    I really liked this place. Like a lot. Came in during happy hour which is daily (at least on weekdays) from 2pm to 5pm which usually sucks but was great for me since I had the day off. There's a happy hour menu which includes 6 dollar sliders and other appetizers as well as 2 dollars off drafts and cocktails. Nothing that will blow your mind but still a deal. When I came in, there were about 8 people here. I ordered cheese curds with truffle to line my stomach and bacon wrapped dates. There's a bunch of vegan or vegetarian options so there's something for everyone. The dates were spectacular. Shame only two came in it. The cheese curds were okay. I like a lot of truffle on mine and so more could have been added in my opinion. For beers they have a lot of local and regional beers. Plus they have a handful of cans with THC in it. I had the creamsicle one and it was fantastic! I then followed it up with war pigs which was okay. Stefano was my bartender and he was cool and engaging. The place has a ton of dog photos and picture on the wall. There's a back bar as well and they host a trivia night one day a week. I feel like you can fit easily 100+ people here. Not sure about parking but there are places to park your scooters or bikes outside the place!

    Happy Hour Prooster Slider $6.00
    Erika S.

    Every single thing I ate here was delicious. As a vegetarian, having an almost identical plant-based menu is incredible. Highly recommend the Prooster slider, it was my favorite bite. The cheese curds are delish (not plant-based, FYI). I wish I lived nearby so I could try more on the menu. The staff was super friendly too and there is a very fun and divey feel about the space.

    Had really kind & great service here! Staff is very friendly and it's a cool vibe on the inside decorated for Halloween. Food is nothing crazy but a good option with a lot of vegetarian choices

    We had a team dinner here while in town for a work conference and had a great time. Love all the dog decor of course, but the big hit was their robust vegetarian/vegan menu. I got the beyond rooster burger and I'm already craving another one. We had a big table (17 I think) and service was fantastic. Great selection of beer as well

    American Burger & Green Marvel Burger
    Markeda D.

    I liked the green marvel burger because it wasn't dry and because of the caramelized onions. It was flavorful, a bit messy, but overall a hit. I didn't really like the spicy margarita but I loved the decor though out with all the doggy details. We utilized street parking on our visit Saturday afternoon and the service was fast and friendly.

    The is probably my favorite bar in the cities. Great Belgian tap selection, an entire vegetarian menu, and incredibly friendly staff. So glad they seem to be doing better after the pandemic scare. They rotate specials with the season and they're always delicious. Most of their menu items have a well thought out way to make them vegetarian and not just "remove the meat". It's a long building so there's more seating than it first appears but can still fill up really quick on weekends and during sporting events. It's my NE/St. Anthony staple if I don't know where to go or just want a nice Belgian cask beer.

    This place had a very fun ambiance and decor! It's all dog-related, hence the name. We came right at open (12pm) on Saturday, thus service was quick and friendly. The seating: the tables are mostly high tops. There are only 7 low-top tables and a small outdoor patio. The Rooster was flavorful and had a very tasty sauce. The pickles that came on it were very thinly sliced...more cucumber than pickle. The Bourbon burger was the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The fries had the perfect amount of crisp! We do wish the meal was a bit cheaper ($17) for the portion size. For the average person, you likely won't need a box for take home. It was a good portion size! * street parking only * 1 stall bathrooms

    Inferno pizza - really good with the jalapeños
    Kevin E.

    Don't sleep on this Northeast Minneapolis establishment, which used to be where Bulldog NE was located on the corner of Hennepin and 4th. Great beer selection and elevated bar food with some terrific burgers, house cut fries and tots that you upgrade with truffle, fennel or togarashi - if you grew up where I did, you have a great appreciate for fennel (think porketta). There's a nice variety on the menu, lots of different sandwiches, which I'd like to try nearly all of them and some unique burgers with great flavor - I've had the bourbon brown butter, which has applewood bacon, brown butter mayo and a bourbon glaze, which makes the meal, and fried shallots, as well as the Stuffed Pretzel which has garlic aioli served on a white cheddar stuffed pretzel bun - it's really good! On a recent visit, I ordered one of their pizzas - the Inferno, which has sausage, pepperoni and jalapenos - for the price, it was really good deal and I liked the crust and sauce as well. Stray Dog also does has a nice happy hour, as well as breakfast/brunch on the weekend with some great options. If you are in the neighborhood, be sure to swing by - you'll love the decor, especially if you're a dog person like I am!

    Negroni
    Ashley B.

