50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Cincinnati

“We came here for dinner one mid-week evening before taking a stroll through Summit Park. You can definitely show up dressed comfortably/casually, but they have pretty decent ambiance, suitable for some weekend fun. We weren't super intrigued by the menu; it was a little less extensive than I'd hope from a place like this, mostly heavier options, and maybe not a ton of things I'd order next time. For me, the mussels far exceeded my expectations. That broth was heavenly, the bread was soft and perfect for soaking up the great flavors, the mussels themselves were very abundant, and had okay freshness. My lady said her burger was mediocre. She tried both the truffle fries and duck fat fries and was disappointed by both. I've never seen her not eat fries before, so that says a lot! Service was good overall. I'd come back for those mussels any day, but not quite as excited to dig deeper into the menu. I wouldn't deter anybody from giving them a try, especially if out enjoying the park on a nice day.“

“Yay great stuff man enjoyed!“

“Today I traveled from Florida to Cincinnati. My sister and I wanted to get a bite to eat . We didnt want to get fast food that you could get on every corener . While leaving the airport I Googled restaurants close by . There were several to choose from however, we decided on Pig Candy BBQ this restaurant did not disappoint. The food was amazing ( we had the special which was the brisket sandwich) this sandwich was very tender and full of flavor. If you are just traveling through or a local or feel up to a drive this is definitely worth your time .The staff knows what customer service means . All around Great food and service. A MUST STOP....... THANK YOU !!“

“My husband and I came here for a date night!! The food and service are spectacular!! We really won’t be going to another Indian restaurant for a long time grime since finding Flavorful India. Shweta is so friendly and and eager to please her customers.

If you’re hungry for good food….Come here“

“My Goodness! The flavors are amazing!! The oxtails are tender and flavorful. The chicken is completely marinated and moist never dry. The steamed fish with peppers and onions is great with just the right amount of heat. If you want to go to Jamaican just order and be transported in you mind! JUST DELICIOUS!!! The only reason no 5 stars is there is always room for improvement. And I can't wait until theres a more upscale dining experience of Yummi Express!!“

“Loved it!!! Food was great but service was even better ! KATELIN, KATELIN, KATELIN!!!! We shall return!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cafe Mediterranean Hyde Park with Heather Raake Bates , and it was truly an exceptional culinary experience. The meal was outstanding, and the service was superb. I highly recommend visiting this establishment, as it is a hidden gem that warrants a return visit.“

“One team member said: "Cafe Mochiko is hands down one of the best Japanese bakeries that I have had the honor of trying. Everything is perfectly balanced regardless if you are a sweet or savory kind of person! The best part was my gluten free wife had some incredible options as well. The only thing that I wish is that I knew about them sooner. They are award winning for a reason and I highly recommend everyone to check them out!"“

“The pastries were excellent!! They clearly sell out fast - we visited twice and the first day we showed up an hour after opening to a very limited remaining selection. The croissants had excellent flavor and a really nice textural contrast between the exterior and interior. I tried a number of pastries and think a must-try is the artichoke croissant. If I were local I’d be here all the time!“

“Benson Paige is a pup who has lived in a shelter for a whole year. Today is his last day on earth since he is being humanely euthanized tomorrow. A foster took him out and spent some time at Bloc, so benson got to finally cuddle up on a couch. He finally got to eat a whole plate of eggs, a plate of bacon and experience the good life- something he never got to experience before. Stevie the lead barista was incredibly kind and compassionate over the phone with me while I tried to coordinate getting benson a special treat and helped me make sure the foster & benson were taken care of and that he got to experience love. There are no words to describe my gratitude to them and thank them for providing a place for benson to be safe and loved. ❤️❤️❤️ can not recommend them enough for their customer service“

“Owner is super sweet & friendly. She helped me pick out a lychee fruit tea with boba. I love that jasmine tea is the base. It was yummy but very sweet- I got 75% sweet but next time I think I would get 25%. Love supporting small businesses! ❤️“

“it's the bourbon slushies for me!“

“We go multiple times a month when it's open. It's just that good. I recommend the walking tacos, coneys and chocolate shakes. Everything is consistently good unlike most restaurants these days.“

“I am in the area often for work and have even delivered here. But I finally got to try it today! This iced mocha is divine. I WILL be back. It’s so cozy inside and the staff was very nice.“

“I was so happy when I saw you all are on Postmates! I haven't had your food since I stopped working upstairs. Everything was delicious! Thank you!“

“Me and the family stopped in as we havent had Mongolian in a while as they've all closed down around us. 10000/10 would recommend this place. I never knew egg drop soup was a thing, and this restaurant turned me into a fan!! The staff was awsome wish I could have that staff in many other restaurants we go to!! Even our picky kids enjoys the experience and food as well. We will return again soon.“

“I love this place. The atmosphere is beautiful!! Their patio area just amazing!“

“SUCH a cute gem in madisonville! Great coffee and bakery. They have an outdoor courtyard and patio, and they allow pets! I’ve brought my cat on a harness and leash multiple times and they are so welcoming.“

“What a delightful coffee shop! Lots of delicious options. I had the Cinnamon Chip Muffin, Hazelnut coffee and took home an Almond croissant. They have sugar free and gluten free options, too! Scrumptious. Chill and friendly atmosphere with good service. Local art on display and community feel. Easy parking. I highly recommend.“

