50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Kenmore

“The beer tenders are great and I love the trivia on Tuesdays. beer it's good. But, I miss some of the Cairn classics. Wish they would bring them back. Seaplane in particular. Parking is awful. they used to open up the patio area for parking during the winter. postdoc has not done this despite the fact that nobody wants a beer outside when it's raining or snowing. great place though to hang out. kid and dog friendly. Their membership program is pretty awesome too!!!!“

“Been frequenting this little gem since working a cpl days a week in Kenmore and just love it. The staff is friendly, very experienced and fast. I waited out 6 other cars this morning and was served in less than 5 mins and got a "thank you for waiting". Speed+accuracy+professional and personable attitudes make for the perfect "go to" coffee place :) I'll never understand why people sit for 20 mins in a Starbucks line when there's places like this, around.“

“Headed down during a blue grass jam session, place was packed. It was freezing cold outside so I had a Hot Toddy and it was absolutely perfect. Great vibe, great people. Lots of families. I did not eat anything, but next time I will check out their food. I heard they have a farm to table restaurant moving in which would be awesome! If I had my choice, I would have Carolina Smoke BBQ come in and make it the blues capital of the eastside, but let's see what they come up with. HIGHLY recommended.“

“Went last week & had a great time playing pool, darts, skeeball and pop a shot. Can’t wait to go back to try some food.“

“Super friendly service! Great atmosphere!“

“Great place for quick drink or happy hour. Personally love their small batch old fashioned options.“

“Oyster poor boy was the best sandwich ever“

“I can’t believe I’ve lived so close to this place and haven’t tried it until now because wow have I been missing out! The food is to die for. I ordered the savory (chicken and waffles) and devoured it before I could even take a picture. Everything was cooked to perfection, and was a great balance of sweet to spicy and so flavorful. What made it even more special is the owner who made the experience very personal throughout our service. Important to note it is a small place so you may end up having to wait for a table but, trust me, it’d be worth the wait.“

“A real Southern meat 'n' three, right here in Seattle! I'm so glad I stopped in. It's down-home cooking made with love and plenty of flavor. The menu isn't huge and I've tried most of the items, so here are my thoughts:
• House Smoked Meatloaf: Absolute must-try. My favorite item on the menu. Tender, moist, and seasoned all the way through, improved only by the delicious chipotle tomato jam.
• Hot Honey Cornbread Fritters: Definitely don't skip this one, either. Eat em' fresh for the most luxurious combination of crispy, tender, sweet, savory, spicy, and overall heavenly.
• Red Potato Salad: Delicious and surprisingly light! Not your everyday potato salad—I'd definitely recommend trying some.
• House Pickle Chips: Crunchy and fresh, like good pickles should be. An excellent addition to balance out the heavy mains.
• Banana Pudding Ice Box Cake: A unique take on a Southern classic, but don't expect a traditional banana pudding!
• Rotating Seasonal Dessert: When I visited, it was a peach cobbler cheesecake and it was absolutely divine. If you're not feeling the banana pudding, I doubt you can go wrong with whatever other dessert they have available.
• Sweet Tea: Another rare find in Seattle, the sweet tea is actually brewed sweet and it's delicious. Plus the owners let me top it off before I left!
• Braised Pork Shoulder: Very flavorful and moist, but could use a little less salt and a little more acid.
• Braised Rosemary White Beans: Good, but probably my least favorite item on the menu. They could be a bit more thoughtful—they taste like canned beans with some chopped rosemary stirred in.
• Miso Honey Butter Green Beans: The sauce is excellent. They'd be even better with fresh (not canned) green beans.
• Charred Maple Glazed Carrots: Love the balance of sweet and spicy!
• Marinated Slaw: A little bit elevated but still comforting, with some poppy seeds and a little bit of horseradish or something similar to cut through the mayo.

There are only about 8 seats inside, but it's near the lake so it's great to take out for a little picnic. The prices are also super reasonable.

