50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Cleveland

“Fantastic Soba noodles (cold dish)! Great staff (Thank you, Shannon),very nice atmosphere. A wonderful night out with the Mrs. was made extra special. Can’t wait to go back.“

“The food and service were great and can’t be being on the water!“

“GLBC and Shannon were amazing and helped bring our wedding celebration to life. The entire process was easy - booking and talking to Shannon and seeing what we needed. Out of all the places we looked at and spoke to, GLBC was the most accommodating, the most responsive, and had the most custom made options. They made sure that everyone had food to eat, given that we had multiple people with different preferences/allergies (gluten-free, lactose intolerant, and vegetarians). They helped us style the room to the vibes that we were going for, gave us extra space, and also helped set-up our flower centerpieces. The food was delicious and our guests continued to talk about all of things they tried that they loved. FYI - meatball with marinara, sausage platter, and buffalo cauliflower were the top 3 apps everyone went back for multiple times. Overall, we had the best time and would recommend this venue over and over again. Thanks GLBC and Shannon!“

“Great food great cocktails and great service! Love Chef Chris’s specials !“

“Terra is the best thing to happen to Terrestrial Brewing Co! Located inside the brewery, Terra brings in a more comfortable and cool atmosphere with a simple menu, good cocktails and great food at a reasonable price. Of course their craft beer is available as well. The Pimento cheese dip is a must try, and the chicken sandwich is done right. Dog friendly patio and also in the brewery side. Check the website to see their daily specials as well!“

“Wonderful brunch on the patio, food and service were both excellent!“

“It was my first time here, and if I lived in town, I’d 100% be back all the time. The vibe is amazing when you first walk in. The decor is unlike anything I’ve seen, the food is delish, and the service is great! Brianna was so kind and generally helpful throughout our whole meal. Loved it!“

“Carne aside and papas bravas are to die for! Of course amazing drinks! Friends highly recommend the guac!“

“Yummy latte. Got the spiced coconut latte with oat milk. Very helpful and friendly staff. Husband got blood moon tea and it was delicious too.“

“4 of us visited Bruno’s Sunday for dinner with a 6:45 reservation. Greeted immediately upon walking in. Bar area seats abt 10-15 and reservations can be made for bar seating as well! Within a minute of being seated our server had our drink order and returned with them. Appetizers ordered: Hot sausage stuffed peppers These weee absolutely awesome. Served with peppers and onions with a light marinara. Menu says “spicy”; they are medium hot but amazing flavor Artichoke The couple with us ordered these ?breadcrumb” battered and fried portion. Also sauced in hous made marinara. Entrees ordered: chicken parm, spaghetti marinara, scallops and pasta. All were tremendous! Our server Martha was spot on with everything, meal was very nicely paced. I spoke with the gentleman in charge to compliment him on his food and staff. This was our first visit but definitely not our last! This is a definite 10/10.“

“Love this place! The service is excellent. All of the workers are so friendly! Highly recommend all of the iced coffee and Irish soda bread and scones. Such a great spot in west park!“

“This was the best dinner we have ever had and it is in Little Italy which makes it even better. Thank you for a great dinner with family and friends. We all loved everything we ordered. The server was great and other servers refilled water/beverages, nice team service environment.“

“The coffee and service were great, but unfortunately the baked goods were not. My son and I each got a lemon poppyseed scone, and they had a strange taste. They didn't really taste like lemon at all, and I couldn't eat it. We took our order to go or I would have said something. I would go back for the coffee and atmosphere.“

“Stopped here after visiting A Christmas Story House, and we were not disappointed! The food was excellent and great portion sizes. The poke bowls, ramen bowl, wonton soup, and house brew fruity teas were the best we have ever had. We will definitely stop here again when we are in town.“

