50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Laveen Village

“Wow, food was yummy. Had onion rings, Mac and cheese nibblers, bacon burger and pulled pork burger. Yes all that, and ot was all delicious. But those mac n cheese bites were good. Wasnt sure how much better the Amadio Ranch could get but they sure out did themselves. Thanks again.Kid-friendliness: They have petting area and a playground“

“I've had the pleasure of dining here on multiple occasions, and each visit is just as delightful as the last. The standout feature for me has always been the exceptional customer service. Brenda, in particular, exudes a warm and inviting personality that makes every dining experience memorable. The food, especially the Pollo con Tajadas, is nothing short of delicious. The generous portions are notable – often more than enough for one person, ensuring you leave satisfied. My frequent visits have allowed me to interact with Victoria, Brenda, and the rest of the team, all of whom consistently display a level of friendliness and professionalism that truly sets this place apart. It's a pleasure to recommend such a welcoming and delicious dining experience to others.“

“Yummyyyy, I love coming here for a taste of home. I’m originally from the east coast and grew up in a Puerto Rican community where all the goods taste just like they do here, it’s so hard to come by PR restaurants and so lucky to have found Phoenix Coqui !!“

“Initially, we visited this place on a whim and I am so glad we did because I found myself yearning to come back! The owner is so kind and helpful - genuinely wanting to make people happy through the best desserts. Highly recommend stopping by! The strawberries and cream are to die for.“

“What a difference a few years can make!! Music was no longer a main feature!! Food was visibly fresh and well managed, staff was quick, accurate and ready with paper menus. Sashimi platter features were well cut, fresh. Calamari app is crisped just right, not overcooked or under cooked. Sushi rolls I had N Lights and Señor Larry, rice was perfect!! Not overly soft or under done.Great time!! Would actually take friends or family!!!Non alcoholic mix drinks are available on request.“

“I hardly ever leave reviews but I truly felt like this place deserved it. This is the best Mexican food I’ve had in Phoenix. Not only that, but the staff were so incredibly nice. My husband and I ordered an online pickup when I went inside to pick it up and it wasn’t ready they offered me a seat and water. I didn’t wait even 10 minutes over the suggested time for pickup. Everyone I came into contact with was friendly and the food was fresh, hot, and delicious. We got a chicken torta, asada sope, shrimp cocktail, guacamole and chips. Our total was around $63 with a tip. We thought it was a good price for the quality and quantity of food. We will definitely be back!“

“love the location, funny enough I live down the street!! haha what a wonderful spot to go have a few drinks and spend time with friends!! blueberry spaceship box for the win always, but the pillars of creation is where it's at. Stop by for happy hour for good vibes and great prices!!“

“I got the burger and it was absolutely delicious. It was cooked very well and it was nice and juicy. We immediately got seat and asked what we wanted to drink. The owner was very friendly and made great conversations to try and connect with us. I will be coming back again! Great 50s diner with great atmosphere and food.“

“Okay, this might be questionable but this was probably the best coffee cake I've had. I don't even think they make it there but where ever it came from it's delicious and paired perfectly with my vanilla latte. Service was great, and the outdoor swing and climbing vines are so cute and quaint. There's something whimsical about this shop, makes me want to come back for more!“

“Valentine has been on my list for a long time so when we finally made it to Melrose for dinner we pulled no punches on our ordering. If we didn't get everything on the menu we were close. The restaurant itself is cute and delightfully photogenic which helps set the tone for a great meal. On the cocktail front, most were good. The only standout to me was the hatch chili margarita served in a glass boot which was as tasty as it was eye catching. Similarly, most of the food was above average with nothing being bad. The Elote pasta is the standout - it was outstanding. Basically this is a carbonara style pasta with Elote flavors instead of the traditional bacon. The execution on this dish is perfect. Prices are quite high for what you get on most dishes and cocktails and if there was more value, I'd likely have a better rating. That said, I'd return and I definitely would like to come back for pastries from the coffee bar if driving by in the AM.“

