the mark. Kudos to Jeremy and his staff. We came all dressed in white and he told us he knew he wanted to do something special for our party… they knocked it out of the park! Looking forward to coming back to Chicago and making a beeline for this restaurant… a no-brainer.“

“I tried the pizzas last night. We had 4 different kinds and they were honestly soooo delicious! Can’t wait for you to open! This is GREAT pizza!!!“

“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.“

“Dedication and information is very supportive.“

“Great food, family friendly!“

“Great atomosphere cool concept like how they call out the alcohol and food orders when Ready. The pimento Mac was great flavor, as was the mashed and gravy. Very unique to have boneless breast thighs wing and leg portions battered and fried. Was very good. I just think the sauces were way to pricey at $1.45 a sauce wow even 99 cents seems a lot but would feel better lol. At least give one with the order or reduce the sauce price. But overall they need to spread this concept into more areas for sure out side like in the suburbs“

“The food, drinks, service and recommendations were excellent. We were celebrating a birthday, and everything from the Oaxacan tlayuda to the Cornish hen with mole and the margaritas made with mezcal from the owners’ hometown in Oaxaca made for a great meal.“

“A young lady named Samantha (POSC) was very welcoming, courteous, and patient. She had a smile at all times.I have a stomach condition and she offered alternatives which helped me feel understood. I wish we had many other Samantha's as cashier because people like her really make a difference!!! It is my first time and I want to come back!!!!“

“A great new spot for brunch! My husband and I went and it was busy but we were able to sit right away. I'm gluten free and I LOVE that everything is labeled with an easy to read GF symbol so it helps me identify what I can and can't eat. The gluten free buttermilk pancakes were excellent. My husband had the corn beef skillet and he said his bloody mary was great as well! We'll definitely be back! Felisa was super friendly and made sure to answer my questions about gluten precautions.“

“Hexe is a Chicago based roaster offering a unique gothic aesthetic and inspired food and pastry options. The 'Evil Friends' roast is a staple in my home espresso setup, and the Lanthrop Homes based location is an excellent spot to check out, especially in the fall.“

“Really good and fresh sushi at great prices. Love this place.“

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

“Solid crispy thin crust! Buy by the slice to satisfy a quick craving, or order a whole (small/medium/large) pizza. Pasta sauce and dessert pies are also delicious! The place is no frills, so don't expect fancy silverware. Terrific add to the neighborhood!“

“We always look forward to takeout (during COVID) and look forward to seeing you in person. Pizza is always fantastic!!! Always!“

“Ordered the spring rolls, beef bulgogi and a chicken noodle dish (I do not recall the name) - all were delicious - even the 3rd time around.

Short wait time, ambient lighting, and kind staff.

Thank you for a delicious meal. 🌻“

“I LOVE Side Practice Coffee. The atmosphere and ambience create the perfect place to chill with a fantastic cup of coffee. The staff and customers are super friendly. I come here to write in my journal or plan out my projects for the week. I always feel inspired here.“

“Friggin *phenomenal* !! 🍻
The beers are awesome pretty much across the board, and the inside is all exposed brick and coziness - definitely makes you want to sit a spell and tip a few beers back.

I absolutely love that Maplewood now has *hop water* 🙌🏼 (several hop water flavors to choose from, actually) and a bunch of infused seltzers to choose from, in addition to the beer and spirits.
And I *adore* that Maplewood loves pugs!! I’ve yet to meet a pug there for some scritches over a brew, but we all gotta have goals amirite?? 🤭🐶

Fave beer of the day 2025 - Morbidly Obese Pug (Chocolate Mousse) 👌🏼😍🍻
It was straight choco pudding ✨ magic“

“A must try spot! Great food, coffee and atmosphere! Definitely recommend!“

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

“OMG -- familiar to Indian tastes & flavors, but with its own flair! Mustard Chicken pairs great with Naan or Paratha. Nicest owner too! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“LOVE Smack Dab!! I live in RP and walking to Smack Dab always makes my day. The coffee is amazing. The vibes are so cute and so are the folks that work there. Recommend 100/10.“

