    Locos fries
    Aude O.

    Glad we found this place. Very much has its grunge/punk theme. Service was great. And they were consistent with traffic, which is a good thing. Se vice was wonderful. Burger was great. Fries were delish, so were the tempura green beans. Pretzels were mid. But overall well with a visit.

    Yummmmmmy!

    Amazing food! Great atmosphere and wonderful service! The bacon is to die for! Lol the shakes are definitely something you would have to try at least once! Only reason I say that is because there's a lot going on, but it was worth it!

    Truffle Parmesan Fries
    Sophie V.

    Switched from Canola Oil to Beef Tallow! That deserves a star all on its own!! It's not a relaxing atmosphere but it's not terribly loud either, it's a fun atmosphere for a smaller group. The hostess and our waitress were both great! Our kids enjoyed their Cheeseburgers and we all loved the Truffle Parmesan Fries with some Ranch. My husband had the Whiskey Bacon Burger and he said a solid 4.5/5 Stars. I had the Nashville Hot Chicken Salad and I'd give it 3.5/5 Stars, I wasn't starving so it did hit the spot. Thanks Sid's Garage! We will be back!

    The food was really good. We loved how some of the food came in weird containers, it adds fun to your meal. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly and attentive. We were so full from the appetizer and entree and didn't have room for a milkshake. But it gives us a reason to come back!! The milkshakes looked phenomenal.

    The food was really good and the servers were all very nice and welcoming. We had a great experience overall and everything tasted fresh and delicious. The only thing I would suggest is adding some background music because the restaurant felt a little quiet, but other than that everything was great. We'd definitely come back!

    Tempuraed green beans
    Dani S.

    I have been eye balling this joint for a hot minute! I have seen photos of thier over the top shakes and candied bacon. They have such a fun vibe so of course I wanted to celebrate my birthday here! Walking in, the music was loud! I love a chill vibe. I see my party sitting against the wall so I told the host in the front that I see my party. Our server did get drinks started for the others. He finally came back to check up on us. I got me a lemonade to sip on. Our last person showed up finally and we ordered dinner while she was looking over the menu. For dinner I got tempuraed green beans and candied bacon. The greens beans came in a shoe but they took the shoe away. My bacon was neatly hung and charred by a different server. I thought that was neat. The green beans were tasty! The batter did have good seasoning to it. I honestly wouldn't call the batter tempura. To me, tempura is light and airy. This batter was not. It had a thickness to it. Some of my friends didn't like the sauce that came with it but I enjoyed it! The bacon was very very very tasty! I love a great savory and sweet combo. I recommend the candied bacon for sure! For a fun joint, I am surprised they don't do anything for birthdays. My friend asked our server if they do ice cream or cake for birthdays and his response was "if you want to pay for it". Kinda tacky and such a great way to dampen the vibe. I served for many many years and I always made it a point to make the birthday person feel special. In today's case with my server, we didn't have the same ideals. If you're looking for a fun local joint to eat at that's loud and fun, Sid's is your joint. If you're looking to celebrate your special day than I probably would go somewhere else. I had such a fun time till my server made me feel like my birthday it wasn't important. I'm happy I got to try it out but I probably won't be back. I'd rather go somewhere where people feel special on their birthdays! Not just a tip at the end of their dining experience.

    Truffle fries w/parmesan

    Finally tried Sids. Date night with the man (aka husband). Super cute little place. Service was fast & friendly. I had the Mac & Cheese...super yummy and gooey from all the cheeses. Definitely fills you up. Husband got the Whiskey burger w/truffle fries. Man oh man the beef patty is huge. Was wanting to try one of their shakes but our tummies were stuffed to the max...next time for sure!!

    So I'm in Boise on a regular basis, and am always trying to make it to Sids Garage. Finally made it, and worth the wait. Extraordinary burger. The service was excellent! Will definitely return.

    Doughnut grilled cheese
    Cheri N.

    Very early dinner, popped in around 4:00 PM with no reservation while shopping in the village. Party of 4 seated immediately. This was my second time eating at Sid's garage. The last time was at the Downtown location. The ambience of the village location is a little bit more closed off and segmented than the Downtown location. Overall, the restaurant seems smaller. The best seating was up against the wall in the high booths. Unfortunately, they pushed one small round and a square tiny table together to make a table for four. It was awkward and right by the exit for the kitchen, but we made the best of it. As for the food - fun burgers that taste great is my overall review. You can't go wrong with any of the burgers. Keep in mind, though that the patties are very thick . It's a lot of meat . If you like In-N-Out burgers with those thin patties, these are quite the opposite . Our favorite was actually not a burger. It was the donut grilled cheese with a side of tomato basil soup. It was different and definitely had a sweet kick to the donut bread. Also honorable mention to the the Parmesan cheese fries and a huge shout out to their dipping sauce. We enjoyed that sauce on both our fries and our burgers. It has a little bit of a vinegar sweetness to it with pepper that makes it all their own. As for prices for our party of four, the total bill was about $70. You can't eat anywhere for four people for much less. For example, five guys would run you about $15 a person. Keep in mind our tab did not include alcohol, we each ordered an entrée and shared an order of fries. Two waters and two soft drinks rounded out our meals. Know if you added in one of their fabulous shakes, that's gonna send you back about 15 bucks but for a special occasion, it's well worth it. For an everyday sit down meal while you're shopping in the village or a casual special occasion I highly recommend treating yourself to Sid's garage.

