Atmosphere:
The place itself is tiny. Tried to get a reservation on same day via website, & it was apparently fully booked... decided to go anyway hoping we may be able to sit if we waited a little bit; Lo & behold, the place was completely empty??? So no wait time for us (yay!)
Service:
Service was quick & courteous without more... exchanged maybe 15 words with the waitress from start to finish.
Food:
We ordered
- Fattouch salad
- Cold mezzes tasting plater (hummus, baba ganouj, labneh & muhamara for 22$)
- Hot mezze tasting plater (patries - for 24$)
- kibbeh neye (raw beef with bulgur)
The kibbeh neye was good; its price,quality & quantity in line with other good libanese/syrian restaurants.
The fattoush salad was a ~mess~:
For 18$ I expect more salad than the size of my hand or at the very least a good quality salad. The salad was extremely bland; aside from the fresh mint & overly generous pomegranate molasses drizzle on top there was no identifiable dressing. There were giant chunks of tomatoes (1 1/2' thick), & about 3 large pieces of libanese cucumber.
The cold mezze were ~VERY~ expensive for their price & the quality was frankly not there. This was the worst baba banouj we've ever tasted (doubtful they even put salt in there), the muhamara was... okay, the labneh was a complete bust (plain, store-bought quality labneh decorated with ~dried~ mint. There was about 2 table spoons' worth of dip in every tiny bowl.
The hot mezzes were really good - again, too expensive for the size.
Overall I do not recommend this place.View more

Meat is well seasoned, but the hummus is lacking flavour… for the price, I would expect better quality ingredients. Good service & good atmosphere though!View more

Best lebanese I've had!
My husband has raved about this place since he lived in Montreal 10+ years ago. We revisited his old haunting grounds, & he's happy to report that the quality is still the same. The chef/owner has been consistently making great Lebanese food. & even recognized my husband!
Everything was so delicious. The hummus was very creamy, the fattoush dressing was well balanced, the sojok spices were out of this world, the fatteh hummus was very unique, & the jebneh was perfectly crunchy. We also got the kanefe, but it was a bit sweet for my taste.
I would come back in a heartbeat. If you want fresh, delicious Lebanese food with great service, this is your spot.View more

Walked past this place 100 times always packed finally decided to go try it out & was super happy. Everything was 1010. Fattoush, Hummus, & the shish taouk were to die for. Had leftover too, lady was sweet & the atmosphere was small & cozy felt like eating in an aunties house:) highly highly recommendView more

Super small & cramped place but did not feel claustrophobic, it's more cozy! Came by without a reservation for lunch (2 people) & was lucky to get a seat. We shared pita, rice, chicken shish taouk & fatteh hummus with beef. The pita was fresh. Shish Taouk: lovely, grilled to perfection, came with creamy, yummy garlic sauce that went very quickly, comes with pickles & some weird pizza looking situation with onions which I did not try but looked good. Fatteh Hummus: a bit disappointed because they were really light on the beef but I've seen photos where they really gave a lot. The crunchy pita chips in the dip were WAY to oily - the establishment would benefit from getting crispy without tons of oil. I genuinely think this dip would've been better with garlic or tzatziki added to it. It was missing a brightness/acid which made it bit plain. The rice was just rice. All in all, I enjoyed my meal & was pretty stuffed. This cost us about $60 before tip.View more

I went last night for a supper with lebanese friends that know the taste of the original lebanese food & really like this place & I honestly have to say the food is amazing, the service kind & fast & the place cozy, not very big, enough for small groups of people. We ordered Hummus, Baba ghannouj, SHISH TAOUK (omg so juicy & tender, my favorite), TABBOULEH, Vine leaves, Pita, Potatoes, SAMBOUSIK LAHMEH, RIKAKAT JEBNEH, KIBBEH NAYYEH, KENAFEH, all to share. The price in the average, 40$ each ish. My husband is an introvert person & for the first time i saw the happiness on his face for a food ahaha I'll come back for sure to try other specialitiesView more

Very authentic little restaurant, all Lebanese (waiters speak Arabic). Service fast & friendly. Good thing too because the place is TINY & gets packed at night. Barely enough room for everybody, like eating in a submarine. Outside seating is ok, but small, light wooden tables. Paper napkins. WC is ok but tiny & only one (queue). Food was quite good but portions felt small, not quite enough. We needed to order potatoes. The pita bread was simply bad, stale almost, wrapped in cheap plastic, cold. This could be an easy fix. Not good. The friend halloumi cheese was well done, as were the French fries & garlic potatoes (needed for satiety). The kebabs were ok, not great. The hummus again, ok (where's the oil? where's the red spice on top). The vegetables, frugal serving at best (3 tomato slices, 3 cucumber slices, that's all). Might be tolerable but...prices are sky-rocket high. Without drinks of any kind, you cannot escapeView more

