estate burger comes with Smoked Gouda Cheese, Sweet Red Onion Marmalade, Arugula, Tomato, Crispy Onion Straws, and White Truffle Bacon Aioli on a Brioche Bun. I had mine without tomato which made it less watery. It was very good too. Sweet burger and the crispy onion straws added an additional crunch. Loved the fact that the hostess told us that a 20% tip is already included and it's not added secretly. You MUST check out the bathroom. The men's bathroom was very unique and fun.

fast. The brisket was smoky, tender, and packed with flavor. The onions and BBQ sauce were a perfect mix keeping everything juicy without overpowering the meat. Our hostess and server Kiana were great and immediately welcomed my service dog, Renn, which always stands out to me. There is plenty of room for multiple service dogs, families, or a large group of veterans and first responders looking for a solid meal and a place to relax. Parking was a breeze with multiple levels of free covered parking. Once again military and first responders get a salute to service discount. If you enjoy smokehouse food, classic cars, football, and a military-friendly atmosphere, this place is absolutely worth the stop.

Ford vehicle themed burger and beer place. Tons of beers to choose from. Onion rings were good but the dipping sauces were on the weak side. They needed more flavor to them. We also tried their brisket burger and their estate burger. The brisket burger comes with a harp Cheddar, Bourbon BBQ Sauce, Hickory Smoked Brisket, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Red Onion, and Crispy Onion Straws on a Brioche Bun. Tasty but they should maybe look into a more robust bread. The estate burger comes with Smoked Gouda Cheese, Sweet Red Onion Marmalade, Arugula, Tomato, Crispy Onion Straws, and White Truffle Bacon Aioli on a Brioche Bun. I had mine without tomato which made it less watery. It was very good too. Sweet burger and the crispy onion straws added an additional crunch.

Good drink specials. Didnt have food. Server was kind and informative of the area. Calm atmosphere. Tvs to watch the game. Plenty of space. They are known for their burgers and dinner meals.

Sherry T.

Service was superb! If you're in the mood for burgers, this is your place. It's divey and fun and the decor is super cute!! The bathroom sinks are car tires and the handles to the front of house and bathroom are gas tank handles. Such a fun spot! (The A/C was turned up quite a bit though so we were freezing!).

Amanda H.

Highly recommend the ribs here! The meat is fall off the bone tender and the house sauce is delicious!!! Fiancé loved his burger and we both really liked the Firestone Shrimp! First visit, we waited at least 15 min for the bartender to acknowledge us. Second time at the bar was a little better, but we seem to have the best service when seated at a table. Breanna gave excellent service! There's ample indoor seating and patio seating as well. The garage / Ford memorabilia theme is fun and it's good spot for families or date nights.

Manuel B.

Once again we had a great time and experience at Ford's Garage. We were sat down very quickly and waiter came right over to take our drink and appetizer order. He was very nice and accommodating since our party of 6 requested separate checks and special requests from some in our group. Everything came out as ordered with no issues.

Booked a 60 person Teacher Appreciation Week social at Ford's Garage and could not have been happier with the experience. Javier, the manager, was exceptional from start to finish. Since I had only worked with their corporate office via email beforehand, I honestly wasn't sure what to expect walking in with a group this large, especially a hungry and thirsty group of teachers on a Friday afternoon at the end of the school year but they handled us SO well. The food online looked like typical bar food, but the FLAVORS were exceptional. I was genuinely amazed. I wish I had gotten more pictures, but I was so busy trying to mingle and host. My personal favorite was the Firecracker Shrimp. The ribs and wings were awesome, the fries were great, and even the chicken tenders had really good seasoning. I'm allergic to dairy, but everyone around me was raving about the mac & cheese too. The pretzels were also so yummy. The bartenders and staff were fantastic, especially Alexia and Chloe. It was an especially hot day, so a lot of our faculty members were ordering frozen drinks, which I know can be time consuming for bartenders, but we honestly never waited long. I had the hibiscus lemonade and loved it, and my friend's Old Fashioned was especially good too. The space itself is spacious, inviting, and worked perfectly for a large group event. I love my team dearly, but they are an intense bunch and Ford's Garage handled the chaos with kindness, patience, and professionalism. We will absolutely be back.

