50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Wayzata

“Great service…great food…great prices!“

“I showed up about 30 minutes early, for my on-line order. The man at the counter greeted me and asked if he could help me and I explained I was early. He responded with let me get that going for you! These burgers are SO tasty, I did the burger of the month, onion rings, and a chocolate malt. The service is always impeccable!“

“Stopped by for dinner on a coworker's recommendation while visiting out-of-state for business. To my tastes, this is the overall best dining experience I've had anywhere. Top notch food, top notch service, excellent views of the lake, and a nice steel drum band while I was there.“

“Our server, Stephanie, was delightful and excellent! The food was amazing! Best wedge salad I've ever had and my pork ribeye dinner with spiced apples was SO delicious. My wife had the Jumbo tiger shrimp with garlic spinach & asparagus with Parmesan cream risotto and it was out of this world good. It was our first time eating here and I don't know why. I can't wait to eat here again. We will be back a LOT.“

“Love this gem of a spot in Wayzata - brunch was delicious - my Gruyère & mushroom omelette was yummy & hot when it arrived to me. I chose to add a little hollandaise sauce on the side which I highly recommend. Our group also shared the banana & strawberry toast with peanut butter and cocoa nibs & it was delish! Great service too & not too noisy - we cld hear each other talk which was an extra perk!“

“This place has been on top of my list to impress guests from out of town for more than 2 years now
1. Fire vibes
2. Great service
3. Small but perfect snacky menu for an intimate little venue like this
4. Overall one of my favorite spots in Twin Cities…

Did I mention, ample parking? Amazing cocktails?“

“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“

“Tried for the first time tonight and it won’t be our last! Fast, delicious and great service and atmosphere! A new favorite for sure!“

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

“Great homemade food. Friendly, well cooked dishes. Will be back“

“Great food and awesome service!“

“Food was very good. My mom got the shrimp lemon and chicken pasta which was FANTASTIC 10/10 on that. My dad got the pot roast stroganoff which was also fantastic another 10/10. I got the prime rib French dip which the sandwich was fantastic, however the au jus was very bland which was disappointing. The tater tots were awesome. Would definitely eat here again!!“

“Love the friendly atmosphere. Many events. Family and dogs welcomed. Outside is great with large movie screen for sport events. Great DJ.“

“Not only are staff always friendly and helpful, the bowls are always delicious. Many different options for a healthy treat. Love Nautical Bowls… and especially the Maple Grove location.“

“Great food, great service!“

“The Lucca Grinder (with hot fried peppers) is one of the most delicious sandwiches I have ever had. It is also enormous and very inexpensive for the size and quality. I look forward to experiencing additional menu items again soon.“

“A cozy, welcoming place specializing in small, diverse, craft vineyards. Wonderful staff and pretty space. Highly recommend.“

“Easy to order, easy to get food, easy to get your beverage. First time. Just ordered from the bartender. Probably keeping costs low. But that’s fine. Food and drinks were fine. Typical brat or wurst, onion rings were tasty. I would go back for trivia or initials night. :)“

“The best hot dog ever! 🤤 Very friendly service!“

“We've ordered here a few times, and the food has been superb. The service is friendly, and best of all, they accept card payment!
We ordered taco platters, where you get 3 tacos, plus a side of refried beans and rice. The beans and rice are flavorful and delicious. The tacos we went with were the pollo (chicken), carnitas (pork), and carne asada (steak). They came on corn tortillas (as they should) topped with onions and cilantro. The tortillas were soft and scrumptious, and the ingredients were cooked perfectly.
We also ordered a side of the chicken nachos which was a HUGE portion. The tortilla chips were a little soft, but what the chip consistency lacked the toppings made up for. The chicken was well-seasoned for a perfect flavor combo with the jalapeños, cheese, pico, and crema toppings. We will be back!
Tip: Don't sleep on the taco sauce they provide. The avocado and habanero salsas were soooo good.
4 stars for atmosphere because its a food truck and not an actual sit-down restaurant. It's not a knock on the business, but with only 1 picnic table to sit at, it leaves a little to be desired when you want to eat, right then, right there.“

“Friendly service and good food!“

“This was our first time here and we had such a great time. So many beverage options and a fun, relaxed place to be. We will be back very soon!“

“Nice patio, comfortable interior. I go to work, drink an Icee or two and eat their free popcorn. Friendly staff. Right on Mainstreet Hopkins.“

“I stop by Basecamp almost every day for my iced coffee, and it never disappoints. I order the same drink each time, and the quality is consistently excellent. The staff is always friendly, and the service is top-notch. Skip the big chain coffee shops support Basecamp instead!“

“I just watched one of Josh’s videos and saw what y’all did. Any business that helps their community is just amazing to see but any business that’s willing to go half in as soon as they heard it was for the homeless shelter just melts my heart and gains my recommendation any day. I Haven’t been to Minnesota and would love to try y’all’s food one day. Just by looking at some of those chicken sandwiches makes me so hungry.“

“Outstanding food. Never disappointed.“

“Munkabeans is my go to morning place for meeting my neighbors on important issues!“

“Boom Island Brewing and The Tile Shop Thanks for a great Party. What a great Brewery and they know how to host a Party! 💯“

“Delicious pastries, great service and atmosphere.“

“Had the Purgatory Czech Pilsner crisp light lager. Good solid beer. Pretty busy on a Saturday lots of reserved but open tables. Open outside seating w a food truck. Dogs welcome. Has arcade games as well. Parking could be an issue. Strip mall has a number of other businesses that have reserved parking.“

