When you can't find the truck...


Cheeseburger

I was actually debating whether or not to really review this place, since you can't really get in to The Garage Cafe unless you're working for Amazon, but I decided to anyways. So yes, there is a burger under that bun in the picture. The basket was pretty deep so it was hard to get a good picture.

Anyways, they just have a burger selection with various fixing and condiment selections. The default always comes with lettuce, tomatoes, and red onions. I got a burger with cheddar, you can add bacon for extra as well, didn't opt for that, as I'm not a huge bacon guy. The meat was really well done, they grill it fresh when you order it. It was cooked just right and beefy and juicy. The bun was kind of like a pre-toasted artisan roll thing, but it wasn't too crusty like a typical artisan roll, I liked it. The fixings were fresh, I like fresh. In terms of condiments, I opted for something the guy called "Kick-ass", which he explained was a togarashi-jalapeno aioli, as well as some tomato relish. I like the relish, didn't really taste the aioli.

The sides were typical bulk-ordered fried fries. Can't go wrong, but you're not going to get bonus points for them, plus you have to pay extra. If you can get in, it's something to think about from their selection.
