50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants West Lake Hills

“My first encounter was dinner brought to me from a friend after I had surgery. When I was finally able to get to the restaurant I was pleasantly surprised at what they offered. THH has a bigger menu than I expected. Pancakes, breakfast tacos, lunch plates and much more. Recently I was at a women’s event and it was catered by THH. They did an amazing job serving 120 ladies and can also do smaller events like bridal/wedding parties for morning of events. They also sponsored a 5k run we had. Rob and his crew are great to work with. 👍🏻👍🏻“

“Would eat here every day if I could. This place is a go to when I have friends visit from out of town. I LOVE it!! There is another poke place closer to where I live and even with most of the same toppings and items I still will pick Poke House every time!!“

“We went to Hat Creek for a birthday party. The employees were very good and we had an amazing experience. The playground is also very good for children who would like to play It was clean and organized. The Manager and staff were great and helpful. I recommend it 100%.“

“A delightful laid-back counter service eatery serving fresh salads, bowls and wraps. Produce served by the Flower Child are sometimes organic. Their produce and fruit buying is guided by “the dirty dozen” list and presumably also by “The Clean Fifteen” (ask your AI app what these are)
In any case the Flying Avocado wrap I had contained roast turkey, Gouda, romaine, tomato, avocado and hummus. It was delicious. My daughter had a delightful vegetarian salad and my wife ate a delicious Mediterranean chicken kabob bowl. They both drank water and then finished with chocolate chip cookies. I drank a draft IPA.
We sat outside on their covered patio and enjoyed the spring weather and though the restaurant is a little far from our house in Pflugerville, I’m sure we will be back.
The toilets were clean and fully stocked.“

“Honestly fantastic. Im surprised by the current rating tbh. I got a kiwi bowl but id just say thay judging by the quality of the bowl, their ingredients are top quality too and the atmosphere was very chill too 😊. Ill be returning for sure.“

“I just wanted to leave a review and let everyone know that the amazing employee, Sarah, at the Pinkberry Westbank (3300 Bee Caves Road, Westlake Hills, TX 78746) location was an absolute angel! She was amazing and went above and beyond during our visit on 3/1/25!! She had such a great attitude and did a fantastic job handling our large order that included a regular & large yogurt as well as a few Take Home Yogurts since we are from San Antonio! As she was helping us with our order, about 4-5 customers walked in. She was calm, fast, efficient, and all with a smile on her face. She knocked out everyone’s orders while providing a great experience. This is our favorite Frozen Yogurt and Pinkberry location and we love to drive to Austin when we can because we love the great service and amazing yogurt. Sarah is definitely a one of a kind employee and I hope you all appreciate her and take care of her. Thank you Sarah for such a wonderful experience!! You rock!!“

“The staff was very friendly and the food was excellent.“

“I would like to respectfully start with; I’ve been to Uchi multiple times over the years and will never forget my first experience (which will always be the best in my mind.) That being said — tonight might have been the closest to first I’ve ever had. Chance, our server was attentive, knowledgeable, easy going, brought some of the best plates when we asked “bring us what you like/anything you think we missed” literally 12/10 would recommend. Ask for Chance, he knows his shiiiiiiii* and made our night absolutely amazing and something we will never forget!“

“The brisket was ridiculously tender, seasoned just right, and you don’t even need sauce (but the sauce is still good). Portions are generous, the sides actually hit(that mac and cheese??). Not cheap, but 100% worth it.“

“Just completed a tour of the Central Texas Barbecue Scene. Visited Snow's BBQ-Lexington, Louie Mueller-Taylor, Kreus Market, Smitty's and Black's-Lockhart, The Salt Lick- Driftwood and Franklin's in Austin. It was great seeing the venues and the family history at these historic sites. I visited Franklin's in the past and felt it was the best brisket I had ever eaten in my life. I am a skeptic when it comes to famous barbecue joints. I must say that Franklin's BBQ was far superior to all of the restaurants I visited with no one even a close second. Aaron's attention to detail from the service, choice of briskets, the cook, the wrap, the holding and even the slicing of the final product is evident in every aspect of his trade. I was lucky enough to run into him at the restaurant and he happily talked BBQ with me. Franklin's may not have the long history of muti-generational BBQ in Central Texas, but he has figured it all out at a level that I have yet to see equaled by the best venues in the country. This is a bucket list restaurant for those who really enjoy BBQ. It is well worth the wait in line“

