Any place with the word ‘dog’ in the title should be welcoming of furry friends. Luckily, Lazy Dog takes it a step further by serving canines out on the patio. While grilled meats and brown rice are sure to satisfy any pup, the offerings on the human menu (pasta, sandwiches and more) are decidedly more diverse.
