Have been here several times! Freda the host is always very welcoming and accommodating to our request for seating. Our waitress Michelle is always patient, cheerful and attentive. I always get the Barking Dog breakfast special. It includes eggs, turkey or pork bacon, a biscuit, homefries and fresh fruit. We also get their mimosas. They are always refreshing! Seating is comfy and the can accommodate groups Indoor and outdoor seating and dogs are welcomed! read more

Me and my girlfriend came here with our dog Mylo after finding this spot on BringFido, and let's just 10/10 for me! This was our first visit, and it definitely won't be our last. I actually ordered the salmon sandwich by mistake (I thought it was just a filet of salmon), but thank God I did because it was SO GOOD. Honestly, the last time I tried a salmon sandwich somewhere else, I hated it. But the way they made it here completely changed my mind it was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. My girlfriend ordered the blueberry pancakes with bacon, and she loved it too. Sweet and savory in the best way. What really stood out was the atmosphere. There were dogs of all sizes around us, which made it so fun and welcoming. We ate outside on a sunny day. I also really appreciated seeing what I believe was the owner going around and talking to customers. It shows they care about more than just serving food they really make an effort to connect with people. Overall, everything from the food to the service to the dog friendly vibe made this such a great experience. Highly recommend this place, especially if you're a dog owner looking for a spot where you can enjoy a great meal and bring your pup. read more

We stopped by Barking Dog for brunch and it was very busy! Since it was a beautiful day, all of the tables outside were full. We initially wanted a table outside but it was soo hot for our baby in the stroller. So then after the host tried her best to arrange a table outdoors with partial shading we ended up getting a table inside by the door/window. It was perfect. As our baby had good air and our dog was also able to join us. Hubby and I both ordered a cheeseburger and a short rib sandwich. I needed to indulge! And they were both so delicious. Both came with fries, however I wanted to sub for veggies but they only sub veggies during dinner (which is a big odd) but ok. The service was excellent. From the hosts and servers who were all friendly and tried to accommodate us, which I truly appreciate. Not easy with a stroller and a little dog! And they gave my Mimi a little treat too! We look forward to returning for an easy going brunch with the fam. read more

Barking Dog - HOMEMADE FRESH MOZZARELLA, switching the potatoes for salad. My favorite - American Near Me - New York, New York

Barking Dog is still a family favorite for breakfast and brunch. Over the years I've brought my daughter and relatives from out of town. It's famous for its connection with Sex and the City. We have been seated at the tables or a cozy booth. When I'm alone I prefer to sit at the bar instead of waiting for a table. If you get take out like I sometimes do be prepared to wait. I'm a fan of the Barking Dog Cob Salad. The deserts and ice cream are yummy too. Barking Dog is definitely a neighborhood historic favorite. You're welcome! read more

Food is uneven, service is great, outdoor dining is okay. I got the country breakfast with sunnyside up eggs and country sausage. Everything was great - and the sausage is a step up from the skinny links that other diners serve. The biscuit was nice, not too dry. My friend's fried chicken dish had great chicken - greaselessly fried and very moist, with crispy veggies. Too bad the gravy and the potatoes were tasteless - totally tasteless. We sat outside in cool weather and yet got tremendous service from the waitress. There aren't many great alternatives in this location - esp. with outdoor dining, so we were grateful. read more

If you're a dog lover and a brunch enthusiast, this is a good spot for you. As you walk in, you're greeted by walls covered in adorable dog picture frames--literally every inch of the restaurant is a celebration of our furry friends. The playful decor creates such a fun and cozy vibe that you can't help but smile. Classic American brunch fare done just right. Nothing over-the-top fancy, but exactly what you want when you're in the mood for a comforting and satisfying meal. I was in the mood for salmon and eggs, but without the carbs, and the kitchen was happy to customize my plate. It's always a nice touch when a restaurant is willing to go the extra mile to accommodate requests! The salmon was perfectly cooked, and the eggs were spot-on--simple, fresh, and delicious. read more

