Ford's Garage Novi

We visited Ford's Garage in Novi late in the evening and really enjoyed the experience, though it did take some time to get our food. Making a reservation is definitely recommended to avoid waiting, as we walked in and had to give our names and wait to be called. This Ford auto-themed restaurant beautifully combines a love for cars with delicious cuisine. The decor is a car enthusiast's dream, from vintage memorabilia and sleek automotive art to car parts cleverly integrated into utensils, napkin rings, and even the restrooms, where the sinks are tires and the door handles are gas pumps. Dozens of little details, like radiator hose clamps holding napkins, make the theme fun without being tacky. Unfortunately, the service didn't quite match the atmosphere. Our waitress wasn't very attenti

A fun place full of interesting decor, it is basically a Ford Museum. The fun energetic filled restaurant has great food that is known for hamburgers but has many options. It does get busy so expect a wait if you go during peak hours. The Estate burger came recommended and was mentioned as the most popular burger. The first few bites were good but then the sweet onion relish but not good anymore. Side options can be a choice, the tater tots were delish.

If you are nostalgic and like the Ford Motor Company, this is a restaurant for you! This is a great place to grab a burger or salad and sit at the bar where they have a cold ice counter to keep your drinks crisp. With memorabilia on the walls, a car hanging from ceiling and a couple engines used as posts this restaurant is not short on atmosphere. I like the brisket sandwich and the burger bowl is also tasty. They have a wide selection on their Happy Hour menu and we always stop in for a bite when passing through Novi.

Had no idea what to expect before going here. Im glad we went around 4. Although we still had to wait for about 20 minutes. When we left around 6, the amount of people waiting was ridiculous! Our food was very good and the prices were reasonable. Now, for the atmosphere. Not my cup of tea. Many people like the crowded noises places. I, do not. It sends my anxiety through the roof. So everytime that horn on the Model-T or A (whatever it is in the middle of the place) would go off (every 15 minutes or so), I would nearly jump out of my skin. It was noisey enough that I could not hear our server. Bottom line, service and food were great but very loud and crowded. I will place a carry-order but I wont be dining in again. If you like loud and congested, this could be the place for you!

So good. Full bar. Drink specials with or without alcohol. Milkshakes. Phenomenal staff from hosts/ hostess to wait staff. Very cool Ford Motor Company icons, logos, decor.