“We tried four different flavors. I liked all but the fat Elvis. Just wasn’t for me. The dough melt was epic. Had one with vanilla and one with the bourbon caramel toffee. I would definitely come again to try more flavors. Drove past the place twice. Hard to see from the road and not much parking. We parked down the street. Maybe we’ll try another location next time we’re in town.“

“The food & service were UNREAL. I got the Al Pastor Torta, & three tacos- all of which were great. The service was fantastic from the second we walked through the door. Such friendly people. I will absolutely be back. Phenomenal place!“

“Absolutely the best ice cream place that you'll find in Phoenix. Not only is the ice cream delicious, but the people that work there are enthusiastic about what they do. It really makes the full experience positive and unforgettable. Check it out, you won't forget it!“

“Used to be a great place to hang out and meet amazing people from all walks of life. The manager is stand off ish and the culture has become so clique ish. Not open or accepting. There are so many former customers such as myself that have left and will not come back because of it. Also, they ironically preach about creating a "sober" environment but actively sell substances some of which are quite addictive (kratom). Steer clear and find other kava bars that are more welcoming and less judgy.“

“My husband a I were visiting AZ for a wedding and searched for local vegan food. So happy to find Early Bird! The buffalo Mac n cheese is phenomenal and the BBQ Birdie sandwich was fantastic! So delicious! We got to meet the owner Crystal, who is lovely and I feel like we made a new vegan friend. Hepet at the front is awesome!Crystal and her staff are wonderful and my only complaint is they’re not in Austin - yet ?“

“Not a lot to say. We stopped in for a beer while trafilfic was easing up. The place was nothing special. The beer, Spellbinder, was pretty good. The thing that put it over the top for a 5-star were the great people we met. My wifenand I sat next to a newly engaged couple and a couple 35 years married. We had a great conversation about beer, secrets to a great marriage, dogs, and children - quite eclectic!Anyways, we had a wonderful time making new acquaintances. We wish we would have got contact info ro stay in touch, but it was not to be.The brewery seemed like a local hangout as it was packed at 2pm on a Friday. We would love to come back and continue the conversation.Recommend!“

“GET Phoenix hosted an event with Greenwood Brewing in late March. Our attendees were blown away with the courtyard area that was reserved for our private event! Paloma was a huge help with coordinating and a pleasure to work with, highly recommend!“

“This has become our go to place for lunch for me and my work besties! The tacos are so flavorful and they use homemade tortillas. You can see them making the tortillas in the window when you are ordering. Try the Flamingo! It's my favorite but the fish tacos are out of this world too. They have frijoles a la charra (whole beans) and salads too. Be sure to try their agua Frescas Every one of them are refreshing. They do have a happy hour 3-6 daily and ALL DAY on Tuesdays!“

“We hosted my baby sprinkle at The Teapot and couldn't have been happier with our choice! This spot is sooo cute and perfect for events! We reached out to the venue, and they were very communicative. They were so helpful the day of, and very reasonably priced! Definitely will consider this venue for my future events!“

“If you are looking for an authentic hamburger, that tastes, fantastic… This place is spot on! I saw their advertising they were open, went inside, the place was clean. The staff is super friendly, and it took my order and delivered it precisely how I requested. Five out of five stars, two thumbs up - a total 10 on the food scale“

“Came here today in the morning with my lady and we both got the mazapan latte coffee with two Cinnamon coffee Muffin the coffee for me was a little sweet but my lady loved it and the muffins for sure were a 10/10 and the place is really nice would recommend come try if you near by ?“

“Decent coffee house, the homemade system in the lattes are almost too sweet, and there isn't good searing for bigger groups like teams trying to get together offsite. Other then that it was good place to work from, chill music selection, minimum volume, could easily hold phone conversations iside and out.“

