There is nothing about either garlic or bread that renders either of them intrinsically non-kosher.
A delicious kosher garlic bread can be created if the usual laws are followed in its preparation, concerning
the utensils used, the separation from other various food items, etc.
Garlic is a plant and as such, is kosher unless it is mixed with something that isn't.
If purchased, it needs a sign of kosher supervision on the label. If made at home, it's kosher if prepared with kosher ingredients and vessels.
The thing that makes garlic bread problematic is that the traditional recipe uses butter and garlic powder before toasting, and the bread is a traditional side dish for things like steak. This violates one of the cardinal rules of Kosher cooking, that no dairy products are used as any part of a meal that includes meat products. The solution is quite simple: Make the garlic bread by sprinkling the parve (non-milk-based) bread with olive oil and garlic powder before toasting. The result is delicious and perfectly appropriate with a meat meal.
