50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Maplewood

“We just had the most amazing cheesesteaks! If you want the real east coast south Philly cheesesteak....you must go here!“

“Our server Maria was above and beyond. I normally go here just to relax at a sit down place, and she seemed to get it right away. She checked on us without being annoying, and our food arrived quickly and fresh made. Best time I have had here, hands down. That you Maria!“

“Me and mom love golden corral“

“I truly can’t name a better restaurant in the twin cities. The food is amazing of course but the customer service knocks it out of the park for me every time. Thank you thank you thank you“

“We recently got married (October 2024) and Lake Elmo Inn catererd our wedding. It was absolutely AMAZING! We had the prime rib carving station and the walleye as well as the duck soup and salad. Our guests are still talking about the food. We decided to upgrade to the "LEI Experience" which means each of your guests get a warm hand towel, an intermezzo sorbet, and a chocolate covered strawberry!!! We were over the moon with the service on the night of the wedding and all our communication with LEI throughout the process. Special shoutout to Kayla G. who was the most patient, professional, and kind event manager! She answered every single one of my (many) questions and she did so with a smile! On the night of the wedding, we were SO impressed with how fast the servers were able to get to each of our guest tables and keep the flow going. It was seamless, seriously. We cannot recommend Lake Elmo Inn Catering enough. They've total pro's and just know that you'll be in good hands. Thank you again to everyone on the team for your hard work to make the dream come true!! <3“

“I had the Ruben yesterday & it was the best Ruben I have ever had. The chicken wild rice soup was incredible. The atmosphere is beautiful. My vanilla latte was perfectly created. I WILL BE BACK & Bringing friends and family. How did I not know this gem existed so close to home ?“

“Love this place. A true East Side gem. We have tried the Burgers, Shawarma wrap and bowls totally addicting. Chicken tenders are a hit and don't forget the Gyros they are awesome. Ice cream better than the DQ. Try to visit there one a week. The owners are lovely, very friendly.“

“Accidentally arrived at Brunson's for lunch because the place down the road where we were supposed to go was closed. Best service I've had anywhere in America since before covid. Food was excellent, made from scratch, and doubt anyone could go wrong on the menu. Highly recommend.“

“Today was my first time eating Herr and it was very good.“

“Excellent food and service, but they rush your dining enjoyment, pushing your main meal while still enjoying appetizers, suggesting they want higher table turnover over customer satisfaction. We felt rushed, likely won't return.“

“I have been wanting to go here for years ever since Mendoberri closed. We came here for a work holiday party for about 20 people. Food was delicious and unique (and lots of vegetarian options), cozy vibe, wonderful drinks & great service! I plan on coming back soon and would highly recommend!p“

“We had a late request for them to stop by a three year-old party. They facilitated it and everyone in attendance enjoyed it thoroughly. Lots of different products“

“The bartenders and whole staff are very welcoming! Food is always perfect. Love the spice!“

“Excellent pizza and cheesesteak sandwiches! Kids loved it as well! Food was ready quickly and staff was very friendly. My faves are the Spicy Tono, South Philly and Truffle Fries. Everything was delicious!“

“Fast friendly service. Food was good and hot. Will come again when I visit next time!“

“We were on a quest to find a new ice cream place and stumbled upon Treats via Google. I am so happy we found it! Best ice cream ever! Who would have thought mixing cereal with ice cream could be so amazing!?? Definitely coming back again and again :)“

“I love the Mediterranean wrap and gyros! They have excellent cocktails and our bartender/server (Aiden or Haiden?) was lots of fun!“

“We have been frequent visitors of both LBC & IGBC since the beginning and tonight was hands down the best experience we have ever had. The food/atmosphere/drinks were great as always, but what put it over the top tonight at IGBC was our server- Caygen. She welcomed us and our 3 kids and had such an amazing attitude. She was friendly, cognizant of getting the kids drinks and then food in quickly and checked in frequently. We ordered a fruit cup for our one year old and she took the time to cut it up to make sure we didn’t have to and that it was ready for him to eat. This is something that we have never experienced and we were touched by the gesture. We will be back and hope to have her again!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Sub sandwich in town!! Bonus the ice cream and Dole Whip flavors are worth the weekly visit!!“

“We went to the cities to see Evanescence on the 20th of September and had layover time for the concert to start so my husband and I walked from the venue to Little Brazil. Unfortunately, we got absolutely drenched walking back to the show. Not only that, but we forgot our precious signed posters from the band at our table . The staff saved our posters and kept them safe until we made it back to get them the next day which we truly appreciated. They would have been destroyed by the weather otherwise. We were SO enamored with this gem of a place, it was WORTH the soaked clothes, chattering teeth and watching the rest of the concert soaked through! There is definitely something for everyone whether it be coffee, dessert, sandwiches. They also have a market of imported goods to try like chocolate, candies, snacks etc. Now whenever we are near the cities, it's going to be a must stop! 💖“

