    Thai Chicken Salad
    Alexa F.

    Burger was flavorful but pretty small, fries were a very small serving also. Thai chicken salad was big and delicious. Cool decoration.

    Smoked Brisket Burnt Ends Melt. Spectacular
    Daniel M.

    Stopped for a quick lunch bite by myself. Sat outside by the bar. Place was packed. I had the smoked brisket burnt ends melt. Gonna say this is one of the best tasting sandwiches I have ever had. Loved it. That's the only thing I had so that's that. The service was excellent and the place definitely has a great atmosphere. Can't wait to go back and try everything else on the menu. Enjoy

    Sat at bar for appetizers and then went to outside bar for a couple of drinks and watched the Celtics. Bar staff was very friendly and attentive.

    Ok. I like this place good food for sure. This was first time time to this location.. very well kept most staff seemed friendly . I will say prices are as expected.. Our particular waitress kept up with us and kind of attentive.checking on us and all that stuff wait staff usually so. but not the happiest or the most talkative person no small talk or anything like that. But other then that it was pleasant and would go back again. And did I mention it's location it's in the outlet mall. So had taken the opportunity to walk the mall after.

    Ford's Garage is a must-see for even the lightest car enthusiast. The interior decor is unique including the restrooms - which are also a must-see pit stop. The restaurant was a bit crowded mid-afternoon Sunday with a slow green flag at the hostess stand to seat us and the service was in a bit of a slow gear. Get revved up with the smoked Old Fashioned or appetizers of fried pickles and onion ring tower. Your tank will be fueled by the time your table finishes the delicious burger, fries, or Parmesan truffle fries.

    Happy Hour

    Amazing food and great experience! This was my first time bringing out-of-town guests from Canada, and it did not disappoint. The Giant Funnel Tower of Jumbo Piston Onion Rings is a must-try starter -- crispy, flavorful, and just plain fun. For mains, we ordered the Black & Bleu Burger, BBQ Brisket Burger, High Octane Burger, and the Blackened Salmon -- and every single dish was excellent. We were especially impressed that each burger was stamped with the Ford's Garage signature logo -- such a cool and unique touch that adds to the theme. Great flavors, generous portions, and perfectly cooked. Although there was a hiccup regarding the wrong order, it was promptly corrected. Definitely a place I'll come back to!

    Smoked Brisket Burnt Ends Melt and Sweet Potato Tots (the dipping sauce is very sweet with caramel base)
    Daniella B.

    Cool vibe with indoor or outside seating. Sat faster than expected and great service. Food was good - my burger was cooked perfectly medium (bun was ok), husband's ribs were overcooked but sauce was tasty. Daughter said her brisket melt and sweet Potato tots were really good. Drinks were pretty nice. Lots of families!

    Buffalo chicken sandwich (excellent), fish and chips (good, but a little greasy and less actual fish than other places)

    Do They have outdoor seating and are they pet friendly? I'm driving through with a pet, and I'm looking for someplace to stop.

    Yes to both. If you get on the waitlist be sure to specify outdoor

    Do they take reservations?

    Yes they do. I usually call I before going since they are at the outlets and it can get busy real quick.

    This wad the first time trying Bistro 41. It was delicious! ...and expensive. We started with wine…read moreand I had a Willy Wonkatini (chocolate martini) .. it was really good! (kinda on the smaller side) i did end up getting a second one ($15 each). For apps we got the tuna cervichi and flatbread. (I do not eat raw tuna, so I have no option on that dish. But the rest of the table ate it up) The flat bread was great too. It had black olives, figs, tomatoes and lots of cheese. For dinner we each ordered something different. I got the crab cake stuffed Salmon with seasoned spinach and mashed topped with, what i think the waitress said was lobster sauce.. altho my friend that got the seafood risotto was supposed to have the same sauce on top but hers was a much more red color. The risotto was another great dish. It had scallops, big shrimps and muscles in it. Cooked perfectly. My friend had the Sicilian Penne. He said: It was a delicious pasta dish with sausage and cannellini beans. The Gorgonzola cheese was an amazing addition that really took the dish to the next level. Our server Sydney was great. She let us know they were short staffed some wait ataff and she may have been backed up (there was probably 6 tables in there at the time idk.. where I waitress i have a 12 table station, and its fast paced..) but she still a great job. The restaurant its self love nice after the renovations, but inqoukdnhave never known it was a finer dining place rather then a typical breakfast diner from the outside of it. Ill be back! There were other things on the menu I'd like to try. (Please, dont mind the photos, we were all just so excited to dig in i didn't remember to take pics till we were 1/4 of the way into eating)

    Food was served hot and it was delicious. Portions were generous. Prices were fair…read more Service was terrific Can't wait to go back

Having that vibe just made the experience that much better! the place was packed! The tables are pretty close together, so a lot of people can be seated inside at once but they also have outdoor seating too You don't have just one server, all of the servers take care of you, which is really nice so whenever you need something, it's easy to get a hold of someone as well as being checked on to make sure you have everything that you need I don't know if this is allowed, but the workers were drinking in the kitchen area, which is open so you can see everything going on. I personally don't have a problem with it, but would hope that they don't get too intoxicated while cooking food. Overall, the environment was super fun and would definitely eat here again if we visited the area

Really enjoy the outdoor dining- I mean it's Florida! Can't wait to see the new patio upgrades coming soon!!! Taste local!!!
