LIC Arrivals – The Burger Garage

We’re excited to report that a new burger joint called The Burger Garage officially opened in LIC as of Monday. Why the name you ask? Well…it’s actually a literal reference to the industrial garage that used to exist there not long ago.  The decor elements in the restaurant are highly reflective of this car garage motif – think vinyl, tires as wall fixtures, road signs and such. We dig the concept and can’t wait to check it out.

In terms of the cuisine, it’s your trusty burger, greasy spoon food but done in an intelligent way with Pat la Frieda burgers, hand selected produce from quality, organic suppliers such as Eli & Ali’s, hand crafted premium ice cream and more.  They even have a gluten-free menu (and gluten free burger and hot dog buns), which is pretty rare for a burger place.

We’ll share a full review in the near future, but in the meantime, we hope this whets your appetite.

The Burger Garage is currently open from Monday – Saturday 11:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. and is closed on Sunday.

The Burger Garage – 25-36 Jackson Avenue, Long Island City.  718.392.0424
