Garage Kitchen + Bar

We happened by this place as we were looking for a place to eat in the Gaslamp. So glad we stopped in. The food was delicious. The service was friendly. And the atmosphere was enjoyable. I would definitely go back for the bacon jam alone. Great find in the Gaslamp!

Definitely didn't expect this place to be so good ! Came here for bottomless mimosas for the My brother, dad and husband but even the food had us surprised. Mimosas were delicious! Perfect balance of champagne and orange juice that didn't taste too strong of either. Definitely one of the best momosas I have tasted. Only downside here was that the service was quite slow in terms of the mimosa refills. We had to call them multiple times to refill us. (We came to the restaurant with 1 hour left of the brunch service So we're hoping to get quicker refills but they took quite a long time) COBB SALAD (Romaine Lettuce | Chicken Breast | Hard Boiled Egg | Bacon Blue | Cheese Crumbles |Pickled Onions | Grape Tomatoes) - So ginormous and so delicious! Quite a large amount of bacon and blue cheese so I took some of it out but it was so good on its own that I didn't even need the dressing! THE BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICH EVER ( Wild Boar Sausage |Over Hard Egg | Cheddar | Bacon Jam | Cheddar Chive Biscuit | Rosemary Potatoes) - Husband got this one. He really enjoyed the flavor of everything. Everyone on the table tried and liked it as well. The cheddar chive biscuit was quite a surprise. I absolutely love those Rosemary potatoes on the side! So perfectly crispy and didn't seem to greasy either. Right amount of Rosemary flavor on there and just a beautiful side dish overall. NASHVILLE CHICKEN SANDWICH (Fried Chicken House Slaw | Pickles | Spicy Aioli | Brioche Bun) - This was one big sandwich! Really giant chunk of chicken in there and good amount of coleslaw and aioli as well. Flavor was on point too. Good amount of spiciness in the fried chicken and went well with the slaw and ayoli and pickles. Everyone loved the sandwich. BUTCHER'S BURGER (Blend of Bison Wild Boar & Beef Bacon Jam | Cheddar | Lettuce | Tomato | Crispy Shallots | Garage Sauce | Brioche Bun) - my brother got this And definitely enjoyed. He's a big fan of burgers and loved the portion size on this one. It was one of those burgers that is just very loaded with fillings and that made it so much better. Came with fries on the side. Generous portion size of the fries as well, and no complaints because those were good fries!

I couldn’t be more pleased with the level of service we received. Upon arriving we were greeted at the door. Seated, a waiter came over with water. I didn’t catch her name she’s a beauty dark skin, with hair pinned back. However, she waited patiently for us to order, asked if we had any questions. She offered her suggestions. We ordered the wraps and fries and a cocktail. Drinks were perfect, another waiter gentleman brought the drinks, with a smile. Didn’t catch his name either. But full of energy. Kind of dark brownish hair. However they work good as a team. With was something I never seen. It was a baseball game that day so it started to pick up. They tagged team so well. Food came out soon we blanked our eyes. My husband noticed the wings, and decided to order some after the waiter(guy) made a suggestion about how to order them. Let me just say they were a hit. We loved our experience. We then found out the lady that seated us was the manager. Sara, we complimented her staff especially the waiters. We were the couple that sat at the high table. When we come back to visit we will be back! Please keep up the good work!

Loved this place. Great food. Great people. Great atmosphere. I highly recommend giving it a try.

We went for both dinner and brunch on friday and saturday. I had the blue cheese burger, cooked medium. The burger was pretty good and the pieces of thick cut bacon were cooked just right. I think the burger could have used just a little bit more blue cheese. The parmesan fries kinda sucked. My wife had the Ricotta Gnocchi, she liked it and would order it again. Today, we went back for brunch. We wanted to try the smores french toast and carne asada eggs benny. Both were pretty good.

Pretty much chose this place to have dinner by chance. We were visiting San Diego as an anniversary get away trip. The Garage Kitchen + Bar has a public house vibe. The menu isn't extensive, but has some good variety of bar fare. We chose to order the Ahi Tuna nachos and a French dip sandwich with fries, along with a specialty bar drink. We weren't too sure what the nachos were going to be like. When our food arrived, we were pleasantly presented with a well plated masterpiece of nachos. The tuna nachos were SO good! The French dip was good too. Nice tender roast beef, with a good flavor and just enough au jus. We really enjoyed our dinner and drinks.
