We came on a hot Monday night in Sept and were happy to have no wait. We should have requested a table with a fan because we were sweating! But the food and atmosphere was worth it. Beautiful

Had a lovely experience here for a birthday celebration. Enjoyed the food, wine, and cocktails. The lasagna was delicious. Only down side was our table was in a direct line between the kitchen and the large area of the restaurant. My seat was constantly bumped by guests and staff.

This place is fantastic! The restaurant looks deceptively small from the outside, but it’s enormous inside, so don’t be intimidated by the long line waiting to get in. Parking is a bit of a headache, but once you’re inside, it’s a whole Garlic experience! We had a large party, and everyone was completely raving about the food – everything was delicious!! Service was absolutely top notch – the restaurant was PACKED, but our server didn’t miss anything! He kept our drinks topped up, all of the food orders were accurate, and each course came out with perfect timing – it was really impressive. Definitely recommend!

We got there at 7 pm on a Sunday. When we checked in, we were told that the wait for our party of 3 would be 70 minutes. So we got a drink & went inside to look around. We found a cozy spot by the bar to the right and saw a great spot fir 3. I commented that would be the perfect spot to sit for dinner. Right in front of the musician. About 20 minutes, we get a text. Our table was ready! We walked back up to the hostess stand and followed her right back to the spot that we were hoping to get! Our waiter Cody was super helpful & our dinners were all delicious. We cone to Bew Smyrna for the annual bike & bar every year & we come to the Garlic every time. I recommend this place to everyone I know!

Fantastic all the way around! Entrees and the bread (with roasted garlic, of course) were so delicious. Cioppino was the best ever. Very large portions so I recommend sharing. Fun, eclectic vibe!

Unique and authentic Italian restaurant. Beautiful atmosphere and great dinning experience. We drove 1hr and a half and was worth the drive.

Two people, two drinks each, an appetizer and two entrees, plus tip = $150. Waitress said they were known for the roasted garlic. We were not impressed with it as I thought it’s roasted too long, rendering it flavorless mush. The bruschetta was very good as well as both our entrees. Mine was enough for three meals. Both the white and red sangrias are quite good. The atmosphere is very eclectic and interesting.

Chef’s Kiss the experience was all that I hoped it to be. We had a 90 min wait but the food & service were great! I only wish they took reservations, but I’m sure that’s an age-old request.
