50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Saint Louis Park

“I love how versatile the place is: you can always choose your smoothies as they show on the menu, you can always opt out of an ingredient that you don't prefer, and most importantly: you can always customize according to your preference with their big variety of add-on options.

On top of that, the staff is very nice and quick and the vibe of the place is really cool!“

“I love the interior design, service, and food here. I also appreciate the interesting menu selections, which offer more variety than other spots in St Louis Park. This is a great place for a date, a girls' brunch, or even a corporate meeting. My mom use to order the duck sandwich, which unfortunately is not on the menu anymore. She tried the Kimchi bowl instead and enjoyed it. My favorite is the chicken Mediterranean wrap—the chicken is such great quality, and they're really generous with the portion size! I also recommend the ratatouille, chicken wings, chicken apple sandwich, fresh espresso martini, and hummus platter.“

“Amazing food in a comfortable setting with great service.“

“It's Taco Tuesday and I was craving Mexican food, but I didn't just wanna go to the type of place you think of when "Mexican" is brought up... I'm fancy, so I wanted something a bit more upscale. I did a little bit of research and wouldn't you know it... Colita came up. So here's how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: Set south of downtown and a bit west of The Mall of America on Penn Avenue is this gem. There is no private parking lot, but plenty of street parking to leave your fly ride. But once you walk up to the restaurant you can immediately understand the message they're trying to send. Everything looks so modern, straightforward with straight lines, grey colors and light woods. There is a small outdoor section where you can dine if you get lucky enough to land a spot there. Inside carries a very similar style with a little nod to the pueblos and architecture of the southwest. The decor is minimalistic and the "loudest" thing in the room is the live plant wall seated directly behind the bar, which was super cool. Service: I can't remember who took care of us, but we had no issues whatsoever. Food/Drink: I was able to try so many different dishes and drinks here and the list is below... 🍹: Xochitl In Love 🍸: La Clandestina 🐟: Tuna Tostada 🌮: Chicken Tinga Tostada 🦪: Seared Scallops 🫓: Tlayuda 🥃: Colita Old Fashioned 🥩: Lamb Barbacoa Tacos 🫔: Duck Tamal However, my favorite things were the Lamb Barbacoa Tacos, Duck Tamal and Seared Scallops, in that order. The food here is phenomenal, the drinks are excellently crafted and things are served tapas style so you don't get too full off of just one thing! Order a whole bunch of stuff and share with the table! Value: As I mentioned earlier, I wanted upscale and the priced dddooo reflect that. Lol. This is a nice place so be prepared to spend... Like you're downtown somewhere. In conclusion, I loved this place and I will come back over and over. Check this place out the next time you're in the area!“

“I agree with previous poster. I will be dreaming of Francis now. Door was FABULOUS! Atmosphere is quaint. Francis is my new favorite“

She’s an incredible asset to your restaurant!!\nWho would have thought you could get such an incredible Italian meal in Minneapolis? This place is a must!!“

“We held our company Christmas Party at their beautiful restaurant and had such a great time! The staff were so attentive and wonderful to interact with throughout the whole evening! We ordered an array of food and our employees couldn’t stop talking about how fantastic the prime rib and KFC (Korean fried cauliflower) were! The talk around the shop about this event and the delicious food went on for days! We all had such a great experience from start to finish. They made it so easy to plan, set up, host and tear down. We would highly recommend anyone looking to host a party to come here! Now if you are just looking for a bite to eat for a date night or family night out, they also have you covered. No matter what plans you have this is the spot to be! A huge thanks to Lake and Irving for all they did for us and a massive thank you to Chris the chef! That meal was better than we could have ever expected!“

“This place is not inexpensive; but the food is worth every single penny. It’s unique, it’s vegan, it’s delicious, and it’s healthy. The atmosphere is very comfortable. (although the music was a little bit loud for conversation). I shared the cauliflower tacos and hummus plate and we each had a glass of wine and took the yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy cheesecake home (the cheesecake seemed expensive at the time; but I will purchase it again and again. Every taste was Yum Yum Yum Yum.). a lot of times when I go out to eat I think; I could’ve saved money and just ate at home. However, I truly felt my money was well spent! The food was fresh. Very tasty. The arugula salad was phenomenal, even though it was very simple. I need to come back here way more often. Thank you very much for your dedication to healthy, tasty, vegan food. Also, their dedication to quality continues year after year. I think that’s wonderful.“

