Black Dog Cafe

Love this place. Birthday dinner was a success!! Cuban and House Pizza! Highly recommended. #supportyourlocal

One of my favorite spots in all of Saint Paul. Sara knows how to run a restaurant, and does so with unique food and drink options and a cozy and friendly atmosphere. All of the staff are wonderful and take great care of you. Highly recommend pancakes at breakfast and a slice of chocolate cake after dinners. Yum! Live music is a bonus. :-)

Every Saturday night there is an amazingly well curated rotating Jazz 2-header show that is different and AMAZING every time. Great small menu foods and great drinks/service

Came for lunch as we were already in Lowertown. Breakfast is served until 2 but I got the Black and Blue Burger with fries from the lunch menu. The fries were good but weren't hot enough and the burger was delicious but $14 was a lot for it. Lots of tables, booths, and a counter with espresso options and alcoholic drinks. Would love to come back on a night when there is music. Metered parking in front.

This was my second time at black dog. Lovely ambiance, they have live music if you come later in the evening. Menu looks approachable and delicious but the execution could use some work. Ordered the huevos rancheros which were tasty and spicy. Add avocado for 2 dollars extra cause its a nice contrast from crunchy to soft. Eggs were perfectly cooked and runny. Someone else at our table had the roast beef hash which was less appealing. Roast beef was pretty dry, dish came out like warm, and could use some more salt and pepper to really flavor the dish. Service could use some work. Waited a few minutes before we were brought menus by our server, then a few minutes more for water, then a while for coffee and bloody Mary's. Server came around once we had our food to check up on us but not to refill drinks. Fine experience overall and will be back to check out the rest of the menu!
