    We came here for lunch since we were in the area. The yeamans hall shopping center where this restaurant is pretty unrecognizable in a good way. The inside was pretty roomy and they covered the porch so it was pretty warm and comfortable to sit there. We ordered the vanilla milkshake and strawberry milkshake. Which I vote delicious for the vanilla milkshake. We also ordered the orange Julius , dirty soda and it was very refreshing and delicious. We ordered the pizza and this is the thin pizza. We also ordered the crispy brussel sprouts and general tso chicken wings and they both pretty good. We were pretty happy with the food and the milkshake and so did the kids. We call that a win!

    The bar "stools"

    LOVE this place!! What a fun & unique concept. Whoever did the renovation from gas station to restaurant, did a fantastic job! I love that the "bar stools" are the old long car seats that feel more like a couch than a chair. My husband and I are from New England. I read an article that stated this place has what they are calling "northeast style" thin crust pizza that can be eaten hot or cold without losing its flavor integrity = curiosity immediately peaked! We cautiously ordered a cheese pizza to test the waters as other pizza we've had in the South labeled as related to the North, has been anything but! However, we were both instantly impressed with this pizza after the first bite! It does have that thin crust I recognize with excellent flavor. We're already looking forward to coming back! I would definitely recommend checking this place out! :)

    Meat Stick 3000

    My kids picked this place out because they saw pictures of hamburgers. I knew nothing until I came in. Despite a full lot we immediate had a seat and saw there was seats to spare. Outdoor seating was nice and warm despite it being a bit of a chilly night. Decor is 50's gas station, kind of a hipster rockabilly thing. Honestly the menu wasn't my cup of tea, lots of fancied up stuff. My daughter ordered the corn puppies, and after asking what a "Meat Stick 3000" was I ordered that. All three of us had burgers and fries. Corn puppies turned out to be mini corn dogs and quite good, the Meat Stick 3000 is basically a patty of Greek spiced meat on top of fries with a creamy whipped feta and tzatziki sauce and salad veggies, and I really liked it! Burger was A+. Smash style, gooey cheese, decent bacon, and a sauce I can't quite describe but I liked. The fries were outstanding too, and in a rare feat actually seemed to get a little more crispy as they cooled off. The real tell was my kids. My daughter always just says "it's good" when I ask her about her food and her inflection tells you how good it is. My son usually just says "fine". My daughter we said "this is really good" and my son said "it's amazing". He also ate his entire hamburger... which I have never seen him do in one sitting before, and he has never eaten anything before the fries before. He even had a strawberry milkshake which he liked. Best of all was the price. I'm used to leaving these Charleston restaurants feeling like I was robbed but the price for a burger and fries here was right around Five Guys price. Everything was super reasonable! Menu also has a decent assortment of alcohol and dirty sodas, and some pizza. Service was fast, friendly, and efficient. Really liked our server, but I didn't remember her name and I didn't take a receipt (save a tree!) to look up later. My kids both said Johnny's Garage was one of the best places they have been too and I think they are onto something. Fast food, fair prices, great flavor, not too greasy or heavy, and friendly service add up to a nice find. J.Ja

    Johnny's Garage in Hanahan definitely nails the vibe -- the decor is fun, the theme is creative, and the atmosphere makes it a great spot to hang out. Service was quick and friendly, which I really appreciated. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the setting. The vanilla and chocolate milkshakes were pretty underwhelming, and the garage fries had no flavor at all. With such a cool concept, I was hoping for a menu that matched the energy. It's a great space with potential, but they've got some work to do on the food side to make it worth coming back for more than just the vibe.

    I really want to come back and try more things, but after my first visit, I had a good experience. It was a quiet afternoon with most people sitting at the bar. I was with a networking friend. We grabbed a table and we received great service. I had a burger with salad and he had the Italian sandwich. We both enjoyed our food.

    Meat stick. Tzatziki. Crisp fries. Onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, feta.

