Fish fry Friday is such a treat here! Crispy, light batter on perfectly cooked fish. You can hear the crunch with each bite. We sat in front by the windows, very pleasant place. Husband enjoyed his burger too, multi levels of flavor. Delicious food and great service! More

Came in at noon for lunch with a group of four and were seated right away. Service was quick! We loved everything we got except for the artichoke hearts app but I think we just don’t like artichokes. Our favorite appetizers are the Garlic Cheese Dip and Garlic Bites. Portions of our meals were big. Since we had shared some apps we ended up taking at least half of the meals home for later!

Great atmosphere. We sat at a hightop, which is always fun. Our server was engaged, interested and attentive. We had the linguini and clams, which was bland but they gladly retossed it to add more flavor, and the blackened chicken and sun-dried tomato Alfredo. That was excellent. Lots of garlic on both dishes. For dessert, we had the lemon cake with mascarpone cheese. The cake was the hit of the evening. Absolutely outstanding. Would recommend for a fun evening.

Went to Angry Garlic last night for the first time. They were busy and we had about a 45 minute wait. We sat in the bar area in the meantime.
Once we go to our table the waitress Darcy was very friendly and attentive, as well as the hostess Tammy.
We forgot to take pictures of our apps which AMAZING especially the garlic artichoke Naan. The Meatball app was also quite good.
For mains we got the angry riggies which were fantastic. It was hot enough but not too spicy.
Friend got the Doc Jonas with chicken and loved it.
I got the stuff and turf which was good flavor wise and cooked properly. Unfortunately, the steak was incredibly tough and fatty. I know sirloin isn't the most tender or lean but it was chewy and tough to get through.
Otherwise, overall it was good and I'd definitely be back as a massive garlic lover.

We both got burgers and quite throughly enjoyed them. The patties and thick, juicy, and flavourful. The fries were fresh and crispy with a great garlic flavour.
If you’re looking for the lighter fare, I highly recommend the garden salad with their citrus ginger dressing!

If you like good garlic food, this is the place for you. I wanted to try all the things, but we got the cheesy garlic dip and garlic bread to start, which I highly recommend. I got one of their specials, which was garlic, parm cheese, and Dijon mustard on linguine with grilled chicken. It was so good! The staff was super friendly and very attentive, and the decor and artwork of their logo is great. I can't wait to go again!

My husband and I went last night for restaurant week and we had an amazing time. Our waitress Sierra was awesome, incredibly nice and attentive, we really couldn’t have asked for better service. The food was all delicious, well seasoned and proportioned for the 3 course dining week special and everything tasted amazing. For a place that emphasizes garlic in their dishes, nothing was overpowering, it was all very well balanced. We really had no complaints with our experience. They even accidentally poured us 2 of the same beer and instead of keeping it or wasting it, they gave it to us for free along with the one we ordered (now this probably doesn’t happen often but we gladly accepted the mistake :)). I would highly recommend, especially the chicken and chokes!

My friend and I went here on Friday and let me tell you what, their dining week menu did not disappoint!! We split the steak and the shrimp alfredo, and for appetizers, we got crap dip and garlic bites. And then it comes with a little sweet treat, which was a brownie or tiramisu, and we got both and split it. So for 3 courses it was 35!! It is such a great deal if you are in the mood for trying a bit of everything!! The staff is so friendly and made sure everything tasted good, and we never even had to ask for a refill they just came and filled our waters, which I really appreciate!!
