50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Highland Village

“We celebrated my daughter’s bridal shower in the Vintage Room recently. It was so nice! The food was incredible and the room was beautiful. Both Jenn, the owner, and Sara, our event hostess, were a pleasure to work with. If you’re looking for a place to have an event- I highly recommend Sip + Savor!“

“Absolutely love the loaded teas. Try some of her sour flavors!“

“We just are here for the first time and everything was amazing! The food, the atmosphere, the service, all of it was perfect! Annabelle was our server and she was amazing and attentive! We have a new favorite dining place!“

“They catered out "Marriage & Mimosa" Brunch send off on Sunday. It was all amazing. When we ran out of food, the delivered more and it was even better! lol! From the Bagels, eggs to the tater tot casseroles and wings. I would 100% use them again.“

“The staff at Great American Cookies (1400 Shoal Creek #110) delivered delicious cookies and turned a lost bet into pure comedy gold! My brother Mitch sashayed in, looking like a Cookie Fairy. A bearded man decked out in a frilly pink tutu, a flamboyant feather boa, and tights! They had him prancing across the street like a giddy flamingo, twirling with exaggerated flair, striking absurd poses, and even curtseying with a flourish!

Mitch threw himself into the silliness, pointing his toes with dainty precision and strutting with a sway that left us all wondering if he was secretly loving his bearded ballerina gig a little too much—way too comfortable in that embarrassing getup! The staff roared with laughter over his spot-on toe point, eagerly asking if he’d return again, and posting those hilarious pics online to flaunt their fun-loving store spirit.

And let’s not forget the actual cookies, because they’re the reason we’d come back again. These treats are next-level: soft, gooey, and baked fresh on the spot. Everything was packaged beautifully, stayed fresh for the delivery Mitch had to make (still in that tutu, bless him), and tasted like heaven. Prices are great, and the store’s spotless, with the staff’s infectious humor keeping the vibe pure sugary fun. Five stars for the amazing treats and for helping with our pink princess!

We can’t recommend the cookies or the staff enough—thank you for all the help and laughs!!“

“Clean, nice environment, great service, and delicious coffee. Barista is hard working, friendly, always keeping the place organized and clean. great work ethic! My Butter Beer coffee was delicious!“

“Greg and staff make the best Detroit Pizza in town! My wife liked a competitors' Pizza until I introduced her to Motor City Pizza. She was sold by the first bite!“

“Love this Cava! Dejuana and her team always do a great job taking care of the guest.“

“I have been drinking boba for the better part of 20 years, and I have tried dozens of places. I expected a standard, subpar boba tea place when I went here for the first time. It is the closest boba place to my home, and, upon walking in, you don’t expect much from the place. It’s a small space with post-it notes as decor.

Little did I know, it is the best boba tea I have ever had, and it’s now my go-to for any kind of “comfort food.” My significant other also loves their drinks and food!

Milk T absolutely does not disappoint. I haven’t had a bad drink here, and I haven’t had a bad taiyaki here either. The cheddar cheese taiyaki is like the grilled-cheese sandwich you never knew you needed in your life. The owner is patient and efficient.

Please, give this place a try. It’s hard to find places like this.“

“Had a great experience at Dream Hola Lounge. The hookah was smooth, flavorful, and lasted the whole time without getting harsh. The service really stood out too—our server was attentive, checked on us regularly, and made sure the hookah and everything at the table was taken care of without us having to ask. Great atmosphere, good music, and a comfortable place to hang out with friends. You can tell they actually care about the customer experience. Ask for the KB mix gum mint 50% 25 % mint and 25% mango lassi.“

“The food is impeccable and atmosphere is amazing! Cant go wrong with anything on the menu! 5⭐️“

“I had an amazing experience at JINYA Ramen Bar! The food was outstanding—everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. The ramen was rich and perfectly prepared, and you can tell they put a lot of care into every dish.

What really made the visit exceptional was our server, Sol. Sol was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. They made great recommendations, checked on us at just the right times, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. Excellent service like that turns a great meal into a memorable one.

If you’re looking for incredible ramen and top-notch customer service, I highly recommend JINYA Ramen Bar. We’ll definitely be back, and I hope we’re lucky enough to have Sol as our server again!“

“I am obsessed with this place!! The food, the wine, the vibe check all the boxes for me. Traditional Italian fare and some fun contemporary dishes as well. I love coming here for special occasions when I still am looking for delicious comfort food. My only regret is that I didn’t know about it sooner!“

“Nice atmosphere.. Staff is attentive ...Meal was spot on!“

“Great service, Yummy food:)“

“There are 3 things I love about Korner Café. The first is the wonderful food, next is the waitstaff that pays attention to detail and are very attentive. The last thing is the friendly atmosphere and the other customers. Thanks Korner Café.“

“Kenzie was an amazing server, serving us with excellence highly recommend her! Thanks Kenzie“

“Awesome friendly place with great food/drink/and great service from a very caring staff. This great Mexican cuisine comes top down from Lynn and Dave-awesome hardworking partners/owners who make sure you'll come back again and again- we have for several years now at least weekly. Parties/ events is another specialty for these folks- we hosted a very special family occasion there on the patio and will never forget it! Bonus: great live music on the patio most weekend nights. We highly recommend!“

