The Garage always a good time. I love riding up in the summer when the garage roll up doors are up and the cornhole bags are out. The food is good, the ambience is on point, and the staff is friendly. My only complaint is they serve their drinks in a heavy duty solo cup, I prefer to drink from glass. It’s a small thing lol.

Went here for dinner and really enjoyed it. I had the make your own burger and my husband had the brisket. Good food made exactly how we asked and quick. Only draw back was the waitress we had wasn’t very good. We called her the«drive by» waitress because she’d asked us how things were but didn’t stop as she was asking and she also forgot to bring us a couple items we asked for(a glass and a side of mayo). I would understand if she was swamped but she wasn’t. She spent more time talking to people not in her station that she knew Aside from that I’d recommend it… Just not the waitress.(The reason for only 4 stars)

The service and atmosphere of this place are more then enough reason to stop by. Drink prices are more than reasonable and the food is all unique takes on the traditional classics. Would recommend to anyone.

I am updating my review for my latest visit. I went on a Thursday night with my boyfriend with a Groupon. It was awesome! We both got the Garage burgers with Garage fries. The Garage burger has improved! The last time I went, the bun was soggy and falling apart, but this time, it held up to the juicy burger. The Garage fries are AMAZING. They have cheese sauce, jalapenos, tomatoes, bacon, scallions, and sour cream. They’re like chili cheese fries… but not. And really good. I would definitely get them again! I am looking forward to going back. I’d say the Garage burger is in my Top 5 burgers in GR!

I always forget how much I love this place until I come back and then i suddenly remember. The food here is unpretentious and the prices match. The food is great, and surprisingly very good. Not sure what they do to their fries but they are seasoned and cooked very well. The service we had tonight was exceptional! A group of 5 of us came in and the waitress nailed everything from drink recommendations to bringing extra napkins and waters before we even had to ask. Drink specials are especially great and all drinks are on the cheaper side of other places in town/they also have a back room great for big groups.

Had lunch at the Garage on Monday around 11:30am. Service was pretty fast which is great when you’re on a limited break from work. I ordered an olive burger and my friend ordered the garage burger. Both were excellent! Fries were hot and crispy just the way they should be. Thanks for a great experience!

I had the Garage Burger with fries. Burger was one of the best I’ve had. I really enjoyed the flavor of the house sauces on the burger and burger was cooked perfectly. We also had onion rings and chips with guacamole for appetizers. The onion rings were also one of the best I’ve had. Batter was light and very tasty on its own, but the sauce served with them made it an extra special treat. Chips and guacamole were also very good.

To celebrate the end of summer swim class we wanted to try out somewhere new. I had heard good things about the Garage but I knew it was a BAR, and had some hesitation about going. So I double then tripled checked reviews on FB and Unilocal that it was, in fact«family friendly». All signs pointed to yes so we headed over… Perhaps it was just not our night or perhaps it meant«family friendly» if your family consists of sailor on leave with his biker friends. So much no. We came in, sat ourselves in a booth, a bored looking waitress/bartender ambled over and took our order. About 2 minutes later the other clientele started spewing F-Bombs louder and faster than NWA after a dozen redbulls. But that wasn’t all, even the music was completely profane and we were stuck helplessly in a horrific moment of awkwardness akin to watching a movie with your grandma when all of a sudden a gratuitous sex scene happens. It. was. awful. We had already ordered or we would have just left. My husband took the kids outside to play corn hole while I cringed. The food was mediocre. I had a burger which tasted like it had been pre-made. The fries were old, soggy and limp. After all the hype I had expected better. For what we paid we could have had much better elsewhere. Bonus though, my kids now have a bigger vocabulary to start school with. I don’t blame a bar for being a bar, but even had my kids not been with me the visit would not have been much better. 2 stars for food/service/atmosphere and definitely not family friendly.

They have an extremely delicious burger, that almost has a homemade vibe vs a standard restaurant burger vibe. Amazing fries and awesome events. If you’re going for lunch service can be a little slow and can be crowded.

Stopped in for a beer a quick bite with some friends after rock climbing across the street. The atmosphere is very cool with all of the old car signs and décor. Booze selection was fairly standard for GR and the menu had traditional selections and a few«original» items. It’s a ways out from downtown — but absolutely worth a look if you’re sick of Ionia.

