50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Foothill Ranch

“A cozy atmosphere, delicious food, and rich coffee. This local eatery has grill items like breakfast burritos that are made to order, and they feature a selection of muffins, coffee cakes, and bagels. I recommend trying out a Pooh latte which is a honey and cinnamon latte, using real honey made from a local monastery. A perfect blend of sweet and spice, tastes really good iced and with almond milk.Service is exceptionally friendly with the staff instantly making sure they make up for a miserable (my burrito on one visit was taken by another visitor, but they instantly got me a new one made right away), and they remember your name and make you feel at home, which to me is very special and something you don't exactly find at a Starbucks these days. So if you're on the eastern side of Lake Forest, I strongly recommend checking them out.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and Vegan burritos and other entries available.Dietary restrictions: Dairy alternatives like Almond milk available, vegan menu options available.Parking: Parking is part of a larger strip mall next to a Ralph's grocery store. Be mindful if you intend to enjoy dining in that the store front parking spots are capped at 30 minutes or less, and some of the parking spots to the northside of the venue is intended for the nearby recreation trail.Kid-friendliness: Children are welcomed and you can keep them entertained with complimentary board games that they have available.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessibility parking with ramps available. Loose chair seating with plenty of space between tables. Double doors, manual opening.“

“Cannot recommend enough!! The food is THE ABSOLUTE BEST MEDITERRANEAN FOOD I have ever tasted. The chicken kabob is juicy and perfectly cooked and the falafel appetizer is perfectly breaded and melts in your mouth. The owner is so incredibly kind and you can tell he truly cares about the quality of the food and his customers. The restaurant has amazing ambiance, it's beautiful and inviting.“

“Tried it out based on Yiftee.com's (often has buy one get one gift cards) Lake Forest list. Great first impression: easy parking (in Foothill Ranch's giant plaza), warm greeting, friendly strolling violinist live music Friday night. Menu is fun, especially desserts! I ordered the Avo Chicken, one of their signature dishes and it was flavored well. The falafel was fried well and crispy. However, service is on the slower side and there weren't many of us in the small place. They forgot the ice cream on the soufflé and it took a while to correct. Overall I would recommend! I'm curious to try more desserts“

“The best place for lunch. Never ever without the most amazing flavors and an ever changing beer menu. Service is always friendly and quick. The atmosphere here is relaxed and fun. I always recommend this place! Ps if you like cauliflower get the roasted veggies on the side!“

“If I had to pick one word to describe my dining experience here at Outback Steakhouse, it would be “Exquisite!” The service was quick and my server Emma was very knowledgeable about the menu and even assisted me with my dietary restrictions. 10/10 I will be coming back! Jared is coolDietary restrictions: Gluten free and seafood allergy“

“I love this place. Every fish option i've tried here is always excellent. And friends with much more depth of wine experience than me, have mentioned that the wine list is top-notch as well. Stacey and the rest of the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend!“

“First time ordering from this restaurant, we had hot roast beef and chicken soup. The sandwich was good the beef has really good flavor and tender but the bread became soggy. The soup was a little salty for me and seems too little serving for $7.00 ( I guess nowadays everything are so expensive). It was ready on time when we picked it up. I would definitely come back & maybe eat in the restaurant next time.“

“Want to give a shout out to Jayc for being so helpful and patient with me. Went close to closing time and she did not try rush me and was super helpful in giving me suggestions on what to get. It was my first time and not only was I satisfied with the customer service but the peanut butter bowl was really impressive. It had a great consistency and taste. Overall impressed and would def make the drive out to the area for it again.“

“We always enjoy their Shrimo Botana! Huge shrimps and good portion of avicado and veggies. More than enough to share with another. Today, our server Guillermo was very friendly and helpful with choosing our dessert, ice cream with churros. Mmmm...yum!“

“Very quick service. Sandy was super helpful since I’ve never been here to this location and only had their food one other time. The salmon was a bit bland but cooked well (I must have got a different one last time I came) the mashed potatoes and asparagus were delicious“

“Food here was excellent and the staff were very genuine and friendly. We had breakfast (eggs Benedict, avocado toast, espresso drinks, and a ham and cheese croissant) and each item was considerably better than we were expecting. It was all very good. After, we had the cinnamon roll and a fruit tart, again it was way better than expected - a perfect balance of sweet but not too sweet and delicious. It’s clear that they put a level of care into their food that’s well above average.I definitely recommend checking this place out, and we will certainly be repeat customers.Kid-friendliness: My 6 year old said it’s his new favorite restaurant“

