Nice atmosphere and decent service, but this is the 2nd time coming in to get cold food however. The food is on the higher end, so you should not be receiving cold tacos. I will not be returning.

I only come to my hometown about once a year and was going to go to one of my usual places, but they were all closed due to it being a Monday. Decided to try something new this time. Such a cool looking place. The staff were all very accommodating and nice. And the food? OMG. It was so good it’s ridiculous. I’m adding this place to my “where to go” the next time I’m home. You guys are killing it!

Nice atmosphere, very clean, fresh food with plenty of healthy options, excellent service.Dietary restrictions: Food allergy options are clearly listed and I was able to modify an option to accommodate an allergy. There are plenty of options for gluten-free, vegetarians, and vegans.

Great spot. Was hoping they had wings as an app but I was pleasantly surprised after we had the Tortilla chips with 3 dips, great appetizer. Burger was excellent. Staff was very cool.

I recently gave the Garage another try and was very impressed. It was the complete opposite of my previous visit and review. This trip was complete with great food, great service and a welcoming environment. Will be back for sure.

Nachos, tacos and beer...food was great. Nice atmosphere too. Manager came over to see if everything was alright. Gave him a little feedback that was well received. Staff was hard working and on top of things... I'll be back!

I want to start by saying the food was awesome, drinks were awesome, bar tender was awesome, and our help ordering food at the bar was awesome. A lot of awesomes! The only negative part of my first time trying this place was with the hostess and our struggle to try to get seated.For context me and a group of 5 other friends showed up without a reservation around 6:30 on a busy Friday. We walked up to the counter and asked if they had room for a table of 6. The guy checking out to go orders told us we had to talk to the hostess about that. After waiting for about 5 minutes she finally came up to us and asked if she could help us with anything. We said yes, we were looking for a table for 6, and she said no problem, checked the scheduling on her iPad, and said it would be about an hour wait. Since the bar was open we asked if we could sit at the bar and have some drinks and food while we waited for a table to be available, which she said was no problem, and walked away.We sat at the bar, got some drinks right away, ordered some app food which came out quickly and had a great time. About half an hour into our hour long wait we noticed that there were two tables for 6 open the entire time as well as 2 smaller tables. We figured hoped it was for reservations coming in, which we understood as we came without a reservation. 45 minutes in to our supposed hour wait we were getting a little restless as the 6 tops were still open after 45 minutes so we eventually called the hostess back over to check in on our wait. She grabbed her iPad and checked availability and said unfortunately since we don’t have a reservation with them it would be an additional hour and a half plus wait, and then walked away.At that point since we needed dinner we got up and left and went to another restaurant down the road, which we were seated at instantly since the dinner rush was over as it neared 8pm.All of this considered they had more staff working than I have ever seen in a restaurant of that size, a very attentive staff, and the 4 open tables the entire time we were there. My experience overall was a 2/5 as I felt dismissed, unheard, and not care about as a customer. I am not sure if the hostess thought our group or 26 year olds was not worth her time and business or what, but I can assure you we were nothing but respectful the entire time, and even befriends the guy who brought us our apps. I hate leaving negative reviews for a business as I know how impactful that is on a small business. I want to give 4 stars with that in mind, and would even say based on the other service and the 5 that is it 5 star worthily, if we got seated and were able to eat there that night. The treatment our party got was not acceptable really needs to be addressed. If there are no openings for a night that is one thing and just say so, but don’t promise us an hour wait and then bump it up to 2.5 hours total and expect that to be okay.
