Garlic City Cafe Reviews
We couldn't get tickets to the Garlic Fesitival so we stopped here for lunch. It wasn't busy but no wait for a table for 2. Food was really good and service was pleasant.
Garlic City Cafe lived up to the reviews and photos! Exquisite food, excellent service, and clean & comfortable indoor and patio seating. Especially enjoyed the garlic cream soup, the roasted garlic 1/4 lb burger, and the garlic vanilla ice cream. Looking forward to visiting during our next stop in Gilroy!
Nice omelet. Good service. I had the garlic omelet. Clean. Quality ingredients. Expensive for breakfast. 🍳