“I adore all Mexican food. This place is the best I've had! Also, I have celiac disease and cannot eat gluten. Everything except burritos and pastries are gluten free!! Woohoo!!??Dietary restrictions: Tons of delicious gluten free options!“

“This is place is great! The food is phenomenal! The chicken is cooked to perfection! We had both rotisserie and spicy chicken with the lemon garlic potatoes and corn on the cob. Even our 16 month old liked the food! It's easily the best place to eat in the food court, no question!“

“The shrimp on fire was a very interesting show. Baby was intrigued. The gyro and trio player tastes great and our baby liked the rice in the gyro plate. And Kevin made sure we have a comfortable lunch! Ambiance is good. Like the blue theme color and choice of music.“

“Fantastic birria tacos. My favorite are actually the shrimp and the fish, and my kid loves the mushroom tacos. The guacamole is fantastic, the chips are fresh, and make sure to ask for the spicy oil--they don't seem to give you any when you eat there, but give it by default with to go orders. It's unique, with dusky but flavorful notes that pack a wallop.“

“OMG, best Ice Cream (gelato) I've ever had!! it was definitely worth the wait in the long line. My family is visiting on vacation and this was an absolute hidden local gym to find! Too many amazing flavors to choose from! this is a place you keep coming back to so that you can try the whole menu!“

“Good food and thank you to Asian gentleman with the glasses he is a hard worker. I see him running around cleaning and getting things done and the cook with the blonde hair too thanks for the food! He was nice as well. I appreciate a tidy chill restaurant!“

“When you have times you are suppose to open then you should open on time and have stuff ready for your customers right when you open. Nothing was ready …..the guy turned the lights on and opened later then the time posted so we were having to wait and of course nothing was ready to open even when the doors did open. It’s kind of frustrating when a place is suppose to be open at a certain time“

“This is a great local ice cream spot! They had many (at least 20) different ice cream flavors. After being informed their most popular flavors are something with Oreo, I ordered the Coffee Oreo and Birthday Cake ice creams (I ordered both in a small cup). No wonder Oreo is the most popular as both flavors were full of large Oreo chunks. The ice cream was flavorful and had a great coffee and cake flavor. Note they do not offer samples, but from what I saw, I’m not sure you could go wrong!“

“I love this place, the food is delicious and exclusive, the chef does a great job. The atmosphere is perfect, you enjoy your stay in the restaurant. The welcome is always very friendly and the service is respectful, friendly and helpful. Super recommended, don't hesitate to enjoy a good dish and an incredible atmosphere, it's worth it.“

“Ate at the Jamboree location in Tustin and cashier Ali was courteous, kind, knowledgeable and very helpful in helping us understand the menu options. Even offered a couple samples to make sure we ordered something we’d enjoy. Great customer service!“

“Some of the best food I’ve ever eaten, no exaggeration. I consider myself a chicken shawarma connoisseur. I’ve tried many of the middle eastern restaurants around LA and even down into San Diego. Food trucks to brick and mortar spots. This is my favorite shawarma hands down!! I’m also a big fan of pickled turnips but a little picky about them. Theirs are PERFECT.“

“I'm not an Indian expert, but I can say for certain that nothing I've had here was disappointing at allThe butter chicken is especially good on Rice scooped up with a big piece of NaanKid-friendliness: They are so incredibly friendly with our boys every time we eat there - truly a welcoming atmosphere“

“Great place for a breakfast or a quick lunch. I tried the Pollo con Pesto lunch sandwich and it was absolutely awesome! The sandwich was prepared with fresh and quality products. I also tried the Super Lemonade and it was great too. The owners are super friendly! Highly Reccomended!“

“I'm so happy we have a place like this in Rancho Santa Margarita. The service was awesome since it was delivered to our table by a cat robot. the coconut puddings are delicious and the smoothie was so good I finished it very quickly. The interior is very relaxing and photogenic. Prices are very reasonable and I can't wait to go back and try some daily specials they have as well!“

“Went here to meet a date only to find that Anthony Z. had already stolen my dates heart. Anthony made really good recommendations for what to order and was very friendly and personable. He complimented my dates facial hair and face and even gave us complimentary baclava. The food and ambiance was great. Don't think I'll be getting another date though because he left me for Anthony.“

“Incredible ragu! Meatballs; soft, cooked perfect…Only not nice thing was the toilets… the place of it, I could see some dirty areas close to the kitchen… the cabinet was dripping water..They were too busy I can understand that.Still really good and I recommend!“

