Your preference in cars won't matter as you enjoy the atmosphere in this overpriced eatery. Good food. Great atmosphere. But the food is overpriced for the equivalent elsewhere. Worth the experience. read more

Delicious burgers! If you like spicy, make sure you get a side of chipotle ketchup They usually have seasonal specials, but really their burgers and anything Mac & Cheese are a sure thing read more

The service was excellent. Everybody was very friendly. We were giving menus right away and and were given the option to move indoors if we were too cold. My mother ordered the wagYu beef burger and I had the pulled pork sandwich. The food was good but it's not going to blow your mind. Frankly it's about what I expected. No major complaints. Best part about this place is probably the beer selection. Though I'm sure some people will get a kick out of the themed automotive decor. read more

Been wanting to come here for a while. Always busy. Finished shopping at the miramar outlets so decided to try it while we were here. Greeted at the door with a long line so we are at the bar. Got greeted as soon as we sat down. Hooks under the bar for your bag. Offered drinks. Ice all the way around the bar to put your drink to keep it cold. Silver comes wrapped in a napkin/rag. Totally cat themed everywhere you look! The only thing low carb about the lo carburetor is the no bun. Because you can top it with cheese or anything else to make it no longer lo carb. All burger options can be substituted for chicken or turkey! Lots of burger choices. Good came out quick and cooked correctly. Everything was delish, especially the side of fries. Desserts looked good too but too full! Will try the onion soup and maybe dessert next time. read more

Good food and a decent selection of beer. They didn't have a Stout or porter on tap but several in a bottle or can so that was acceptable. Reliable food and the bartender was very knowledgeable on his beers. read more

We went to FGSU for a campus tour for my daughter. We had Gianna as our server and she is so outgoing & bubbly. The concept of the restaurant is really cool .

I ordered the Model A Burger my wife ordered the Ford's Signature Burger & my daughter the Mac & Cheese with shrimp. The food look's so fresh & delicious. Burgers where cooked perfect juicy.

This place is beyond cool! If you like cars you'll love this place. They are very well known for there burgers and craft beers. As soon as you walk in you are wowed with the small details like the gas pump handles on the doors, a car hanging from the ceiling, leather menus and etc. I had the estate burger and it was such a unique and delicious experience. My burger was cooked to perfection! The presentation was really cool they stamp it with the company name and present it with a little flag. The fries were okay although the onion rings were AMAZING. However, it's a $1.49 up charge and they only give you 3 to 4. But I must say they had so much flavor as opposed to the wedges that lacked a lot of flavor. This is a unique experience and definitely touristy. I will be coming back here for the estate burger it made quite the impression on me. read more

If you enjoy burgers, and draft beers, this is your place. As we pass the Model T in front of restaurant, it bring back some insight into our old 1920s 1930s auto garage. Even the bathrooms carry the same theme. For appetizer, we share an Onion Ring Tower. The deep fried onion rings were crunchy and tasty. My wife ordered Ford's Signature burger, or burger with chedder bacon, BBQ sauce, lettuce, tomato and red onion on a brioche bun with Ford's Garage mark. Her side with sweet potato fries with cinnamon sauce. She love her burger! Mine is the (American) Kobe Beef burger topped with Swiss cheese, caramelized onions, arugula, garlic aioli, lettuce and tomato on brioche bun. I also ordered the sweet potato fries. It was delicious with a local draft beer from Fort Myers Brewing Co, Gateway Gold. My other guest had the mushroom Swiss Burger with Swiss cheese, sautéed mushrooms, lettuce, tomato and onion. Another guest ordered the Black and Blue Burger. The Black and Blue Burger was smothered with Blue cheese, bacon, caramelized onion, lettuce, tomato on a pretzel bun. They both enjoyed their burgers. For this month, there is a special draft beer from Harpoon Brewery for $4.50 all month long! Very interesting! The ambience is great and our server, Jenny, did a great job of getting the drinks and food. Highly recommend place for draft beers and burgers! read more

