Ironically, Garlic Brothers is a spectacular spot for a date, even though the kitchen is known to go heavy on the-you guessed it-garlic. Fun and lively, this restaurant sits right on the water's edge and boasts delicious garlicky pizzas, pastas, seafood and often has live entertainment. Contrary to popular belief, however, anything on the menu can be whipped up without the brother's favorite ingredient. Before you leave, roll up your sleeves and dig into Justy's Cake-vanilla ice cream on a cookie crust topped with toffee and glazed with caramel and chocolate. Pull up a seat on the patio and enjoy a beautiful Stockton sunset. Full bar. Open for lunch and dinner.

We ordered all appetizers, garlic fries, calamari, atomic balls, artichoke dip and chips, and THE CLAMS! 😋 The clams were our favorite hands down! Make sure to order garlic bread to go with your clams cause you'll want something to soak up that sauce!! 💣🔥 The atmosphere and view on the patio are priceless! Go have a bowl of clams and your favorite beverage, you won't regret it... 😙👌

Just hands down nice place to eat! Sit next to the wind near the evening, it beautiful! Service is awesome! Boating there is even great!
Loren Marple
Love this place. Setting is great, service has always been solid. Food is good not great, but don't take that wrong, it is good! Directly on the water. Great, relaxing place to dine or have cold beer. A lot of boats in and out makes for nice viewing. Definitely give it a try.

This was a boat rude away from our house. Trip was fun and we arrived with a place to dock our boat (which was lucky as we took the 2nd to last place). Great selection of beer and food which tastes great. Places to sit inside and outside. Staff was pleasant and responsive.
Manuel Cardenas
Something different with lots of flavor. Pastas,pizzas,chicken and a delicious grilled pork chop with a Thai chili sauce!! After we were seated it didn't take long for our food to arrive!! Everything was delicious!!!

Good food hood vibes will definitely be back to this place. when I'm in the area. The views are great if you sit outside. And not to mention the prices are great!
Adan Navarro
Atmosphere average between bar and restaurant. Food isn't the top of the line. Good enough. Good place to relax and enjoy family and/or friends. Best part for me is location. Hidden gem nearby.

So the bonuses are there's quite a bit of seating available by the water, both on an outdoor patio and indoor, as well as bar seating... I believe you can just pull up to the dock off of the delta. Servers are friendly, and the food is relatively quick. We didn't have drinks but they looked reasonable. There is something missing in each dish, it was a flavor palette that just got missed...... I might be being picky because I'm a serious foodie and Chief so... and it's not cheap going out.... We went on a Thursday afternoon, probably around 3:00 p.m., it wasn't very busy, I'd say about 10ish tables full... I felt like that meant the food came a little slow for what we ordered. But again beautiful location, friendly service, probably needs to pick it up on the flavor game.... I'll probably try you again to see how it all turns out

Location on point. Beautiful seating. Customer service was great and they were able to change our tables to a better view once it became available. The margarita pizza was good but was served on a plate and not a mesh so it became completely soggy. Garlic fries were really good.

First time here and was pleasantly surprised. Sat on the patio overlooking the marina. The grilled chicken was good though not spicy as it was described. The watermelon basil lime punch was very refreshing. My husband liked the crispy chicken sandwich and fries. We will definitely return.

Recommend either outdoor seating if weather permits its beautiful there by the waterfront and if to hot/cold definitely choose window seat..sets the ambiance for a ery nice meal..good size portions and very flavorful unique meals at reasonable prices...one of our favorite places to stop when we take the boat out on the delta..💕

