We love Buona Forchetta! It's such a fun, warm, and inviting restaurant. We can't say enough about their customer service; they treat you like family! We highly recommend dining here. Great food, great service, and wonderful atmosphere!

Candace

We love that they have many options for traditional Italian food lovers as well as those who need gluten free or vegan options. Staff was very friendly and food was delicious. Highly recommend the Spaghetti Puttanesca!

Lynn

Reliable neighborhood Restaurant. Friendly staff and yummy food. The thin crust pizza is always a winner. The Covid era “short term” outdoor dining area has become permanent it seems so it's time for an upgrade to the tent and artificial turf. Highly recommend!

The Garage never misses! The food and service are always top-notch, and it's our favorite spot to bring family or meet friends for dinner. The menu has something for everyone — the Eva Pizza is incredible, and every pasta dish we've tried has been spot-on. Great atmosphere, consistently excellent service, and delicious food every time. Highly recommend

Peter

Best pizza ever. All food was excellent and reasonably priced. Good service. Ambiance about what you'd expect from a place with “garage” in its name. Highly recommended.

Food is excellent. The atmosphere is okay. Sat outside under portable white tents with propane heaters. The tents have been there for several years. It's time to upgrade to permanent structures that are more in line with Italian dining ambiance. It feels a bit cheap. Like a wedding reception in a backyard. However, inside the "garage" is quite nice. the service is good and the staff is friendly and attentive without hovering.

Fun family causal place. Live music on Friday. Large selection of pasta and pizza. Pasta is good. Pizza and apps were just ok. Good service. It can be very loud.

Garage Buona Forchetta has a large, interesting interior and an extensive menu. Great pizza and side dishes. Everyone in our large group enjoyed their food. House red wine (Sangiovese) by the glass was delicious and was a good deal at $10 per glass. Our wait staff changed suddenly throughout the dinner, so it was a bit confusing when we needed anything. One of our group had to wait quite a while for her glass of wine even though it was ordered at the same time as the rest of us. (We were trying to toast to a special birthday.)

Gluten free options on the menu! Delicious food, delightful atmosphere, charming staff. BUT beware the pizza: GF pizzas go directly on the same brick as the regular pizzas and they use the same utensils. I ordered GF pasta carbonara. The server warned me that it would take 40 minutes for clean water. It was worth the wait.

This is one of our must do’s when visiting Coronado. Food is always delicious and large portions. Every staff we interacted with are always kind, fun and makes great recommendations. We also love that our pups can join us in the shaded outdoor seating area.

The pizza is phenomenal and the lasagna is authentic,but for me it just needs a little more seasoning. They don't have free refills,so you have to purchase a drink everytime you need one. The dining experience was nice with friendly staff. I would definitely return and suggest that you try it if in the area.