“Stopped in while on layover for a flight. Was not disappointed. Well worth the trip there. Very knowledgeable staff - made excellent suggestions. Drip coffee was dialed in exactly as described - which is super important to me! Food was super tasty. Ube waffles are KILLER. Get em.Thanks for the great coffee and foods!“

“My fiancé and I have a slight obsession with trying to find the best coffee wherever we are living/visiting. And currently we have been living in the valley for four years. At this point in time, Moxie is our champion. Not only do they make very impressive specialty drinks but even their classic coffee, espresso and latte drinks are always amazing. One thing that we think really sets Moxie apart is their consistency. Their drinks never disappoint. Unlike many other shops where you might get a really good drink one day and then the next day it is much lower quality. On top of all that, their staff is incredibly kind, and cool. They help set the really chill but modern vibe in the shop that makes it a great place to chat with a friend or get work done. And one of my favorite things about Moxie is that if you have your coffee in shop, they will always serve your drink in one of their beautiful mugs or glasses. Most coffee shops tend to serve their drinks in disposable cups whether you're staying or going and I think it really ruins the experience. Moxie seems to really pay attention to the finer details:) Oh and one more thing! Their pastries are insane and they warm them up the perfect amount before they serve them to you! Moxie is 10/10 and over the years they've really gained my loyalty and my recommendation to anyone visiting or living in the valley:)“

“One of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had. The tater tots inside were so crispy. Bacon was great. Eggs were fluffy. Placing an online order was super easy, it was ready for pick up asap on a Sunday morning. Parking can be a little difficult, but then again I was just visiting so I don't know the area.“

“Fantastic venue! It used to be a house, so it's very cozy, with lots of nooks for people to mingle in. It's the right comfortable, relaxed atmosphere to reconnect with old friends and make deep bonds with new ones.The cocktails and mocktails are phenomenal! Everyone's talking about the Queen Bee, but there's a cinnamon berry one with a shockingly complex flavour that I loved.We hosted a private mixer at Garden Bar and Kim & her team were terrific. Great to work with, rock solid, made the event a total delight. My guests kept coming up saying how lovely the place was and how delicious the drinks were. One guest was hesitant to try a different drink because of how enamoured he was with the first.A true hidden gem, and a fantastic host for our event. Highly recommend.“

“Don’t let the 50’s motel vibe scare you off. This place is delicious. Get anything they recommend, especially the moles. Don’t forget about the cocktails.Vegetarian options: Server was able to highlight vegetarian dishes.Wheelchair accessibility: Should not be a problem, both bathroom and restaurant are ADA compliant.“

“Walter Studios has hit it out of the park with me! Our school hosted a concert there and the staff was amazing ?They have wonderful food with generous portions and a vibe that just won't stop! Every corner you turn, there is something cool to look at. The staff is talented with lighting and sound with a professional but fun nature!I can't say enough about the Walter Crew and what they do. It's amazing ? ? ❤️Parking: There is some parking but given how many people were at the venue, most had to park away from the venue in the neighborhood.Kid-friendliness: We hosted a kid related music event here, they were so super accommodating to our kids. They had a special menu just for them. The portions were generous for the kids!Wheelchair accessibility: There were several people using wheelchairs at our show and they helped them to the front of the stage!“

“I tried this Vietnamese restaurant recommended by a friend, turns out it's our new favorite Vietnamese place! We used to go to other places that changed hands and the quality/flavor had changed. So I'm glad we checked this place! The choices we picked were delicious and well served in good sized portions. I was not able to eat my whole dish, I'm glad to have left overs for work ?. I can't wait to go back and try something else next time. I recommend this place if you are in this area and the mood for a good Phò!“

“Certainly worth a wait. An event next door so parking was tight but well directed promptly by their parking lot attendant managing the lot in excellent fashion.Great ambience with individually managed little table lamps. Quick service with chips. And of course the salsa bar is a favorite with such a variety of flavors and tastes.We both loved our meals and look forward to going back.Highly recommend! A+“

