Food: seems to be mainly like a burger place. The ahi tuna was amazing. I actually got the meatloaf it was good as well. Not a place that I'm going out of my way for but it worth the visit Service: very good and prompt service. No issues there Ambiance: old cars and old time things around read more

It's like eating inside a Ford museum--and somehow it totally works. I never thought I'd be dining at a car-themed restaurant, but here we were--my husband and I on another lunch date--and I'm already looking forward to coming back to try more dishes. We both ordered burgers, and wow. Big, meaty, juicy, and seriously satisfying. The fries were just as good: crispy, not overly salty, and not greasy at all. Exactly how fries should be. Our waitress was incredibly sweet and attentive, making small conversation every time she checked on us. The drinks were also on point--the mimosa and bourbon mule were great, and they definitely do not skimp on the bourbon. The atmosphere is fun, casual, and very family-friendly, while still being a great spot for a date. The décor is a whole experience on its own--engines, Ford memorabilia, cars outside, and even a garage-style door that looks like it opens up during warmer months. You could probably walk around and admire the museum-like setup... though lingering too long might feel a little funny . Before you leave, check out the restrooms (trust me) and stop by the small gift shop near the entrance. Overall, it really does feel like dining inside a Ford museum--in the best way possible. read more

I drove from Louisville KY to dine here which makes no sense Lexington doesn't have two major Ford manufacturing facilities like we do but they get the restaurant dedicated to " Ford " probably good for me because I would be eating here way too much ! The burnt ends sandwich is Soo good the fries were well seasoned also. My wife tried the estate burger was more than you could eat wow what flavor. If the fun atmosphere of auto themed dining experience doesn't make it worth wild take time to visit the restroom unique to say the least. Just saying do the proper thing build one in Louisville ! read more

We decided to check out Ford's Garage and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. We arrived during happy hour and took full advantage of the menu, ordering several appetizers along with a burger and beer combo, plus a kids' meal. Every single item was delicious. What really stood out was the service. The kitchen manager, Colton, stopped by our table multiple times and was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. Our server Toni E. was just as attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. She was on top of every little detail and ensured we had the best time and that both of our children were happy throughout the visit. The atmosphere is lively, fun, and very family-friendly. We were celebrating a child's birthday, and the staff, especially Toni, went above and beyond letting both kids honk the horn on the car hanging from the ceiling (a huge hit!) and bringing out plenty of ice cream for the birthday celebration. Great food, amazing service, and a memorable experience for the whole family. We'll definitely be back. read more

My son and I tried this place out today. Service and food was top notch. I had the Bison BBQ Bacon Burger (very messy) and a side of Onion Rings. My son had the American Standard Burger and a side of Fries. A little pricey at $50ish for 2 people for lunch, with one soft drink. I would definitely come back. read more

Great service and food was very tasty. Very cool atmosphere and interior design was really cool as well!

Food was fantastic and the vibe was super cool, my only complaint was I ordered my burger medium, and it came out a little pinker than medium, but still had good flavor and was not bloody which is kind of a big deal... All the food was delicious and no complaints about service, our server was fantastic considering the place was packed... A little pricey for a burger joint but worth it! read more

My husband and I had visited a Ford's Garage in Orlando, Florida and really enjoyed it, so we were excited that they had opened a location in Lexington. If you enjoy old cars and fun decor, you will really enjoy the way they have decorated the restaurant, including antique cars outside and hanging over the bar, tires for bathroom sinks, and the piston they serve the onion ring appetizer on. I will say that when we visited they were quite busy, but we only had to wait about 15 minutes for a table. For a starter we both ordered the French onion soup. It was delicious! For our entrees my husband had the brisket burger with onion rings and I had the estate burger. He enjoyed his burger and said there was a good amount of brisket on it. As for the onion rings, there is a $5.99 mark up for the premium side, and he only received about 6 onion rings. We did not think that was a good value for the mark up price. My estate burger was tasty. I ordered it medium, but it was quite a bit pinker inside than I prefer. However, it was not worth complaining about, and I still enjoyed it. The fries were hot and a great compliment to the burger. Service was good, and they were quite busy, but there is some room for improvement. We requested a couple items (extra lemons and a new bottle of ketchup) that we did not receive. Not to worry, we still enjoyed the experience. This is a great new addition to the Fayette Mall area and we look forward to visiting again soon. read more

