    Great place nice and clean with a welcoming atmosphere. We were sat promptly and attended to quickly. Our server Randy was very respectful and you could tell he was very familiar with the menu and comfortable giving suggestions when asked. The food was great seasoned well and came fairly quick overall I was very satisfied.

    Garage Buona Forchetta has a fantastic ambiance in a convenient location in Coronado. The menu is extensive and there are many options for Gluten Free diners! The GF focaccia bread/pizzas fools everyone that it's actual GF with fluffy consistency and amazing taste.

    Server only offered us bottled water for $6 per bottle when all other tables had carafes. No explanation. No olive oil or cheese on the table nor offered to us. EVERYTHING was a la carte without explanation.

    Another fantastic meal at of our favorite restaurants. We live in Phoenix, but visit Coronado twice a year and always come here. We sat at the bar and Alan took great care of us. My wife had bucatini with Bolognese and I had bucatini with the Buona Forchetta sauce with Italian sausage. We split a side of sautéed spinach which was delicious. Alan crafted a pair of excellent cocktails, a Manhattan and a Martini, and picked an excellent bottle of wine. We were celebrating our back to back birthdays so they brought us an excellent Tiramisu. We will be back!