This is a cute and casual neighborhood spot. Good for a quick bite and drink in the summer -- especially since they have a good amount of outdoor seating. Also great for people watching and seeing dogs! However, the food was only Ok. And we felt the drinks were a bit syrupy and sweet. read more

It's gotten a bit pricey from the last time I was here, and the portions seem a big smaller from what I remember, but it's still a decent spot in the neighborhood for a nice breakfast experience. Good service and tasty food. Dropped in here with some running club friends yesterday and we enjoyed our eats. Felt so good to get in from the cold. Plus, they are dog friendly and I had some pups to pet while waiting for my friends to arrive. The BDNY breakfast special is always a good choice. read more

The Barking Dog has been a staple of the UES for decades, and for good reason! It's cozy, crowd-pleasing, and one of very few dog-friendly establishments. The food is yummy and reasonably priced for the area, though limited in terms of vegetarian options. Service is friendly and attentive, but won't rush you. Seating is comfy - none of those hard metal chairs or stools that make you want to get up after half an hour. read more

Four of us had breakfast there this morning. The waffles, bacon and sausage were very good. My brother had the full breakfast and that looked delicious.

How i was thinking my review was going to go when i first arrived to by the time i left took a complete 180. Starting off - - great spot for something quick and casual. *do not come here if you don't like dogs* called barking dog for a reason :-) love popping in here for a casual breakfast or lunch with my pup. She gets a fresh bowl of water upon arrival and everyone is very considerate of the pups in the restaurant. I had the hibiscus margarita which was extremely good and would get again. Also got the portobello mushroom and roasted peppers egg white frittata - also very good. I happened to be here on a day it rained. I sat in one of those inside tables but completely covered with the plastic/all glass looking dome ceiling/walls. Mid way through my meal, the walls just started leaking and water came gushing through. I was soaked. My pup was soaked. My meal and drink were soaked. The waitress came over and said I'll help you move your stuff inside. She grabbed my plate and drink - told me where to sit and put my stuff on the table. I looked at her and I said my eggs are literally swimming in rain? She asked if she should put in another order. I said no it's fine because I was getting full so wasn't going to have the kitchen make another one if I was hardly going to eat it. She says ok and walks away. I called her back over and said my drink is also half rain and she said oh you want another one? Still pouring out so I ordered a Prosecco while waiting it out to walk home. I ask for the bill. They charged me for everything! So the structure of your building can't hold up in the rain, you sit me there, I get soaking wet (to the point where I had to ring out my shirt) then proceed to charge me for everything?! I had to have her go back 2x to the manager which I should never have to do and they should have comp'ed something immediately. Shame management didn't react or be apologetic about the situation immediately. They could have avoided a lot of unhappy customers. read more

Why do business insist on serving limp fries! Don't bother to say Crunchy or fresh.. When Your not. I went against the other reviews.. (Almost a bad idea) I ordered eggs benedict .. The english muffin. ah dah.. you forgot to toast it?? the thin slices of ham were a nice touch. The egg was cooked to perfection. HOWEVER the promised crisp hash browns were a full let down. Never mind that there bathroom is not wheelchair accessible For ANY chair... Yeah I know.. I ordered from them not once but Twice. There menu sounded so good... I also ordered the pot pie to go.. umm they gave it to me inverted.. UCK ah I was deprived of the Crust....Wait there is no top.. THey don't deserve the 4 star But wait.. the reason for the 4 stars.. Do not over look the Grilled Chicken Caesar. OOO my almost the best I ever had... so yummy.. But caution wilted soggy fries come with it. No crunchy crust top on my "Pot Pie"... limp fries Dam close ur doors and find another job.. OO you could possibly fit a Permobil at one of the outside tables?

