Barkin' Dog Grill - Modesto

Came here for lunch with my brother. The menu was small which to me is a good thing. Busy menus can lose a customer by offering to many choices. Stick to what works and make the best food possible. I ordered the bacon avocado burger. The wait time during lunch time was average. Ill say i didn't Wait too long at all to receive my meal. I got my burger. First impression was the burger was a bit small. Now that we got the size out of the way, let's talk about the flavor. The burger was GOOD. Everything from the bun to the burger was good. After eating my burger and most of my fries, I can say I was satisfied. Maybe that's why I am fat because I expect a big burger when I don't need one. Haha I would recommend stopping by here for lunch. Side note for you Pepsi drinkers, this place serves Pepsi. Yes I know, big thumbs up for Pepsi.

This is the very best except mine) burgers in town period. And he is not a chain and he care on how the meal is made and he greets all the customer and make sure they are having a good meal and good time. Live band periodically will play here too. And you can see how many time my wife and I also with friends . So this is a must to try . You will be hooked

Lots of carnivore choices, but actually some great vegetarian choices too! I got the feta sandwich and fries. The fries were fresh and hot and had a very nice seasoning. The feta sandwich was delicious, a nice thick slice of feta, fresh produce and a balsamic reduction drizzle. I intended on eating only half but ended up finishing the whole thing; it was so good. My friend got the veggie burger. Two vegetarian options, both were fresh and delicious.

Barkin Dog is one of the best kept secrets in downtown Modesto. The food is always tasty and fresh and flavorful. The customer service is very friendly and attentive to each customer. Hannibal (the owner) is always there to greet you and see that you have what you need. It's as if you'd come to his home to eat and enjoy yourselves for a meal. Hospitality is wonderful there. So drop in for a bite to eat, before going to The Gallo Theater or to take in a movie. You can always drop by afterwards as well. They even have bands playing on some evenings to just chill and listen to. Treat yourselves to a great meal, great service and make sure you meet Hannibal. AND don't take the name Barkin' Dog fool you. There's a whole menu of different dishes to choose from

The live music was the best part of the evening!! The servers were very nice and were running their tails off. Unfortunately 2 servers on a Friday night is unreal!! There is no way everyone is going to get taken care of in a busy service w only 2 servers!! The food also had the potential to be great but had no seasoning.. Salt would have gone a long way to improving our meals. The best food was dessert! The peanut butter chocolate shake was delicious!
