50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Rockaway Park

“We were a group of 23 to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and John, Alex, the staff could not have been more attentive and accommodating. The beer was awesome, the appetizers delicious, the venue just gorgeous, the music and the vibe so good!! We will be back again!“

“I drove down from Canada and found Beach Bagel through google, and I’m so glad that I did. Their bagels are absolutely delicious - 10/10 recommend!! A special thanks to all of the staff, particularly Mohamed, who exude such warmth and kindness. My family will definitely be back :)“

“food was really good. amazing staff“

“Writing this review for actually two specific items that this place makes. Two simple items. The bacon egg and cheese on a roll and the bacon lettuce and tomato on toast. I believe one of the owners is a tall Asian guy super super nice and he makes great egg sandwiches and he just makes great sandwiches. But the egg sandwich, the bacon, egg, and cheese And the BLT were fantastic. He always make sure the bacon is crisp and he gives you plenty of it. I’m a real pain in the neck when it comes to food I like things the way I like them and these two simple American classics. Well, they make them really good over here.“

“Best deli ever. I go there to school almost every day. All of the people working there are really nice, for example today I lost my money, and they said to just bring it tomorrow. They are really nice. The food is good. Everything is cheap. Absolutely recommend going there.“

“RAAAAAH this place is a Brooklyn best. Flavorful Ethiopian food with a few twists here and there. The Kitfo plate is our go-to entree pretty much every time. We also consistently get the Lentil Sambusas which come with a fiery hot sauce. If you want something more classic, they have two sandwich options. A Lentil based burger or a Lion’s Mane Chicken sandwich. Both are really good and come with fantastically seasoned fries. If you go for brunch they’ve got a handful of awesome breakfast items like an SEC, Breakfast burritos, and even a vegan vanilla ice cream infused French toast which is a MUST. Head to Ras for the vibes. Updated from previous review on 2026-02-05“

“Went to Meadowsweet restaurant for dinner with my family. We had an amazing experience from start to finish. The staff were so attentive, helpful and nice. The food amazing!recommend this restaurant! We will be returning soon.“

“Great take on Lu rou fan (minced pork and rice), excellent scallion pancakes and awesome dessert (Tian miantuan) that was like a sandwich of sweet fried dough, golden sesame ice cream and condensed milk (plus cilantro and butter dried peanuts)! Great beverages as well such as the slightly sweetened Jasmine iced tea and Sanzo (lychee & calamansi) sparkling water products!“

“This is the best pizza I have ever had, nice crisp, light crust with just the right amount of toppings, no grease at all. I live in CT and thought no pizza was better than our New Haven ones, boy was I wrong!!! Looking forward to returning……soon!“

“Neighborhood gem. Great decor, homey, comfortable but well appointed. I have dined here alone and with family, both times it was a good atmosphere. GM Michael is really good and runs a good staff. The food is delicious- good for all types of diet restrictions. Fresh ingredients well prepared. Last but not least also great cocktails. Host and server were friendly and attentive. I will for sure be coming back here!“

“Antidote was such a great spot to have dinner on my visit to NYC. The wait was not too long considering there were 7 people in my party. We had so many items off the menu and the staff was very attentive to allergies and other food preferences. The tea smocked duck was incredible, the cucumber was amazing, the wontons were delicious! Everyone loved their dish it was absolutely a great dinner. The only downside was that some of the fish dishes were made with tilapia which is not a fish preference for most of the friends I was with. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend this restaurant“

“When I walked in the restaurant the delicious aromas let me know I made a good choice. The food was absolutely amazing with vegan/vegetarian options and even a complimentary gluten free appetizer. The staff was welcoming and the service great. The prices were reasonable, but the best part was the delicious food!!“

“Great Food and Service Fun Atmosphere !“

“Great food, warm and welcoming staff.“

Great suggestions regarding the menu and all around charismatic individual. SHE DESERVES EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH! I noticed her ability to multi-task, and was truly in awe! Thank you habana !!“

“Super unique and delicious maple praline brown butter pancakes! More cake than pancake. The wait was not long to get a table and the service was prompt, professional, courteous, and didn’t leave us in want of anything. All of our needs were met. Food was prepared much quicker than expected and was all very good! I would definitely recommend this!“

“Great place. Definitely must come back again.“

“Everything was great! The lamb chops are fantastic!“

“La Cafette is the best!!!“

“Had a pasta and pizza and they were both amazing. We are from Australia and found it hard to find a good restaurant in the Marina bay sands area and this did not disappoint. 5 stars“

“Went to TORA NYC recently and decided to order takeout, but even from that short experience the hospitality stood out. While we were waiting, they offered us water and were really welcoming, which already left a good impression. The space itself looks beautiful modern, intimate, and definitely feels like the kind of place that would make a really nice date spot.

