All good...no bad!! Our first time there, but not our last. The folks who work at FG have a mind to stop by and say HI..they are genuinely friendly. Food is to die for..seriously..if you are in the area (we drove 1 hr 30 min and will do it again) stop at Fords Garage....

This place brings a whole new level of nostalgia that takes you back to how cool cars were back in the day!
Food here is solid, got a burger was a good burger decently priced. Not something to write home about but very good compared to other places. Well worth restaurant quality burger!

Staff was helpful and understanding!

All in all, good food good service! Way better than TGIF or Applebees!