“I ordered the gluten free deep dish stuffed pizza and let me tell you, BEST GLUTEN FREE PIZZA I HAVE EVER HAD. CRIED TEARS OF JOY BECAUSE IT WAS THAT GOOD. 10/10, CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH.“

“The food, atmosphere, and the staff were amazing! We celebrated my nephews birthday there and I can't wait to go back and bring some friends!“

“best service! And delicious chocolate pie!“

“Katie was our server and omg she was amazing. Half of our group was a lil buzzed from the cubs game and she handled it like a pro!!! Food was amazing but the service was better!! We will come back because of her!! Thank u Katie!!“

“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.“

“Lovely place. Good staff. Yummy food“

“we came here because of tiktok and went to the field museum afterwards!

i have a very low tolerance and hardly ever indulge (due to not liking how anxious id get). a huge thank you to the super kind employee that not only educated us on delta 8 but also recommended i add cbd to my lemonade—it gave me a much better experience! definitely plan on coming back! ✌️“

“I came in from out of state and I loved this place. My favorite bar in the neighborhood that I got to visit. Went back a couple times throughout my visit. They even changed one tv for me to watch my OKC Thunder game. Thank you for making me feel welcome.“

“We had lunch here today, and loved everything! Roberto, our server, was the best! Super friendly. Brisket sandwich was fab! Best potato salad I've ever had! Can't wait to go back!“

“This place. Wow. Like a well-oiled pastry machine. I have gone there sporadically over the past couple years but really buckled down and started committing to every Sunday these past few weeks. lol. The variety is just astounding and the quality is second to none. I always have the intention of leaving with 2 or 3 things but so far haven't managed to leave with less than 9 or 10 at each visit. Take my money!!!!!!“

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

“Thank you for being so accommodating to our group tonight… we appreciate you moving us outside and back in with the rain. The food hit the spot and we will definitely be back to try more of what you have to offer! Welcome to the neighborhood!“

“The food is made fresh and so delicious.“

“Great Custard, hot dogs, & Service!“

“We were in Chicago for a couple days from Austin, Indiana, and stopped in at Pat’s for dinner based off of the great reviews and it did not disappoint! The food was amazing and excellent service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food is all homemade ... chilliques are so good with red sauce To die for... The burgers are HUGe.... so delicious.... the fries are like no others and I personally never order fries. So they have to be good.... I did substitute the salad for the fries and was blown away how tasty it was... I mean I'm talking salad right!! Please come visit this beautiful restaurant and tast the real homemade goodness.“

“Tonight, the Wife and I asked for a table of 4, saw multiple tables open. Host replied with "Looks like we're not going to have table free for the rest of the night." Our 2 friends walked in about 5 minutes after us for a table, Host proceeds to not automatically deny them and asks the servers. Servers apparently had a problem with having another table until another server came worked it out. Finally, Wife and I walk back in to join our friends and overhear 2 servers discussing with the host about not seating anyone after 9pm (they close at midnight btw) Great to know that you wanting to close early is more important than actually doing your jobs and making easy money (we only got drinks and 2 apps) Pathetic, will not come back. Sayonara!“

“I won't rate the food because it's only snacks. They do have menus from nearby restaurants though, which is really cool.

This is a wonderful cocktail bar. The bartenders are really good at what they do. I think Luke is usually working when I go there? He is really good at what he does and super fun to watch. Very precise and intentional with the way he makes drinks.

I always feel very welcome and relaxed here. It is sort of strange that it is in the base of an apartment complex. I think if I lived here I would be a bit weirded out by all of these strangers in the lobby of my building.

It's nice to get drinks and then go wherever in the lobby, at the bar, or out in the back patio area of the building.

Trivia on Wednesdays is always fun as well.“

“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!“
