    The cherry sour beer is amazing! Crisp and refreshing. Atmosphere was very fun and unique set up. Great place to hang out or watch sports games. The brisket sandwich was too saucy with cheese otherwise it would have been great. The wings are delicious but caution with the spicy ones as they pack an afterthought punch. Overall will definitely come back and recommend.

    This was a very cool and unique restaurant. I loved the atmosphere, and all the older Ford cars and decor that surrounded the place. They had indoor and outdoor seating. A variety of craft beer (got my flight sampler) and the food menu was amazing with a lot of options too! I'd definitely recommend coming here with family or friends!

    Loved the vibe, food and drinks. They're very busy so it's better to place the order all at once. We'd asked for a ranch dip while working through the fries, but that never arrived. Nonetheless, I liked the place, especially the Ford themed ambience. Recommend.

    I really like it here! I visited for the first time on my birthday and the food was really good. Only thing is our burgers were a bit undercooked. Other than that I LOVE the scenery. The staff were very nice, a little absent with checking up on us. The sangria was sooooooooo good.

    Ford Garage is someplace everyone needs to visit! Guaranteed good time and a satisfied appetite! The nostalgia of the entire place will have you in a state of awe! Any Out-of-Towner's, this is a definite must go to! Staff is amazing! Food is excellent! Even the bathroom is the coolest thing! (Pictured: Clean & Green, their carefully crafted Veggie Burger with seasoned to perfection French fries and a seriously sumptuous Motor City Mojito.) I'm officially addicted! 😋

    Fun stop with all the historic decor, restored cars, comfortable patio, and fun atmosphere inside. Loved all the little details from the tire sink was gas nozzle in the bathroom to the shop towels and hose clamps on the silverware. Food was delicious with fun menu names, good portions, and great service too!

    This place was so unique and fun! We came in on a Satursay so there was about a 30 minute wait for a group of 3 which we didn't mind. The atmosphere was amazing. Everything is set up to be like a old car garage. They don't skimp on the details at all. Waitress was very attentive. We got our food pretty quickly even with how busy they were. My son got the kids fish dinner. My husband got the Sweet Heat Burger and I got the Brisket burnt ends melt and all of it was amazing!

    It's a fun dining experience! Upon arrival, you drive over a hose at the gas pumps, thus signaling your arrival. The food is good, but not great. There is a Model A hanging over the bar in the main dining area. Napkins are blue shop rags held closed with a hose clamp. Door handles are gas pump handles.. The Assembly Line is where food is prepared, and the "Rest Stop Ahead" sign is for the restrooms. In the restrooms, tires are used as the sink basins, and water comes out of the gas pump nozzle. Again .... it's a fun experience and a definite "must see!"

    Great place for auto lovers. A Restaurant close to the Henry Ford village. The restaurant has everything to be called a auto theme restaurant starting from door handles to fish names to rest rooms. I really enjoyed the food as well the ambience. Also there are some vintage cars at the entrance. Would love to go there again

    I've been to a lot of restaurants in my time, and this one goes high on the list of favorites. I didn't get the chance to take many photos (my apologies). We did have to wait a little bit to get in, but it was 100% worth it. The food was amazing, and all the cars and car parts made for a really great atmosphere! Would definitely go again. I recommend the burnt end brisket sandwich and the Ford's signature.

    There was about a 45 minute wait on our Saturday afternoon visit, but it was worth it. Our service was great (thank you, Brittany) and our food was good. Even as busy as this place was, everything came out on time. It is a family friendly place and the restaurant has a kids menu. My boys enjoyed their burgers and fries but were most impressed with the restroom features, LOL. We enjoyed our visit and will bring visitors here, for sure.

    Amazingly themed burger restaurant. Burgers and beers are decent as well. If you're a gear head or a classic car enthusiast you'll love this place. The burgers are quite filling and I could barely finish mine so don't get too ambitious with your order.

    Just in town for the day. Met family for a quick dinner and drinks. What a wonderful time! Tana was THE best, and completely made our trip. We have a favorite spot when we come back! We had the shrimp appetizer, fish and chips, and estate burger. Fantastic!

    Very enjoyable experience. Food was fantastic. From the shop uniforms to the napkin rings to the gas pump door handles to the tire restroom sinks. Food portions and quality are excellent. Staff was friendly but definitely rushed a few extra employees might help. Wait time for food and refills was a touch longer than desired but will be back!

    Atmosphere was fun and history rich pertaining to Detroit/ Henry Ford. The uniforms were an awesome throwback. The service and food were pleasant. I favored the French onion soup made with guinness and the bacon marmalade from the smoked brisket but end melt. I wasn't so crazy about the Firestone shrimp, just average. There was a variety of drafts and canned beer. They offer happy hour specials on drinks/beers. Apparently, they also have a Sunday special brunch!

    Excellent food and service! We had the fried pickles, Bison Burger with tater tots, and the Smoked Brisket with fries. Everything was delicious. The ranch for the fried pickles was a bit spicy. Staff were friendly and atmosphere was fun for the kids. My kids really enjoyed the mac n cheese too!

    Our party of six tried a number of menu items - the burger was excellent, salads were average, homemade salad dressings were outstanding (we tried three - the shrimp & Gorgonzola, the chop shop & the Cobb). Favorite appetizer was the famous Firestone shrimp - OMG - so good. Also everyone loved the Mac & cheese. One in our party said it was their best Mac and cheese ever. Service was slow and the place was packed at 5pm with a 30 minute wait. And this place does not take reservations. Time your trip accordingly. Cute atmosphere and fun touches, like the door handles made out of gas pumps & napkin rings made out of engine clamps. Fun for all.