    A fun place to stop if you're already in the area. I was having a treat-yo-self day and they were one of the few bars open before 4pm on a Friday. I may be a cat person, but I loved all the dog artwork! Especially the Courage The Cowardly Dog piece! I ordered the Togarashi Cheese Curds and a Negroni. I was excited to see togarashi spice on the menu as it's one of my favorites in Asian cooking! The curds were nom. Soft and yummy. The drink was premixed, which I'm not usually a fan of, and I got the last pour. There were a few other couples sitting around the bar and the staff seemed to know everyone by name. Very friendly environment. Street parking. Also near Stone Arch Bridge, about a 15 min walk.

    Vegetarian Nachos
    Mathea B.

    I really enjoy my time on Stray Dog. The decorations are always so enjoyable - particularly as a big dog lover. Every time I go, I try and pick the dog art that matches my mood for the day. Would recommend this restaurant solely based on the decor. The food was good! We asked for nachos without cheese and unfortunately received it with feta (which still is a cheese). We assumed it was because it was so busy that the kitchen staff was stressed. Similar thoughts on the service. We went during trivia night, so it was quite busy, and we could tell the serving staff was stressed. We didn't get as much interaction as we would have hoped (refilling water, getting more bevs, etc.), but we weren't too upset since we picked a busy night to go! Overall, Stray Dog is a wonderful establishment!

    I don't understand why this place is so highly rated. It must be the atmosphere, which I admit is nice with the cool and colorful artwork and big screen TVs for the games. I'm certain that the high ratings are not for the food. I had a very average burger and fries that were overly cooked or probably reheated in the grease. My service was absolutely terrible in terms of speed to order, receive food and to get the check. But that's what happens when one person is waiting on the entire restaurant by themselves. The server was nice enough, but it didn't help the experience. I have no interest in going back here, but hopefully it was just a one off issue.

    PB and Bacon Burger
    Momi S.

    Ambiance was different with all the dog art. I was different but I liked it. I brought my parents to eat. Waiter was blah. But realized he was the only server there and understood why. We ordered soo much, wontons amazing, caprese salad below average, onion rings tasted like they were fried with fish, Texas chili was delicious, cuckwagon was amazing, peanut butter burger (mid) not enough PB, also the bourbon burger decent.

    Fried Chicken Sandwich and Onion Rings

    An amazing first visit to Stray Dog! We had a great lunch there today. The staff were very friendly and we loved the space and the artwork. The food was very good, and the drinks complemented them well. We will definitely be back!

    Food was average. Hard to park. Hoped for more as a veg but it was uninspiring. I had really looked forward to trying but once was enough.

To drink, I treated myself to a delicious, beautifully layered tiramisu latte. ​Another thing I absolutely love is their grab-and-go bakery case. It is so rare and refreshing to see so many clearly labeled GF treats, like their Lemon Bars and Almond Cheesecake. We couldn't resist taking some goodies to go, so we went home with a lemon bar and one of their GF Fruity Pebbles bars. ​If you're looking for a delicious, incredibly gluten-free friendly brunch spot with a great atmosphere, you have to check this place out!

They also had a delicious iced banana bread latte on their special menu...the banana bread cold fold was so, so good. The second time I stopped in, I was with a coworker and they tried the avocado coffee...which was interested. It was similar to a smoothie consistency, but was definitely not my cup of tea. Overall, great service, quick meal and really delicious food.

Seasoned well, the amalgamation of beef, black beans , radachio, cheese, what I think is basmati rice and bell pepper works It's served with a sour cream and a creamy hot sauce on the side...I was also offered ketchup (OMG Minnesota eww) I turned it down.

They are also open for lunch, and have a liquor license. Yummo.

This time our family tried the 5th Avenue Minneapolis location right across from Twins Stadium. Quick tip, park in the garage facing the restaurant on the left side. It's an easy elevator ride up and the signage makes it simple. Matt was our server and did an outstanding job. Great service always makes a difference. Beverage options were excellent too, stuff for everyone, mimosas, specialty coffee drinks, and really solid drip coffee. The menu has a great balance of savory and sweet, so naturally we tried both. We had the breakfast sandwich with sausage, a BLT on a croissant, biscuits and gravy, pancakes with fruit, and a croissant-waffle fusion with lemon and sweet cream. Honestly, everything was delicious. What I appreciate most is the atmosphere. These restaurants just feel comfortable, welcoming, and easy to enjoy with family or friends. I'm excited they're coming to Maple Grove, but I'll still keep visiting the St. Paul, St. Louis Park, and Minneapolis locations too because I want to see our cities and local businesses thrive.
