50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Dallas

“Just had dinner at Mot Hai Ba. This place is hands down one of top culinary experiences I’ve ever had. The quaint but perfect atmosphere, the top notch service from host, staff and waiters, to the creative and flavorful dishes, were all outstanding. Each dish is unique and creative with a fantastic combination of Vietnamese’s savoriness with just the right touch of French influence.
We enjoyed the banh bao (so good!), Vietnamese rice cake, the pork and the garlic noodles. We were complimented the chard tempura. We also had the apple dessert, the perfect sweet ending with just a touch of salt. I only wish I had more room in my stomach for more. Our server Mata was outstanding he gently guided us through this culinary experience with the just the right amount of direction and he knew every detail about the restaurant. He really made the experience that much better.
If you are in the DFW area it is worth getting there from wherever you! Thank you Mot Hai Ba.“

“Definitely a place I want to Come back to.“

“This is absolutely the BEST restaurant in Dallas, TX. Hands down, no debate. From the top tier service/hospitality shown as soon as you walk through the door to the delicious, creative cocktails, and finally to the AMAZING cuisine. You won’t find higher quality anywhere else. It’s an incredible dining experience anyone will love!“

“We come to Dallas multiple times a year to visit family and attend to business but had not yet tried Barsotti’s. After being recommend to us off the Michelin guide, we decided to try it. Wow, just wow we were all blown away! If I could give this restaurant 10 stars I would. Everything from start to finish was absolutely devine. The portions are really large so we ended up over ordering for the table but it was worth it to try everything. My personal favorite was the Sunday gravy but my husband couldn’t stop talking about the arugula salad. We already can’t wait to come back around Christmas!“

“Delicious food and drinks relaxing atmosphere.“

“Quality place We had a wonderful experience I would highly recommend it“

“We love this place. Been a loyal customer for several years now. Service is amazing. Great atmosphere!“

“Food was delicious, a clearly deserved Michelin recommendation.

It was the first time I tried Vietnamese food and it was full of flavor, but nothing risky.

The beverages were also a nice surprise, specially the mocktales.

Highly recommended if you want to eat good food, you are very hungry and want to have a quiet night with a few friends.“

“Rex’s Seafood and Market - Dallas, Tx Les meilleurs huîtres jamais goûtés!! Raspberry juste incroyable!!!“

“Nice restaurant in a gentrifying neighborhood. Food was prepared with care and presented similarly. The pacing was leisurely, which is our preference although our last course took a bit longer than expected. Again the food was very nice but I wouldn't describe it as spectacular. I was a little surprised by the automatic 20% gratuity for a table of two. Not that the service did not deserve it, but, in my experience higher end restaurants do better by leaving it to the discretion of the diner. I would normally leave 25% but since they already included it I left it as it was. Overall, the restaurant was adequate for its pricing but I can't say I was wowed by it.“

“HG Sply Co is a must return spot, attracting hungry folks with the promise of yummy food w/ none of the artificial BS along with excellent service, i can confidently say they delivered. they handled our group of 7 with ease and our food came incredibly quick! definitely going to visit again!“

“I finally was able to try Pecan Lodge. Not only was the BBQ delicious, Their smoked wings were amazing. I liked them the best without any sauce so I could enjoy the real smoke flavor of the meat. And as a bonus, Mike, the Manager and his staff, were friendly and helpful. 4 STARS TO ALL!“

“Great place to share with the love one. It’s amazing. Great food and drinks. Totally recommended“

“A huge fav! We were supporters of Small Brewpub (even before it opened) and although we were sad to see them close, we heard then that Aaron had something brewing (pun intended) near Fair Park. We watched the progress through COVID and after as Wriggly Tin took shape. When it finally opened, we were blown away! What's not to love? - Aaron's beers (finally, Black Pepper Pilsner again!) - cool cocktails! - fantastic pizza! - beautiful indoor dining space with the same hand-crafted vibe as Small! - a fun, dog and kid-friendly outdoor dining space (now with a stage)! - a restaurant that believes in paying employees a fair wage! - digital menu, ordering and payment! On top of all that, it's been great reconnecting with Small founders like Aaron and Josh, plus it was great seeing our good friend Greyson (who were meet when he was at the original On Rotation location) join the staff here. Do yourself a favor... check it out!“