We ordered three dishes: the Yokan Roll, Negichutoro Don, and Gyudon.

The Yokan Roll was a really nice example of how modern sushi rolls balance texture and richness. Inside was spicy salmon and cucumber, and it was topped with lightly seared salmon, mentaiko sauce, tempura flakes, and tobiko. The seared salmon added a gentle smokiness while still keeping that soft buttery texture salmon naturally has. The mentaiko sauce, made from seasoned pollock roe that’s widely used in Japanese cuisine, brought a creamy, briny umami flavor that paired really well with the fish. Tobiko added those signature little bursts of saltiness, and the tempura flakes gave a light crunch that balanced the richness of the sauce and salmon. It was a well constructed roll where each topping actually had a purpose.

We also got the Negichutoro Don, which had minced medium fatty bluefin tuna over rice. In sushi terminology, tuna is categorized by fat content akami being lean, chutoro the medium fatty section, and otoro the richest cut from the belly. Chutoro tends to be the sweet spot because it has enough fat to be buttery while still keeping that clean ocean flavor. The texture here was incredibly soft and almost melt-in-your-mouth. Negitoro as a dish traditionally mixes minced tuna with scallions, since the word “negi” literally means scallion. The tuna quality here was great and the texture was amazing, but I do think it could be elevated slightly. If the scallions were minced and mixed into the toro instead of sitting on top it would distribute the flavor more evenly. A little shredded nori could add some aroma from the sea, and honestly avocado would pair really nicely with the richness of the tuna.

The Gyudon was probably the most comforting dish we ordered. Gyudon has a long history in Japan and became popular in the late 19th century as a quick, affordable rice bowl. Thinly sliced beef is simmered in a sweet savory broth that’s very similar to sukiyaki sauce, usually made with soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sometimes dashi. The beef absorbs that slightly sweet umami flavor as it cooks. Here it was served over rice with scallions, sesame seeds, and an onsen egg. Once everything was mixed together, the egg yolk coated the rice and beef and brought everything together. The sauce, beef, and egg created that rich silky texture that makes gyudon such a comforting dish.

Even though we only ordered takeout, that level of service was noticeable.

Overall the food was really good and thoughtfully prepared. The fish quality was great, the bowls were comforting, and the hospitality stood out even in a quick takeout experience. The restaurant itself looks like a really nice place to sit down and enjoy a meal, so we’ll definitely be coming back to dine in next time.“

“Did know what to expect but everything was absolutely delicious. I got the Baba Bowl and added avocado and the apple bottom drink was yummy!“

“I just love this place... !“

“One word DIABLO !!!🙏❤️ Frost Beer was ice cold !!!“

“Some of my favorite food in Brooklyn for a relaxed vibe yet upscale quality food. Think house-maf fermented salsa, truffle fries, perfectly cooked burger with high quality/well sourced meat, the best (ricotta) pancakes you've ever had, fun cocktails and mocktails too! Everything I've eaten there has been amazing, great for dates, friend meet-ups, showing guests the area, and more! They also have fun cocktails and mocktails and coffee too! LOVE this restaurant.“

“great wait staff.. even better food“

“Experimentar o Amaro é uma experiência divertida!“

“Love love love this service! I’ve been so disappointed with grocery stores for the past few years, even organic is tasteless or never reaches ripeness and with a baby, I do not have the time to go to farmers markets. I got my first order delivered today and I was so blown away by the quality and freshness of the produce. I could smell the strawberries almost from the next room, the nectarines were beautifully ripe and full of flavor. The cheese was delicious.

I can’t wait to try everything else I bought! This time was just a test order but I absolutely will be buying all of my produce and dairy from Farm to People from now on. And half of the money goes directly to the farmers?! Seriously, what’s not to love. Finally I can feed my family some REAL, good food.“

“I love this location! And Gian is the absolute best, speedy service and always brings the good vibes. With all these expensive restaurants opening up in the neighborhood, it's nice to have a reliable and affordable lunch option. Plus the ingredients are always on point, good selection and always fresh.“

“Always LOVE coming to KCBC when we’re in NY. Wouldn’t be a trip unless we went there. Staff is always awesome, the tap list is always phenomenal and the vibe is always right. Didn’t get any beer pictures this time around, just doggos.“

“Everything is seasoned to perfection here! Easily one of the best burgers (vegan or non) that I’ve had in awhile. Honestly, the only reason I remembered I wasn’t eating real meat was that I didn’t get my usual stomach ache or feel the heaviness of a greasy beef burger. Also the nugs are perfectly seasoned! I’ll be back this week for round 2!“

