Hanibal and Evin opened the Barkin’ Dog Grill in 2004 after growing tired of driving to the Bay Area in search of a terrific burger. In addition both are passionate about how their burgers are produced, securing top-quality dry aged natural ground beef from local farmers to make a product they are proud to serve their customers. The two support local musicians, visual artists, and poets and their busy calendar of events supports this claim. They also love to do specialized caterings and events where Evin can show off her culinary talents by offering custom menus to their guests.
