Food was great, service was great, so many vegan options it was hard to choose!
everyone was so nice! food wasn’t great, obviously vegan chicken isn’t as good as the real thing. Wouldn’t recommend! it was pricey! 18$ for tots and a vegan chicken sandwich, good if you want to just try for fun. Not bad just not great.

Had a great get-together with friends there. Food and service was great, the chili dogs were good, the brisket chili wasn't spicy, but had good flavor. Beer selection was good and some of the custom drinks were very tasty. Parking was challenging, but worth it.

The owner is great. Good custom service from the host and waiters. The Only reason they are missing stars for the food is because on a few nights of ordering bigger size meals they short you . For example the kids chicken tender meal comes with three pieces and fries. I ordered five kids meal one night and they put 1 to 2 pieces of chicken in each one and a small amount of fries in each one and also the sliders when I orders 6 sliders they put one piece of bacon on each slider. Normally they have 2 pieces of bacon

The most exciting part about this restaurant is the FULL SIZE VEGAN & VEGETARIAN MENU. Choices, people! While the food was tasty, it didn’t blow my mind, but even being able to have all the same options as everyone else made it worth it. The buffalo chicken tenders with vegan ranch were the tastiest thing I got and I would get them again; I paired that with fries which were just fine and brussel sprouts which were decent but not overwhelming amazing. Prices were a little steep for me, so I definitely couldn’t eat there all the time. I had one appetizer, two sides, and a mock-mule and paid $50 (including 20% tip). The atmosphere on a Saturday evening was certainly lively and enjoyable; the service was good but not stand-out. Again, the vegan choices is what makes this place enticing.
Vegetarian options: Too many to list! Burgers, chicken sandwiches, pizza pockets, chicken tenders, chicken and waffles, and more
Dietary restrictions: They have a full vegetarian menu and I would estimate that 3/4 of it is also vegan

Great vegetarian restaurant! Loved that every item on the menu could be modified to be vegan/veggie. Price point is the only downside of this restaurant but not unusual for a Veggie place down town.

My family and I just got back from eating here, we had a reservation for 6pm we were sat immediately and nobody came to take our drinks order or anything for about 15-20 minutes but the table that sat in front of us came probably about 10 or so minutes later than us and the server Ellie went and took there drink order fast and then came to us, which wasn’t a big deal at first but then she brought boxes to the table next to us and was chatting with them, and proceeded to go to this table with boxes already more than our table and the other table in front of us, we were running low on drink and were trying to get someone’s attention (a food runner and our server Ellie) but both didn’t hear us when we’re asking for them to refill our drinks while they were at both tables near us, we eventually had to ask the host to get our server because she was pretty much MIA (except to the table she was clearly familiar with and the other table) and Ellie proceeded to go to the table she went to before and ask if they needed anything and then came to us when we asked for her specifically because she wasn’t returning to our table, so then naturally we get upset and I said to the server that it’s not okay to not check on your table in between the two tables she keeps checking on and she said it was because it was busy which is totally understandable except she repeatedly went the the tables surrounding us. After saying something to her and getting a refill on my drink there was something white on the tip of my straw which could have been just from a bumping something while she was bringing it back I’m not too sure but I’ll insert a photo, after we paid and we’re leaving we thanked the host for being helpful and friendly and she apologized but she was NOT the problem. Very unfortunate because we were excited to go celebrate a birthday but it was ruined by bad service. Our server was friendly and the food was good but she needs a little more training with customer experience.

This is honestly just a really fun place to hang out. The staff is super nice, the drinks and food are good. And the place just has good vibes... This is relatively easy when there are pictures and sculptures of dogs everywhere.

Cute place with all of the dog themed imagery. The breakfast menu is limited but what we ordered was delicious.
Excellent prices as well.

I did a pickup order and was charged a tip. I never added one and contacted the restaurant twice and was told the manager would “handle” it. Never got contacted back and it’s a shame because the food is good.

Well, visiting our niece at the U of MN, we grabbed the opportunity to grab a bite here at stray dog. We got the beyond PB and bacon burger, request vegan, and it was out of this world. We also ordered the vegan chilaquiles, vegan. They were OK. Flavor was all right, eggs were fantastic but didn’t live up to our favorite dish from another restaurant.
If salty food is your thing then this place is it!

I have never been to a place that has a full separate vegetarian menu, yet still feeds you meat. Ordered a vegetarian sandwich and mentioned it was vegetarian TWICE, and we also talked about the dairy free queso. Somehow during the five seconds of leaving our table and going to the POS, he put it in as a meat sandwich. I didn't realize until halfway through my sandwich that it tasted too meaty. Got the item and another taken off our check, but that doesn't change how sick I'll be tonight.
If you are vegetarian, be careful with this place, because apparently they can't distinguish their meatless and meatfilled options from one another. Host/server also seemed high or drunk or just didn't care about his job. Maybe train them on writing stuff down and double checking orders like every other restaurant does.
Safe to say, went once and never again. Impossible to trust.

Came in and were seated by hostess who was nice. Then we waited for 20 minutes (it was not busy at all) and waitress didn’t even acknowledge us. Went up to hostess and she said that the waitress would be with us shortly. Then waitress walked right by us to people that were just seated. I watched the hostess direct the waitress towards us and she just ignored her and went to a second table that came after us. We were the only people of color in there and were the only ones being ignored. Hostess was the only bright spot of this establishment.