“If you need your party catered, this is the place to go. Staff: Easy to work with, on time, good prices, friendly and very accommodating. Food: Gorgeous/amazing presentation , fresh, hot, professionally packed. I ordered from Red Rabbit in Saint Paul for my work holiday party. Everyone LOVED the food and the portions are generous. I was able to easily and beautifully display it. The timing was perfect and everything went smoother than I had hoped. This is your one stop shop for all of your party food needs. Hats off to the chefs and management for making our party wonderful.“

“always wonderful perfect thin crispy crust perfect ratio of toppings today we had the El Camino - excellent but the spicy arbol chili red sauce was too hot for us we should have asked for mild or just pico de Gallo. our son will enjoy it“

“Great service staff, incredible food, great mission. Highly recommend!!“

“My kids just treated me to a birthday dinner at Italian Eatery! It was a fantastic experience all the way around - food, service, and atmosphere. The entrees were delicious (we ordered a variety and shared!), and my dessert - the crostata al limone (a lemon tart) was out of this world! This was my first time at Italian Eatery. I’ll be back!“

“Had lunch there today and it was great! Loved the baquette and beef and pickles and chips! And cream soda! Also, attentive and kind staff!“

“Oh what fun, such a neat spot with truly unique drinks that make you say “mmmh yum!” Don’t let the office exterior scare you off, it’s worth the tortuous journey past the meeting rooms and vending machine. Amazing service and super atmosphere, thank you!“

“Excellent sushi & customer service! So delicious!“

“Unbelieveable experience and a must try. Freshest and tastiest food I've ever had.“

“this company is anti-law and order. personally, I don't need a latte, while I'm watching the local Somalia men gangbang some guys underage daughter. what a sick Place Minneapolis is. you let the weaklings bully you. you could have just ignored then, but instead you put the sign up like the little baby you are“

“They have great food with tons of vegan options and a wonderful patio! Today I ordered my favorite dish a roti wrap and it accidentally came with chicken instead of the vegan chickpea version. That’s never happened to me there before. They felt really bad about it and made me a new one and comped my meal and that of my friend. That is above and beyond an excellent customer service. I highly recommend.“

“An absolutely incredible dining experience

Sanjusan was one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had in Minneapolis. We went as a group and decided to order almost one of everything on the menu so we could all try as much as possible, and honestly, I don’t think there was a single dish that disappointed.

The Japanese-Italian combination sounds unusual at first, but it works unbelievably well. Every dish had its own unique flavors and textures, and it was so much fun having the entire table try everything together. The small plates, yakitori, pasta, and pizzas were all fantastic.

The Isaac Becker pizza was one of the biggest surprises for me, and the Mentaiko Lumache was another standout. The Hiramasa crudo, pork gyoza, duck tataki, and yakitori were all incredible as well. Even after ordering that much food, we kept finding ourselves saying, “We have to try that too.”

The staff were just as impressive as the food. Everyone was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely excited to walk us through the menu. With a menu this creative, having staff who can actually explain the dishes and make recommendations makes a huge difference.

The atmosphere is fantastic too. It’s stylish, intimate, energetic, and just feels like a place where you’re supposed to sit around with friends, order a bunch of things, and enjoy the entire experience rather than rush through dinner.

Sanjusan absolutely exceeded my expectations. The food is creative without being gimmicky, the service is outstanding, and ordering almost the entire menu with a group turned dinner into an experience we’ll be talking about for a long time.

Easy 5 stars. One of the most memorable meals I’ve had in Minneapolis and a place I’d recommend to anyone looking for something truly unique.“

“The best breakfast in the MN. Everything on the menu is delicious 🤤“

“Fun! I got a shrimp roll, karage and Miraculum. Yum, yum, yum!“

“Awesomeness people awesomeness food. I love the young Viet people there. Am from Canada.“

“Lovely place and owners. Had a Bauru, an outstanding steak sandwich, named after my hometown in Brazil. The brigadeiro cake was delicious, perfectly balanced with a scoop of raspberry sorbet. Thank you, Kalinka and team. It was a beautiful taste of home.“