The owners were extremely warm and kind during my visit—even the little one! It's clear that Zax is run with care and passion.“

“Their ham and cheese empañada is the best I have ever tasted! Their pastries are delicious!“

“Best baked goods in town and an amazing staff!“

“Best coffee I have had in Seattle hands down.“

“A flavorful delight that is so unexpected in an otherwise sinful breakfast treat. Our experience brought us joy as the owner proudly shared his unique twists in his culinary craft. It is worth a visit.“

“A friend recommended this place. Went to try it cause I love banh mis. This family is warm & inviting. Better than YeYes or Seattle Deli hands down.“

“I’ve been coming here since 2019 and have genuinely never had a bad experience. It’s easily one of my favorite spots in Seattle and definitely a go-to in Belltown! The food, drinks, service, music, and overall vibe are always consistently good. Their nachos are one of my favorites, and my husband and I will often stop in just to grab some drinks and share an order. After all these years, it’s still one of those places I know I can count on for good food, good drinks, and a great atmosphere!“

“sushi AND ramen? Yessirrr!!

Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of the ramen and sushi options here.

I've tried other places that specialize in making ramen. Sadly none of them really impressed me and would usually opt out for pho instead. But here, they got ramen RIGHT.

Hear me out, the black sesame squid ink ramen?? FIRE. The soup got that addictive nutty taste to it - this is my favorite ramen.

For seafood bowls, raw seafood and rice ratio is fair. Nice thick cuts of fish. Reasonable to the price.“

“Food and service was excellent!“

“Cool bathroom. Nice location. Friendly staff. I didn’t have a drink but was told they were pretty good. Portions are large. Vegan selections are limited.“

“I happened to stumble upon this place exploring Seattle. I had my first Seattle dog, and a few of their IPAs. The food and drinks were great. All of the staff were incredibly pleasant and kind, with a shoutout to Clea. I will absolutely be stopping here again when I make it back out to Seattle.“

“Delicious lunch and sold us some pastrami to take home! Friendly and fun place to catch a bite.“

“Came here on a hot 82 degree day and they had a shaded lounge with air conditioning, running water to wash hands, and reasonably priced food. I didn’t even think I was that hungry but once I had a bite I could not stop it was that good! I am 100% coming back here, what a pleasant experience. You can really tell the owner loves what he does and the ingredients were fresh and flavorful, even uses saffron for the rice! This is one gem of a food truck in Seattle.“

“Wow! Perfect dining experience. Friendly staff, amazing food and drinks, fun atmosphere, I highly recommend this place! 🙏“

“First time at Aroom Coffee and I tried the Gloomy Matcha — black sesame matcha. It was sooo good! The flavor was really good and well balanced. I honestly loved it.

The place was pretty busy when I went, but the service was still really organized and everything moved pretty quickly. I was impressed with how well they handled the crowd.

Definitely coming back to try more drinks!“

“Excellent service and great food!!!“

“Awesome sandwiches and atmosphere.“

“Enjoyed the queso barria tacos with consome. The meat was so favorable. I wish the tortilla was a bit more crispy but I really enjoyed the meal! I would gladly come back. The free salsa bar was nice too..different flavors of salsa available and I enjoyed experimenting with different salsa pairings with each bite“

“Went for NBA game 7, great place to view. It’s pricey but the food was delicious, beer cold and servers all nice.“

“Friendly service/ very good food .“

“This is a great neighborhood spot! The pizza is really, really good, and there's space to spread out and hang with people. The beer is a little spendy ($11/glass, give or take), so I skip that and get something from a nearby brewery if I really want it. But def go for the pizza and the chill vibes!!“

“As a firstimer there, i was guided thru the menu, I was told the top 4 dishes. I chose the veggie plate. it was amazing, fresh, light, and filling, i had to take half of it home. also, i had a brownie for dessert! YUM (let them warm it up for ya) **Chefs kiss**“

“Wide variety of doughnuts. Various different unique flavors. Also have allergy sensitive and gluten free choices. With various drink choices as well. Super friendly, very clean, great value, very tasty and lgbt friendly. Would definitely return.😊🍩“

“Great atmosphere and amazing staff. Bartender Justin is extremely accommodating and friendly. Liberty is an amazing new home bar. Will be frequenting regularly.“

“Cheesy biscuit just melts in your mouth when they're fresh from the oven. Now I wonder how best to reheat the biscuit once home to reproduce that experience???“

“Food is phenomenal!! Service was top notch as well!! That breakfast sandwich was slap your mama good!“

“Fabulous customer service from Suzanne ! I mixed up an order and she was able to fix it and was very understanding.“

