Ford's Garage Estero

Our experience at Ford’s Garage was top-notch. We’d been shopping at the mall and needed some lunch. A quick look online showed Ford’s had a 4.5-star review average with nearly 6,000 reviews. So we tried it and genuinely liked it. The staff were all friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent. (My spouse and I both ordered from a separately printed menu that may have been either new or a specials menu - I had the southwest chicken dish, and he had the salmon.) Lastly, I’m a huge fan of creative theming, and Ford’s definitely didn’t disappoint there - the classic vehicle in the center of the restaurant, the gas pump handles as door handles, the napkins that resembled machine shop cloths, and even tire-rimmed sinks in the bathroom! Highest marks to the creative team that design

Ford’s Garage Estero, Miromar Mall. Went for dinner week day. Cold evening, indoor table were all occupied. Ate outdoors with a portable propane heater providing some relief. Server was pleasant and polite. Large menu. Basically fast food. Food quality is not the strong point. Most of these items are heated and served. Our dishes particularly the meatloaf was not at all appetizing. There are better choices nearby.

A pit stop worthy of a seasoned traveler this place is. Ford’s Garage delivers strong retro vibes with a fun, automotive-themed atmosphere that immediately sets the tone. The classic car suspended over the bar, vintage décor, and glowing taps make it feel less like a restaurant and more like a well-tuned hangar for hungry pilots and thirsty travelers alike. The Black-N-Bleu burger arrived cooked just right—juicy, flavorful, and balanced nicely with the bleu cheese and bacon. The Ford’s pickles were surprisingly delicious, crisp and tangy, and they come paired with a wasabi sauce that adds a bold, flavorful kick. If wasabi isn’t your jam, asking for ranch would be a wise alternate path. Paired with a side of onion rings, this was comfort food done right. Service was friendly and efficien

Great atmosphere. Very well done theming - and solid food. The tire sinks and gasoline handles on the door are all nice touches. The menu is great, but definitely on the heavier side! I had the Beef Brisket burger + fries and it was solid, but I needed a long walk after to heal my digestive system! The onion ring appetizer was so good!

Amazing job by our waitress, Skiela. She mentioned it was her first week, you would not have known. Burgers were excellent, kids got the chicken tenders and those were excellent too! One of our best dining experiences in Ft Myers!