“Inaugural visit Saturday. After stopping at a brewery that was celebrating it's anniversary THIS was just the brewery I was looking for! Quiet, kids not running around, not nutty busy....just a quiet brewery w friendly beetender Tony! We almost didn't make it in as there isn't a lot of parking and all the spots were taken,... lucky for us a jeep left just as we were giving our second drive around. I was so excited to see ALL standard height tables!! Even the bar was regular barstools, not high top.There was even a couch lounge area and another couch nearby. So far this has clinched me!! The north was is mostly windows, glass doors or garage doors so lots of light and lets you see what's going on out on McDowell! Tony was kind and very helpful in building my flight and helping my mom pick a pint. The brew house is right there too! Comfortable chairs around the different tables. I like the tap list, it's not a standard list, it's 8.5x11 colored print outs. Tony was also very helpful in describing which order to drink my beers in and why. Upon tabbing out Tony slid me a sticker....much to my delight!! I collect these!! Thanks Tony and Roses By The Stairs for meeting my brewery needs on a Saturday afternoon.....cheers!“

“I’ve been vegan for almost 12 years. Slowly there have been restaurants that are plant based, but I’ve never found good vegan Mexican food, until now. A colleague and I ordered here and we’re absolutely amazed at how delicious and fresh it was!!! She’s carnivore and loved it. I’ve found a new favorite spot for sure!“

“This is my favorite spot for craft beer straight from the tap. They also have a little convenience store on the other side of the bar that has other beers and wines that are not available on tap. Excellent customer service and atmosphere. Highly recommended to all beer and wine drinkers.“

“STELLAR. You're gonna have a hard time finding a place that has better chips or better tacos. Salsas too! Amazing service and ambiance. Very clean! Very nice patio with a projector screen playing sports and stuff. Check this place out!“

“had someone cut in front of me and a buddy right before the cash register on a night so busy they refused to serve people sitting at the bar, as soon as I told the person there was a line they told me I was locked out. tiki lounge or Grand ave brewing was far better“

“You know how some places have the Pig pan dulces, baked on the day you get there, and they're stiff, overly chewy and need a Sawzall or dunk them in coffee? Not here!I bought a Surprise Bag via the Too Good To Go food rescue app on a Thursday, and tucked into them the next morning. I tell you, the Piggies were so soft & tender, just the right amount of sweetness without having you jittery.. the pan dulce just melted in my mouth without needing the coffee - although it would go great with some!“

“I met good people at this place. Several times. Like several times I have been there and good people have been there. The bean bags and foosball in the court are just bonuses. The strong beer in the dark teal/green can. All the others are light. Some of the bartenders are friendly. Others, just doing their job. No hate though, if you had to take questions from a sweaty mustached man in full kit you might be tight lipped too. This place is the midtown Sunday drinking event station. Take advantage. No pictures. I think I made a friend so you know. When we're in church please no photos.“

“Seems like a secret hideout, every time I come its quiet. I hope they’re doing well though because everything is amazing. I’ve only ever had the pretzels and they are always so good. The beer is top notch. It seems all the other menu items are made with passion, maybe one day I’ll try something else. My one complaint is the hours. They are closed Monday-Wednesday and they close pretty early.“

“Best bagels in town! The jalapeño cheddar with bacon and cream cheese breakfast bagel is my favorite.The coffee has not been so great unfortunately. Since the new year it has been either too sweet or watered down most of the time, been coming for almost 2 years and lately it’s been a disappointment.“

“Fantastic new find for us. we had the shrimp etoufee which was amazing. So authentic and flavorful.. The chicken wings "dankenstein style" were dry rubbed and had am amazing blend of spices. I def believe there was some creole seasoning combined with a tiny bit if faunt sweetness. Seasoned perfectly... honestly my favorite wings ever. not 1 bit greasy, glistening inside. Just crazy. My wife had the chicken Salad which sounds boring, but not this chicken salad. Great service. Friendly owner who was mentored by our fave Cali soul food chef. Just crazy good. We will be back... prob on Wing Wed again lol. A must try. 10 out of 10.“