“misha was the absolute best worker ever give her props from the second i came into the store the way she greeted me and welcomed me as if it was second home and i was a regular even tho it was my first time. i was a little confused on what to get but she made it so easy she asked me my preferences and then proceeded to recommend me some options and i ended up giving her the liberty of picking out what to get and she gave me mango sago and it was GREAT it was so refreshing you guys need to try it. once again thank you to misha for the stupendous customer service!“

“The good: I came and got one of their two seasonal drink options. I'm a sucker for all things seasonal. I got the ginger molasses latte and loved how it wasn't overly sweet. It was subtle in flavor and was deliciously pleasant on yesterday's brisk afternoon. It was a great pick-me-up and the cafe's walking distance to the beach! Workers were friendly. There's indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor space has upholstered bench-style seats that were comfy. The interior has a hipster vibe with a colorful wall mural. The prices were fair. The flavor wasn't overly roasted. They sold fun looking pastries too. The latte art was perfect. The temperature of the drink was comfortable. The stamped logo on the cup was aesthetically pleasing. The menu was straight forward. Succulent Coffee Roasters doesn't succ. The bad: I think there's only metered parking. The indoor space small. The interesting: They sell merch like T-shirts, hats, and tote bags.“

“My family and I have been coming to peppinoes and then here for over 20 hours and I can't tell you enough how amazing the food is and how amazing the owners are! I get the pasta fajole soup and it always makes me better when I'm sick and or when I'm in any type of pain. It's my miracle soup. Now that I am keto they make it for me without the pasta so I can still enjoy my favorite stuff. My daughter loves the Alfredo pizza and everything is homemade and so fresh! I love love this place and you won't be disappointed. What are you waiting for go put in an order, I know I am! ? ?????“

“One of my favorite shops! The avocado ? toast is excellent ?, but omelet tasted a little plain. Service is great in general but sometimes can be a touch too curt. It's a great vibe here and conducive to getting work done, especially love the days when they play 90s R&B.“

“Susie, the owner, is truly amazing!!! Their services are very good and their food portions are very filling. They also have halal chicken and beef which is amazing about their store and they taste really good, along with their desserts. Their smoothies are also a must try. Especially the strawberry smoothie where they use real fruits too. Must try!!“

“I can't wait to come back! So yummy! I liked this better than Blue Bowls for some reason. All the bases were really delicious and not too sweet. All the toppings were good and the girls that were working were all friendly and quick. Nice chill place to be on a free afternoon!“

“Convenient parking may be available in front of restaurant. There are only a handful of tables with seating for about 36 people. Always full so reservations are recommended.The service is friendly and efficient. They’re very keen to ensure you enjoy your stay and your meal. The hospitality is top notch and we enjoyed our lunch. Our first time here and we are bookmarking this place to come back.The food is delicious, generous portions and meats are wonderfully well seasoned and tender.The decor is pleasant and comfortable. The restaurant is clean and well maintained. Great dining experience!“

“We really enjoyed the service by Taylor. We picked a wine flight to sample that was too fruity and not in our desired palette, Taylor noticed and brought us something drier and more of our liking. We found some wines we really liked and ordered some glasses of wine after our wine flight. Would recommend for service and atmosphere. A fun date spot for before or after dinner. This is my second visit here.“

“This turned out to be a great find. Everyone loved their food. It is clearly made with care and the recipes are delicious. Good portions at reasonable prices.They have a good size patio area as well as plenty of indoor space. We loved the fun repurposed seating like church pews and theater seats.Special shout out to a seriously spicy bloody Mary.My wife only at half her breakfast burrito as it was quite large. She loved the roasted green salsa.Myself and others enjoyed their take on shrimp and grits. Such a great combination of flavors.Not that many people there for Sunday brunch time which was surprising as so many people wait in line for brunch at other places not nearly as good.Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs, just curb at sidewalk“

“Got the 3 pack for $13 - tried the potato, chicken, and beef. Honestly, more than I expected. Great flavor throughout, from the topping to the meat inside and held up well when taking it to go. Would definitely suggest if you want something quick and unique for Spectrum.“

“such a cute lil place! so many options that all looked sooooo yummy it was hard to pick! even tho it's small there's plenty of room to stop and eat! the woman behind the counter was very friendly and patient, but super fast! apple pay & card friendly as well :) great experience !“

“Meh. General Manager is Persian and we were wondering if he is related to the famous singer & violinist, Bijan Mortezavi. This particular location was pretty busy. Some of the dishes we ordered were the brussel sprouts, bacon candy, edamame, buffalo wings, buffalo cauliflower, cajun fries and ahi tuna crispy rice.“

