This place rocks! I mean Literally. We've never been here prior and really didn't know it even existed. The wife bought tickets to Leonoid and Friends. (Chicago tribute)It was a blast. Two hour concert, great comfortable seating in a small venue. Although I believe we were the youngest couple there, I was kinda nice to sit and watch a concert.They have a cool restaurant upstairs that we didn't try, but definitely plan on returning for another show and dinner.

Unique menu. Had a wagu hot dog with mac and beer cheese on a bun. It was very delicious.We were told it was a bit pricey but it was perfect. For our hot sandwiches with fries and tots was $15. No up charge for the fries/tots.It was a little weird strolling up to at 6:15 to a nearly empty place and being told they weren't taking walk ups because they had reservations all night. Luckily we could sit at the bar, and service was extremely quick that by the time reservations started arriving 45 minutes later we were nearly done. We weren't the only ones with the reservations surprise, which wasn't exactly helped by the fact that the hostess stand was almost always abandoned despite the fact several staff were hanging around the bar. But most were able to sit at the bar in the end. This place also hosts concerts in the basement but it's pretty dang large and opens up to above the main level.

I think I need to review both the restaurant and the venue.The restaurant is three stars, tops. I do love that the garage doors open when the weather is right. The restaurant is extraordinarily convenient for the shows downstairs.I ordered battered fish. I don't recall if it was a sandwich I ordered without the bread. It came with tartar sauce and I must have ordered a side of cauliflower. It looks good in the pic, but the flavor is unmemorable.Mark ordered the Sky Dog. The picture doesn't inspire, "Yum!". I do recall 'reordering' a non-alcoholic beer and getting a full-alcohol beverage instead. Maybe the waitress should have been paying closer attention.There are other restaurants in the area that work for pre-concert dinners. The venue itself is pretty cool. It's oddly shaped. I've seen performers struggle with which way to stand... a bit this way, a bit that way. It's an odd setup. That said, it's a small venue and the sound is great. Between the restaurant, which gets points for convenience, and the venue which gets points for intimacy, The Ludlow Garage is pretty good overall.

In town visiting from Cleveland, stopped in for a bite. Still thinking about the Garage Boy burger. Definitely recommend. Flavor is solid, and buttered bun how Culver's should be.

What a surprisingly unique restaurant and music venue. My wife and I came down for a concert before watching Yngwie Malmsteen's neoclassical shredding. The food was very good. Let me call out three elements of my spinach salad that were unique and awesome. 1) the cucumber was sliced thinly and at an angle versus the traditional flat thick piece you get. So classy cucumber. 2) they added a smoked chipotle powder to the boiled egg. This really made the salad more flavorful 3) the salmon was cooked.crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was just a fantastic salad. My wife had their in-house vegan veggie burger. VERY tasty. A bit crumbly probably due to the lack of egg, but it was worth scraping up every crumble on the plate. We had a couple Pilsners that were great to enjoy before the concert as well. The restaurant looks like a classic bar restaurant with an open air from that faces the sidewalk and street. A bit of a Euro vibe.Now the bigger surprise was the downstairs concert venue. It seats about 500 by my guess and the chairs are comfortable like a nice movie theater. You would never expect this looking at the modest street front facing of the restaurant. The stage is big enough for a four piece band as long as they don't move around a lot. This worked fine for Yngwie who we watched. Going to the Ludlow Garage for a show is like being invited to someone's secret lair. The bathrooms were quite nice as well.Ludlow Garage captured my interest by hosting Yngwie but won me over with the food and venue. I'll be back!

Unique restaurant with good food and the venue was awesome. The whole neighborhood is a cozy inviting area with ice cream shops bars and art studios- park with live music. We had great service and surprisingly tasty food from the "garage" the concert was like spending an evening with the band. Theater type seats and close view with good sound system BTW Morgan James was so incredible!!!! So much talent and soul. The whole band made the night magical- thank you!!

I am writing to express my disappointment regarding an incident that occurred at The Ludlow Garage today December 20, 2024, where my mother and I were racially profiled by Trina, the district manager. We attended a concert in September 2024 at the venue and attempted to place a food order with a server named Sam. Despite our efforts to get her attention, Sam continually walked past us. When we finally managed to speak with her, she apologized and offered to cover our meal on our next visit, instructing us to mention her name. As we reside in Dayton, Ohio, we returned to at The Ludlow Garage today, December 20, 2024, and informed our server about the previous incident. Although Sam was not present, the server assured us that she would take care of the issue. We placed our order, but upon reviewing the receipt, we noticed that the covered meal was still listed. We promptly brought this to the server's attention, reminding her of her earlier statement. The server advised us that they would retrieve their manager. The Manager then came to our table and said is there a problem with the check and stated that she was unable to cover our meals in Sam's absence. Without seeking our perspective as customers, she claimed that several individuals had been stating that Sam had covered their meals, and she could not permit this to continue.We allowed the manager to finish her conversation and then I intervened , expressing our dissatisfaction with her implication that we were being dishonest and had no involvement in the actions of others . She failed to introduce herself upon approaching our table , neglecting to inquire about our concerns and instead relying solely on the information provided by the server . As I attempted to explain our issue , she interrupted me , utilizing gestures and requesting evidence of Sam's statement regarding the complimentary meals , In what way is this statement untrue when we have knowledge of the girl's name and the phone's timestamp, which indicates September 19, 2024, at 10:30. Before cutting me off once more and stating that this was not their standard protocol and they give gift cards . I paused to inquire about the manager's name, as she had not taken the time to introduce herself when she arrived at our table. Her response was brief: "My name is Trina, what's the problem?" This seemed dismissive, particularly given that I had already provided context. I restated my concerns, but she continued to cut me off. I asked if I could have her district managers information and was informed that she was the district manager. Considering that the server had assured us the chicken wings would be taken care of, and we ultimately did not eat them I asked that they be removed from our bill. Trina rapidly took the to-go boxes off the table and loudly stated that it was fine. She continued speaking at us, failing to acknowledge our concerns. We felt the conversation was unsuccessful, primarily due to Trina's unprofessional behavior, her tendency to interrupt, and her accusations suggesting we were dishonest, which further implied that others had made similar statements about Sam replacing their orders. I asked Trina when Sam would be returning, and she informed me that Sam has Covid and is unsure when she will be back. Sharing Sam's illness may be a HIPAA violation, as we should not have been provided with this information. Rather than acknowledging customer concerns, Trina irresponsibly discarded the chicken wings, resulting in financial losses for the company. We perceive that we were racially profiled because we are Black Americans, and the way Trina spoke down to us was remarkably disrespectful and unacceptable. This will be our final visit to Ludlow Garage, as we were disappointed by the lack of customer service and the unprofessional behavior displayed by Trina. We've been loyal customers of this company for years and being treated like this is unacceptable and we will be taking action by contacting the company's owners.

Our first time at The Ludlow Garage. What a great, intimate, and comfortable venue! Four80East did not disappoint. The seats were great, and the service was awesome. We'll be back.