Angela B.

This is such a cool concept!! With such an extensive menu, there will be something for everyone. I failed to take pictures of the food. But from the pretzels to the burger to the chicken bowl to the chicken wings--you can't go wrong! The service was on the slower side. It took a while to be greeted by our server. But then thereafter, the service was good. Sit outside on a nice evening and enjoy listening to the live music that you can hear around the corner.

This is our second time coming here. The 1st was when they first opened around 2 years ago. We didn't have much luck on either occasion. The food was ok. But, once again, we had ordered items that were out and had to re-order again. Both times the entrees arrived at drastically different times. I'm guessing it's due to an original ordered item being out. The presentation for the onion rings was creative and worth the price. The servers on both occasions were not very knowledgeable of items on the menu. 20% gratuity is added to the check automatically. If it wasn't written in small print, we wouldn't have known. The vintage cars inside and outside the restaurant added a 1920's flare. Bonus: 10% military discount year round.

Great people, great friends, and the heartbeat of America ! Ford's Meatloaf lol

Michael O.

Food was ok ! Beer selection and car ambiance was phenomenal! Kiana took it to a ten star level ! Again the my meatloaf was only a 3 ! Just a plain ehh ! Key lime pie was great, homemade and worth eating ! I repeat Kiana and the car theme were the stars here !!

Ford's Garage has gravy as one of the sauces! I was extremely happy! Anyways, I came for happy hour, which is from 4 to 6. The interior is nice, spacious and the food is great! They have a Happy Hour drink and food menu. I got the Burger and Beer Happy hour special. I ordered cheese and gravy for my fries. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly! I parked in the garage and walking to Ford's Garage, I saw outside parking lot facing University Drive. This is a great, low-key spot!

Jennifer N.

Came in with my husband for their awesome Happy Hour! We had an order of their loaded tater tots which were the perfect size for snacking and were super good! I really enjoyed their lemon drop martini which, I think is like $7 or $8 on the happy hour menu. Husband had a Guinness. The place is clean and the bartenders are friendly. I love the bar top with the ice around it to keep your drinks cold. We agreed that we will definitely be back!

Nathan D.

Def not bad just didn't blow my mind.. id say strong 3.5.. I didn't wanna give it a 3 because I felt that was too low. Ordered the baby back ribs and slaw.. slaw was good in flavor just a little too wet. Ribs were fall off the bone but more sweet than savory and I tend to lean on the savory side when it come to the way I like my ribs.

Jordan M.

Oh Fords Garage where have you been?! This restaurant was lively, full of people, very thoughtfully decorated and overall a great experience. It was full inside when we got there but thankfully they had plenty of outdoor seating so we got to sit right away. Our server was friendly and I ordered the Model A burger that made this burger lover very happy! The bacon, fried egg, onions, and cheese on that very nice bun bridged the gap between food that tastes awesome and looks amazing. Capped off the night with a key lime pie which was surprisingly good. Definitely one of the better key lime pies I've had at any restaurant. Only downside to this place is upon entry, I was told of a mandatory 20% fee( also known as a mandatory tip). I am personally against this as a business model (especially with a small party) because I believe tips are to be earned not forced. It's to be worked for not default. My server was friendly but also not around as much. Made me feel like the tip was covered so why work hard to earn it? It also made me less likely to give more of a tip since I was forced to an initial %. Not a huge deal but just wasn't a good first impression. Not a fan of forced tip business models. All in all I had a great time, great food and would consider coming back here if I'm in the area again.

We had a GREAT dinner served by the incredibly sweet and attentive, Anna! The entire staff was involved in making sure we had a relaxing and enjoyable dinner. The ambiance is fun. The car theme is cleverly carried out throughout the restaurant - from an actual car outside to oil rag napkins and (gasket?) napkin rings... very cool! The food was terrific. Everything was cooked well and served timely. My husband said it was the BEST buffalo chicken sandwich he's ever had! Pretzels appetizer, fish and chips and salmon - all winners! Thanks for a great night, Anna! read more

