As most pet owners are aware, the words "dog-friendly" and "restaurant" simply don't go together in NYC. Because of city health code standards which preclude canine access to indoor space containing food service areas, the realm of "dog friendly" restaurants in NYC is essentially limited to those restaurants with attached outdoor patio or sidewalk seating. Needless to say, this seriously limits the dining options available to dog owners seeking to grab a bite while out and about with their pooch. Even more scarce are the "fine dining" options available to dog owners - you simply don't find a wide range of NY Times two-, three-, or four-star restaurants opening their arms to customers of the four-legged variety. That said, there are a few treasures to be found amongst the concrete canyons of NY - you've simply got to know where to look.
In this section, we'll review restaurants around the city that open their arms to both you and your pet, focusing not on the diners and pubs that will tolerate you tying your dog to the leg of a patio table, but the true culinary gems around the city that offer a great dining experience not only for you, but for your furry dining companions as well.
