Some inspro

You have a small front yard. Do you really want to entertain on the street?

I would not feel comfortable in a seating arrangement right out at the street/sidewalk. But you do you. I would focus on this red circle spot for your seating, behind that mini-wall you already have. And there’s a good sized tree there to give you some shade.

IMO, you have way too many assorted shrubs. If you want to keep all your trees, I’d get rid of most everything else.

I think this would be good time to hire a landscape designer. Re the comment that is a ”small yard”, geographical obviously, , in my area it would be considered large, & yes, front patios are common in my neighborhood. I think much closer to the house though.

I'd still want some physical barrier between the street and your patio area. Maybe a low level wall would be a nice addition.

Looks like we're all thinking alike:

(Caveats: without dimensions, scale might be way off, and without location, plants might be impractical.)

Beautiful.

I think rather than turf I’d pick a pretty ground cover and some perennial bulbs for seasonal color in the front areas surrounding the entertainment zones.

You can downplay the garage by painting the door to match or coordinate a house or brick color.
