Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests absolutely loved the food! What made it even more special was the kindness and friendliness of the entire staff. They made us and our guests feel so welcome and taken care of, handling everything with such warmth and professionalism. I want to give a special thank you to Karen who was so accommodating and helpful throughout the planning process. Being able to celebrate right at the restaurant created the perfect atmosphere. We were able to relax in an intimate setting and truly enjoy our guest and wedding. Tinker truly went above and beyond to make our day stress-free and unforgettable.

“Ford's garage fries, crispy yet soft on the inside. Flaky and peppery with a perfect balance of salt to compliment it. Hard to get on point fries, however these people accomplished it. The burger is larger than you would expect from a visual standpoint. It has fresh ingredients. I had the bison instead of the standard beef. It's freshly ground instead of ground beef. So as opposed to the patties being frozen coming in it's slabs of meat that they grind and then cook. The medium well option that I went with I recommend highly. They seared it on the outside and cooked at medium on the inside. The char has good flavor to it and the barbecue sauce has a very nice marriage with the cheddar cheese and the applewood smoked bacon. The romaine lettuce adds a nice touch on the bottom of the burger instead of the top. It's overall a very hard Burger to beat by any other restaurant. I very strongly recommend Ford's garage to any nostalgic burger lover.“

“Popped in for a snack and to enjoy some live music. Had the corn dogs and small loosey's salad. Both were quite good. The corn dogs had a very good batter that was less bready than is typical (which I liked) and the beer mustard and house bbq dipping sauces were great. The band that was playing looked like they were undergrad/grad students. They were very talented and their music perfectly matched the vibe of the bar.“

“Although it is (unfortunately) started in Oklahoma, I am from Texas and this is a "staple" like another restaurant that rhymes with "Waterburger". If Florida could step up the taste and food choices like Texas, we would eat there more than occasionally. But I do stop in for the slushies and "Halloween Corndogs" and the occasional "Footlong Cheese and Onion" that taste pretty good.“

“Always loved the product. But must say the 360 change in business is so awesome. The crew hustles as a unit. Came in to pick up a Dash order and everyone knew what the order needed. So well oiled. Bangin team. So we went to dine 2-3 days later and yes, they are still all that! The food (Fries, tots, burgers, shakes) was absolutely amazing. Great as always. They always had clean oil!! Buuut the new beef tallow is super good!!“