Went here for a late Friday night dinner after the Blades game tonight. The place was quiet at 10:00pm, with only a few tables occupied. I was impressed with the decor, lots of old Ford cars in the restaurant and a cool bar in the center. We were seated in a high booth. The waitress was pleasant. She gave us a few tips. We ordered the model A burger with fries and gravy, plus a side of onion rings. Ginger ale and water to drink. The ginger ale that arrived tasted too watery. We told the waitress and she said she would bring a cherry coke. She also said she would not charge us for the ginger ale, which I would hope not! The burger arrived within 20 minutes, which was very tasty with the cheese, thick bacon, and egg, but the fries were cold. We told the gentleman who delivered them and he brought us a fresh batch. They forgot the gravy, even though we asked about it twice. The onion rings came, which were hot, but you only get four onion rings, far too little for what you pay. read more

Food and ambiance were great. Will return when I am back in the area. service is as on point.

I had been to the Ford's Garage in downtown Ft Myers a few years ago and enjoyed it. I was excited when they opened one closer to home in Estero, but, years went by and I never visited ... until this weekend. We we're warmly greeted when we arrived. We mentioned that we preferred a booth, and we're seated quickly in a nice, spacious, corner booth ... we we're quite pleased. The hostess, and our server we're very friendly, we really enjoyed the decorations and garage theme ... real cool stuff right down to the last detail. We ordered some onion rings ( which were awesome) and I decided I was interested in a cocktail. I looked at the prices and thought they were a little high ($10 - $11) which would be ok if they were on the large side. When I asked the waitress about the size of the drink it seemed it was just barely larger than a normal drink at any other place. When I declined to order a drink the waitress tried to imply that the reason for the high price was due to the fact that they took extra effort to make the drink "pretty" ... That the drink was somehow "artistry"!?!? This kinda ticked me off! (ok ... I can be grumpy old man) I just felt a little insulted that she thought I was dumb enough to be convinced that a garnish was art! (grumpy, grumpy, grumpy) She was a good waitress, and just a kid, I felt bad for putting her on the spot ... sincerely!!! I also got a little grumpy when they brought out our onion rings we realized immediatly we needed more dipping sauce, but, the gal who brought them out (not our waitress) plopped them on the table, turned around, and immediately walked away before we could even ask a question. Ticked me off ... they really weren't even that busy! I know ... grumpy, grumpy, grumpy old man. We flagged down our waitress and she quickly resolved the issue. We actually had a really good time the food was awesome the service was good and we had fun. We will probably go back and I would recommend it. If it wasn't for the sauce thing ... I would have rated them a 4 star. If they weren't so greedy with their drink prices I would give them a 5 star rating ... AND ... I would be a REGULAR! We really liked this place and will most likely be going back. read more

Ford's Garage Estero - Entrance - Bars Near Me - Estero, Florida

Fun Garage Themed Restaurant and Bar in the Miromar Outlets shopping plaza. Parking is easy and plentiful. Ford's Garage is exactly what it sounds like - a Ford Garage themed restaurant. There is an antique Ford on a lift above the bar. Staff wear garage uniform style shirts with their names on patches. Cutlery is bundled with a shop rag that serves as your napkin with a hose clamp to hold everything together. It's worth a trip to the restrooms just to see the gas nozzle water spigots and wheel well basins. They are known for their Craft Beer and Burgers but have a full bar and offer more than typical pub grub. The Chop Shop Salad and Chili Garlic Salmon are both favorites. They offer great options for "Custom Builds" with some options you simply won't find at most other places. Besides black angus beef, ground chicken patties, and marinated chicken breasts, they also offer: grilled portobello mushroom, ahi tuna steak, Kobe beef and open range bison. There's also a great list of options for bread, cheese and sauce. The Funnel Cake Fries make a great dessert. They come with white chocolate and raspberry dipping sauces. They disappear fast. This was my first visit to this location and everything was as expected. They handled our large group well, especially considering we came in at different times. Thank you, Loren, for the excellent service! Final Assessment: Great choice for casual meals in a fun and interesting setting. read more

This is a great place to get together with a group of people and just have a few laughs and enjoy the ambience of a wonderful restaurant in Fort Myers. We each had different entrées that were prepared to perfection. One of the things I liked was the fact that we can't talk so freely without the restaurant being too loud and in the music being too loud. Lauren took great care of us and we just had a very nice evening posted some pictures of their fresh food we look forward to seeing it again! read more