    It's as though you have stepped back in time... The time of the pàst world of the Ford Motor Company with wondrous decor and attractions that you have to see to believe! They have a great menu and the food is delicious! From the appetizers to the burgers and other menu items, it is well worth it to visit Ford's Garage for a meal you'll never forget! A very clean restaurant with friendly, attentive staff. I can't wait to go back!

    Our first time and no regrets. This place was exceptional from the time we walked in to the time we left. There was never NOT something to look at. More importantly, my husband has the celiac disease mutation, so not even a crumb of gluten is acceptable. The staff was amazing in making sure that none of his food had been cross contaminated. The manager brought out his food and reassured him that it was indeed gluten free. Anyone with this disease knows how important that is and it truly meant a lot to us. There aren’t many places that care. We left the restaurant very please and my husband had no pain. ❤️ Thank you, Fords Garage!

    I went to Ford’s Garage with a group of my friends for the first time. To my surprise it was super packed, I was glad I had a reservation a week prior. As of the food, it was okay to me. My friends got burgers and they enjoyed them. As of me I got their Mac & Cheese and the French Onion soup. The mac was really good, however the soup was okay.. I didn’t like it much even though I heard a lot about it. The broth had an odd taste. Overall the experience was not so bad. The place looked nice so that was the highlight of the dinner. Would I go back? Most likely not but I would recommend it for family

    Why the Ford have I not known about this place? It was recommended after a great day at nearby Greenfield Village, so it was the perfect ending to a Ford-filled day! Love the creative car decor, from the door handles to the bathroom sinks! Our server Ally was excellent, quick to provide refills and check ins. The Estate Burger was awesome and we upgraded to onion rings… excellent. Generous portions, fair prices.

    The place has really cool decor from the minute you walk in. Overall, Great atmosphere and excellent customer service. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. It was our first time so they were happy to answer our questions and provide recommendations. The prices and quantities are very reasonable and the food is great. Will definitely be going back again!!

    Really cool restaurant with Ford Vibes. The Classic Cars just provide that Nice Touch ;) Food is great and Happy Hour is fom 4 pm to 6 pm with $2 off on All Beers on the Tap. Would come back again. Prices are fair compared to what you receive in exchange.

    I am honestly in awe over this restaurant. It was amazing, and the food was so good that I will definitely be back to try a lot more on the menu. I had the chicken Cobb salad, and my husband had a chicken breast marinated with sun-dried tomatoes and goat cheese, and he loved it. I highly recommend this restaurant

  • 5/5 Shannon M. 11 months ago on Google
    Definitely a place we need to visit more frequently! We had been once before, and it was amazing. It was just as amazing tonight. Food was perfect, the wait wasn't too bad (only about 30 minutes) and we were greeted by our server as soon as we were sat. Our table was in one of the bar sections and the server/bartender was on top of everything going on in that room. Will absolutely be going back and taking friends!

    Words don’t this experience justice! Look at the photos. Absolute best theming in metro Detroit. Great tasting food and super service. Staff is in mechanic outfits, napkins are shop rags, fuel pump door handles, car in the restaurant, car parts and tool boxes thought! Such a cool place to have a meal at! Must checkout!

  • 2/5 William S. 1 year ago on Google
    The place was interesting.  The decor was amazing. The drink was good.  It had a bold taste for an old fashion drink.   I liked the choice of cupware for it. The food was okay.   It had some great taste.  I was hungry so I did not see that it was over cooked until almost halfway through.   I ordered the burger as medium rare. As you can see from the picture, it was medium to done status.    I do not know if it was the chef or the bartender's fault. The service sucked. The bartender forgot about my drink order completely.  She even admitted it  when I ordered the food.   I was checked on once at the beginning  of eating the meal.  After that I was forgotten about.     I finished the drink about halfway through the meal and would have ordered another drink or different drink.    After I finished the food and had my credit card out,  I was asked if I wanted a second drink. It was a place that I wanted to try again because some of the other dishes looked interesting.   Between the service and overcooked food,   I will say I will pass.

    Nice burgers and even one with peanut butter 🙂 nice interior styling which includes also the burger buns - great for kids as the cars and details are nice to watch / great staff!

  • 4/5 Nadia B. 4 months ago on Google
    I never leave reviews but i have to.Went to dinner with my boyfriend, our server Ashley was a delight. Sweetest and so friendly. We ended up not being a huge fan of the pickles but she took them off the bill, everything else was great, wonderful customer service!

  • 5/5 Buck H. 2 years ago on Google
    Good food, great service. Very lively atmosphere really enjoyed the theme of the restaurant. And we ate here the night before Halloween so there was lots of people dressed up for Halloween to see also. I recommend checking it out if you're in the Dearborn area. You won't leave here hungry that's for sure. We'll be eating here in our future trips to Michigan.

  • 5/5 Bomber “Bomber” B. 7 months ago on Google
    Did not realize how close it is to the airport. Such an amazing environment. A choice of a Model T or Model A bar. Huge selection of craft beer and alcohol. The napkins are shop towels with hose clamps for napkin rings. Food is nice for “bar food”. Nice selection of apparel. But please add stickers! Staff was courteous and efficient. The bathrooms are amazing! Definitely worth a stop!

  • 5/5 Ken H. 2 years ago on Google
    Very cool Ford theme restaurant. The food is also very good with an extensive beer menu. A great place to take out of town guests.

  • 5/5 Jamie S. 2 years ago on Google
    We received very prompt & friendly service. We made our reservation conveniently online & our table (booth) was ready on time. The environment was very clean; Ford's Garage decoration was very neat to look at. Service was speedy and on point! Must give major props on the Buffalo Chicken Dip!! Just as good as mine homemade, without the work. Thanks, we'll be back
