I did try the Fresh Pacific Pale (but ended up not liking it, plus they were trying a fresh hop juice). Great beer for the most part. The staff was very easy to talk to and definitely see being friends in my life besides Yelp. I would highly recommend going their to check it out.

We visited Sid's garage for the first time in Boise, downtown. Excellent food, excellent atmosphere, and a big shout out to Veronica who took care of us. She was attentive, provided great service but not overbearing, and really made the feel of family at SIDS garage. The food here is super unique and really good... Not to mention the beer selection and drinks. This is a killer local place owned by local people... And we will definitely be coming back. Thanks Veronica! read more

Update: Sid himself replied with such candor, I can't help but respond. Perception is 99% of reality, Sid. The perception from a customer standpoint is the restaurant wasn't interested in our business, perhaps because of our small children. Calling customers liars and using foul language paints you, as a business owner, to be an absolute knob. The reality is I did not receive a text. Period. read more