“I live about 90 min from Cleveland, and my 8 year old has been begging me to take him somewhere to try bubble tea for weeks now. We were in Cleveland for the night, and Balance was close to where we were staying so I decided to give it a try. The girl working at the counter was AMAZING! She was so helpful and super interactive with my son, literally mirroring his excitement. I know this is something small, but I have worked in the service industry and I know how infrequent it is to get positive feedback. I’m sorry I didn’t catch the girl’s name (she was tall with long blonde hair), but she was fantastic and really made us feel welcome. The restaurant was also super clean and all the employees were working hard.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Zanzibar Soul Fusion is soul food heaven! The turkey chops are tender, juicy, and full of flavor of salmon bites, and fried cabbage, and the collard greens taste like home. The vibe is warm, the music is on point, and the service makes you feel like family. Every bite hits—this place is a must-visit!“

“Jessica was the best and we will come back for her“

“Excellent pizza! The pizza and the ingredients are always well made and fresh. The pizza still tastes like it did years ago. It is delicious! The people are friendly as well. We normally go to the Denison one but it was closed and we really wanted our pizza place.“

“Very accommodating and great food!“

“Came in from out of town and they were soooo welcoming!! Made us feel right at home and remembered us when we came in every morning. Gave us some yummy sweets for the road. Can’t recommend enough. Will be back here for sure!! 🩷🩷🩷“

“Highly recommend! Delicious Pizza and great options if you don’t feel like pizza. Try their wings or cheesy fries! Yumm. Fast and good service as well!“

“First time at the new location. Good food and great service. Workers were attentive and fun! Welcome to this part of town!“

“I LOVE this family owned business in Ohio City! The young lady at the counter encouraged me to try their baba (because I really hate it everywhere else I’ve had it) and it was INCREDIBLE. Everything on this menu is fresh, flavorful and intentional - there’s no way to go wrong.“

“Good Pizza, I went in with very low expectations.. thinking it’s just another pizza place,basic. I was WRONG!! I Love the crust on this pizza the toppings pair well together and my two favorites on the regular menu are Margheritta, and white.. They offer Italian soda’s in a can, the limonata is my preference for that.. and they have tiramisu as well the seating is comfortable. They have a few alcoholic beverages also beer, high noon, sun cruisers..The pizza slices are currently $4.25/slice a pie (8slices) is around $26 depending on what you pick.. Overall they win my vote for when I want pizza..“

“Starting with the Blue Point Oysters, they were exceptionally fresh and paired beautifully with the cabernet mignonette and cocktail sauce. The balance of flavors made for a light and refreshing start to the meal. Moving on to the Lobster Mashed Potatoes, they were rich, creamy, and indulgent, though slightly heavy. The lobster pieces were generous, but I found the dish could use a touch more seasoning to enhance the lobster’s natural sweetness. The Pan Roasted Striped Bass was well-cooked, with a crispy exterior and a moist, flaky interior. It was paired nicely with simple yet flavorful sides, though the seasoning was a bit inconsistent. A minor critique would be that the flavors, while balanced, didn’t stand out as much as I expected from a dish at this price point. Lastly, the Crispy Brussels Sprouts were a delightful surprise, with a perfect crunch and a slightly sweet glaze that contrasted well with the vegetable’s natural bitterness. This dish added a nice variety of texture to the meal. Overall, the quality of the seafood was undeniable, but a little more attention to seasoning and consistency in the dishes could elevate the experience. However, the ambiance and service certainly made up for these small flaws, making it a great place for a special occasion“

“So tasty and so many options with super friendly staff!“

“Many fun games& the good was delicious“

“I got my food to go after I’d had a cocktail. The swinging benches across the street are a perfect place to sit and eat your divine tastes of FAT CAT’s … I had the salmon burger and Brussels sprouts and a Purple haze cocktail at the bar. The sandwich was literally perfect! The avocado was the perfect touch! Always a treat! Tastes and Travels gives FAT CATS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Bookhouse is an absolute gem. Amazing beers in a variety of interesting styles, friendly & attentive bartenders, and a nice relaxing environment. You'll feel welcome no matter who you are. Ask the bartenders about the history of the building if you're a history buff, it's extremely cool and unique. If you're like me and enjoy going out for a beer, but want to be somewhere you can have a conversation without sports or other TV blaring at you, this is the place to be!“

