Marc and team at the garlic rose are just the best!! They gave my kids little Christmas bears tonight, everything was delicious (as usu) and when our coffee took longer than expected, he gave them to us on the house (even tho we told him it was totally unnecessary!) We don’t live super close but whenever we visit we always say it’s worth the trip!

Excellent food provided by friendly servers in a warm, cozy atmosphere is where you want to go for a great dinner. The roasted garlic bulb is heaven on top of their delicious bread. Order one of their soups like french onion garlic or langostino bisque for a great start. Our entrees were garlic shrimp over saffron rice and garlic shrimp alfredo over fettucine...delicious! We ended with the lemon tartlette for dessert...very tasty. Oh yes...don't forget to order their sangria. It's perfect!!

Last night, my experience at the Garlic Rose Bistro was exceptional, however, one of the people in our party wasn’t feeling well due to a pre-existing issue and we needed to leave before our meals were prepared. The owner, Marc, came to our table and assisted in helping my family as much as possible. He went above and behind helping us and then packed up our dinners so we can exited and care for our family member. I can’t thank Marc and his team enough for everything they did for us. Also, the food was excellent and we will definitely be going back. Thank you so much Marc for everything!