“This is hands-down the best Ethiopian food in Phoenix! Flavors are so complex and developed. We're vegetarian, so we usually go for the veggie combos and lentil sambusas. The ambience is friendly and warm, and there's an extra eating area with Mesob basket tables for a more communal and intimate setting. My husband and I enjoy this spot for date night, and my daughter loves eating with her hands. For an extra treat, try the coffee ceremony. We're not Ethiopian, but we just love this spot. Once you taste the food, you won't be sorry.Vegetarian options: Veggie ComboSambussas“

“Came here for a conference and was in need of something that would help me stay caffeinated during the day. I tried many latte's during my stay in Phoenix and I must say, this is the best one! I'm so happy I found this place. In terms of food, there wasn't many options. However, I got the Peanut butter power balls. Very healthy and peanut buttery - no complaints. I will definitely come here again before my flight back home!“

“This tiny (five tables) place in a nondescript location is a real hidden gem! The three of us had pizza, lasagna, and spaghetti bolognese. All were absolutely delicious, and the portions were generous enough for tomorrow's lunch! But the piece de resistance was dessert. Our server mentioned one that isn't on the menu, semifreddo. Vanilla semi frozen base mixed with a broken brittle of dark chocolate, almonds, and caramel, drizzled with caramel and dark chocolate. IT WAS FABULOUS! We will be going back! We had such a hard time deciding, there were so many good choices on the menu.“

“What a great meal. The service was very welcoming with Karely taking care of me and my party. We got to meet the owner Jose! Very nice. I couldn’t eat all of my meal but I went home and finished it in front of the t.v. Thanks El Chullo and welcome to MELROSE!“

“Okay this is our favorite spot in Phoenix and one of our all-time favorites ANYWHERE! The whole concept is super creative and the dogs are amazing. Visiting Phoenix for a month and have already been back to Short Leash multiple times. These are not "hot dogs" in the traditional sense (do NOT think Oscar Mayer), but are culinary masterpieces that you get to help build. Brunch is (almost) as mind-blowing and the doughnuts...the doughnuts...oh my Lord, the doughnuts. Never have tasted anything so good. Each time back we've said "best doughnut ever" and then it gets beat the next time around. Indoors has a cool vibe (love the old school posters and all the dog photos) and the outdoor patio is off-street and wonderful in the spring weather. Don't miss Short Leash Hotdogs if you get the chance.“

“Chris, who took my call, was excellent and gave me the low-down. Once we arrived for our 35th anniversary, they treated us like gold. The meatball appetizer was awesome, outside waiting area complete with bar and appetizers was a great way to pass the time.The wait is worth it and our server, Rachel, couldn’t have been any more awesome than she was. Great meal, great service and wonderful atmosphere! Please do not pass this Geno when in Phoenix. In fact, our hotel bartender, Meghan, from the Doubletree in Paradise Valley recommended Cibo’s if we would be willing to drive 20-25 minutes. Well worth it!!“

“Must visit spot - be prepared to spend a bunch because everything is so yummy and smells/looks amazing. Tough choices ? but all worth every penny. Also I’m so annoyed for them that their neighbors tow but they have easy parking right across the street. Everyone was so nice and the vibe was perfect. Must eat place when you’re visiting Phoenix. Very cool outdoor area too“

“Solid bite!!Appreciate the quality and taste. Tacos were delicious. Perfect amount of carne asada; cheese crusted tortillas are on point; and the pickled onions just make for amazing balance of taste.These guys are doing great things and keeping it simple. ????“

“One of the best coffee spots I have found in all of Phoenix. Great strong coffee, I ordered an expresso and an iced mocha. The iced mocha was one of the best I've had in a while. Not watery and is super strong which I like. Employees our super friendly and it's a great study spot in my opinion. Definitely check it out!“