“The Best Italian Dining Experience in Denton! Osteria il Muro is an absolute gem! From the moment we walk in, James, the manager, greets us with genuine warmth and excitement, making us feel like long‑lost friends every time. Elsa is an absolute treasure — she treats us like family and delivers the best service we’ve ever had. And the chef? An absolute artist! Every dish is a masterpiece, from the delicate scallop crudo to the savory tri‑tip special, and the desserts… I’m not exaggerating when I say they make me want to cry — they’re that delicious. We never want to leave this magical place. A true five‑star experience from start to finish!“

“This restaurant definitely deserves its 5 stars. The food is 10/10, the restaurant itself is very clean and cozy. The staff is also amazing, very professional and super friendly. The calzones and strombolis are huge! Best Italian place in the area hands down. If I could give them 10 stars I would :-)“

“We were visiting from out of town and a local friend recommended this restaurant. My tween daughter and I had dinner here, and it was phenomenal! The food was so good, I went back and got takeout too. Can’t say enough about the delicious, clean food! We had fish tacos, smoked chicken salad and a small Brussels sprouts salad. Picky eater daughter had the kids chicken tacos and raved! Yum!“

“Bowl Mami was an amazing dining experience! The bowls were fresh, flavorful, and made with high-quality ingredients. Every bite was perfectly balanced, the portions were generous, and the presentation was excellent. Friendly service, a welcoming atmosphere, and delicious food make this a place we'll definitely visit again!“

“🍳 Sunday Brunch Review – J. Macklin’s (Coppell, TX) 🍳 My wife and I stopped in for Sunday brunch at J. Macklin’s and overall had a great experience! The atmosphere was lively but comfortable, perfect for a weekend meal. We did have an extended wait (they were out of biscuits 😅), but I have to give major credit to the management and wait staff. They handled it extremely well and even offered a discount for the inconvenience. Truly phenomenal service, they turned the situation around and made us feel taken care of. We tried the Bacon Board, which has a fun concept but could use a little more creativity. Just maple syrup on bacon didn’t quite hit the mark, but with a little flair this could easily be their signature appetizer. Now the entrées were exceptional. ✔️ My wife’s Southern Benny was flavorful and perfectly executed. ✔️ I had the grilled cheese with a hearty tomato soup and fries and let me just say, those fries were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Bottom line: 🔹 Great vibe, 🔹 excellent main dishes, 🔹 and top-tier service. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Genuinely makes me want to move back to Denton went here twice different days waiting to start graduation photography. Ordered to go the first time as i didnt know what to expect. I arrived early and walked around the beautiful place and went to the counter when it shouldve been ready and it was!! Second day I went and sat in and got the breakfast bowl. It was delicious with my hot mocha!! Drinks/food were made fast and tasted amazing please go and try!“

“Sidney is great .personable and takes care of the customer needs“

“We love it here! One of our favorite places to visit. My happy place is on the porch! Oh and the coffee is delicious 😃“

“If you’re looking for the best cup of coffee in Denton, you have to check out Record Coffee Supply. The coffee is consistently amazing and every detail feels intentional. You can tell they genuinely care about quality and creating a welcoming experience. Easily one of my favorite spots in Denton. ☕👏“

“Nice modern restaurant with large bar. Open air with screens on one side. Food is not typical Tex Mex & most items arerather tasty but expensive. Service is top notch & staff really friendly. Good place to meet friends & easy to carry on conversation.“

“Creamy Seoul is my weekend non-negotiable!
The donuts are consistently perfect—soft, fresh, and honestly addictive. And the Korean iced coffee is next level… like I think about it during the week.
What really makes this place special is the service. They remember my boyfriend Joel and me every time we come in, and it just makes the whole experience feel personal and welcoming in a way most places don’t even try to do.
Easily a 100-star experience every single visit.“

“Love this place“

“I stopped by 3 Nations while visiting friends in town, and overall it’s a great spot. The vibe is welcoming and the beer selection was solid—something for everyone—and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. That said, it was hot inside. Even just sitting and chatting, we were uncomfortably warm, which made it hard to fully relax and enjoy the experience. I’m not sure if it was a one-off issue or just how the space handles summer weather, but some fans or improved airflow would make a big difference. Still, I’d definitely give it another try—hopefully on a cooler day!“

“The only issue is they didn’t have Chardonnay ☹️“

“$5 per person to play is a great price, they have a huge selection of games! We just got some sodas so I can't really comment on the food. It does get a bit loud in the evening making it hard to talk/read instructions so I would recommend bringing earplugs to put in while reading.

Amending my review because I didn't realize there were cushy seating options for smaller groups, thank you for letting me know! :)“

“Really good burgers and fries 🥰 That sauce was 🔥“

“the staff here is awesome!! love this Dutch Bros!“

“Great food truck, the food is delicious and the owner is a nice guy. You can’t go wrong with any of their food, but the Medi-Tex bowl is my favorite. We’ve eaten at his truck in Denton, as well as the food truck spot in Northlake. Great truck!“

“Great place to unwind and relax“

“This is by far my favorite pizza ever! We found them accidentally as we were looking for food delivery late night and they were one of the few open and we are SO happy we found Zalat! The pizza is amazing. Always fresh, reheats great and the unique flavors are just perfection. Don’t forget about the dipping sauce they add. LOVE!!“

“The atmosphere, the vibe, the music is on target. The waitstaff is very knowledgeable and pleasant. The food did not disappoint.“

“Buen pollo y pescado empanado“

“Everytime I've been here the food is amazing! They have a great selection of toppings for your pizza. Service is always really great too, my fav pizza place in Denton!“