“Such a fun atmosphere and excellent food! Our server Gabriel was friendly and helpful. He recommended the chile relleno and the Branzino and both were uniquely delicious. We also ordered the octopus ceviche for an appetizer and it was tender with incredible flavor. We also shared their homemade soft serve ice cream which was the best I’ve had. We shared this between 4 people and it was plenty of food. We are full, happy, and can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend if you want a great meal in a beautiful place!“

“Yummy! I ordered their Margarita pizza, light on the cheese, extra basil. I phoned ahead, and it was just out of the oven when I arrived. The pizza was just as I ordered it, and it was delicious. My hairdresser is just across the street, so I will make this my monthly pizza fix.“

“I have been a customer for a while a now. The customer service is amazing. Cupcakes with a warm and friendly smile. The cupcakes are very well designed and of course, they are Delicious! I have had them at the store and when they have been delivered they have always arrived on time and look fresh and are just as delicious! I cannot say enough about Simply Cakes: They are my favorite ??If I just have a sweet tooth and want a treat, or for special occasions and celebrations we LoVe ❤️ Simply Cakes“

“Cute little restaurant next to the Cottage. Great breakfast. Apple pancake tasty bacon crisp not greasy. Eggs cooked to specifications even poached. Casual pay before and choose to seat inside or out. Great View and not a long wait like the Cottage. Hot pots reasonable healthy alternative, if you enjoy your meals hot throughout. I enjoyed this breakfast more than the cottage greasy offerings. Food served pretty quick, Beef hot pot also had clams and mussels which made for a tasty broth and classic shirataki mushrooms.“

“I would argue that this is one of the best coffee shops in California.I stopped in for a bite to eat and then I left with a loaf of bread. Let me tell you, this place just became my next addiction.The jam and butter biscuit was from heaven itself. They serve OLIPOP which is my FAVORITE drink to find at a coffee shop when I don’t want any more caffeine.I can’t wait to stop in again for more treats!For more reviews follow me here on google or on instagram @audrey.pulliam“

“Take @Ash Cuessy review with a grain of salt. I was ordering at Roman's Mexican restaurant (which is next door to Chaupin's Bakery) when this interaction happened. What I saw were two customers cussing and shouting each other out while the service workers were just shocked at the interaction. One customer was telling Ash Cuessy's Father not to be rude to service staff who were simply doing there job. It's astounding to me that people think they can treat workers however they want.What's also shocking is the race bating that occurred in @Ash Cuessy dishonest review. I am a regular at Chaupin and one the workers who was there at time this happened is also Hispanic.“

“I only come here for the flan. It is delicious!! Just like how my mom makes it at home. I live nearby, so I come as often as I can, and I always double check to make sure they have it. The man at the counter is SO sweet. Whether he remembers me or not, he makes me feel like family, which I don't feel a lot in this area. I would NEVER expect anyone to do this, but he even gave me a flan for free one time. He absolutely didn't have to do that, but it meant so much to me. I always come when I need a little flan to make me feel like I'm at home“

“Very comfortable, casual, fun place! Had the pretzel- it was delicious. Our bartender, Maddie, was super nice, informative, and attentive, even coming around a few times to clear empties. I don't drink currently, but their NA Bravus was a great option. Recommend for chill vibes!“

“Met a friend for happy hour at the bar. The female bartender was very friendly and acknowledged my presence immediately. Since the restaurant wasn't busy, my drink was made quickly. The happy hour menu has a nice selection of food choices to choose from and I ordered the cheese pizza which was excellent. Just the right amount of sauce and cheese on top of a delicious thin crust. As for the ambiance, it's a fairly typical bar with at least 8 seats at the bar and enough tables to seat multiple parties. If you're looking for good food, a cold drink and a local place to meet a friend, give Antonucci's a try.“

“What a lovely late lunch experience. Visiting family and arrived late looking for a bite to eat after a long drive. This was perfect, I love the concept of the box, and I ordered the recommended pulled pork (on gluten free bun) with 3 sides (spiced green beans, roasted carrots, seasonal salad). I thought everything was delicious. All the dishes had a home made quality to it which I adored. Vegetables tasted fresh (although carrots and beans were a bit over charred IMO, but the flavor was still yummy). The dressings and sauces complimented their respective dishes. I loved the gluten free bun as it was served warm, and the dough was light and fluffy. If I'm back in the area again I'll definitely be back.“

“We went here for dinner. It’s a laid back beach town atmosphere; a little loud but that’s to be expected in a beach town. It was peak rush hour and service was a little slow which we knew would happen. The food was very good. We had coconut shrimp, wagyu burger, mushroom and truffle pizza. All items were delicious. Reservation highly recommended, especially on weekends.“
