About Barking Dog Garden Patio

Our Story

What makes our food truly special is that we grow all of our vegetables and fresh herbs right here on-site in our garden patio—growing alongside our guests and harvested the same day for dinner service. It’s a level of freshness you won’t find anywhere else locally.

Barking Dog Garden Patio is reservation-only, with limited seating and ingredients purchased per booking from early spring to late fall, ensuring a fresh, intimate experience.

We’re more than a meal—we celebrate fresh ingredients, timeless cooking, and community.

Prefer to enjoy at home? We also offer delicious to-go dinners made with the same garden-fresh ingredients!