I have been here many times before. Today was a particularly lovely experience. Rose was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the chicken tenders for the first time and was very pleasantly surprised. The tenders were crispy on the outside, moist on the inside, and very well seasoned. I got the fries that come with them and those were OK. They could have been a little more seasoned for my taste. The atmosphere was delightful as we sat outside and the weather was perfect. read more

Talk about accommodating- we started as a small group of three and grew into a table of ten, and they just kept adding tables for us. I had the American Standard burger, which was more than I could eat. The bun is even "branded" with their name ( pretty cool) I asked for a salad instead of fries, and I should have eaten that first and taken the burger home or eaten the burger and taken the salad home. For $12.00 it was more than I could eat. Then I had a chance to taste the funnel fries!! Good thing I was full ( and they weren't mine) or I would have eaten them all!! You get a raspberry sauce and a cream cheese sauce to dip them in, so switch it up and try them both!! read more

Great selection of draft beers, including Florida/local beers, and a great selection of burgers! I love their pretzel app and they have a bomb house salad. Service is always good! Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Side note: If you're veg or vegan they have more than most restaurants have to offer. Their portobello burger is decent but their veggie patty is my fav! U can sub any burger out with a veggie patty to portobello. Noms! read more

I order often through DoorDash with Ford's garage. I love the shrimp and berry salad. Unfortunately, they routinely leave the shrimp off my order. I can't help but feeling ripped off. For a salad that is almost $20, a lot of that cost is going to be the protein. They are making a nice profit by "forgetting" the shrimp. read more

Chloe Campbell is by far the best server/host ever I have had the best experience at Fords Garage Estero location. she is a star

We went there often when we lived in Estero. Don't get up there much from Bonita Springs. Good lunch spot

So a year has passed and we decided to visit again as near our hotel suite for the weekend. We were glad we did ... The Bang Bang Shrimp was hot, sweet, and crispy. A beautiful appetizer perhaps a little expensive but well worth the admission. We also tried the Buffalo Dip and Chips. This was a warm dip with chunks of chicken and celery in a creamy buffalo concoction. Most of the family did burgers including the kids. Grandpa chose the fresh chicken strips and fries. More than plenty and looked like hand breaded I. Store. He thought they were great. The burgers we made to order and tasted fine, could use a little more seasoning however. My Limited Edition burger called the 76'er had bacon and deep fried pickle planks. I didn't like the pickles themselves, but made crispy and seemed like a unique offering to any burger. Everyone was full but decided on the Funnel Cake Fries. Everyone could not stop the dipping and the crispy fresh sweet sticks. read more

We eat here often because it is close to our bank and the Publix we shop at. We quit for a while when they chose to serve cold chicken on their salads instead of grilled (which I will never forgive them for). But the rest of the menu is good and the service is excellent so we returned, but not quite as often because I really like salads. read more

Great food and service! You just can't get a colder beer in the area. They even have a frost strip along the bar top.

Gluten free bun crumbled instantly upon grabbing our pulled pork sandwich. Mac n cheese came out barely warm. Server took off the up charge. Rather than simply re-heat the mac they made an entirely new one. well that took some time and we ended up taking most of it home. Glassware and finished plates were not cleared unless asked...or not at all. Water glasses were never refilled. Our server was well intentioned but had next to zero attentiveness. We were a party of 9 and others wanted to mention other issues but decided against and settled. I was somewhat surprised that the manager did not stop at our table. Sad but true as this was a family reunion of sorts. read more

We met some friends here for dinner last night. It was quite busy for a Tuesday. All of the staff were wearing masks. They were out of several of the beers that we wanted to try. That was OK because they had a large selection and we ended up finding something we liked. Our server Oscar was polite and prompt. I tried the appetizer boom boom shrimp, it was good, but quite spicy. My wife had a nice arugula salad that she liked a lot. Others at our table had the mahi-mahi and the Cobb salad. Everyone was pleased with their entrées. This was our first time here but we would definitely be back. Can't wait to try the burgers and the onion rings! read more

Great customer service! On our way to see a hockey game at Germain Arena and visited Ford's before the game. Everything was fresh and they had a huge beer list to choose from.