This place is an old garage turned into a bar a grill. It has a very open feeling to the place. This is not a fancy place they use the old garage look to make a unique experience. The neighborhood is either slightly worn down or on the way up. I hope it’s the latter. I ordered the Garage burger which is cooked in a Au Ju sauce then topped with onion jam and white American cheese along with lettuce and tomatoes. The burger was very good. My new #4 burger in GR. There were 3 of us who all ordered a version of the burger and The only complaint is it needs a better bun. It falls apart too easily. The fries are fantastic as are the onion rings. They may have been the best part of the meal. I highly recommend a visit.

Just visited the Garage for the second time. The garage fries are really good! Place has a nice open setup and friendly staff. Will definitely go back.

I went here a couple weeks ago for a friend’s birthday. I liked the automotive themed décor. I had the garage burger and fries, both were surprisingly really good. The meat tasted fresh and was actually cooked to order, the fries were hand-cut and even the bun was good quality. Everyone else I was with were also really happy with their food. I’ll have to go back to try the French onion soup, which looked amazing. The service was on the slow side, but I was with a large party, it was really busy and we weren’t in a rush so I didn’t mind. The menus and beer selection are somewhat limited, but I’d rather go somewhere with fewer selections and know anything I get is going to be high quality than have more variety but it’s hit or miss.

I got the lugnut sundae and it is weird. The ‘lugnut’ is this fried crunchy dough ball with all these spices including something that tastes like chili powder and curry. If they are trying to be different, they definitely have that going on! As for the beers they’ve only got 4 beers on tap. Pretty disappointed and very weirded out by this chili curry puff ball ice cream sundae.

Food was really really good! The beer selection wasn’t huge but GR focuses too much on beer anyways. Service was good, atmosphere was chill, bar was clean & well lit. Did I mention the food was really good? The next time I want some pub food this will be my 1st choice. I was able to park close, get a table, stay & hang out, hear the person across the table, and have great food! Bye bye downtown bars!

Not the best part of town, but heard lots of good things about this place. Went with their signature fries and burger. The fries were fresh and covered with a ton of toppings. The burger reminded me of a White Castle slider — don’t get me wrong, I actually really like White Castle. The flavor of steamed onions soaked into a bun was all I could think of when biting into it — if you had a slider, you’ll know what I mean. The manager brought our table some house made nut mixture of sweet and spicy which was very tasty. They could use a few more taps as the Vandermill cider I had was from a can. They have another section of the restaurant that has live music. Good but not great.

4 stars because they are still new and working out tweaks. Food was so yummy! I have been turn off on onion rings for years. Those I could make love too! Oh my goodness, those were crunchy, sweet onions and not greasy. I got a BYOB(build your own burger). The onion jam, oh the onion jam. Yes please, on anything! FOr $ 2.00 extra, I added in the Garage fries to my burger and it was worth it. Bacon, cheese, jalapeños, and this sauce. Very good. My only criticism is they were a bit salty; though that didn’t stop me from finishing them all. Water is good, just as my on special PBR draft. My hubby got the Garage Burger and a side of onion rings. I have said my gushing review on the onion rings already. After a bite of the Garage Burger, wow! I can only say it is rich… what it wrong with indulging now and then, right? Overall, you know I will be back. Great atmosphere, great waitress(Michelle). She said the kitchen was backed up; but, we did notice any delay. Thumbs up!

Got the last available table at 5:30 on Thursday night! Atmosphere was great. Clean restaurant with great service. Owner greeted our table and thanked us for coming in. In a city full of great dining options it was a nice touch. «Garage» /«car» type décor wasn’t overdone. I can’t wait to come back in the Spring when they open the garage doors. More than just«bar food», seriously well done.

Great food and service! I would recommend checking it out. I had the burger and my wife had the pulled pork sandwich. Both were great. The fries are amazing. I can’t wait to go back and try the homemade meatballs. The owner Kevin even stopped by the table to welcome us and introduce himself. The new décor is clean and fun. They have a garage door that opens for when the weather warms up again. This will be a fun place to go for their street parties during the summer.