We visited this location for my birthday and had a mediocre experience. Fords is a chain restaurant experience, but what is different, is they add an automatic service fee regardless of the service you get. Our server had the entire back corner, including three large parties. He never visited us until the end. We had to get our own beverage refills. Definitely not deserving of 20%. The Plantation location hits every check with a location service fee. There's no extra benefit included. No view and no extras. So many guests don't even know it's there. This restaurant is just a chain. The food is mediocre and prices are high. We are going to select one of the many other choices available in the future. read more

The Mack House

Mack House is one of those tiny local spots where the charm comes from the people, not the polish…read more It's small, relaxed, and run by one guy who's doing everything at once pouring beers, chatting with guests, keeping the place moving. I asked for a sample of a dark beer and he handed me a full pint glass, then used the same glass for the actual pour. A little odd, a little funny, but somehow it fits the vibe here. It's not corporate, not scripted just a real local bar doing things their own way. The energy easy, and the beer solid. If you're looking for a polished taproom, this isn't it. But if you want a laid back spot with character and no pretense, Mack House has its own charm.

MICRO BREW OR DIVE BAR?…read more My wife's long blonde mane stood out in this boy's only pub. Took a center seat at the bar while watching the Miami Dolphin game. Nice in house brewed beers on tap but sadly no sours. The bartender poured an ice cold fifteen ounce Johnny's Brewtah Hazy 7.2% which was absolutely devine. Love the kegs lined against the wall with big bags of Malt piled up. Trivia On Tap every Monday at 730pm and free entry with beer purchase. Thirty-two ounce Growlers are offered for all nine craft beers at $15.00 each. The men's bathroom was the epitome of a dive bar and I took in every wonderful visual which my video will confirm.

Sidecar Speakeasy

I'm visiting the Foodie & Cocktail BFF and we're looking for a post dinner place in Fr. Lauderdale…read morewhere we can catch up over some cocktails on a weekday night. Sidecar Speakeasy was the play... The speakeasy entrance was hidden in a hallway you can walk right by without even noticing. I dig it. Once inside, it's dark. Most of the light is coming from the light showcasing the bottles in the bar. The seating is a little tight as they're trying to maximize space for such a small area. We visited here twice during my visit: We sat at a table and a bar. You have the perfect amount of space for your party, but you're pretty close to the next table or bar seat. No claustrophobic vibes though. All the mixologists were great during both visits. One visit, we ordered their signature cocktails from the menu. When we sat at the bar, we had the mixologist surprise with a cocktail off the menu. He just asked what kind of liquor vibe we wanted, and he took it from there. He was super creative with every cocktail which made for a great time. They stayed upon until midnight one one visit and until 1 am on the other one. Both my visits were on a weekday. The sidecar speakeasy is easily my favorite bar in Fort Lauderdale and I have a feeling I'll be back. Enjoy!

There are leather couches, bookshelves, velvet drapes, and cute light fixtures. The menu has a huge selection of shareables, salads, burgers, sandwiches, and full entrees. The menu items also have cute mob and prohibition-era names like "Untouchables Sliders," "Enforcers'Philly," "Bombshell Chicken," and "Zelda's," and "Capone's" salads. I have come for lunch, for dinner, and after dinner drinks; with just my mom, a few friends, and even a group of 14 ladies celebrating a birthday. The service has a little been slow at times, but the food has always been good and all the servers we've experienced have been friendly. I have especially enjoyed the Bombshell Chicken Sandwich and Hideway's Grilled Cheese. (They have several different grilled cheese options and they are all on sourdough bread either an accompanying cup of tomato soup.) The prices are reasonable and they have a full bar and live entertainment some evenings. Hideaway's is a unique experience; and a fun place to gather. It's easy to get to from anywhere in Plantation and there's lots of free parking. I'm hoping that Hideaways is here to stay!

From all the bars I have ever been to (and that too many to recall) this is the only place where something new awaits you every time. The words "same old" does not exist here. Whom will you meet, what adventure you will experience with be different every time. Unfortunately, thus ambience only exists during the weekend. Maybe kate Thursday night and Sunday night. The rest of the week it is pretty quiet. But if you want a late-night adventure, there is no place like the J Bar. Come and become a part of this spontaneous madness.

Always solid, and for sure a top spot to hit after work.