    The French Onion Dip burger
    Judi B.

    Since it took a while for us to be acknowledged as we waited to be seated, it gave us time to take in the steam-punk and funky fun, loud environment. After we were seated by the kitchen, it took an extraordinary long time again to be acknowledged and served with drinks (the place wasn't too busy at the time at 11:30 am, Sunday morning), but after we were finally approached to start the process by our friendly server, things were paced quite nicely and steadily. The poor start to seating and service is what dropped this from a 5 to 4 rating. Burgers are whacky and different which makes Sid's unique. Many burgers come with candied bacon or interesting sauces, cheeses or flavor combinations you've never thought of. There are no combos here; if you want a side it's listed as an appetizer, so it will come out first, not with your burger (unless requested). I ordered the new burger, the French Onion Dip, which is a 1/2 Lb. Angus blend burger on a croissant, cheese and onion ring. It's rich and very different. I loved its richness, though would have appreciated some freshness like lettuce, tomato or something to cut down the richness a bit. However, I ordered French onion so I it's gluttonous as it should be. Hubby had the Steakhouse burger after complaining he couldn't find anything that appealed to him (he's very picky) without the onion marmalade. He rated his burger a 9 out of 10, so it had to be exceptional. Drinks are quickly refilled and the Loco Fries were absolute perfection...crispy, plentiful and heavily seasoned without tasting like it. The only downside is the the fry sauce didn't wow, but the fries don't really need anything to dip with because they are that good! There's a 2.5% up charge if you pay with card, just an FYI.

    Celiac friendly? like separate cooking area (fryers and cutting boards and everything)?

    Great question - we take Celiac very seriously… we do cook our burgers in a separate pan for Celiac… all others cooked on our flat-top.… 

    Is there a kids menu?

    Indeed there is - kids cheeseburger and chicken tenders.

Of course they had an extensive wine menu, but even though we were both underage there were many options for us. My girls strawberry lemonade was pretty tasty. We made a reservation, so we were seated pretty quickly. The folks were so nice, the ambiance was pretty chill, having dairy queen as a general date spot this was a wonderful treat for us both. We ordered an appetizer of cheese bread. I thought it was pretty good quality, a little high price, bur I expected that because it's a higher end restaurant. Our entree's took a bit of time, but it was to be expected the place wasn't empty. I think we waited somewhere between 15 to 30 minutes after we finished our bread. But when they came, it was worth the wait. I ordered a 14 oz new york strip. My family raises their own beef, so steak is nothing new to us. It was so good, I took a piece home to share with my family, and everyone agreed, it was fantastic. My girl had the rotisserie chicken, falling off the bone delicious, Colonel Sanders needs to step up his game. Another thing I can say, I find usually in high end restaurants I find myself still hungry afterwords, not here, I was completely satisfied with my meal. We ordered dessert, it was the vanilla bean something or other, don't eat fancy so I don't quite know these things. Here comes my only complaint, the sugar coating tasted a bit like burnt coffee, but was still delicious and we ate the whole thing. Before she brought it out, our server asked about the occasion. She took a picture of us with our dessert, which had writing in strawberry sauce, "happy anniversary". Like I said, we don't eat fancy often, especially because we feel unwelcome in many places with as young as we are (18 and 19), but this place made both me and my girl feel special, thank you land and ocean. I cut our faces out for privacy, she took a good picture don't worry about that.

The reason we went back the second time was because we remembered how good the food was and how nearby it was too. The second time the food was still really good, but the service was HORRENDOUS. Brittney was such a ***** to me and my parents, my mom especially. My mom was complimenting her and something about the food, and she straight up just walked away in the middle of my mom still talking. And no it wasn't busy. It was towards the end of the night, there was maybe 2-3 other customers there. She acted like we were bothering her the whole time. Then once she'd leave us would just stand up at the bar flirting with the other guy working there and just ignore anyone else. Then on top of all of that, my dad tells me she added $10 onto her tip! FRAUD!!! I've attached photos as evidence. My dad still tipped her even though she was so rude and disrespectful. But apparently that wasn't enough for her and added $10 onto the total. I cannot believe that. And my dad tells me it was difficult to get his $10 back after calling and talking to the manager. He didn't get the name of the manager but he said that they were just making excuses and saying oh but she's our best server. Obviously not! Saying things like oh she must've just been really busy. Again, we were there when it was dead and about to close soon, no it was not busy. It's almost as if this business does this type of thing often because there was no alarm from the manager, then finally after much deliberation decided to send back the $10. Absolutely ridiculous. No : "I'm so sorry here's a free meal on us", or atleast a "here's a coupon or gift card for next time you come in", nothing. This is the type of thing that gets people closed down. We should report to the BBB. This is insane. And to not be offered anything to make it right is what really gets me. Like do they not want us to ever come back??? Not to mention tell everyone we know, etc. Yikes! And this is what we get for wanting to support local businesses instead of going to the big chains. What a bummer.
