Garage Beirut receives broad praise for authentic Lebanese cuisine, with fresh, flavor-packed mezze and well executed grilled dishes like shish taouk, kebabs and kafta, along with crowd favorites such as hummus, baba ghannouj, labneh, muhammara and fattoush that many reviewers rate as standout or keeping a homey Beirut vibe. The atmosphere is described as cozy, intimate and welcoming, often compared to dining at a friend's house, and the service is usually friendly, attentive and efficient, though a few mentions of slow moments or crowded conditions exist. Reservations are commonly recommended because the space is small and usually busy, and some comments note that the restaurant can be pricey for portion sizes or that certain tasting plates feel expensive; a booking fee and occasional sound issues in a tight room are also cited by a minority. Overall Garage Beirut is regarded as one of the best Lebanese spots in the city, delivering authentic flavors, high quality ingredients and a memorable dining experience that keeps diners coming back.

This place is a delightful gem, reminiscent of a cozy eatery in a Beirut neighborhood. The service was outstanding, & the food closely matched the flavors I remember from my childhood in Beirut.

Cozy small lebanese restaurant. The food was amazing, feels like you actually are in Lebanon. The service is excellent, the waiters are very friendly. I ordered taboule, shish taouk & kafta.

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!

4.0

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!
