a restaurant fully themed around Ford Motors -- and they've done an incredible job with the details. From the Model T perched above the bar to the carefully designed automotive décor, the theme runs throughout the restaurant but never feels overdone or tacky. Of course, the highlight here is the burgers, and they did not disappoint. I ordered the Estate Burger, and it was absolutely delicious -- perfectly cooked, flavorful, and exactly what I was craving. The menu had plenty of options, and the fun, unique vibe made it a great experience overall. read more

24 February 26 Yeah , decided to grab a bite at Ford's Garage ( restaurant ). Sure the place was packed. A 30 minute wait ensued. Upon being notified that a table was available we were seated and given menus to peruse. Being as I wanted mom's meatloaf and my friends didn't know what to order , we all ordered Mom's meatloaf. This place was filled with customers with some hanging outside. It is so loud here that I think I won't be back until my hearing returns. We started off with a Tower of Onions , sauce on the side. Very good. The meatloaf arrived with our sides of mashed potatoes and sweet potato tots. Obviously, no room for dessert. The food was good. The ambiance loud. Prices not too bad. All in all we had a good time. Next time I'll bring earplugs. Snowbirds Uuffff read more

I love this place. There is garage parking close by. The food is always on point. They have a burnt ends sandwich. I have tried it once and liked it. I had my sister-in-law with us on this visit, and she ordered the burnt ends sandwich and stated it was the best sandwich she ever had. Hmm, it was good, but? For this visit, I ordered their "American Burger". Bet you guessed it had American chees,e right? To use a Pulp Fiction term, "It was a mighty fine burger". The server was handling too many tables, so our service was not the best. Is that her fault or the business's? There is just something about using the restroom and washing your hands with a sink with a tire around it and a gas nozzle as the water spout. The decor is very much like the name. Car-centric. How many places have a flat-head Ford 4-cylinder at its entrance? How many Yelpers would know the engine? read more

We don't frequent much in the West Coast, but personal matters had brought us up here for the better good. Getting hungry after a long days work, we decided drive by Ford's Garage and give them a try! Going in, the ambiance is sick as there's all sorts of old Ford Memorbilia from car drying towels, clamp folded napkins, model T on the bar ceiling, tire bowls, and more! Today we ordered for our meal(s) 1x french onion soup, 1x ahi tuna plate, and 1x bbq brisket burger. Going into my review; the food was AWESOME! The French onion soup could've been tad cheesier, but broth wasn't too salty and had just the right pack of carmalized onion flavor and sherry! The ahi tuna tasted fresh and savory; nice balance of sweet and tangy flavors from the slaw, ginger, and that soy dipping sauce! The star of the show to no one's surprise was the burger. The bbq brisket burger had that clean chuck taste; tender chunks of hickory brisket and crunchy onions/bacon to contrast! Moreover, service was friendly and attentive! Overall, for a burger franchise, this is place is special and we'd be definitely eager to come back to try the other combinations. My final verdict is 5/5 stars! read more

Their Bison Burger is perfectly done to my rare wants and so delicious and juicy. I was so excited to eat it I forgot to take the picture. I had their Bavarian pretzels for an appetizer and as always they are absolutely delicious. The one here in Fort Myers is my favorite one, the staff is always pleasant and the service is always great. Although the ambiance is definitely cute with the cars and the nozzles in the bathrooms it's totally cool and different. I've tried some of the other Fords Garages but like this one the best. read more

This a cool restaurant based on the Ford brand of cars. All of the employees are both helpful and friendly. From the time you enter to the time you leave everyone is all smiles. I love restaurant where the servers know the menu and can genuinely answer questions and offer suggestions. We had the nachos as an appetizer and although they were delicious we wished we had gotten the onion rings. The burgers are big and juicy and very filling. Highly recommend! read more

Super fun bar. The decor is on point with the theme. Ford cars with Firestone tires :) I ordered mashed potatoes, green beans, and tomato basil soup. Fiancé had ribs with broccoli and the house salad. Everything was excellent. Green beans were cooked perfectly, BBQ sauce had a good flavor. There's an ice strip at the bar to keep your drinks cold! So cool! My hibiscus lemonade was AMAZING. Justin was a great server. We'll be back. read more

This burger ruined all other burgers for me. Thanks a lot, Ford's. Man... was this ever a burger. Not one of those sad, greasy frisbees pretending to be food--no, this thing had flavor, like it was crafted by someone who's seen a cow in real life and knows what seasoning is. Cooked to order, fresh, and not just "hot meat from a grill," which is unfortunately the low bar a lot of places shoot for these days. The cheese? Not just melted--emotionally supportive. Like it showed up just to make the patty feel more confident. Beautiful. I went with the regular fries (solid, classic), but my wife went full gourmet with the truffle fries. And let me tell you--those things should be illegal. I'm not saying they're laced with anything, but if I start scratching my neck and whispering "you got any more of those fries?" you'll know why. I knew nothing about this place walking in, and now I feel like I need to write a thesis on its connection to Fort Myers history. My wife even bought a shirt--because apparently this is not just a burger joint, it's a lifestyle brand. We're officially Ford's people now. If we're within 50 miles of one, we're stopping. No questions asked. read more

Excellent burgers. Service is consistently above par. Lively atmosphere. Clean restaurant.

