Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar - American restaurant in Downey - 8800 Apollo Way, USA

Great service, the staff really seems to care even during a non busy rainy mid week visit outside. Food: The chicken parm was a bit lacluster; think fried chicken patty cooked a bit too long and little tough. Pasta was overcooked also and chewy. Started to get busy by the time we finished our meal and the staff was starting to call in reinforcements and shift changes to handle the group work holiday gatherings. Price: $40 for 2 people and lunch special meals

Lazy Dog is a chain of comfort food eateries with cool bars. We had never been to one. While on our way to Downey to see a play, my grandson noticed it and said he wanted dinner there. I am always up for something new and said okay, let's try it. It was fabulous. Parking is easy in their large lot and it is free. They are open for brunch, lunch and dinner. I don't know how late they are open, but they seem to have a busy bar crowd. The place is so cute on the outside. You can't miss it. Once in we were greeted straight away and headed to a table. We had a super comfortable booth in the bar area. There is a TV there, but I don't think the sound was on. The bar area is really nice with big bar chairs and I saw a lot of the fancy drinks going by. They also have beer on tap. The menu is big and they have a lot to offer. It all looked great. We were hungry so we did order a lot of food. We started with great salads, they have a lot to pick from. I loved my Caesar salad and my grandson Buddy loved his greens just piled everywhere. Moving on to dinner I had a small order of fish and chips. It was fantastic. It was not greasy. the fries were wonderful and it was the perfect amount of food. My grandson has Linguini and shrimp and was in heaven. It was all prepared to perfection. We also had great desserts. I had a warm chocolate cake with ice cream and whipped cream. YUM. My grandson wanted a white cake with strawberries and whipped cream. He loved it. We should have shared one. They are big. The service was super friendly and fast and our server checked on us a few times. When we first came in they asked if this was our first time at Lazy Dog. it was, and they gave us home made chips. They were so so good. They also have TV Dinner type trays to take home and at a good price and reasonable selection. We did mot get any, although I would have bought 10, if we were not so far from home. They are frozen and we had no place to keep them frozen, but they sure looked great. We will be back and we will try others. It was just a 10 out of 10.

Ok, so this place is AMAZING! The food is delicious, the service was excellent and the atmosphere is wonderful....im thinking I haven't eaten here before today is because I thought it was a Hot Dog place...no its not that at all, this place is much more, they have a great menu. I had the Bison Burger, which was delicious. I shared some bbq flavored wings. The burger was tender (not dense) with a delightful jam and caramelized onions. Next time I visit, im going to try the PB&J burger. You might have to wait for seating (my visit was on Saturday). I'm not sure if they take reservations, but plan ahead. I came for lunch around 2 pm and got seated right away, but as I was leaving, there were a lot of people waiting. Enjoy.

Food was delicious! Service was great! The Flat Iron Steak was my favorite. I brought my son for his birthday he really enjoyed this place. I will definitely be coming back.

Eaten here twice now on business trips over the last couple months and really enjoy the fresh cuisine. I HIGHLY recommend the ahi tuna. The service is also stellar!

Came in for lunch, plenty of space not annoyingly busy, and served by friendly attentive servers. Ordered the Baja Cali burger 🍔 and fish n ships plates. The burger was delicious along with it's glorious crispy fries 🍟 The fish n ships tasted fresh and fulfilling. Overall great experience.

Great place for Happy Hour. We ordered the Wok fried calamari and Cajun fries from the happy hour menu. Both were delish. Hubby and I also split the ribs, which they served on separate plates. Also enjoyed that. For dessert, we had the butter cake and banana pudding. Both were good, but the butter cake was a little dry. It was better the last time I had it.

Great place great variety of food great atmosphere. Our waitress ( marisa ) needs work on her P.R with the customers..