“I've driven by this place at least 100+ times in the past year. I always thought it was Brazilian Steakhouse or something, but saw than I saw on google it was more classical pub food and decided to stop by on lunch to get a burger and it was better than expected. The Bar area is kind of small, has an overall "Diner" feel to it, with an open view of the kitchen. Overall the food was good, the wedge fries were good, same with the burger sauce.“

“Dunn Bros is a favorite and I was in the area so I stopped by this one for a hit. Based on these other reviews and the neighborhood I can tell it is in a snobby area of town that needs a reality check on their expectations on probably a lot of things. Staff was pleasant. Coffee was good. Internet worked. Plenty of space. I didn’t have the food but it looked pretty standard. Its a coffee shop.“

“Local fare done well. Great service!“

“Great experience as our first time!“

“Awesome place!! We walked in with a group of 11 at 8:50 pm, and the kitchen closed at 9, but they told us no big deal, go ahead and order food, which was so kind! The food was amazing, and they took time to explain everything. We had plenty of room to sit and enjoy ourselves, with three levels of seating. Even when it was time for them to close the taps, they gave us a heads up, but because we were talking too much we forgot to grab a last drink, so they turned it back on for us! They could have been so annoyed with a large group of chatty women, but instead they were so hospitable! Can't wait to return!!“

“My wife and I were thoroughly impressed. The wings were some of the best I've ever had and the prices were incredibly cheap. $7 for the Brindisi burger with fries?! My wife had the beef stew and it was great as well. Server was friendly and the patio was nice.“

“Great atmosphere, staff, service and food! And, of course 😋 Irish beer 🍺 !“

“Great staff and food. Very fresh has a fun golf club machine“

“My husband and I came from Ohio to celebrate his birthday and we had some time to kill before attending Paisley Park for our tour. So we stopped at this establishment and the staff and the people in the area were friendly. As for the brew I'm not a beer drinker but I did try the Rosé seltzer and it was really good. Hubby and I definitely had a great experience!“

“Love love the trolley. I’ve Photograph it so many times. Lost track. The ice cream is always a must. Love the chairs. Hmmm. Can we have more there?? Hee hee“

“Had a wonderful experience for dinner on a very busy Dec. 23rd. Our party of 3 arrived at about 6:10 to a waiting list of approx. 6 other parties. We were told 20 minutes to wait, it was no more than 15 minutes. Service was spot-on time-wise and efficiency-wise. Food was excellent. Portions were huge. I feel it is a great place to enjoy a meal.“

“We were welcomed with open arms yesterday! The food was simply amazing! We recommend the Urban Cowboy Burger and the Tacos!!! We will be back again, thanks again Ben!“

“Great cocktails and great pizza!“

“My dad and I - both huge craft beer fans- stumbled across this absolute gem last night. Neither of us live in the area (I’m in S Mpls and he’s in the south suburbs), but we were in Plymouth looking for a brewery and this one sounded unique. I’m going to try to make this succinct, but so much was perfection, so here’s a list of PROS:
-Friendly and extremely knowledgable staff. My dad asks lots of questions, and the kind beertender had good answers about how the brews were made, hops used, “this is a little different than other brews in this style, what’s different?”, etc. He even came out from behind the bar to chat with us, which I don’t see at any other tap rooms.
-HUGE variety of brews, and nearly all were fabulous in my opinion.
-Completely unique vibe, which was refreshing for me coming from Minneapolis, where it’s easier to find a brewery thats just like all the other breweries than it is to find someone who’s doing something truly unique.
-Related to the above: chairs were actually comfortable and not those crappy metal chairs every single brewery has.
-Dad loved the library. Between the excellent selection of books and beers, I think he was ready to move in.
-Variety of upcoming events, including the classic trivia, a maker’s market, and TRICYCLE JOUSTING coming up on 6/1.
-Appears they have a patio as well, it was raining when we visited.
-Head brewer is a woman, which is less common than one might hope in 2025, but here we are. She’s so talented, and I’m a fan without even having met you, Lori!

Cons:
-No in-house food, which some may prefer. I didn’t mind ordering in from Davanni’s, who gave us a discount for ordering from the brewery. Perhaps they have food trucks sometimes, I’ll keep an eye out for that when I return. They do have snacks like pretzels and chips.
-This place is not in my back yard, which is only a con for me personally; hopefully they’re closer to you, dear reader.

Overall, well worth a return trip to see what’s on tap and sit a spell in a friendly, welcoming, unique environment.“

“My mom and I stopped in for lunch and we were greeted immediately and chose a table to sit at. I chose their spiciest burger (the name escapes me) and my mom chose the pepperoni pizza. Both were delicious, but if you don't like things too spicy, ask them to put the spicy sauce on the side for your burger. It was a lot of heat, but still so good! Atmosphere was calm and relatively quiet as there were only a few customers at the bar and surrounding tables during our visit. Our server was also bartending, and he was very attentive. I'd definitely stop back in whenever I happen to be on that side of the cities!“

“Wonderful team with great suggestions and assistance! Best coffee around- whoever roasts their coffee is an expert!!! We had our crew meeting there and they accommodated no problem with a quick call ahead! I would recommend it highly!!“

“The Prime Rib nissed the mark by a long way, Would never order again. Could hardly cut it with a steak knife, let alone eat it. Never was asked how was your dinner.“

“This has been my go to place for a nice drink or meal. Menu has always been satisfying, and the in-house brewery selection also satisfying. Best of all the bartenders take great care of the patrons, and a nice place to bump in and chew the rag with someone.“

“Best marine on the lake 👍🏽“