Updating and affirming my 6-year old review. My wife and I stopped in tonight for dinner, and found a seat at the bar as the outdoor area was full, and the indoor seating was also pretty packed. Bartender got our drink orders right away and we perused the menu. The menu is (obviously) updated since my last review, and was straighforward, and has a TON of options. Without realizing it, my wife ordered The Roadster (sans bun and cheese), which was what she got previously. Still tasty and nicely adorned with veggies. She went for the tasty green beans for her side. I got the Chicken Chop Salad. It was a nice chicken breast on top of a good mix of garbanzo beans and veggies. Tasty and reasonably healthy choice. Drinks were good and the frozen rail on the bar to keep things chilled is a nice touch. Food came out in a reasonable time and staff was efficient. All in all would definitely recommend - it does get very busy, especially on weekends, so be ready to be flexible and patient. read more

Yes I definitely recommend this place! They gave you a lot on your plate which I feel is unusual for Florida. The tater tots with a side of caramel for dipping was INSANE!!!!! The waiter was super friendly and always came back to check on the food and how we liked it. I got a grilled cheese sandwich w bacon but the white bread was enormous! The decorations of the ford trucks all over was a sight to see. This place I would recommend to parents w children and to those who just want a place to call your own and visit for a great drink too..nice huge bar too!!! Definitely try this place you won't be disappointed. read more

Great spot in downtown Fort Myers with very friendly service and delicious food. We were walk-ins on a Tuesday night and were able to get a table outside on the sidewalk right away. It was perfect for people-watching. We mentioned to our server that we were in a little bit of a rush to get to the theater, and since the highway traffic had been so bad we were running late. And she accommodated us by quickly putting in our food and drink order at the same time. I tried the Blackened Salmon Salad which was amazing. The fish was firm and so tasty...I loved it! The burgers coming out at the table next to us also looked so good, and I will have to get back to try one of those. read more

Nice place waitress wasn't very good. Ran out of refreshments while in the middle of eating food. That golden rule should never be broken!

We stopped here out of desperation for food and traveling in traffic from Sarasota. Honestly was a great blind pick and thank you all who reviewed this. Service was great. They had a mix of inside and outside dining. Lots of sports going on at all the TVs so it's pretty loud. Dress code is causal. We had bachelorettes to families rolling in. Food is consistent quality for the price. Got the bison burger and no regrets. Nothing was overcooked burger wise. Fries were fresh and the right amount of crispy. Chicken tenders were crispy and not soggy. If you're looking for an adult beverage they have a balanced selection of beers vs mixed drinks. Thanks Tee for the great service!! read more

This place is fantastic !!! Husband and I were together on a work trip here in ft myers and decided to grab a bite to eat before heading home. I searched up on yelp "best lunch in town" and this was probably the 3rd suggested restaurant on the list. It was packed, but luckily we were able to score two chairs at the bar. The bartender was kind, and attentive & fast. My husband got the American burger and I got the bison burger. I did hold the bbq sauce and put the chipotle on the side because I am not a huge fan of spicy. Boy!!! These burgers are so juicy & delicious. The chipotle was the perfect amount of spice and I ended up using it along with a side order of ranch. The cars and aesthetic of the restaurant is cool, hubby loved the moving wheels on the ford above the bar. 10/10 would definitely recommend this spot for a burger and cocktail that wont disappoint. read more

Like all of the Ford's Garage's the food was fabulous! The service was spot on and continues to be 2nd to none at every Ford's garage we have been to in both Michigan and Florida! The ambiance is fabulous and there is nothing negative about any of the twenty or more times we have had dinner or lunch at any of the Ford's Garage restaurants! Diane was our server outside on the patio and did a fabulous job indeed! BRAVO! Keep up the great work! read more