DON'T EAT HERE‼‼ 2 WEEKS AGO while having dinner with a friend I bit down on my food and bit into something hard and sharp‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼ My friend was looking at me not knowing what was happening. After spitting everything I was chewing on into my napkin we saw the PLASTIC that was in my salad. I have had this lovely server before and I showed her what just happened. I took a screenshot of the plastic along with the salad I WAS eating . I asked the server to please take my name and number and have the owner call me ASAP. I am not a litigious person at all but I wanted to make them aware that I needed to see if all was ok with the teeth that bit into it. Low and behold one tooth had a broken corner from the plastic and doesn't seem like a big deal to repair. ‼HERE'S THE BIG DEAL‼ The OWNER doesn't give a damn and despite my calling him at least 7 times over 2 WEEKS he hasn't shown any decency, concern, interest in making this right‼‼ DON'T GIVE HIM YOUR BUSINESS HE DOESN'T DO THE RIGHT THING ‼ He opened up a beautiful OVERPRICED, SMALL PORTION MEDIOCRE restaurant on 92&3 I have stopped in 3 times the past 2 WEEKS to no avail‼ Aside from the plastic in my salad, I had been to the new restaurant a couple of times where he has been with his unfriendly, snarky demeanor‼ Riddle me this why would you have a restaurant and be out front and present if you don't show any interest in your customers You will never see another penny from me your restaurants, not that pretty, and your food stinks and your prices are too high. What are you thinking? read more

Over-priced meh. For the $$$ money it should have been much, much better. Two blah drinks and two appetizers (not even a meal) = $65, What???? I waited a stupid amount of time to be seated... and the had to beg for water/ I asked two questions and when the check came it was apparent they answered me wrong...( a language barrier, I guess) The main server was conscious but even then, there was lag in service... but not sure why because no one was in side. No one. This crappy experience sucks because it could've been a new hang out. Instead, I'll just remember being ignored, over charge for mediocre fries, and drinks made mostly of mixer. What has happened to restaurant's Manhattan? read more

In 2020 I reviewed this restaurant, giving it 4 stars. I haven't ordered from them or been there in a few years. Tonight I ordered a delivery of my favorite dinner, roast chicken. It was always full of flavor and tender. This time the chicken was not the same cut and had no flavor. The mushroom sauce, provided separately, was skimpy. Even with the dessert, apple crisp with vanilla ice cream, the ice cream used to be excellent -- this was not. The price would have been OK for a treat if the food had been good (the spinach was fine!) Hopefully this was a one-time thing, but for now I'll stick to meeting friends for breakfast or brunch. Their eggs and pancakes, etc. were always tasty. read more

I found this place very charming, Louis was very attentive greeted us and came by every once and awhile between delivering us drinks or food. Within 5 minutes of ordering drinks they arrived then we ordered food about 15 minutes or less went by and it arrived AMAZING. Super quick as we were very hungry. The food was ok nothing stellar. I found the turkey bacon a bit hard to chew more beef jerky consistency than nice chewy bacon style or super crispy. Hash browns were super crispy which was a plus in our book. The coffee we got, hot coffee and an iced latte was outstanding, I would stop by just for some coffee and sit for a while it was that good. I love how the place is decorated with dog art work and decor if you're a huge dog lover this is the place to be.however I must note when using the restroom there was a sign which I included a picture of. I never heard of a toilet not being able to take toilet paper, I asked for further clarification and I think I just confused my server. Super odd . I really did enjoy this place and wish I had a dog to enjoy also enjoy this place (I assume dogs are allowed based on all the decor and there was outdoor seating) but very odd about the bathroom sign. read more

Bit on the expensive side for what I ordered (Hamburger/fries. Delivery was Ok took about ten minutes during dinner rush.