    Really neat spot! Newly opened and seems to be running well. The meat stick 2000 was my favorite and the fries were really crisp. The pies were good, though I did wish for a little bit more crisp toward the middle. Flavor was spot on though. They serve a good amount of rotating draft beers and the bar seemed quite cozy. Dim lighting was nice for a rainy day. The restaurant has a great vibe. Since they're still new, I'm sure some shifts around the decor and such will be made, but I did notice a small stage on the large patio which I assume will be used soon for live music. Looking forward to it! Staff were all friendly and accommodating. Lots of parking since it's next to a Piggly wiggly. Will definitely be back to try the sandwiches and more appetizers soon! Also, I accidentally left pizza leftovers....hopefully some staff member got to eat some even though I know you shouldn't

    First time visit. Food was really good. We both had the cheesesteak and loaded fries. Friendly staff. Pretty cool place, does need more "garage" signs.

    Overall a good place to hang and grab finger food ! Plenty of seating in and outside with heaters if you are outside! Got seated and bartender/ server came and grab our order . Eventually it got pretty busy and we had to search for help. Seems like a small crew but I'm guessing it'll develop soon . Burger was good and love the buttery bun! The fries and corn puppies were not my favorite but my partner liked it! Chicken parm special was real good. Wish it was more options on the menu! Also try out their dirty sodas.

    Stumbled upon this place on a late Friday evening with a friend. I absolutely loved the garage vibe! The outdoor bar seating was very cool. The outdoor seating area was large with a stage and had heaters. The inside bar was also spacious with accessible restroom and a lounge area that was more private with tables. Televisions were indoors and outdoors. The staff were very friendly throughout our visit, very attentive in checking in with us. I ordered a non-alcoholic beer and the mini corn dogs, very delicious. Such a cool spot, would absolutely return when in the area.

    Absolutely loved it! Perfect blend of nostalgia and great food. Will be back as a regular. The burgers was so juicy and flavorful. The fries... cooked just right. They have that lightly fried potato texture that I love. Service was excellent and we had no wait. They do also offer a military discount which is nice.

    Stage area

    Decided to try one of Charlestons newest venues in Hanahan called Johnny's garage. The place is great with a great bar and a super nice patio area which is where I choose to eat. They have a large stage area there as well. The service was great and timely, and the food was brought to the table fast and piping hot. I loved their fries the best. They were light golden brown, crispy on the outside and tender inside the way quality fries should be. I highly recommend this place. I only gave it 4 stars because it was hard to distinguish which door you go into and didn't see handicap parking. But I will definitely be heading back soon. And I highly recommend the Parm dog and fries

    We came later at night, and were pleasantly surprised that they keep the kitchen open till 11pm. People were trickling in still for food & drinks. Not to busy though. I love the interior and the atmosphere this place could bring. The decor is really fun & my favorite part was the van seating, super comfy. Service was kind of all over the place though & was very focused on restocking. Milk shake was runny & we were a little disappointed at the menu options. Was really looking forward to some custom food options & cocktail mixes that matched the vibe. Wanting to try Johnny's Garage again but maybe after they get into the swing of things with a new place.

    Johnny's Garage is a retro neighborhood bar and restaurant. Restaurant is located in an old garage that has been converted into a bar-restaurant. kid and pet friendly The main restaurant is an open air covered patio. The bar seats are old car seats . Really cute concept. The have multiple Large screen tv fitted through the restaurant. Music playing in the background. Pets are welcomed inside. They have plenty of seating but was very busy on Friday night. They do have a stage inside the restaurant and have live music. The staff are very friendly and the restaurant is well staffed. In the bar area they have what they call the lounge which is a separate seating area for larger parties. The food was good. The fried Brussels sprouts were delicious. The chicken, bacon and ranch sandwich was tasty. Large portions. Did not leave hungry. The adult espresso milk shake was ok running not thick like a milkshake. The flavor was ok but not my favorite. Overall it was a pleasant experience. They do not have a large menu but the seems very popular. I would return and give Johnny's another go. If you are in the Hanahan area or driving through, I would suggest you give it a try.

    Station Burger Double Block. Two 4 ounce patties, lettuce, cheese, tomato. No Shop Sauce. Fries.