“Loved the place and the fact I can come back later in the day than most places. Latte was good, not great, but I was happy you were even open because I hate Starbucks. Wasn't happy you ran out of oat milk and I wasn't willing to take the last drop from the bottle and risk getting sick. I will come back again and write a better review 😉“

“A fun place to go for beer and golf.“

“Amazing staff and Tommy Patrick is a wonderful host.“

“Friendly service and creative blend of traditional Korean and fusion dishes.“

“Bomb tacos and I love the burrito bowl. El Pastor is my fav.“

“this place is so 🤌🤌🔥🔥🔥 should have a line out the door. hugeeee portions and wow. so good! bravo🫵🫵“

“Delicious food and wonderful service. I got the k-bbq beef bulgolgi burger and it was fantastic! The lady working there was so friendly, attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend the food. Also it's very clean inside and kept up well. The music was pleasant and not distracting from our conversation.“

“This place was a lot more hip and laid back than I was expecting based on their website. All of the dishes were creative and well prepared. The staff is friendly and down to earth. The patio vibes are divine, and we were even paid a visit by the owner’s cat who was an actual angel on earth. We would absolutely
be regulars here if we lived locally.“

“I’m in absolute slurp heaven after eating Slurp Station Aburasoba!! Wow the flavors are incredible, full of umami goodness, and the noodles are springy and fresh. My husband and I shared the Tokyo Ganso Aburasoba and the Shoyu based beef Aburasoba - they are unlike any Japanese noodles we’ve had!

The Tokyo Ganso is a symphony of delicious ingredients all dancing to the same tasty beat. The Parmesan, the poached egg (which was perfect btw), the liquid base and vinegar make this lovely sauce that pairs beautifully with the diced pork chashu. The dish feels jumbo sized, the thicker noodles were so so good, and there’s plenty of chashu pieces. We loved it, it’s insanely unique, a must try!

The Shoyu based beef Aburasoba was also a knock out, slightly more delicate flavors but all working in harmony. The beef slices were super tender, they melted in my chopsticks. The soft boiled egg was still slightly runny yumm. The noodles were thinner than the Tokyo Aburasoba but just as fresh with a nice chew. I also highly recommend it, especially if you want a more classic style flavor.

We ordered to go and the service was wonderful. A very nice server and chef prepared our food quickly and with care, they have nicely branded chopsticks and even put cardboard at the bottom so our to go bowls stayed stable. The restaurant is clean and inviting, with nice background music. Plus they have free parking right in front!

Support local and check out this gem in the university district. Prices are very fair for this quality and authentic Japanese food. My husband and I were sooo happy, we’re foodies and have never had flavors like these!“

“New favorite ice cream place! Amelie was so helpful. It was nice to be able to support such an awesome locally owned family business. Their hours vary so I would recommend stopping by if you’re in the area even if google says it’s closed.“

“lIncredible craft cocktails and delicious food (don't forget to try the cake!) But the attention to detail in the beautiful wood design of the bar and fixtures, the decor, and the down-to-earth staff make this my favorite spot in the city!“

“Amazing food, great service.“

We started our meal with a trio of appetizers that were all absolutely delicious. The FLORA BAKEHOUSE GOUGERES were cheesy and satisfying, the BURRATA & STONE FRUIT was a refreshing combination of flavors, and the MEDITERRANEAN SPREADS were a flavorful medley of ingredients. For our main course, we couldn't resist the SUBSTANTIAL menu items. The KIMCHI BLACK BEAN ALMOND BURGER was a flavorful and hearty option, but our favorite was the FRIED TRUMPET MUSHROOM & POTATO WAFFLE. This unique and satisfying dish was topped with walla walla onion rings, lime crema, herb butter, and hot agave. To complement our meal, we enjoyed a variety of refreshing drinks. The ROSEMARY LEMONADE, BLUEBERRY LAVENDER FIZZ, CHERRY FIVE SPICE FIZZ, and BLACKBERRY TANGERINE NOG were all delicious and perfectly balanced. We couldn't resist indulging in dessert, and the ETON MESS and COLLINS FAMILY ORCHARDS PEACH SHORTCAKE were both absolutely heavenly. The service at Cafe Flora is impeccable. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, ensuring that every guest has a memorable dining experience. Overall, Cafe Flora is a fantastic restaurant that offers a delicious and unforgettable dining experience.
