Really great place for a first date, there are small cozy spaces and it isn’t too loud. No kids, adults only. Food options were pretty expansive and they had southern comfort food like king ranch casserole and migas!

Older lady waiting tables in the garage was genuinely soo rude. Asked for butter, she said they didnt have any in the most condescending way. Had black stuff floating in the bottom of my tea. So dismissive and rude about it. Food was also so mid. Chicken and waffles with no flavor, and queso that tasted like it came from a jar in the grocery store. Server wouldn’t have known if we enjoyed anything because she never came by to ask. Skip this place, literally go anywhere else and you’ll have a better time and better food.

Best thing about this place...no kids! It's attached to Spoons and has the same food menu, but it's meant to be more of an adult bar.

Great place for salads, but everything else is disappointing. My BLT was very small, had hardly any bacon on it and the bread did not taste like sourdough.

Also disappointed that many of the cocktails are premade in batches...not made fresh to order.

Our server was wonderful though.

Came in here for the first time and it is centrally located in the heart of historic McKinney.

The service was attentive and the decor and ambience nice.

The food is superior, especially when you consider this place to be like a diner.

it is both flavorful and unique. But it’s not so unique that it takes you outside of a comfort zone. Well-balanced. Bravo!

Im gonna give it two stars because the lady was I guess nice about it. Went in yesterday for mother’s day with my in laws and my kids. They welcomed us with dirty looks and then the lady proceeded to tell us usually they don’t accept anyone under 18 yrs old but since it was Mother’s Day they would make an exception. It was pouring outside so we thought we would just stay. We waited for about 10 mins and she came back and told us she had misunderstood and could absolutely not take us with kids but would let us go through the kitchen to the other restaurant Spoons. Already upset we had to say yes due to the rain, as we are being walked around the restaurant we see a table with KIDS! One of them looked to be the same age as one of my kids. This is absurd. Not sure why they didn’t want to take us but I’ve never experienced this!! If they’re not going to take us with kids shouldn’t they say no kids to the rest of the people??!? Shame on them!

Karaoke on Kentucky and the garage every other Thursday night is the BEST!!! Kristie is the MC and Kevin the DJ. Kevin’s a true musician and knows how to bring a great time to all. Chauvon at the garage knows how to take care of you while you have a great time listening to Karaoke on Kentucky. Come on out and enjoy! You’ll have the best and memorable times.Russell

The Garage was already our “Cheers” thanks to Chavonne, but she has taken it up a notch with “Karaoke on Kentucky St.” A fun and engaging atmosphere with the garage door open and everyone cheering on one another. Even if you don’t sing, this is the place to go and have a great time while meeting your fellow McKinnians.

4 words.....karaoke at The Garage!! Wow! We've been there for numerous evenings and we always love it, (the food, drinks and absolutely the service), but this was so much fun! Hopefully they do this again!