Always a delicious experience. The fatteh hummus is spectacular & so is the kenafeh. The garlic potatoes are spiced to perfection!View more

Garage Beirut offers an exceptional Mediterranean dining experience with its Lebanese mezze & charcoal-grilled meats. The atmosphere is cozy & the manager Naji extremely accommodating. The mezze, including creamy hummus, exquisite muhamarra, refreshing tabbouleh, mouth watering sujok , & freshly stuffed grape leaves, was outstanding. The mixed grill platter we shared between 3 people had a generous portion of chicken & beef kebabs, was grilled to perfection with a smoky, tender, & juicy flavor. The knowledgeable & attentive staff added to the delightful experience. For anyone who loves Mediterranean cuisine, this restaurant is a must-visit, earning a well-deserved five-star rating.View more

Cozy Lebanese place downtown, with a variety of dishes. Fatteh hummus, a yogurt base with crispy pita, cashews, & pomegranate to top. Really crunchy with a great texture profile to accompany their tough flatbread. I really adored their sojok, a crumbly beef sausage that was salty with some Middle Eastern undertones. It came with pomegranate syrup for some sweet & sticky contrast. Garlic potatoes had a crispy exterior, slightly soft interior, appropriate amount of seasoning, & garlic sauce was nice but they put it in a shallow bowl & it got everywhere. Their kenafeh was a sweet, pastry, slightly wet from a syrup on a bed of cheese. It was fragile compared to the tough cheese & the taste was fine.View more

Authentic lebanese restaurant. We got halloumi chese, kebab, & hummus. It was a great experience.View more

I recently dined at this wonderful Lebanese restaurant in Montreal & had an amazing experience. The atmosphere was cozy & inviting, but can be a bit noisy. The food was delicious, especially the hummus & fatoosh & baba ganouj. The staff were friendly & attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this gem for authentic Lebanese cuisine!View more

Extremely tasty Lebanese food. My friend & I started off with the variety plate of starters, which was an excellent start (especially the rikakat jebneh). We then split an entrée of filet mignon & an entrée of kebab khash-khash, both of which were delicious. The regular hummus was great as well, as were the sides that came with the meals. Overall, the food was a slam dunk. It's a pretty confined space, & the two of us sat directly in the middle, so we had to shuffle about a few times. Other than that, the vibes were good. It's literally the case that the restaurant was built out of someone's garage in their house.View more

A late entry, visited early March- small & cozy place with great authentic Lebanese cuisine. Loved the Sojok, hummus bi lahmé, arrayess, fattouch & everything else we ordered. I wish we have similar authentic Lebanese food in Miami!View more

A very cozy & small place, definitely loved the vibe & subtle decor. My partner & I went for Valentine's day!! The food is quite expensive for the portions. However, no complaints about the food besides the portion size. This place was recommended by my partner's patient, & it was a hit for us! If we were to go back we'd order a larger plate & hopefully the portion will be reasonable. We ordered the hummus & the cheese. The cheese was extraordinary, & I would definitely order again, would have liked more vegetables considering it was almost 20$ for cheese & some cucumbers & tomatoes. The servers were super friendly & they were attentive, came to ask how we were doing, & even changed our reservation spot because we had asked to he near a window. Would love to come here again!View more

we ordered the dip taster, pastry plate, moussaka, grilled halloumi, kebab khash khash, fatteh hummus, & garlic potatoes. all were yummy but our favorites were the garlic potatoes (hard 2 to go wrong), moussaka (the eggplant was very flavorful despite appearances), muhammara red pepper dip & the baba ghannouj. their hummus is lowkey whatever & halloumi is not worth it. the kebab was adequately juicy but not spicy as advertised. pita is whatever. altogether yummy but nothing spectacular cost wise, $30+ after tip & tax split between 5 people with a little bit food leftover. online reservation required input of credit card information & there is a 15 minute grace period before your table gets forfeited to the next waiting customers. it's a small restaurant with max capacity of like 30ish people so it makes sense. you should probably make a reservation to eat hereView more

Great place. Wonderful food & service. We got lucky & they squeezed us in. The hummus is amazing. The pita is fresh & warm. The beef was great. The service was very good. They made space for us without reservations. It was a tight space but with a pleasant atmosphere. They seemed to have a lot of takeouts as well.View more

Great service & nice guys, but the kebabs both meat & chicken were dry & so bland. Fatteh Hummus was so heavy & needed to be more sour. Nice experience though.View more