Garlic Brothers has reunited me with my mother. It also turns out they were the ones who abducted her 26 long years ago, they were also the ones who left me orphaned, they took her away and left me in the cold. For 26 years, I wondered how my own mother could hate me so deeply that she could abandon me. For 26 years, my relationships were destroyed. Anyone who loved me, I pushed away out of fear of being abandoned eventually. I felt myself an insect; my insecurities, the spider that caught me in its web. Imagine my surprise, to walk in, and see my mother, still looking like she did in the photos before she left. Imagine my heartbreaking as I heard explain to me how the took her away, ripped me from her arms, and destroyed our family. And for what? Why did Garlic Brothers do this? I like their Garlic fries and Tuna Steak. Beautiful scenery.
Sam Root
Good food and a great location right on the wayer. You can pull up in your boat sit inside or out. Ambience is casual with a good vibe. Service was great. Definitely will revisit when back in town. Garlic fries, the pork belly were excellent.
Andie Shearsmith
Love the vibe in this restaurant. Open and airy with awesome deck for outside dining. Service was good and the food has garlic added to each dish. The pasta is great, individual pizzas are yummy and the tri tip salad is my favorite. You can actually watch the sunset while dining!!
Ching Ng
The food was okay, but the service was awesome. I have gone about 3 times now and services always been awesome. That's reason gave a 4 stars. As for the food they average, not much write home about. Oh, yeah the view is very nice.
Rod Wionowsky
$3 Spaghetti w/meatballs on Wed is money well spent. Grilled Oysters are more like Oyster steaks, the Italian Hero was unfortunately more garlic cloves than meat, and the Whiskey Slough is a delicious refreshing drink worth trying. Good service, but food quality seems to be inconsistent. August is a great time of year to have dinner on the outdoor deck as the sun sets in the west.
Tomas Mendoza
Wow! This place is great. Didn't know it was here. Beautiful setting, great food and excellent cocktails.
Shawnda Horne
Dope little spot on the Delta. The vibe is chill and the food is tasty. While the drinks left a little to be desired, I think that the scenery made it worth while. I felt budget-friendly fancy eating while overlooking the water!
Gregoria Ponce
Parking is a bit at a premium yet it is ADA friendly. Lunch is definitely a treat here. Outdoor seating next to the delta and marina serve as the scenic soothing backdrop to this little jewel. The food was hot, fresh and savory. My veggie burger and garlic fries were hot, flavorful and well presented. Arnold Palmer was cold and well mixed. The service is prompt and they made sure we had what we needed. Well off the street, the ambiance is classic laid back. Seating area and facilities were clean and organized.
J Platto
Excellent food, service, and scenery. Atomic Balls were a particular hit, crispy crust creamy inside and great kick. Good salads, kid friendly, quick and excellent service. A+
Sraineang Hang
Outdoor/Patio seating available, nice view of the docks. Grilled oysters were soo good, I would definitely order again. Garlic fries and calamari were pretty standard. Probably would skip the steamed clams. Service was great
Jolene
The fishbowl cocktail was good. I enjoyed that. The food was okay, they brought us our appetizer garlic fries at the end bc they forgot. It was a pretty small portion good thing we got two.
Denise Powell
From time to time we've had a not so good experience here. Whether its the service (usually) or the food. Today we invited some friends out who have never been. And everything was great!! Food was delicious! Service was outstanding! And the weather definitely cooperated! Outdoor seating with a beautiful view 😍 we will be back!
Thomas Watson
Fun spot for food and drinks. Don’t expect anything gourmet, but the staff are solid and fun. Good wood fired pizzas and they have crazy cheap weekday dinner specials. Nice marina views from their outdoor deck. Cocktails are cheap and strong! Beware of their Mai Tai!
Yunus Shaikh
Fine food, small portions. Somewhat dirty.
Bekah Burroughs
One of the better places to go eat in Stockton. It sits right on the Delta and has some nice views. They have a full bar with a fantastic menu that goes way beyond just grill or bar food. Their patio is great in the summer because the wind off the Delta keeps it a bit cooler than other areas.
Joel Demattei
Loved the atmosphere, literally watched the sun set behind the mountains which was awesome. We aren't usually too picky but the food was a little over charred for both our burger and my steak. Its a toss up whether we go back.
Manuel Contreras
A+ service
Sarah Griffin
My husband and I had a good meal here. We ordered clams to share and Ahi Tuna with garlic potatoes, with a small salad that was delicious. My husband ordered banana bread pudding with chocolate. I accidentally left my Fendi sunglasses and they were safely returned to me. Thanks, Tim.

