    Three of us had a lovely meal on the patio - sat at a table on the corner of Columbus and 62nd and were able to watch the sun set down 62nd St between the buildings. The margaritas are wonderful and the food is always excellent. Quiet except for the occasional emergency vehicle barreling down Columbus.

    My Sunday brunch/lunch today at THE BARKING DOG was absolutely perfect. I arrived very early for my reservation and was seated inside. This was a plus today because the temp was freezing. Everyone was very friendly and considerate. The Matre d' stopped by our table. My salad was delicious, and my son's egg special looked delicious as well. We had more than enough time, since we were seeing a matinee at the WORLD STAGES next door. We doddled at our table and no one rushed us. A perfect combination of concerned and prompt service, outstanding cuisine, and a relaxed ambiance. The presence of numerous delightful dogs added to this ambience, and I do love dogs.