“This place is so good. You will need a reservation if you want to eat inside so make sure you plan ahead. The wait staff is very attentive and quick to refill coffee and drinks. One tip, these pancakes are big as yo face. Order one and see how you do. If you order two you will probably be taking left overs home. They are fluffy, huge, and good.

Well done badger crew.“

“Everything was good, but best brisket ever…“

“My wife and I couldn’t be happier with our meal and the service at Dai Due. Everything we had was beyond delicious and we had a kind and attentive server who was able to answer our questions and her recommendations were on point. I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!“

“Excellent bbq! Would eat there again“

“Great place! If you don’t order the cannoli, you are missing out!“

“Amazing!!! Great atmosphere, amazing food, and down to earth owner!!!“

“Fantastic little place in a great location, we loved staying here close to Franklins, Paperboy, Radio Coffee and Nicke City. Wish we could have tried Siti but unfortunately they were closed on Monday. Peaches was so responsive to requests and very kind. I hope to be back soon!“

“Great spot, friendly people. Get some of everything. Nothing disappoints.“

“From the moment I spotted the aquarium I knew we were in for an exquisite expedition⛵️🛥️🚢🛳️⛴️⚓️ 🥂“

“Stop in for a Pastrami breakfast sandwich, it’s 🔥 amazing!“

“Great Food and awesome ambiance.“

“Love it here! Fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere.“

“Oh Texas, Oh Texas. It’s been a solid start to sxsw many more shows to go 🤠“

“The beef cheek was 🔥 So much flavor in every bite! The tacos have the perfect amount of moisture. You never know if a place will be as good as the ratings say, but this place is definitely a 5.0“

“We visited Moonshine Bar & Grill this weekend, and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. From the moment the food arrived, it was clear we were in for something special—chef’s kiss doesn’t even begin to cover it! Every dish was perfectly prepared, full of flavor, and clearly made with care and excellence. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the service was attentive, and the overall experience was simply top-tier. This is the kind of place that reminds you why great food and great hospitality matter. 10 out of 10— We will absolutely be recommending Moonshine Bar & Grill and can’t wait to return! 🍽️✨“

“Nice chill spot to kick it“

“It was one great cup of coffee. But, boy, was it so much more!

Andrea didn’t just take my order, she guided me every step of the way, with such care and personal attention that I felt like I was at a 5-star restaurant. But here I was, at a food truck, waiting in line, cold from the chilly morning, and getting some of the best customer service I’ve ever experienced. There was no rush. There was just you and your order, and when Andrea made suggestions and recommendations, I was smart enough to take every one.

When I picked up my drink, the gentleman at the counter said, “We appreciate you.” Well, all I can say to Andrea and everyone at Desnudo is, we appreciate YOU ❤️“

“Vic and Al’s is something truly special. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re welcomed by an energy that feels alive…warm, inviting, and full of heart. The décor, the music, the atmosphere, every detail has been so thoughtfully created, and you can feel the love behind it all. The food is absolutely fantastic…every bite bursting with flavor and creativity. The bar menu is a mixologist’s dream. The staff was incredible — genuine, attentive, and passionate about making sure everyone feels at home. You can tell the owner has poured so much heart and soul into this place, and it shines through in every moment. Vic and Al’s isn’t just a restaurant…it’s a place where memories are made. I can’t recommend it enough! One of the highlights when I go visit my son!!“

“Weekend getaway in Austin, went here for lunch.

Ambience - located in an alley, can be a little confusing to find. Walk into an alley bar, go through a door, walk through a small seating area, around the corner to the kitchen where you wait in line to order and get your food. Can be fun if you like hustle and bustle. Energetic atmosphere, everybody working fast getting customers their food. No table service, you order, you wait for your food, you try to find a place to sit.

