Have you ever considered canceling your plans after seeing the look on your dog’s face when you’re about to leave the house? It’s okay, we’ve all been there. Luckily, you’re about to have the opportunity to treat your furry friend to a big night out.
CESAR Restaurant Weekend, presented by CESAR® Canine Cuisine, is returning over two weekends in July following its inaugural event last year in NYC. This year, it’s going to be even bigger – with events expanding in the foodie hotspots of NYC, LA, Chicago and Nashville. So tails will be wagging from coast to coast!
CESAR Restaurant Weekend was born from the CESAR brand’s belief that the best life is a shared life and their commitment to help make the world a more pet-friendly place. The weekend experience gives guests a destination to celebrate summer patio season over a joint dining experience that honors the unique bond they have with their pets.

From Saturday July 12 to Sunday July 13, CESAR Restaurant Weekend will be taking over Yardbird Los Angeles in Beverly Grove. This spot is a go-to for Southern comfort food, which can only be improved by enjoying it with your dog in tow.
In partnership with national pet-friendly restaurants, City Winery and Yardbird, the CESAR brand has curated a dining experience featuring dishes from the restaurants for pet parents that pair with CESAR Canine Cuisine offerings for their pups. Furry companions will receive plenty of goodies and custom swag in “doggy bags” to take home, and of course, be treated to plenty of belly rubs and head scratches, too.
For the second year, Tripadvisor is supporting CESAR Restaurant Weekend, as part of its ongoing partnership with Mars Petcare. In collaboration with the CESAR brand, Tripadvisor offers a comprehensive selection of pet-friendly travel and dining resources. You can check out the AI-boosted Trip Builder for pet-friendly vacation planning, or browse exclusive city guides spotlighting BETTER CITIES FOR PETS™-certified communities. With the help of these tools, pet parents can effortlessly find the best places to eat, stay and play with their dogs – making every journey more enjoyable for the entire family.
So, if summer dining and foodie travel adventures are your thing, now’s your chance to bring your furry friends along, and maybe meet some new pups along the way!
