50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants River Oaks

“Burgers we're great. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The server kept coming by asking us if we wanted to refill our drinks. So nice. The atmosphere is just what you want in a burger joint, kind of down home small town feel to it.“

“This unassuming burger joint has amazing food. So much food I had to put half my burger away for later. 10/10 for just the fries n onion rings alone! Best burger in town.“

“Blown away by how much we liked this place. Loved the unique flavor combinations and the service. The atmosphere was perfect, we sat on the patio. The crispy Brussels sprouts hummus was the best hummus I’ve ever had. Got the aji steak rissotto which was great (spicier than I had hoped but my hubby loved it). Only complaint was that it needed a bit more meat for the price. I got the peppered chicken and mashed potatoes. Loved it. For dessert the blackberry cobbler was even better than we expected. The corn soufflé was delicious- like a mix between corn bread pudding and creamed corn. Came for valentines dinner and the staff was phenomenal for how busy they were. The young woman who seated us told us she was new and she was a delight. Our waitress was Isabella and she gave us all great suggestions and was attentive all evening but not annoying. We’ll be back!“

“Great service,delicious food!“

“I love this place. The owner is so friendly and nice and the ice cream is just awesome! They have the old school snow cones with the crunchy ice that I absolutely love. Me and my grandkids are regulars here. Give them a try if you haven’t already. You wont be disappointed!“

“Great atmosphere! Cool location and dog friendly. Pups everywhere. Will definitely recommend and be back.“

“Today was my first day of getting to go and try the food. I’ve been wanting to visit for quite some time so my husband and I went on a lunch date. We got the tacos, the loaded potato, the elotes, and the jalapeño poppers. Everything on the menu looked amazing so we had to try a little bit of each. Next time I will be getting the sandwich because the tacos were really dry. Everything else was amazing. Bad choice for my first time eating there, as I passed everyone having a sandwich I wished I would’ve ordered one cause they really looked good. I can’t wait to go back and try something new and the bread pudding. I will stick to the meat and sides. It’s a no for me on the brisket tacos.“

“Excellent burgers and fresh hot fries and the service is excellent“

“Excellent food and atmosphere!“

“I had the best experience here, my first time. Had a fabulous cocktail made by my server, rock shrimp was amazing, crab cake salad was another amazing dish, chock full of lump crab. My server was fabulous and the manager was also very attentive and looked after me as I was dining alone. I definitely plan on visiting again! Delicious!“

“🙌🏻 🍤 ♥️ the food here is AMAZING!“

“Brisa our waitress was exceptional! Great service all around! The food was fantastic! The cherry on top was the French Press 🤌🏽“

“Best sushi I have had in DFW area. Delicious! Great quality worth the price because it is that good. Best quality and preparation combined with excellent service.“

“The store closes at 10 AM.

I walked in with only glazed and chocolate left and no option to het cinnamon rolls substitute for donuts. Not even if you count it as 2 donuts.

However, the owner is VERY friendly and generous and pointed me to another donut shop nearby.“

“Our very first time to dine here. A very impressive spacious restaurant that accommodates many guests. They are very good at handling bigger groups of guests. Very family friendly. Two things I thought were especially good: they strive to source local and the menu is not overwhelming. The menu is designed to do a select group of entrees and do them very well. Although the menu is not huge there is something for everyone. The wall of whiskeys from all around the world was amazing. The service was top tier and all staff supported each other. We will be back.“

“Press Cafe continues to deliver on every level. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was perfect, and the entire experience felt effortless.
A special shout-out to Kada for her outstanding customer service on the phone. She listened carefully, understood exactly what we needed, and made sure everything was handled smoothly. That level of attention and care makes a real difference.
From start to finish, it was a great experience. Consistently solid food, a welcoming environment, and service that genuinely stands out. Highly recommend.“

“Delicious plant based food, with generous portions! Their daily specials make it an affordable lunch! Love the atmosphere and the staff is very friendly and helpful!“

