"Looking to take your dog out for dinner? Hit up Giacomo’s Cibo e Vino, a neighborhood Italian classic with a dog-friendly patio. Despite being right off Westheimer in River Oaks, dining al fresco feels relatively peaceful thanks to a shroud of vines and a red umbrella canopy. Split a charcuterie board, mozzarella-stuffed radicchio, eggplant parmesan, and bowls of housemade or imported pastas Lady-and-the-Tramp style. Humans can also enjoy a few glasses of wine from a number of female winemakers, which Giacomo’s makes sure to note on the menu." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
