Understaffed, rude to us…

We have stoped here in the past several times and they have a back patio for doggie guests, but we waited over 10 minutes, asking to be seated, but all staff were too busy. Eventually, I asked if they were just too busy for us, and the server said, “Yes. We can’t handle any more people for a while.” So, we left and found another wonderful bright and open restaurant a few doors West, with picnic tables out front, and we ate at Nosh Eatery instead!

Yummy food; friendly atmosphere; doggy venue!

Since we always check out BringFido when traveling with our dog, we found a nearby restaurant but they were understaffed and could not accommodate us, so we found Nosh Eatery! It was a surprisingly gorgeous, warm winter day and it seemed lots of folks were out strolling in this waterfront, restaurant and shopping area. Gorgeous day!

Wow, we were so glad we found this place! Their staff were sweet to our dog and to us, and my husband is disabled and he was totally happy with our visit, too. The outside picnic tables were empty as we arrived, so we found the table best for us and the staff member soon came to give us menus, refresh the dog bowl, and greet our excited pup! He’s a fluffy guy, and loves people and most other pups, so he was happy too. We had the BEST fish tacos and fish & chips ever!! I need to go back for more fish tacos! They were so delicious!! There were lots of folks strolling by to say hi to our dog, and he got startled once and was upset, but soon calmed down. We were so glad the other restaurant wasn’t available because now we will definitely come back to Nosh Eatery!!

Cozy, dog-friendly, heated patio with yummy food!

We met friends here and we all, with our pup, loved lunch: friendly staff and fellow diners, yummy "hooman" food, and, for EV-owners, 1 block from a fast charging station! Easy access to freeways and medical offices in the area...I had the Greek Wrap and my spouse – who is not a health food fan – had the Super Food Waffle and loved it! A variety of teas and other beverages suited us well!

Aldi (and pawrent) approved

We had a yummy lunch of the lightest, tastiest battered fish/seafood, with really outstanding coleslaw, too, but the best was our waiter, who clearly loved pups, and especially our pup! Just a little guy, Aldi loves people and after our waiter brought him puppy biscuits, our pup was convinced he was the best! Loved the outdoor covered patio, so we ate in comfort despite it being a foggy wet day. Highly recommend their light ale-battered halibut!

Happy people & happy pups!

We made this our first visit based on BringFido, and couldn’t be happier. The outside deck was immediately obvious and one didn’t need to go inside right away