“Really delicious for such a lowkey place on a strip next to the Cleveland Clinic. The people there were really nice and there are lots of board games available to help create a cozy atmosphere as best they can in that kind of space. I got the Cali Steak and it was so good I’ll definitely be back next time I’m at the Clinic.“

“the best food and service every single time!! We drive from Canton just to eat here. I wish I could remember our waitresses name we had last night. She was probably the best server we have ever had!!! The sea bass was amazing!“

“Great spot with incredibly friendly and helpful staff. Very relaxed atmosphere with top quality microbrew, cider, mead and cocktail options. I appreciate the no or low alcohol menu as well. There are games and tables available. Medium sized space with outdoor seating in the milder seasons.“

“It’s been a while since I’ve dined there. Went to breakfast with coworkers this morning, and I wasn’t disappointed. I work in Cleveland and live an hour SE and we have noting close to this place. The enviroment, food, and staff, is top notch.“

“We always have a great meal at Korea House. I crave their budae jjigae“

“We had our daughter’s graduation party on 5/11/24. They made our experience wonderful for our party of 15. The food, beer and drinks were great! The table by the wall was perfect for our food to be set up and at 4:30, we could chat and it wasn’t noisy at all. Thank you to your staff for allowing is to create a beautiful memory!“

“Had the filet this time, and coming from someone who is very particular about their meat it was cooked a perfect med-rare! The quality of the meat for both our dishes was phenomenal (rack of lamb and filet), such that it puts some steakhouses to shame! The quality of the tuna in our appetizer was also top notch. They always have a nice selection of specials here from appetizers to dessert. Needless to say, this place lives up to its name! Waitress forgot to put in our salad course, but worked out for the best because we got to have two desserts 🥳“

“Hands down my favorite place for ice cream. Unlimited options, and awesome prices.“

“Highly, highly recommend. Great (informal) community atmosphere. You can get small plates from multiple different vendors to make a meal or order all from one place. I’ve tried 5 of the different food vendors so far and all have been great. My favorite might the Salvadoran stall, which has great pupusas and smoothies. This place just opened and it’s great to see that it’s doing well. Definitely worth driving to even if you don’t live close.“

“First time here and it's amazing. Very clean and calm environment. I will definitely be back.“

“My daughter came to Cleveland for a girls day and stopped at the cafe for lunch. I got the wild mushroom melt sandwich..absolutely amazing! Don’t change a thing about it! It is fantastic!! Definitely worth the 90 min drive!! Good job!!!“

“No food at this location. Beer and souvenirs only. Service was the best of any brewery we visited in Cleveland.

The Prosperity Hefeweizen was good, not a German Hefeweizen but still good.

The Citramax was way too Citra.

The Ginger Wheat was GINGER! Wheat.

The Buckeye Peanut Butter Chocolate Stout was too much Peanut Butter and Chocolate and not enough stout.

Neither of these was bad, just over flavored.

The Octoberfest was our favorite.

We are beer snobs so come and enjoy.“

“Not overpriced and great flavors smoothies 🥰“

“it was a beautiful day, line moved fast , service was very friendly, 2 banana splits, they are 👍 ,hot fudge sundae, amazing, and the best for last, the brownie fudge sundae, very good, but rich!! but a treat once a year so great, their milkshakes are awesome and amazing, no matter what kind you get.. and their ice cream is great and well worth the trip!! btw, we went on Father's day, my dad loved it!! enjoy your visit at honey hut when y go..!!! we did, thank you so much honey hut .“

“Best of the best! Live in Youngstown but everytime we travel for work, it is a guaranteed stop for our team. The staff is great and the food is beyond consistent if that makes any sense. The bread is unique but familiar. Have a hard time not getting the turkey so I’ll usually snag a sandwich for when I get home. DONT SLEEP ON THIS PLACE AND IF THE LINE IS BUSY KEEP CALLING IF ITS NOT PAST 2pm. Good chance they are sold out if that’s the case 😉“
