50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Oakdale

“Very high quality food. Steak was amazing and the salad was fantastic. Portions were great for the pricing. Lots of places now have poor salads and this place had an amazing salad. Very fresh and great mixed greens. Great service and easy parking. Would come back again and again.“

“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“

“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.“

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

“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!“

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

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

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

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

“Love the wide variety of cookies they offer. Everything is fresh and tastes delicious. Staff is always friendly. I appreciate that you can order ahead or just walk in. I also think it's helpful that they're open later into the evening to offer a fun evening dessert or goodies for a last minute get together. Really good things come in a pink box!“

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

“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!“

“Came here for brunch and we enjoyed our food! My friends and I got a Nutella crepe, turkey / cheese crepe, and a chicken sandwich. I loved how the cafe had indoor and outdoor seating options! Interior is very cute and could be great for studying or catching up with a friend! We enjoyed our meal and appreciate the wide variety menu they have. One thing I will note is that the sides were a bit overpriced in my opinion, being $5 for a side of potatoes.“

“Beautiful patio and great pizza and beer!“

“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“

“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!“

“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! 💖“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Stopped in on 1/29/26 evening. The server was very informative of what was on tap. Described them to make a choice. Tried a flight to have a sample of 4 different offerings.
Server was friendly and carried on a conversation- great asset to the team!! Fair price - friendly - great atmosphere. Worth a stop“

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

“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.“

“IPho2 is one of our favorite places. Any Pho option is delicious. When dining in, the service is very fast. We spent a longer time deciding what to get than we did waiting for our food. We’ve also have had takeout from here and haven’t had any problems.
Gave 4 stars for atmosphere because restaurant could use a little facelift.“

“Yummy blue berry scones and of course coffee!“

“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.“

“I love love loveeeee the Robert street store! The manager is amazing (I call her my cookie lady) she is always giving me her recommendations and once when I told her I didn’t like I flavor I bought from another store she said pick one out I’ll give it to you for free - she didn’t need to do that- and I didn’t accept but her customer service is above and beyond!!!!“

“It was good. One of my son's favorite spots in Stillwater. I can tell how good a Mexican restaurant is going to be by its chips and salsa. You can tell that Mi Paeblo used fresh oil to fry the chips and do not overcrowd the fry basket. You taste the chip, not the oil and they are cooked evenly. Good salt. Salsa doesn't seem overly spicy, but by the end of eating it you get the spice. Perfect! Chucky, but we'll blended. Just like my theory above, the food was prepared fresh and with care as well.“

“Wonderful service, great food and fun atmosphere!“

“We got the alambre with 1/2 chicken and 1/2 al pastor and the pollo poblano and it was delicious! Service was excellent. We just moved here from Arizona and it’s been hard to find good Mexican food here, but this place hits the spot! We’ll definitely be back again ☺️👏🏽“

“It has a great patio, great food (I had wings), excellent beers. We sat outside and the place was packed both inside and out. Staff was busy for sure.
When sitting at the bar and when not at the bar it is great but durring peak times (aka diner rush) it can slow down due to being super busy. So just remember that everyone is important and they will get to you. So have some good conversation lined up if you go durring peak time.“

“Great people and atmosphere. Clean place, fun history, cold beer, and cool staff. We'll be back.“

“very spacious and quick service“

“great food and good service“

“THE BEST!!!“

“We had a Fantastic! time this weekend at the wine, cheese and chocolate tasting! Lots of fun treats to be had. We will be back... Thank you!“

“There are very few restaurants that I really want eat at regularly, but Mississippi Pub is one of those. The consistency of the menu is part of that… I know that the wings will be crispy and hot. I know that the brunch items will be savory and plentiful. But the atmosphere is the other. This is NOT fast food! Come to enjoy a cocktail (or an excellent mocktail), the view of the river, and leisurely enjoy the experience. If you’re in a hurry, I’m sure there’s a fast food restaurant you can choose instead 😂“

“Great people! Great food! Monthly specials are fun experiments that sometimes end up on the menu. If you haven’t been in a few years, give them another try. The current team and menu are awesome.“

“great food, great employees nice atmosphere“

“Our kitchen is open. We focus on serving high quality, freshly made to order bar food, with a twist. We offer food specials as well as surprise Gourmet chef specials. We have awesome Bloody Mary's one of the best I've had. We offer drink specials 2 4 1s on domestic beer and premium rails. Our neighborhood is being revamped which is awesome for the bar and community. So if your looking for a cool neighborhood dive bar with awesome staff and great food come Check out The Saint Paul Saloon. P.s The owner is on site and loves to interact with the patrons of the bar.“

“This is one of the best cold stone ever the coworkers are always so nice and always bring a good conversation I like to recognize Alex and Lily who were so helpful helping me and my friend as we were new and dint know what to get thank you!“

“Absolutely Amazing Pure vegetarian eatery! All our guests were so impressed with the authenticity and topclass taste which felt like home cooked! Thanks to Radhika sriram for the scrumptious satisfying cuisines! Highly recommend this place!“

“Great view, food and beer selection. Great service team…“
