Hi I'm Jack! This is me at my favorite restaurant, Besta - Wan Pizza House in Cardiff. Here, dog friendly is an understatement! Always as many dogs as are people on the patio. They have heat lamps, water bowls, and dogs of all sizes dining daily. Incredibly well-behaved creatures ... and the dogs are friendly, too! Great beer, great food, and great prices! If you’re looking for a fun place to dine - check out Besta- Wan and be sure to follow my San Diego dog blog BarkingBeast.com to hear about the dog-friendly restaurants and retails stores in San Diego I rave about!
