As much as I've enjoyed their pastas I have noticed a some decline and probable changes. I've been a couple of times recently in the last couple of months and every time the sauces seemed a bit watered down and less flavorful. I also remembered their pastas coming with garlic bread but I had to order garlic bread the last time. Anyways, the actual cook of the pasta has been consistently good so I can't complain there. They aren't the quickest to get your food out but for the overall quality I am pretty much always willing to wait for well prepared food. As for ambiance, I mean it's a food truck so not much to say there.

The freshness of their house made pesto pasta is top notch it just melts in your mouth with each bite.

I recommend making a reservation ahead of time, especially on weekends, as wait times can get long or they may not have any availability at all. I don't like how dark it is inside, so I prefer sitting near the front by the bar, where there's more lighting. They offer some special and seasonal items, but I've mostly enjoyed their wood-fired pizzas, espcially the Prosciutto and Arugula. I've also enjoyed their braised short ribs, skirt steak, and buttermilk chicken sandwich. For brunch, I usually get the Short Rib Poutine and house-made doughnuts, but I noticed the poutine was no longer on the menu during my most recent visit. Their furikake fries and deviled eggs are also good. Overall, a decent restaurant for brunch, lunch, and dinner.

The weekly specials here are amazing and my most recent visit was on a Monday for Locals Night where all dishes are $16. Great deal! The restaurant was the most packed I've seen but the service was still great and our food still came out quickly. Our rib eye steaks were cooked perfectly.

Welcome to Garlic Brothers - my favorite garlic restaurant in Stockton. I would say my favorite…read moreItalian restaurant - but at Garlic Bro's, it really is all about the garlic. And I love it! Garlic Bro's is a not so hidden local favorite that has become much more popular through the years. It sits right on the Delta for a perfect water-front view for outside dining and those lucky enough to get the huge bay window seating on the inside. I can order a full meal just on the appetizers alone. Ive tried them all. The fried raviolis and the grilled duck wraps (in bacon) are among my favorites. Garlic Bro's has a unique selection of oven baked pizza's but when I come to Garlic Bro's, it's all about the entree's for me. My all-time favorite is the grilled garlic steak. It is the best rib eye steak in Stockton. I order mine blackened (crispy outside) with the brown mushroom gravy that comes in a side dish. For sides, I order the garlic mashed potatoes. They taste creamy good by itself but remember the mushroom brown gravy I ordered for the steak? It's really for my garlic mashed potato's. A perfect combo. Consider this a Pro Tip. My other side is the green death pasta. You have to request it (another Pro Tip). I've tried pesto pasta everywhere and it's only this delicious at Garlic Bro's. The honorable mention is the grilled pork steak. The best pork steak in Stockton. The grilled lamb chops are good - just not as great as the other two entrees....but I'm a very tough critic when it comes to lamb chops. One thing to know at Garlic Bro's is they don't water down the mixed drinks. You definitely get what you pay for. And the price tag is actually pretty reasonable. Garlic Bro's can get very busy so come early for good seats and parking - because they don't take reservations.

The food was incredibly bland and didn't taste like authentic Italian cuisine at all. The trio plate was especially disappointing. The Alfredo had almost no sauce and absolutely no flavor, and the pesto tasted like it came straight from a jar. Overall, everything was just mediocre and lacked the rich, fresh flavors you'd expect from an Italian restaurant. The service was painfully slow throughout the meal, and to make matters worse, there wasn't any wine, beer, or other alcohol available, which was surprising for an Italian restaurant. The dining room was also uncomfortably hot. It appears they only use wall-mounted air conditioning units, and they weren't keeping up, making it difficult to enjoy the meal. The only reason I'm giving this an extra star is because the green beans served with the chicken Marsala were actually pretty good. Unfortunately, one good side dish wasn't enough to make up for the long wait, bland food, slow service, and uncomfortable atmosphere. I won't be returning.

Came the other day with my coworker for a quick bite on my lunch break. I was a first timer and let me tell you this I will definitely be returning! We were nicely greeted by the 2 ladies at the counter, they had no problem answering any questions I had. What I liked the most was the wide selection of pastas they have. AND you can sample any of them before purchasing! I tried the pesto, and like many others I agree on the bland flavor. But it didnt bother me too much, I just chose a different pasta and was completely satisfied! (Spicy asparagus ravioli is to die for). Another thing I liked was the large portions, and quick service. Got back to work & had enough time to eat my lunch in peace. 5 stars from me! All around good place. read more

She only had a small piece so my hubby and son enjoyed the leftovers. They loved dipping the bread in the rich sauce. I tried a couple bites of the combo pizza. It was delicious and my son was very happy with it. I had one of the specials of the day, a Meatloaf Sandwich with pasta salad. I've usually had coleslaw inside of a BBQ pork, chicken, or fish sandwich. But the combo of tangy coleslaw with tender meatloaf was fantastic and creative. The bread was soft and fluffy.

For dessert we shared the chocolate lava cake and lemon cake with raspberry sauce and whipped cream. All 10/10! Service was very friendly and the place is big, bright, and welcoming.
