Great atmosphere and decent food offerings. The automobile/Ford-themed decor and fun food presentation genuinely makes it worth a visit! I highly recommend the cheese curds! The burgers are good (I like the estate burger, but the mushroom swiss is also good). The macaroni and cheese a bit on the thin or watery side for my liking. I'm a sucker for an old fashioned, and their smoky old fashioned is excellent. It was my brother's birthday, and they gave him free ice cream!

This is a definitely a unique eatery. The bathrooms are super cool. The memorabilia on the wall made it a very nostalgic place. The onion rings on the oil funnel we're really good. The sandwiches were hot and fresh fries were crispy. Overall pretty good experience. My only complaint was the chili that was super greasy, The waitress said it's normally not like that and they removed it from the menu for the night. I really wanted to try it.

Automotive themed restaurant in Detroit, Michigan, very close to the Henry Ford Museum. Went for 3:00 p.m. late lunch, not much of a crowd. Plenty of staff on hand. Menu is pretty diverse and lots of automotive puns involved. Puns aside, the food is really good. We ordered the Chipotle chicken sandwich, Roadster Burger and The Famous Firestone Shrimp. The Chipotle chicken sandwich was tasty, a grilled chicken breast with all the toppings. The Roadster Burger involves a juicy hamburger, patty cooked to your preference topped with brisket, barbecue sauce and onion straws. This one was probably my favorite. The Firestone shrimp are quite good, they're on the appetizer list and they are spicy so you'll want to share. We also ordered cheese curds from the appetizer menu but did not find them memorable. The cocktail menu features an Edison Mule, as far as Ginger mules go, this one is pretty good. A nice bite to it. Overall, this was a great place to eat. I will return on my next trip to Detroit.

Ford’s Garage is a fun filled restaurant! Not only is the food delicious (we had the smoke brisket melt sandwich), the service is great as well. There is plenty of space for families and plenty of options for people to choose from. There were so many things that sounded good!! Theres a full bar to choose from and so much stuff to look at inside!

The restaurant is very close to the ford museum so this is where we stopped before visiting. I really liked the atmosphere in the restaurant and the food is absolutely delicious. I ordered the model A with the beef cooked to medium rare, and I think that’s a great combination.

Food - the meat in their burgers was EXCELLENT! I highly recommend their estate burger! The truffle fries were worth it too! Service- Danny recommended that estate burger and kept our drinks filled without having to ask! Atmosphere- as you can see from the pictures, super cool!