I went to Ford's Garage this afternoon and had a magnificent time. My wife and I arrived around 2:30 in the afternoon and we were immediately captivated by the antique Ford vehicles on the front sidewalk. The door handles to the restaurant are gas pump handles. This place has atmosphere galore. Our server was Angel and she was on point. Welcoming us, asking if we had been in before and making excellent suggestions regarding menu options. They have a superb selection of burgers, steaks, ribs, chicken and seafood entrees. They even have a tempting meatloaf and a hearty macaroni and cheese offering. My wife loves Monte Cristo sandwiches and they have a good one. You can download their app on your phone to earn rewards points and I received a free appetizer on my first visit- it was my birth month. The staff was extremely friendly and quick to offer assistance if we had any questions. If beer is your thing this place has more beers than you can imagine. On tap or otherwise they have the beer you have been looking for as well as a full bar. The only challenge I found was parking. They have a big lot but in the middle of the afternoon I had to drive around a bit to get a spot. They just opened a few weeks ago so that might be why it was so crowded that early. The prices were anywhere from $11 to $25 per entree and they had plenty of add on sides and appetizers that would increase your bill. I saw patrons of all ages and there are multiple televisions with sporting events to enjoy while having a great meal with friends and family. Check them out soon. read more

Ford Garage just opened near Fayette Mall. It's very chic vintage ford vehicle vibes. The inside is decorated so nicely and the bathrooms are extremely unique you have to make a stop in there when ya go. I had to get the fords burger and that thing was huge. Very good quality meat. My spouse ordered the brisket melt and he loved it. Very smooth bite. If you like cars and burgers this a spot to check out. They have a cool bar space too if you go solo or want to enjoy a view. read more

This is a great place for anyone who is car-obsessed, especially old Fords. The interior is really a shrine to Henry Ford, with engines on display and and tires used as sinks (really cool idea BTW). They are new, which was surprising to me, because the day I was there it was packed and everything seemed to be running smoothly (although I did have to wait a bit for my burger, I think it got lost in the shuffle somewhere, but that is ok) Ordered the Giant Funnel Tower of Piston Onion Rings (Served with House-Made Chipotle Ketchup and Hidden Valley Ranch). This thing is presented on an oil funnel? It is wild and definitely makes a statement, but the onion rings themselves are amazing - so crisp and delightful The Ford's Pickles (Crispy, Hand-Breaded Pickle Spears in a Panko Crust with Cucumber Wasabi Dipping Sauce) were 100% the winning item, so crisp they shattered, absolutely delicious and the sauce was bangin! Now I might be alone in this, but I think peanut butter and bacon on a burger is incredible and so decadent, so when i saw the Jiffy Burger (American Cheese, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Lettuce, and Creamy Peanut Butter on a Brioche Bun) on the menu I had to get it. Also the server went on and on so much about their burgers it seemed almost wrong to come all this way and not get it. However, the burger was just standard. It didnt wow me in any way, and that is with the peanut butter! Anyway, I dont get out to Lexington very often, but if I do come back again soon I would come here again to try other things, but definitely to get another order of those fried pickles! read more

Great atmosphere, garage doors were open and when someone drove past- t bell would ding like an old fashioned gas station. We had burgers with chips and tater tots. Both were delicious!! Chips had a lot of seasoning but I loved them. Our waiter was great. Attentive, fast and friendly. The manager checked on us to see if we needed anything- it was very genuine. The milk shakes looked delicious. We were too full to try one. The key lime pie is made in house. We will try it next time. No complaints! read more

This place is amazing !!! This makes the second visit to Fords garage for me and it doesn't disappoint. Tonight some of my girls and I decided to go for Valentines Day !

