Dog walking in Surfside

Sunset Beach - Huntington Beach

If you’re looking for somewhere to eat with your dog, make sure to visit Brix Sunset Beach in Huntington Beach! This restaurant is located less than a mile from Surfside, so you even have the option to walk there. Brix serves up classic American fare, with the most popular dish being a pastrami sandwich called the “Fuhgeddaboudit.” Dog-friendly tables are limited, though; there are only three, so you might want to call ahead to check that a table is available. A leash is required, as is good behavior -- by both you and your furry friend.