Vet good food. Very friendly staff. My friends and I regularly visit this restaurant even through COVID and seating was moved outside on the deck overlooking the water. There's always classic oldies but goodies playing in the air. Look forward to being able to visit again soon.
Kamden Short
We met with friends at this place for lunch. my friend recommended this restaurant. Well, we were not disappointed. The crew welcomed us with a smile and we felt good. The meal was yummy. We loved this restaurant a lot and we will visit this place again. We recommend this place to all.
Reed Bisca
Best tri tip sandwich in town. Please comment this after you try it. Don't even get me started started the garlic bread.....on the waterfront, extremely peaceful. My other half and I love it! She loves all the lights on the inside as well. Nice little 7 top sports bar, and 10 tvs.
Anthony Tarin
Delicious food I had the calamari steak and it was fantastic. Had a fish bowl drink and believe me it work. Service was fantastic. If you have not gone definitely go.
Lori Stoudemire
Restaurant has nice ambiance, was very clean, and is on the water. The grilled players were perfect, juicy & flavorful. I ordered chicken penne with no salt (I get instant inflammation from too much salt) and it was iso delicious. And thanks to Cesar for great service. It was a little busy but definitely checked to make sure we were good. Garlic Crab is definitely on my list for food
Al L
Food was great as it usually is but the service was poor this time around. Our party of 4 after being seated had to wait for 15 minutes before our drink order was taken. We had to track someone down to get this done. The sunshade also needed to be but down because of the blinding sunlight near the windows facing the water. Hopefully the service gets better.
Robynne Rose-Haymer
Our food was hit-and-miss. Some steaks cooked well, others, overcooked. The pasta wasn't served with enough sauce and when we asked for more, that wasn't an option. Skip the fishbowl if you want a tasty drink, it's definitely more of as novelty than a good tasting beverage. Service was fantastic and, also oddly not (our waitstaff put the extra napkins IN our appetizer).
Jennifer Hoglund
Cool place! Right on the water and fun decor. Bar area is currently closed, but we sat inside. The fish bowl margaritas looked amazing. We had the duck and ahi nachos for apps. Both were amazing. Entrees were good. The dessert, Hunters ice cream cake, the boys said they wanted to be buried with it. 😁
Amber Bedford
Enjoyed sitting on the patio with the view of the water. Service was great! All employees were wearing masks. Meals are large and shareable. My husband and son split the "Chubby" pizza and still had 3 slices left. My daughter and I split the grilled salmon, served with spaghetti and fresh green beans. I ordered a dinner salad with their tasty house vinaigrette. Food was tasty and we enjoyed the whole experience. There is dining inside and out.
Tomorrow Larkins
The service was great. The Delta view is relaxing and they do have outdoor seating. We got full on the appetizers so I can't speak on the meals. Other people's food looked good. Not a fan of the Bloody Mary if you are like me and love the exotic one's this isn't the place for it.
Tyra Taylor- Stringer
Great view, great food good service. If you are looking for a real outdoor dining experience, not just a weird covid situation this is your spot. Plus it's a nice place to get out of the heat of Stockton.
Steve Ussery
First time here to eat!!! Such a nice place!! And we lucked out on the weather...not too hot and nice breeze from water. So nice seeing the boats come and go. The food was very good and service was good and friendly. We came for lunch. If you haven't tried it, I would say try it.
Fro Ditty
Great place to visit usually busy after-work and weekends. I was a little annoyed our server didn't really give us much attention. Looked like her tables were spread out all over the restaurant. Our food was not hot and bus boys got a good tip because they have me what I needed most of the time. It happens but food good, atmosphere was good and loud. TVs could be bigger if they are going to show sports. I wonder if live music has returned? I'll be back fa sure
James Aton
Great food! The ribs were SMACKIN'! Outstanding service! The scenery is colorfully bright and artistic. The water and boats outside make it even more enjoyable. The only negative thing is that there was a fly pestering about. Overall, awesome experience and we will be going back to try some of the other food on the menu.
Jess Too
Waitress was new so there is a learning curve. Food was good and hot. Service just needed more training to make it a 5 star. Seemed like it was disorganized and the gentleman cleaning tables was flawless and was even trying to help the waitress out.
Paul Maki
Garlic Brothers was great. Sat near the window and watched the sunset near the marina. Grilled oysters tasted perfect. Broccoli soup was good. Extensive wine selection and full bar. Garlic bread pastas and salads are recommended.
Michael “Bear” Perry
You love garlic? Then you must visit this place. The garlic artichoke dip was amazing!! I had the Cobb salad which was made of your typical ingredients,yet was still tasty! I will be honest, the ranch dressing here is... different. Just a heads up. Next time will be the garlic steak!!
Laura Gage
I love coming here with my family. The service is always exceptional and the staff are always energetic and attentive. The views are so beautiful, why I love going here. I got their hamburger with avocado, and my son love the tri-trip pasta and sauce! This is a must to go to!