“Beautiful custom iced cookies and delicious food! 👍🏻 Can’t get enough of the meatloaf sandwich and all the soups are great!“

“Best ever. 30+ year customer.“

“Fantastic Veggie Burger! Will definitely come back“

“This is a great place with so much history! the waitress, Jasmine, was friendly and did a great job!“

“going tonight recommended by a friend for karaoke 🎤 singing“

“Was in town for the week on business. We all had a blast!!“

“Great bar to grab a drink. Friendly staff, clean and great vibe“

“Delicious food and friendly service“

“Was there on 6/21/25 and it was the best and awesome food and probably the best waitress we have ever had (Jala?). Highly recommend and will definitely be back to eat there again.“

“Great atmosphere and the best brisket. The owner, the cook, the bartender and all of the waitstaff are friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!“

“We had a great Sunday morning match followed by mimosas in the Grill. A beautiful place that offers so much. Please build one on the East Coast!“

“I was in town and Agave & Rye was recommended to me. I stopped in on 9/10/22 talked with Emma the hostess and explained I was having a few friends to stop by not sure how many between five and ten. She accommodated me at the high rise table back by the windows which was perfect for my nine guest. Sarah was our excellent server, she continually checked in on us even thou I saw her working outside as well. Our drinks were awesome and our food was really good. Next time I am in town I will definitely return here.“

“Always fantastic. Go for the fries, stay for the blue cheese. Oh yeah, they have meats too. I usually get the spicy garlic on the wings, but they were kind enough to give me a cup on the side of the Chernobyl to try. It is very hot, but I would not say super hot. If you regularly eat habanero sauces and want more then this is probably a good heat level for you. It also has a good flavor, it’s not just hot for sake of being hot. Everyone there is super friendly also. Great atmosphere. Cool aesthetic. There is often live music on the weekends, which can be a bit loud and it definitely gets busy. Not a negative, just something to be aware of. Come during off hours if you don’t want that. I wish I could just buy a jug of the blue cheese. Maybe I can, but I haven’t asked.“

“This is the best Brewery in town!!!
I had my 50th birthday celebration here in the private party 🎊 room which was just right for a small crowd. It was intimate, had a grown and sexy atmosphere. Lindsey the event coordinator was pleasant, patient and very helpful with questions regarding any accommodations for me and my guest. I would definitely do business with them again.“

“Great local low key bar with friendly attentive staff“

“Great neighborhood bar. Great bartenders, fantastic beer selection, but if you’re looking for food, you’re in the wrong place go across the street or next-door to Mo Chico or Tequila.. This is my favorite neighborhood. Hang out. Parking on the street or across the street in the Paige lot, or behind building on free parking deck.“

“The gotta melt was fantastic! Hot cheesy and the spicy mayo was fantastic. The chips as the side was a little disappointing they were fine just a little stingy with them for the price. Ate at the bar and Any was a fantastic server and I was able to sample several beers to make my choice. The beer was outstanding the Chocolate Hazelnut Milk Stout was so good and I am not even a big coffee fan but that beer could change that!“

“Wonder Ribs and sides. Excellent customer service.“

“best ice cream around. The blue ice cream and all the Dole Whip flavors are just the best.“

“The bartenders are awesome Brooke is the best“

“My husband and I visited Sugar and it did not disappoint. we bought a variety of cookies and a brownie. Everything was fresh and baked to perfection. I definitely recommend!“

“First visit. Got the special… best French Dip sandwich I’ve had. Baguette was perfection for this dish. Will be back.“

“Great lunch option in downtown Cincinnati. Lively, fast paced quick casual spot that focuses on salads, sandwiches and soups. Always packed for weekday lunch though tables turn over quickly. They have a great pick two option with soup/sandwich or soup/salad.“

“Loved my experiences here so far. Friendly employees, great coffee and the best chocolate croissant I’ve ever had in the United States. You can tell that their croissants are freshly made once you buy into them. They have great coffee choices that they change up each day. 5 out of 5 stars!“

“Favorite bar in the city. Food specials are amazing every time and their cocktails are delicious. Bartenders feel like old friends“

“My friend Rachel and I stopped in at Northside Yacht Club for dinner. I had the Arby's special, and it was some of the best Arby's themed food I've had since moving away from Georgia. Rachel had the wings and thought they were the best she's ever had in southwestern Ohio, and you know what - I agree. We will definitely be back.“

“Place just went under new management and I attended a soft opening. The vibe is right. The new owner and service are phenomenal. There's a food truck, outdoor patio, and good tunes. This will be my new favorite spot from now on.“

“We drive up from Georgetown KY several times a month, we’ve been lucky to have the same server the last 3 times, I think she said her name is Lilly, she is a breath of fresh air, very attentive, super pleasant. As for the food, it’s top shelf, I’ve had quite a few of the dinner plates, never disappointed, yesterday I got the shawarma pizza and fried cauliflower, OMG, delicious is an understatement it was divine. It’s one of our go to spots when we come to Cincinnati, we love it.“

“1215 has a great atmosphere. The coffee, tea, wine, and cocktail selection are what you want from a later night wine and coffee bar. Loved the ambiance. Service was great. It's very cozy and warm. I can't wait to visit once the weather cools. I highly recommend.

The only thing I found interesting was that I wasn't able to tap to pay. This is not particular to 1215. There was no parking app or ability to tap to pay for parking either. I just relocated from another city and rarely carried cards or cash.“

“This is the best one. I miss the coffee.“
