50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Dorchester

“Absolutely love this place and it’s staff! The ice cream is delicious and there is a huge selection of flavors. The ice cream sandwiches are to die for. They are made with homemade cookies, so delicious. Maggie is crushing it! The owner Matthew is so kind and friendly and openly invites suggestions! **Allergy friends, they keep all nuts separate from everything else in the back. We were very pleased. We’ve already made two trips this week!!“

“An rat ngon👍👍😀cac ban oi. Mom nao cung ngon het“

“Love the food it so good !“

“Delicious delicious delicious. The rice was the perfect texture and intense of the flavor of true fresh chicken broth. The service was very friendly and quick, too. And to top it off the decor is cleanly contemporary. Bravo! I hope nyc gets one asap too!“

“I can't believe I hadn't been here sooner!! Stopped for take out for the first time this week and service was quick, warm and friendly.

I beelined it for the BIRRIA TACOS which had excellent reviews online and I now agree and award Dora's with the OVERALL BEST COMBO AWARD (if there was one 😂).

Amazing. Filled (yes, filled) with juicy meat, no meat fat to ruin a random bite of your food, cheese and all other simple, delicious goodness. Then, the consume is actually perfectly tasty 😭 you'll want to dip your tacos in it constantly just bc you couldn't possibly think of letting it go to waste!

Looking forward to many returns 😉

P.s. Sweet plantains on the side is the cherry on top 😋“

“This restaurant is an absolute gem. Everything was amazing. We had great service and terrific recommendations for dinner from them. The bone in pork chop was delicious and so much food I took half home. 100% recommend going there and we can't wait to go back.“

“This is my go-to coffee shop every single day! I live a 2 minute walk from Sugar Bowl and the first time I tried it, I was a bit unsure. I got hot chocolate the first time but after that I started trying their coffees. The almond joy is the best. Ava (the barista) is a fantastic worker and super friendly, and Kathy (one of the owners) is super nice and hardworking 😊 I love this place!“

“Popular VN bubble tea place at Adams St and Park in Dorchester (Boston). With a good variety of VN speciaty sweet drinks and smoothies, pancakes and other side dishes. Clean, bright with some tables for dining in. Prices start at $6 USD for a small drink to $9, $10+ for large size. They have reward points for all their shops in the franchise.“

“Went for the first time and everything was great!!“

“Piatti buoni e curati , cucina meditteranea ben interpretata“

“The additional noodle option was very worth it (nearly doubles the amount) and the soup base for the Umami Ramen is delicately seasoned and has a rich taste. Crew was also extremely friendly and helpful, a flawless experience for the price point.“

“Yummy! And dog friendly patio.“

“This restaurant was exceptional!!!! The food was authentic, flavorful and delicious. The corn cakes were amazing. Price and service were excellent. We thought it was just take out and were pleasantly surprised to see about 20 people could sit down. If I lived here, this would be my GO TO! Thank you for a great food experience.“

“visiting from California and my son brought us here for brunch. OMG, the food was fabulous and service was exceptional. I was very impressed by the waitress. she took our order without writing down and got everything correct. five star rating“

“Absolutely delicious in it’s perfect simplicity!“

“Loved the Texas brisket sandwich. Delicious. Nice atmosphere.“

“This was the best night out I’ve had with my husband in a long time. The food was spectacular- I suggest the mezze platter so you can try everything, and of course the koshari. The mushroom fritters they had as a special were divine. The atmosphere and quality of service were top-notch and we will absolutely be coming here regularly.“

“10/10 experience! Great coffee and breakfast. Love the vibe of the atmosphere!“

“Food: I thought the broth rivaled a lot of other popular options in Chinatown/Allston. The spicy options were my favorite and complemented many of the options well. I thought the sauce bar was decent but not as extensive as some other places.

Service: mostly self-serve off an iPad - they won't check up too often.

Atmosphere: I appreciate the lanterns and the booths in the back. Will come out and sing for birthdays too which seems to be popular.

Overall: quality across the menu is great, and the soup bases are possibly my favorite in Boston. Can be a bit more expensive than other AYCE options, but generally worth it for the quality.“

“We love the quiche at Colette's!“

“A treasure of a restaurant on busy Cambridge St - walk through the door and you’re in a different world. Servers quickly become friends. Great spot for a romantic dinner for two but still a place where a solo diner feels welcome. Wonderful menu with choices for the adventurous and not so adventurous eater. My new favorite spot for lunch or dinner in Boston.“

“Amazing food. Don't miss out on the pasta dishes or the bread. They actually make for great sharing apps. The staff is so nice and welcoming. Drinks are delicious and unique.“

“When someone's looking for lobster bisque, I'll send 'em here!“

“On the slightly pricier side for a takeout (there is no sitting area and even standing to order or wait was a little tight). Service was fast and friendly. Food was nice and pleasant- not life changing. I would definitely revisit if near but not smth I would make a special trip for“

“I recently hosted a birthday party at Idle Hands and it was so awesome! It was super easy to schedule the rental and plan the event with Darren. The Idle Hands team was great during the event - they made everything run smoothly and made it look easy. Everyone had a wonderful time 🙂 thank you!!“