The food is always delicious here and I will definitely be returning soon read more

I love Ford's Garage and was thrilled when they opened one here in Lexington. My toddler was obsessed with the car on display at the bar and when the bartender noticed her staring at it, they hit the button to activate the noises and motion. They have a large kid's menu which is perfect for picky eaters. I ordered their green and clean burger and it was perfection. Our waitress could tell our child was in a mood because she was hungry and brought her food out almost immediately . She was very attentive even with the busy level at an all time high. The decoration of the restaurant is incredible and will keep kids entertained while you wait for your food. I can't wait to go back. read more

As these types of restaurants are often flawed, like most themed places. However, you are in for a wonderful surprise from the moment you walk into Ford's Garage at the Fayette Mall. You know you're in for an experience, not just a meal. The restaurant is a full-throttle immersion into a pristine 1920s service station, and every single detail has been meticulously crafted. As a car enthusiast and a food lover, this place is firing on all cylinders. Although I am a Chevy fan, this place is iconic and represents the brand well. This is, without a doubt, the restaurant's main attraction. The theme isn't just a few signs on the wall; it's a complete, immersive environment. The centerpiece of the entire restaurant is a stunning, fully restored vintage Ford Model A suspended over the main bar. It's a jaw-dropping focal point that sets the tone for everything else. The entire space is filled with authentic memorabilia. You'll see antique gas pumps, exposed brick walls covered in vintage Ford signs, and engine-themed fixtures. But it's the small details that really show their commitment to the theme: Your "napkin" is a blue mechanic's shop towel, neatly rolled and held together by an actual hose clamp. The bar itself is a beautiful, hand-hammered copper top, giving it a classic, Prohibition-era feel that blends perfectly with the industrial garage vibe. You must visit the restrooms, even if you don't need to use them. The sinks are brilliantly crafted from tires, and the faucet handles are gas pump nozzles. They didn't miss a single opportunity. It's clear this isn't a "kit" restaurant; it was assembled with genuine care. Often, a place with such amazing decor can let service slide. Not here. The staff at the Lexington location was fantastic, and they lean right into the theme, which makes it fun. Our server, dressed in a "Ford Mechanic" shirt, was more like a friendly pit boss than a waiter. She was incredibly attentive and engaging and had great recommendations from the (admittedly huge) craft beer list. Our drinks were never empty, and she checked on us at perfect intervals -- present, but not pushy. Everyone from the host who greeted us to the manager who stopped by seemed genuinely happy to be there. The service felt like a well-oiled machine, perfectly complementing the restaurant's theme. They were efficient, friendly, and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. I was genuinely impressed by the decor and service; the food absolutely holds its own. The menu is packed with high-end comfort food. The "Burgers of Fame" are the main event, and my "Model A" burger was perfectly cooked, juicy, and served on a brioche bun impressively branded with the Ford logo. We also split a "Piston Onion Ring Tower," and it was precisely the kind of delicious, shareable appetizer you want at a place like this. The place ranks high on the list of must-visit destinations. Ford's Garage in Lexington is a total package. It's a fantastic spot for a casual date or just grabbing a burger and beer. The decor is worth the visit alone, but the outstanding, friendly service is what will bring me back. It was a rare but easy 5-star recommendation. read more

Place is new, so it was packed on the weekend we first went. Left and went to Cheesecake Factory, which is always good. Hubby really wanted to eat at Fords so I told him best time to go would be on a Monday evening. No wait! Onion rings were good. I got a burger which was good, but nothing really special. Loved the seasoning on the fries and the BBQ sauce which was on hubby's burger. Gabi went above and beyond with service. read more

Round 2 went much better. We sat at the bar which was cool with the chilled countertop to keep drinks cool. I had the wings again, which are really great considering there are 2 other wing places close by, and the truffle fries which are really good. My wife had the estate burger which was really good also and her drink the America, I think, was really good. The bartender, Ty, was really great and attentive, we didn't wait for anything. No restaurant can be perfect every time so I can honestly say that Ford's garage is a really great place to grab a meal and look forward to coming back. Look into taller beers or a better discount on domestic though. $5.25 for a Miller Lite? Come on guys read more

First we loved the decor, old signs and emblems. They had a Model A over the bar. Wheels turning, smoke out the exhaust and the sound of the ahooga horn. Service was outstanding! Staff was very friendly. Never let our drinks get empty and always checking in. The food is fantastic. Our table had ribs, onion rings, meatloaf with mash potatoes and jalapeño cream corn. We also had the best chicken tenders and fries. The burgers are out of this world. So much flavor! You can't beat it! read more