Food - very tasty, we order 3 different ones just to try out the variety between the two of us, along with a side of chips and salsa. The salsa is outstanding…probably the best flavor I’ve had in a long time. Our tacos were steak, chicken, and pork, all on homemade tortillas. Very fresh tasting and tasty, but the meat was chopped fine, tough to hold together while you eat without it falling out the ends.

Enjoyed the lively atmosphere and great quick lunch.

Would I go there again…yes

Would I recommend…yes.“

“This is a small, cosy restaurant with a fusion of Mediterranean and Indian flavours using local, seasonal ingredients from Texas. The restaurant offers a four-course prix fixe menu with sophisticated and creative food (Time Out Worldwide) (The Texas Tasty).“

“5/5 we tried the carnitas, queso, bistek, and nopales. all well seasoned and delicious. we will be back for sure. probably in a few days 5/30 we've been back several times and have had their torta, barbacoa, elotes and now plancha hamburger ....everything is wonderful . almost had everything on their menu“

“Food was excellent & the atmosphere was very warm & cozy.“

“This place is another delishhh spot�“

“Very Delicious and Great Location“

“Long overdue review after visiting regularly for years. Great beer and food, great people (nice to see the same friendly faces for years), great vibes.

Also, my kiddo is sitting with me and wants me to give a shout-out for the Beer Mates and (free) arcade games 😂“

“Amazing is the only way to describe it.“

“Fun times I was there for the 2024 Cheftochef conference!“

“Totally new world of tacos! Amazing flavors, unusual combinations, super fresh ingredients and perfectly prepare. Well deserved James Beard award!“

“Best coffee spot in town. Love stopping by for all my coffee and puppy treat needs!“

“Amazing food! Every dish we tried was DE-LICIUOS! Wait staff and hosts are lovely people. Atmosphere and vibe is warm and inviting here. My only suggestion for this restaurant is that they turn the volume down on the music. It really is WAY TOO loud. Other than that, visit often so that you can try the entire menu!“

“Very nice mediterranean options, would recommend.“

“I found them out through the app (Too Good To Go). My first time going. It was a wonderful experience it was 8pm they still had fresh baklava even had free sample. The treat its self was divine and flavorful. Not too sticky not or messy. The works had amazing manners and communication. Definitely will be going back!“

“This restaurant is such a gem. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Tried griilled cabbage salad with added gilled chicken. It was the perfect salad with sophisticated ingredients but the simple lemon and olive oil sauce, loved it. We also tried shirmp and grits which was a huge dish but so tasty nothing left behind. We also tried chili glazed chicken which was both healthy and a delicious dish. Finally we tried the baked alaska it is served with alcohol burning ceremony on the merengue. Inside icer cream and cake was delicious, merengue was too sweet for me but worth for the ceremony.“

“The service was fast and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious! The best breakfast my wife and I have ever had!“

“Otopia Rooftop Lounge is hands down one of the most impressive and stylish venues I have visited in Austin. The views from the rooftop are absolutely breathtaking and create an atmosphere that feels both glamorous and relaxed at the same time. The cocktail menu is creative and well crafted, with every drink arriving beautifully presented and tasting just as good as it looks. The staff was attentive and charming throughout the entire evening, making sure our experience was nothing short of perfect from start to finish. Whether you are celebrating a special occasion or simply want to enjoy a memorable night out, Otopia Rooftop Lounge delivers on every level.“

“A great place! The gelato and pastries are very good and the atmosphere is nice. Pet friendly!“

“Took a trip to Austin and was told to go to Torchy's Tacos if I had a chance. It's such a good easy stop if you're hungry and out and about. They have a bunch of options from tacos with every topping known to man, or just a basic taco. The Democrat Taco was the favorite of the table and I had to fight to keep my own taco!

While you're here, you must get some chips and guac, their chips are perfectly salted!! Not sure if we were starving, but this place was so good...and for a good price!