“Great service, really good food, and the drinks were my favorite part!“

“Excellent place for sushi. Great atmosphere as well.“

“Loved the space, great band (The Comebacks), and the craft cocktails are awesome. Don't miss the drink called Hot Dog Water. It's great!
It would be nice if they offered even bar snacks, chips, a Heggies ..something. But it's great either way!“

“Really good food but 4 bucks for a fountain soda??? Cmon.“

“What an excellent historic looking coffee shop! Even though it currently is surrounded by scaffolding (for upkeep as I believe it is one of St. Paul’s historic building)- it is clear where it is, how to get in and easy to park on the street. All here are friendly and easy to be around, and you may even catch someone working by on a guitar composition up in the corner. Beautifully eclectic.oh also- I found another lady Liberty 🥰“

“Usually good experience unless its packed. It gets a little confusing then. The smaller cookies are better to me because they tend to be a little more on the done side. If you enjoy slightly under cooked cookies you'd like the bigger size. They are pricy though so I only go once in a while.“

“They have some of the nicest staff here. Always working so hard and being thoughtful. I love the atmosphere, plants and always clean in every spot. Would highly recommend any of their coffee drinks :) Also they have a great Celiac/Gluten free menu options!!“

“Fabulous Biergarten and great staff“

“Beautiful patio and great pizza and beer!“

“Pizza is always killer. The man running the place is always so polite when we pick up our order. I'd say for me it's bordering on too much cheese but the pizza fries and sauce are amazing! And it's one of the few places that has artichokes available. It's also cash only.“

“I enjoy "mining" the $2 bins for hidden treasures!“

“Angie and staff took amazing care of us. We were "celebrating" our father/grandfather's passing and the experience was so amazing. always great food and it was even better with the amazing service. thank you Zes!“

“today was my first day visiting this location and it will not be my last. The food was spectacular and the service was outstanding. The atmosphere was very welcoming. I can’t believe it took me so long to find this beautiful gem. I will definitely be returning soon.“

“Food is good. Stopped in for dinner last night. 12 bucks for a Sam Adams Oktoberfest on tap seems a little excessive.“

“Comfortable place for some craft beers“

“The food and atmosphere was absolutely awesome. Everything we tried had so much flavor. You also get so much food for what you pay for, and it’s worth every penny. Will be showing it off to family and friends!“

“I went here for the first time today. The service was amazing, the coffee and food was great, and they have a cute little merchandise area. I will definitely be going again!“

“Great place to grab a bite to eat while in Lower Town. Very warm, inviting space, including games and Legos! The food was delicious and exactly as we ordered it. The staff was very kind and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back.“

“I am not in the area to visit this business but if you are or passing through Minnesota stop in. Tell them Josh sent you! They are kind and caring about their community and gave free meals to the Homeless. So please give them a visit. *I heard the food is a #10 too! Thanks Kong’s Kitchen!“

“Best brisket and beans money or random kindness can get you 🔥♥️ We loved it and will be back next week“

“Amazing atmosphere, great food and reasonably priced. The live music is a plus!!!“

“THE BEST!!!“

“The Bulldog has the best food and drinks, and Melissa is the best server in town.“

“I grew up in IGH and am always excited to see a new restaurant addition. This has quickly become a go-to local take-out option for family get togethers. The staff is friendly (and very patient w my 70-year-old father who does not pronounce a single dish correctly when ordering). The food is delicious, the portions are very generous, they know their way around take-out packaging (separate hot/cold, secure containers for liquid), and they are FAST. It is not at all unusual to get a “ready in 10 min” estimate, even around dinner time. Our go-to order includes: spring rolls, cream cheese wontons, combination or meatball pho, chicken vermicelli salad, and pad thai. Enjoy!“

“Yummy blue berry scones and of course coffee!“

“Wonderful service, great food and fun atmosphere!“

“My human gets out of the car and goes to the truck. She comes back with a plastic disk and then we sit there for a while. The disk buzzes and flashes and the my human goes back to the truck and comes back with the best food ever. I don’t get to eat the goat tacos because they give me the midnight poops but the chicken quesadilla is the best.“

“The Gnome has great food and excellent service.“

“Love the pinball machines! Highly recommended!“

“They are hit or miss on weather or not they are good, some are way too sweet, others taste plain, there are a few that have been amazing (example waffle one was plain, the S'mores skillet cookie was way too sweet, the oreo cookie was really good)“
