New High-Vibe Burger Concept in Town

by Mike Hunter

Hamburgers are, arguably, America’s favorite food. And not only can they be served in a variety of sizes, shapes and sandwich accoutrements, they can be found throughout Phoenix in a vast array of restaurant concepts build around creating their own unique vibe to enhance the culinary experience.

Sid’s Garage is the latest restaurant concept to shake things up on our burger scene. The comfort-food concept from Idaho is bringing its high-energy, full-throttle dining (and music) experience to Phoenix at Desert Ridge Marketplace this month. 

“Leave boring at the door” is not just a tag line but fully describes the experience at Sid’s Garage. The 3,269-square-foot space located next to the AMC Theatre in The District at Desert Ridge Marketplace will have an industrial/steampunk vibe that blasts the senses. To keep the party jamming, Sid’s will also have adult gaming, private dining and a large patio. 

Innovation is rampant, from shakes and cocktails to the Boss Hog Burger — made with a half-pound Wagyu/Black Angus Snake River Farm patty, 48-hour-roasted pork belly, onion rings and scratch Sriracha-Bourbon sauce — and Sid’s version of bacon and eggs, which includes four pieces candied bacon suspended above two flash-fried deviled eggs with a honey mustard dipping reduction.

The move to Phoenix was an easy choice for owners Will and Nicole Primavera, who share, “Our core beliefs revolve around supporting local in an area where community means so much. We have family who live in Phoenix, and it gave us the opportunity to see what a hot bed of culinary chops the Valley has.”
