    Great for happy hour and dinner. I had two appetizers which was plenty of food. The tuna tartare app is delicious. My friend had the pasta dish which was superb. Lovely service; enjoyed sitting in the bar area where noise level is low. It is always consistently good!

    Such a lovely brunch at White Dog Cafe. Jonathon, our server, was attentive, charismatic, and kind and added to the experience. The food was amazing. Would definitely both come back and recommend!