“We had such a great experience. Lizz was our server and she was amazing!!! This was our family’s first time here and we were celebrating our son for earning straight A’s on his report card. They gave him the most delicious donuts and Lizz made really excellent dish recommendations. We will return for sure!!“

“We ate here, New Year’s Eve and every single thing we got from the cocktails to every course of food was excellent! Our waitress gave excellent service! I definitely recommend“

“Thoroughly enjoyed dinner here with my friends. Music was there but not intrusive. Staff were friendly and efficient. The food was very flavorful and everybody enjoyed their meal. I definitely ate too much of the chips and the cilantro lime crema“

“Man this was some good eating I tried my wife’s and kids food it was all awesome the puffy tacos were the best 🌮“

“Authentic Turkish food and beautiful old home that will transport you to the Mediterranean and provide an amazing experience you can only get in Turkey. The menu is large with many delicious options and the drinks are flowing. In the heart of Dallas with downtown views.“

“Great intro today by my neph.....“

“The Dolly Llama welcome to Ponte Vedra Outstanding treat for the family! Good Luck Wendy, Josh & family“

“The location on Highway 6 was Awesome, my drive thru server was Cody. He was Awesome, professional, funny and got my order down to a tee. Come on down to the best Taco place in Sugar Land Tx.. #1 Customer Dee“

“Best bar in Dallas! Great food- epic atmosphere- and killer service! 10/10 I love this pub!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We celebrated our 24th anniversary at Rise Soufflé in Tulsa Utica Square, and it was absolutely perfect. From the charming ambiance to the flawless service, every detail made the evening unforgettable. We started with their famous Marshmallow Soup — a creamy tomato and carrot bisque with tangy goat cheese “marshmallows.” Truly unique and so comforting. For entrées, we shared the Southwest Chicken Soufflé and the Mac & Cheese Soufflé. Both were divine — airy yet rich, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully presented. I finished with the Blueberry Soufflé, which was bursting with flavor and beautifully airy. My husband had the Crème Brûlée, with its perfectly crisp top and creamy custard — classic and flawless. Our Server, Andrelle, went above and beyond — friendly, attentive, and made us feel like VIPs. Thank you, Rise, for making our anniversary dinner feel magical. We’ll definitely be back! 💙“

“Bittersweet holiday buffet experience. Delicious food, wide selection, including my favorite NM pot roast, lovely atmosphere, attentive, exceptional, and impeccable service. We will miss the Zodiac Room so much. Lovely memories throughout the years.“

“This place exceeded expectations on every level. Atmosphere was cozy for date night dinner before my wife and I went to see Nate Bargatze. The Food at all ends were alive with flavor kicking. The service was attentive and caring, just excellent. We started with The spinach artichoke dip. amazing, the chips (I believe their famous Italian nacho chips and homemade Garlic bread slices came together like a flavor family. My wife ordered the Primavera with chicken and the cream Parmesan sauce. out worldly, amazing. I would eat that sauce on everything. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Penne. A wonderful fusion of Sharp sundried tomatoes, sauteed Garlic cloves sauce and chicken. the spice was excellent as well, not overpowering like the star of the show, but rather a supporting actor that let you know they were there. The portions were very generous. don't expect to finish your entire dish, we went hungry and left with 1/3 of each of our entrees. I would recommend this place to anyone in Dallas, or going to Dallas..I would even recommend to the owners to venture down to Houston, as we could use this in our city. You would be missing out if you didn't come through this place at least once.“

“This pub is a real treasure! 🍻 The environment is warm and lively, especially suitable for gathering and chatting with friends“

“Excellent food great concept“

“Had a great experience at Café Momentum during my short stay in Dallas. Amazing food, welcoming staff.“

“Excellent food, great atmosphere and fantastic service! We loved the bartender Emma as well!“

“I absolutely fell in love with this place and I'm not even vegan lol. The service was magnificent, accompanied buy excellent food and conversation. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. I mean EVERYTHING was amazing! The seasoning!!“