“Delicious wood fire pizza. Perfect ratio of cheese, sauce (homemade!) and flavorful toppings. A thin but soft crust. Service was quick and everything was fresh andready as the text alerted indicated. It's a take out only somewhat rustic-hipster joint though there are some picnic benches outside. Would recommend!“

“A taste of Cuba here in Minneapolis. I’m so glad I found this place.“

“Awesome place to host an event!! Super helpful staff, great atmosphere and plenty of space for guests.“

“Super fun vibe, FANTASTIC people/staff, great food and fun times.“

“Great coffee place! What makes this place special is the owners providing a separate building for AA meetings that run from dusk to dawn. Now that is Good Karma!“

“Great business that cares about our future, city, and ALL of the people of Minnesota! Viva NightingaleMPLS!“

“Super fried chicken sandwich. Great front of house service and great bartender. My wine also delicious. Easy to eat on your own here. Thanks!“

“Best food ever. A place to come if you want inspired, ever changing, non pretentious, and genuinely incredibly impressive breakfast and lunch!“

“One of the best breweries in town.“

“Awesome Food! Great Service! Greatly Appreciate the Community Service!“

“Yum!!!! And the service!!!“

“Pizza is always outstanding. Unfortunately the service fell short on this visit. Got our drinks and pizzas came in a timely manner then NO follow through. My partner had to get up from our table and flag down a server for an iced tea refill. Our to go pizza which we ordered at the beginning did not arrive until long after we were finished with our meals. Restaurant was by no means full. We will be back because this was an anomaly and because the food is consistently really good. Thought management would be interested in feedback.“

“wife and I drove 6 hours to eat here. we have made the trip multiple times over the years. came in Wednesday early afternoon and got great service. I wish I could remember her name, I would give her 5 stars. love coal fired pizza.“

“Great service…great food…great prices!“

“Was very surprised at how many exceptional ciders they had, especially considering that I like drier ciders, which are harder to find. Also bought some of their bottled take home beverages, and that was incredible! Tons of space, cool events, knowledgeable and friendly staff. If you like the vibe of Blackstack or Forgotten Star, and you like Cider, this is a no brainer!“

“I would like to recognize Tyrus at the Enterprise Rent-A-Car Mall of America location in Bloomington, Minnesota for going far above and beyond in helping my husband and me. We had parked in the airport parking lot and were struggling to get to the airport terminal with multiple bags. My husband is a disabled veteran with medical challenges, and the walk would have taken us quite a long time. Tyrus was actually on his lunch break when he noticed us struggling. Without hesitation, he came over and began helping us by pushing our suitcases closer to the terminal. Seeing that we were still having difficulty, he went even further and brought a vehicle to help us get there faster. Because of my husband’s chronic pain, getting into the vehicle was difficult, so Tyrus kindly drove me to the terminal, unloaded my luggage, and walked me inside to the check-in area. My husband decided to walk, and the next thing I knew Tyrus was pushing him along with his walker so we could make it to the terminal. Thanks to Tyrus’ kindness and willingness to help, we made our flights on time. The most amazing part is that we were not even Enterprise customers. We were simply two senior citizens trying to make it to our flight, and he chose to help us anyway. He refused any compensation and simply wanted to do the right thing. His kindness, compassion, and professionalism truly represent the very best in customer service. Please recognize him for his outstanding character and service. Thank you again, and God bless Tyrus for his kindness.“

“They have wonderful chai, a good breakfast and very chill vibes. Great little coffee shop!“

“This is my first time trying Scramblin’ egg and let me tell you it is the best breakfast burrito out there and will totally be back and hopefully can stay as a brick and motor store as I think they will be successful at the Bloomington location!!!!“

“Nice atmosphere! I don't drink coffee, but I enjoyed their chai latte and they had a bunch of delicious looking pastry options. Also love that the profits support youth futsal programs!“

“The service was exceptional and the food was fantastic. I started with the green curry octopus which was a really excellent balance of flavors and textures. The mango salmon was cooked beautifully and paired nicely with the rice and delicious sauce. It was a meal rich with flavor but not heavy.“

“Great neighborhood vibes and great neighbors. Drinks are top-notch, snacks are creative, staff is wonderful. Glad to have them be so nearby.“