Food was pretty good of the modern diner variety (ciabatta rolls, cappuccino) and the music was pleasant jazz at a low volume. They fell down in two big areas: plastic receptacles for condiments, and no flavor/aroma coffee. read more

I had dinner plans with a friend and she wanted to bring her dog, so we were looking for a dog-friendly restaurant and the Barking Dog was exactly that! We walked in around 7:45 on a Saturday night and there was plenty of seating inside or outside, we chose outside because it was a nice evening. The staff we're all really nice towards my friend's dog, our server gave him a couple treats and they have chicken or bacon options for dogs on the menu. Also, if you bring your dog you get happy hour! They had a lot of options on the menu and I decided on the short rib burger with sweet potato fries. It was really good! The burger was huge and cooked well, and the short rib added some good flavor. The fries were perfectly crispy, just the way I like them! Overall we (me, my friend, and my friends dog) all left happy and very full!! read more

Casual, clean, and nice. I would definitely stop in again if I were walking by, but it's not the kind of place I would plan a visit to.

Amazing drink deals during happy hour (all day if you bring your dog!) and plenty of outdoor seating gives Barking Dog a solid A in my book. All of the servers are so nice to both me and my dog Theodore even though he is a menace who needs constant love and affection and pets. Sometimes they even bring him treats! The omelets are phenomenal and traditional if you're into folded omelets with the filling tucked inside (when did a bunch of stuff scrambled into burnt eggs become an omelet? Idk but that needs to end and luckily they do not do that here!) Get the mimosas, they use fresh OJ in them. Fish and chips are also great and come with a lot of fish, so they're a great deal. Thank you guys for feeding me and the rest of the neighborhood all covid! read more

We were waiting around to meet our realtor to see a near by apartment on the UES and this was the only real option at 4 p.m. on a cold day that had somewhat (and I use that term loosely) decent heating for outdoor seating. The service was good. No complaints there. The food was blah and rather disappointing. I had a burger, which should be a relatively safe thing to order and easy to do right. But it was just okay. The hubby had a salad that was pretty sad on its own and not much to go about. It's not a place we will be going back to. It's an average place with average food and higher than deserving prices. read more

Came here for a Saturday lunch after visiting the Guggenheim museum with my friend. We were immediately seated which was great. A word of advice DO NOT eat here if you do not believe in dogs being seated at the table. We didn't realize their love for dogs until we walked in. There's pictures of dogs everywhere! The actual restaurant gave diner vibes which was actually really cute and I think they have dog food as well but I'm not actually sure. My friend is a dog mom and I'm her dog god mother so it was fine and the majority people who brought their dogs ate outside. The food was good. The omelet was genuinely okay, the side salad was alright as well, nothing too special. My friend really liked her salmon burger. I think the star of the show was the alcoholic milkshake and the brownie sundae. The food is diner style so overall it wasn't amazing but it wasn't bad. I'd come back if I was in the area again. read more

I don't know why Barking Dog has so many bad reviews. It's a great brunch place with extensive outdoor seating and a huge menu full of options. Only thing was how slow the service was, which was frustrating. But the food is solid and affordable, which makes for a winner in the UES. My friend and I shared the smoked salmon omelette and the breakfast banana split appetizer. She also got an iced coffee with almond milk. It was just enough food for both of us. The omelette was delicious and came with a small roll. As I mentioned, the waitress took such a long time to take our order and bring the bill, but besides that, I think the food is reliable and satisfying. read more

We went here tonight for a quick dinner. Food: The food was not great. The only thing I enjoyed was the truffle fries. They were crunchy and well seasoned. The Penne Vodka pasta was bland and very under seasoned but it also smelled a little bit like something was burnt or maybe it was a smokey smell. Either way food was very disappointing. Service: Great and on point. Our server checked in on us consistently and was always available when we needed her. Ambiance: They have cute outdoor seating that also has heaters so on days when it's in the mid to high 60's it's nice to sit outside. read more

It was one of those evening where I was craving breakfast food. I didn't have much time to cook it myself, so I ordered from here through UberEats. The wait time was a standard 30 minutes, and I was chowing down in no time. The food was decent. The sausage and cheese omelette was delicious, and the hashbrowns had a nice crispy texture. The biscuit didn't sit too well with me, but it was a minor part of an otherwise good meal. read more