“Amazing how some restaurants have such small menus but this defines the idea that they don't NEED to offer quantity, simply fantastic, DEFINITELY on the loud side but rad atmosphere and it was out of mind virtually from the jump, fantastic time in every way, SHALL MOST CERTAINLY RETURN...great memories❤️“

“Southern service was great, we went to celebrate and the atmosphere truly set the tone. My partner was very critical of the food, but particularly enjoyed the sides/fixins the most(on top of desserts **chef’s kiss for dimple done right). Came in right towards the end of happy hour, a time was had thanks to our great server, thanks guys!“

“Oh my gosh… I have found the best bagels outside of NYC. This is coming from an extreme bagel snob. Thank you!“

“What a find!! Prices were reasonable and the quality of food was awesome. We will be back. I’d rate it a 5“

“The entire staff — and especially Lace — are so attentive. From the moment you're seated, you feel genuinely cared for in a way that sets the tone for an exceptional experience. I tried the Michelin-level tasting menu, and it was nothing short of incredible. Every course was beautifully crafted, balanced, and packed with flavor — a thoughtful progression that carried a festive spirit perfect for the season. Between the exceptional service and unforgettable dishes, this continus to be one of my favorite dining experiences. Shhh. Gatekeep this place. Don't tell people about it. Just quietly know it's great.“

“Good food! Festive atmosphere!“

“I experienced nothing but good service at the Frisco location! My son & I food was served by the time I paid for everything and it was good. Would definitely return anytime I’m in the area.“

“Love Renny’s! The food and service are consistent! Delicious and served hot! Service is exceptional! My new favorite!“

“it's a New York type of Vibe. Small but Quaint!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ziziki’s totally blew me away! The Avgolemono Soup with chicken was super comforting and full of flavor. I also had the Greek salad, and wow—their Greek dressing might be the best I’ve ever tasted. Seriously addictive. The Chicken Souvlaki was tender, perfectly seasoned, and just delicious all around. Everything was fresh and so tasty. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be ordering again soon!“

“Love this place. It’s a regular.“

“The entire experience is amazing!“

“By FAR one of the best collections of Mezcal you’ll find North of the border. Excellent service, incredible food, and only steps from Fair Park and the Music Hall. Highly recommend this gem!!“

“The owners make this one of the best restaurants in Texas and maybe of all time. Excellent lamb and chicken, soft enough to fall right off the bone, with light but flavorful seasoning and generous portions of both rice and protein. The owners are extremely accommodating and hospitable, personally greeting you right when you walk in and introducing you to their menu and specials, then regularly checking in on you and asking how the meal and experience is. They're both really charming and friendly, and seem to have dedicated much of their lives to perfecting these simple dishes. Some of the best Persian food I've ever had, which is no surprise when it feels this homemade. The inside looks like a little deli from the 90s, very simple and clean. Cannot give a higher recommendation.“

“4/19/25. The general manager, Ish, is a treasure! I have never seen a manager more engaged with the customers and his staff. He seated us and took our drink order and stopped by several times to check on us. You could tell how much he is loved by all the customers greeting him with hugs. He is always impeccably dressed and his signature hair is fabulous. We were seated by the bar and I’ve never seen a more efficient group behind the bar. The bartender was making multiple drinks from the extensive drink menu with ease. His bar back was on top of it as well. We only wish we were closer (we’re north of Denton) to go more often instead of just when the Dallas Stars are playing.“

“Great restaurant…check it out“

“The bar staff especially is always outstanding. They always make us feel like one of the family! I honestly have nothing to complain about, the entire experience is top notch!!“

“Great coffee! Friendly staff🤓“

“Hibiki exceeded all expectations! Our server, Shade, provided exceptional service—attentive, professional, and friendly throughout our entire visit. We ordered the Who’s Your Daddy and Holy Moly rolls, both of which delivered the perfect level of spice and flavor. The sushi was impressively fresh, beautifully presented, and truly a highlight of the evening. The restaurant’s ambiance was warm and inviting, with a distinctive New Orleans-inspired atmosphere in the heart of Deep Ellum. Every detail, from the quality of the food to the attentive service, made for an outstanding dining experience. Hibiki is highly recommended for anyone seeking elevated sushi, bold flavors, and impeccable hospitality.“
