    We made a reservation for 5 and were given a table for 4. We requested a move but the table was still small. Our kiddos ordered lemonade and it sour. Bummer because we ordered 3.

    It was a fun place to go. The food was good, not great. We had to ask for bread also. Our server was really nice and helpful.

    Long wait to order, even though we had reservations. Cold scrambled eggs for brunch. Asked for salt and pepper that never arrived. Bacon not crisp as ordered. This used to be our “go to” spot. We’ll give it one more chance. If it’s not a lot better we will (sadly) cross it off our list.

    Busy buzzy Saturday at the Garage. We shared the Sottoterra, a warm salad with the infamous pizza oven foccacia followed by the Short Rib Pappardelle special and ended with the panna cotta desert (two to be exact, but who's counting). It was beyond outstanding.