Ford's Garage - Ft. Myers, FL This two star rating was earned by KeiAnna. Great location with a trendy bar and grill vibe! The food was hot, fresh, and tasty. Juicy burgers, crisp bacon, good tots, my only food critique, I wish my fries would have cooked a minute longer. Unfortunately, our server KeiAnna is the worst server we've had in a long time. She got the drink order wrong, admonished us for switching chairs when delivering the food, ignored our request for silverware and napkins, we had to go find our own. With KeiAnna still MIA, we got up to find our own drink refills. KeiAnna eventually dropped off the check and pointed out the convenient tip selections printed at the bottom, (for me tips are earned by great service not the standard for taking my order and dropping off the check.) After fifteen minutes of waiting for her to collect payment, I went to the hostess for the third time in an hour and a half to ask where we check out. She was sweet, apologized for her coworker brought her manager back to me. Suddenly, KeiAnna appears out of the back runs to the hostess desk, interrupts the manager, Beth and says, well it was a shift change and I was brewing tea. On the bright side, there was the great atmosphere, good food, and cold drinks! Beth the manager was wonderful and the hostess was amazing! Y'all get 5 stars, the food 4 stars, atmosphere 4.5 stars, and KeiAnna zero stars. read more

Good afternoon. My spouse and I visited Fords Garage location @ Miromar outlets for lunch today. The restaurant was not very busy for a Sunday afternoon. Our server, Sam, was highly professional and clearly passionate about her job. I ordered the pulled pork tater tots, which were quite delicious. My wife had the mouthwatering half rack of ribs. I must also compliment the vintage Model T Ford cars displayed throughout the establishment. Even the men's restroom had a unique touch. Overall, I would rate our visit today as 10 out of 10 stars. We will definitely be back. read more

We always enjoyed Ford's Garage but lately not so much. We went to the Cape Coral location about 2 weeks or so ago. We had family from out to town and another couple at a one table. We called ahead for a reservation and when we arrived they told us a 20 minute wait. Ok, so why make a reservation. When sat at our table, it was cold, stuck between the front glass door and bar. Also there was water all over the floor from a leak they said couldn't be fixed from the bar area. Everyone's food was less than the quality we come to expect. My son who was grateful for the treat even grumbled. My shake was basically flavored milk, I asked for a replacement. They came back and told me they've had problems all night with the machine and it was now not working. They removed the charge from my bill. We did not let it define our evening. Now just today My wife and I got a hankering for a good burger while we were across the river in Fort Myers. We stopped in the Ford's Garage downtown. We signed in with the hostess and in 10 minutes we were at a table. Great!...But oh woe is me. We decided on fish and chips for her and a full rack of ribs for me, we would share and still have left overs for later. Our food came in a timely manner but oh lord, the ribs fell off the bone, but were so overcooked. The meat was dry and tasteless. Yes they looked good, and even had a little sauce on them. When the waitress came by and asked how everything was I politely let her know. She offered to replace them but I had eaten 4 ribs myself along with some of my wife's french fries. By that time everything was sitting like a rock in my stomach. I thanked her but said no thanks. My wife's fish was also dry and tough but she was even more hungry and did not complain. We definitely had left overs, but I wasn't gonna eat them. I have to admit the ice water with lemon was satisfactory. I realize it is season here (snow birds and tourists) and things get busy, but guys we really need to do better than this. I will probably go back but it will be months away. On the ride home we decided for the price and quality of food, not service (that was fine), we will cook at home until demand slows down and they fix what needs to be fixed, and spend time watching the pot before serving the food. And this is my long winded review. God bless everyone. read more

Loved the vibe and food. I was in Ft Myers and we walked up and down the street.. couldn't decide on a place. Ford had a little crowd but we went inside and got a corner spot at the bar. I ordered a burger ... one of the best I ever had and my friend ordered the waffles w chicken. Very cute decor, great service, and good food.. would recommend it! read more

Visited this place on my husband and I's baby moon vacation, so many cool things to look at inside and outside being a car/truck enthusiast! Service was great.

We waited 30 minutes for a table while multiple dirty, empty tables sat unused both inside and outside. Staff told us they were "waiting for a table to open," which didn't match what we were seeing. We were eventually seated inside (we had requested outside), then waited another 10 minutes without any server acknowledging us before deciding to leave. Busy or not, this level of service is unacceptable. read more

With people spilling out the door -- several happenings downtown Friday night -- I was glad we made reservations. We walked in and were ushered to our table, ahead of folks who were waiting and hadn't planned ahead. I chose the restaurant based on the proximity to where we were going, and our friend's preference for basic American fare. Everyone was pleased with their order -- particularly my husband who enjoyed his smoked brisket sandwich. My patty melt was fine. Nothing stand out about it, though to their credit the meat was cooked medium rare as requested. Fries, tater tots and onion rings were crisp, coleslaw was coleslaw .... no complaints. I don't know if it's just offered weekdays, but happy hour drinks were discounted $2. (A generous pour of wine, too!) Be sure to order before 6:00 p.m. With a room full of people, our server was on her toes, and pleasant. A personable manager came by to check on us. And if what the waitress told us is true, this is the original Ford's Garage in the chain. read more