“🙌🏻 🍤 ♥️ the food here is AMAZING!“

“The best burger in Texas , I love it“

“I’ve been meeting friends there for several months to share good times, good food, and good games. They have a lovely assortment of both foods and games. Their little pot pies are unique and delicious! Plan to meet up with some of your friends soon. It’s a great place to hang out. It would be a great date night, too!“

“Order and pay at the counter, then have a seat and wait shortly for your delicious meal to be delivered to your table. Great value and hospitality await you here at Big Joe's, not to mention the good food. We thoroughly enjoyed a slice of pizza each and we split a lasagna. If you find yourself on this side of town, stop at Big Joe's. You won't be sorry.“

“Made a reservation. Was greeted as soon as we walked in the door. It was a chilly day and the hostess chose a table close to the heater without us having to ask. Very thoughtful. Server was attentive and friendly. Food is always very good. Ambiance at this location is nice, next to the trinity river and near shopping.“

“This is seriously a great burger, and what a friendly staff! Will definitely visit again next time we're doing AC repairs in Ft. Worth!“

“Great local place with friendly service and live music performances. Hint hint.“

“We drive from Irving to Fort Worth to get beers at Martin House. I love the Tap room. My favorite beer is Silk Route. I’ve had a lotta Juicy Hazy IPAs in DFW, but this has been my personal favorite so far.

Also, most importantly, they have the best customer service. They take their sweet time to explain about the beer, special offers at the taproom, and also educate on the available To-Go beer in a detailed fashion.

As a beer enthusiast, I don’t mind driving 35 miles just to get good beer and great customer service.

Special shout out to Jessica, Hailey and Clayton (apologies if I got the spelling wrong). They’re my favorite bartenders. The service I get from them is TOP NOTCH QUALITY..“

“This little spot is a rare gym in the area, there aren’t many coffee shops near by. The coffee is great and the staff always remembers my name which I think is so sweet. The firehouse pottery shop next door is nice to walk through while you’re drinking your coffee.“

“Great $12 all you can eat every Wednesday!“

“WOWWWWW. Our first time here last night and it’s my new favorite restaurant. There was a wait but we just grabbed a drink and waited. Ordered skillet Mac and cheese to start WHEWWW!!! It was so delicious. I ordered the petite filet with jalapeño potatoes which were unreal. My partner had the chicken parm.
Our server, Will, was sweet and attentive. Everyone that works there really works as a team which is so refreshing to see.
We will be back by next week for sure 🤍“

“Loved the Family Feel Great Food and Great Location!!!!! We Loved Every Bit of Our Experience!!!! Thank You Picchi Pacchi“

“Saw a post about this place on the fort worth foodies page and it's close to my house and I heard they have Birra Egg rolls. So I HAD TO TRY THEM. OMG. So delicious, great service. I will definitely be back.“

“Very good coffee shop in downtown Fort Worth. One of my to-gos. Good coffee. The baristas are welcoming. There’s a beautiful view of Burnett Park and the it’s one of the few shops that stay open late. I walk to it, but apparently there’s free validated parking.“

“Rachel was fantastic!! Super attentive and patient with modifications made. Her level of attention and care made us feel taken care of!! The food was so good!! Loved the veggie quesadilla and the fiesta fajita. Very flavorful, piping hot and did I mention yummy. This was our first time and we can’t wait to come back. Wonderful service made everything even better!! And the frozen watermelon margarita… was EVERYTHING!!“

“It’s the best. Just great food and atmosphere. Been going to Piola for years.“

“Best Egg Rolls in town“

“We went here for a birthday party on a Saturday evening and we are hooked. They have a great selection of beers, variety of food choice, plus plenty of room to hang out. There is an outside area too but it was so cold no one was out there. They have frequent specials and tonight it was a macaroni and cheese pairing with select beers. Kids and dogs are welcome too.“