“Great food and pet darn fast actually. My wife had the shrimp scampi with linguine and I had the stuffed calamari over black squid ink linguine. 🤌🏽👌🏽👍🏽“

“The food was incredible and everyone was super friendly. I’m glad we stopped in!“

“The quality and presentation of the food was top notch. We were incredibly impressed by the dining room layout and staff. If you are looking for a place to propose to your significant other… this is NOT the appropriate place. As I mentioned the food was the finest I’ve ever had; however, the music was terrible. We felt like we were in a 1990’s discotheque. The music was loud, very heavy beat and not remotely romantic. We did mention to our waitstaff and they attempted to get it turned down to no avail. No coffee or dessert available either. I understand space is limited; however you have two of the finest dessert businesses well within walking distance. Even if you only carry two desserts. I would still go back there for the food with the hopes of different music…even soft jazz would be acceptable.“

“Before I forget I have to give a big shoutout to my craft bartender I had the pleasure of meeting his name is Lars just like Mars was really amazing drinks I am am still talking about a day later great conversation and his hospitality 10 out of 10 lets go please make sure you stop by if your in town. Thanks again“

“Best place,great food.Highly recommend 🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“Stopped in on a whim and grabbed a coffee and spinach pastry. Both were great!

The best part of the experience was the staff. They were very busy but still friendly and smiling. The man who took my order was very, very kind and made my day.

Wonderful, local coffee shop!“

“Thank you for GREAT customer service and making me feel welcome. The cafe is immaculate and the food and drink was delicious! My first Iced Matcha!!! Well worth the visit from SW France 🇺🇸🇫🇷 Great merchandise and appreciated the WiFi....Á bientôt!“

“Never been denied an espresso in critical need.
Never been denied free wifi when in need.
Never been denied a cold one when in need.
Never been denied a hot tea in frigid January months.
Never been denied a delicious vegan funfetti and snickerdoodle cookie before pinball league next door.“

“I had an amazing experience and can’t wait to go back🥰“

“I love this place so much. I live in PA, have a husband and children, and still contemplate leaving them for the day to drive to Bakey and pick up a boatload of baked good. It’s that good. Please please please consider coming to the Lehigh valley!!“

“Really good flavors. I tried the mushroom lobi bowl as my main course and also some of the appetizers and desserts. This is primarily a quick-serve take out restaurant, but they do have a handful of tables inside. They also serve breakfast too under another name. I tried their fruit compote (juice) which is house made with real fruit and it was delicious. Owner was the only one working and he was very nice.“

“Had no idea what to expect when a friend booked the reservation and it was amazing. Food was so good and we were all fighting over the family style leftovers when it was time to leave. Such a great atmosphere for a large friend group dinner and the perfect spot for great food and service. Thank you again!“

“Amazing food and excellent customer service! Mher was so kind, patient, and helpful with all my questions since it was my first time trying Persian food. She made the experience even better and helped me feel comfortable exploring the menu. Highly recommend!“

“It's such a vibrant place where shopping, dining, and just strolling around feels like a treat.“

“Went for Dinner and the atmosphere is very intimate. Definitely need reservations and to specify where you want to sit in advanced. We had seating at the bar and were placed very close to their people. They needed more spacing for item I had no where to put my purse and had to hold it i my lap the whole time but i did notice that the bar seating by the window had hooks for purses under the counter that the bar didn’t have. If you jot into being close to your neighbor aid stead clear but for a date night it also puts you close to your date and was nice for that. The food is small plates and we had about 4 different small plates we shared which were absolutely delicious. The best were the Empanada and croquetas de bacalao. we also got the special which was a paella made with fideos which was really good. I didn’t try any of the drink but my date got two beer and liked both of them. The service itself was good the server took time to explain how the menu worked and was quick to tell us if we wanted a paella it does take some time to make and even gave some recommendations. There was only one issue which was we’re having the wrong dishes brought over to us that we meant for the people sat next to us and that seemed to be happens in got other seated at the bar as well. Over all grey choice for date night if you’re okay with smaller spaces.“

“The oysters were fresh and i enjoyed the ambience!!!“

“Ordered an ice cream cake for Easter. It was delicious!!!“

“Love assembly row…this is a fantastic, yummy and fun addition! Great ambiance… staff is friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend! :)“

“Deep Cuts is a great little spot to eat and catch a show. The food is good, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The live space is small and intimate. There’s even a selection of vinyl records available for sale in the taproom!!!! I highly recommend it.“

“Sunday night dinner … Out-of-town visiting our daughter & her family … tasty & flavorsome craft beer; mouthwatering, wood burning oven pizza; TVs & lots of games for the entire family. The best part was the staff…VERY welcoming, friendly and assisted you so that your visit was a memorable and enjoyable experience. Thank you! 5+ Stars“

“Mancini Soul Project definitely recommends night shift brewing. the best people, staff and brews!!“

“EXCELLENT Lahmajoun. Probably the best we’ve had. Also tried the falafel plate and a spinach pie. Portions are huge! Definitely going back.“

“Toasted flats is excellent. I love their food, smoothies, and fresh pressed juices. If you’re looking healthy yet filling and delicious breakfast/brunch/lunch, do try toasted flats! All time favourite is the Bon dia flat and the berry smoothie.“

“delicious flavor and texture. very nice staff“