“Family owned and delicious Mediterranean food. Friendly service.“

“A fun little cocktail bar, eclectic and maybe just slightly indecisive, they have a mixture of frozen and handmade cocktails, a few beers and wines. The theme is a cross between Asian and Latin - they feature tacos, have a heavily tequila-influenced menu, and also lots of Asian decorations as well as sake. It’s a fun spot, the cocktails maybe slightly expensive for the vibe, but upbeat and cheery.“

“The soups and quinoa falafel 🥙 are out of this world . Mouth waters just thinking about next time I will be eating these items“

“Favorite restaurant, delicious food, sublime wine, amazing chefs Robbie & Sam , friendly and welcoming owners, Clement & Simone go above and beyond to make your experience of their gem of a restaurant simply the best! Love this treasure in our neighborhood, make your reservation and try as much as you can on the menu, every mouthful is just wonderful!!“

“We were looking for authentic, delicious, and fairly priced platters for our Chinese New Year celebration and found A-Pou. A-Pou not only helped us put together the menu, but she included extra special goodies like sesame balls / egg rolls / fortune cookies. Even though Sunday was her day off, she still prepared and delivered the platters to our apartment which was so appreciated. All of our guests RAVED about the food (especially the potstickers, basil chicken, and lo mein).

A-Pou was also amazing to work with from beginning to end - she’s just the sweetest lady. Highly encourage paying her restaurant a visit and calling her if you have catering needs!“

“Brooklyn Noosh - Persian / Iranian Restaurant | Diner stands out from others. I stumbled across this pleasant spot on Yelp. Everything is delicious. From my initial visit, the people at Brooklyn Noosh - Persian / Iranian Restaurant | Diner recognize me and stay alert to my needs. I think this place is superb!“

“I love Jajaja's menu and vegan and gluten free options. I had one disappointing experience which was the quite expensive “dinosaur kale” salad was used with a different kale. It sounds petty, but it's like ordering spinach and getting mustard greens. They should keep the ingredients as described. Otherwise, really nice service and ambience.“

“Thank you to Sylvia and the rest of the Ume team for such an unforgettable experience. We will remember this (early) Valentine’s Day for years to come! The tasting menu was beautifully curated, and being able to experiment with different seasonings, and build your own perfect bite was unlike anything we’ve ever had.
From the moment you walk through the door you’re instructed to take your shoes off and wash your hands. You’re escorted past the chefs and you catch a glimpse of the delicious food coming your way. Even in the middle of winter, sitting in the courtyard is a perfect place to sit and enjoy your meal.
Our server, Sylvia, went above and beyond throughout our time there to make us feel welcomed and special. We were surprised by how kind, attentive and thoughtful our server was on numerous occasions.
We can’t wait to come back!!
-Marta and Ben“

“Went for a casual dinner at the bar after the movies. For a fancier experience I’d say book a table. The potatoes and spicy vodka were SO GOOD. Very simple meals done perfectly. Have tried to recreate the potatoes at home unsuccessfully. Will be back!“

“I arrived during the slower afternoon period. Their dishes impressed me more than I anticipated. Gorkhali - Brooklyn created moments that felt like culinary sorcery! Employees provided steady, superior attention. The quality corresponds to the price.“

“We were in NYC for the weekend and I was told to check this place out. They definitely did not disappoint! Everything was delicious but now I need this in Buffalo….will always be on my list when we visit NYC!“

“placed an order for over 200.00$.The booklet that was attached to the bags says:; delivery is free within 3 miles with an order of 25$, but I was charged 5.00$ delivery fee Food is good, we got utensils but no plates . So I would rate just 3... Sorry“

“Food and service is pretty good.“

“I stumbled upon this place because I was in the area. I got a brown sugar bubble tea. It was delicious, I love that I could taste the richness of the tea. I also got the unagi and spicy mayo salmon inari. They were really yummy! I would recommend giving this place a try.“

“Tbh the gluten free muffin was divine. I thought I had the best gf banana bread recipe but this put me in my place. I would have never known it was buckwheat/gluten free. So moist and fluffy and the perfect sweetness.
There’s a short wait if you’re getting a burrito but there was no line or wait for a baked good.
Their prices are steep-ish but fair given their popularity. The muffin after tax was $6.50.
Honestly so many gluten free options it was great.“

“What a wonderful place! The staff was so fun and the atmosphere extremely warm and inviting. The cappuccino was foamy and so smooth. They were even nice to my service pup and had no issues with us inside. Seems like the perfect place to be a regular. Will be back 110% also the in house baked goods where 🤌<3“
