| - We made it twice to "The Garage" and were easily converted into big fans!
One of the best things about the place was the ambiance and decor. The cool layout made us feel like we were in a very cozy and long established bar.
Like some other Yelpers, one of the things we like to do is check out the bathroom in new places! The "garage paraphernalia" tucked into the walls and the industrial sink are some pretty cool touches. Think modern man bathroom...with class! :) Kesha should shoot a video here!
As far as the food and drinks go, we were equally pleased. We sampled the wings (Chili Claypot...fantastic!), the sweet potato fries, the chopped wedge salad, the meat lovers flatbread, and the bratwurst. While the bratwurst was very tasty, I was hoping for a big ol' uber-bratwurst. The rest of the food we had was way above average. The food definitely seemed dialed in. Both times we went (more happy hour excursions) our order was quickly delivered....and quickly consumed.
The drinks were a steal too! The tap selection was very eclectic and if you like Jack & Coke, try their well-whiskey. Very tasty! The Mrs. went with a Bacardi (well-rum) & Diet. Getting back to the beer though...try the Steigel! If you like Stella Artois, you will love this one.
This is going to be a frequent spot for us and gives us one more reason to wish we lived in the neighborhood. This is at least a 4 1/2 star place!
Note: On our last visit, we had the good fortune of meeting the owner, Ted. Ted's character comes out in his bar. He seems like a laid back, enjoy life kind of guy. We truly enjoyed our time sitting and chatting with him at the bar.
