    The donuts were room temperature, are they supposed to be warm? The waiter hit my friend on the head with a water pitcher. The room is too cramped too many tables!!

    My parents came from overseas and we wanted to have a special meal. We had a great time at Whitedog cafe not only because of the wonderful food but also because our server Mike was very attentive, very professional and also helped us out and took many photos of us so that this event would be a lasting memorable day that we would remember for years to come. Because the restaurant has a very distinct vibe with lots of great photos spots, Mike was very gracious and took photos of our large group in different locations, which we are very grateful about. The food was great too! We were very surprised by the super fancy and tasty deviled eggs and also with the various appetizers that we had. My dad who has a picky appetite was very happy with the Thai noodle and steak, main dish, and the rest of us were also happy with our selection.

    This was our first time dining at the White Dog Cafe in Wayne, and we enjoyed our experience. Kudos especially to our server, Rose, who was so lovely and helpful. Because of my ignorance, I ordered something that I did not intend to order, and she was so accommodating. She removed the item from our bill, in spite of it having been MY mistake, and she quickly brought me my new order, which was delicious. My husband enjoyed his entree, and we look forward to our next time at White Dog Cafe.
