Fords Garage Plano - Plano (TX)

2 /5 Dave Jenkins: I decided to try this restaurant because the garage-themed décor caught my attention. The concept is fun and visually interesting. The staff was warm and friendly, and honestly, that was the highlight of our visit. My wife ordered a burger on a gluten-free bun. The presentation looked great—the patty was massive—but unfortunately, the flavor didn’t live up to the size. Big burger, small taste. She also ordered chicken wings. The exterior had a nice char and was coated in a tangy-sweet BBQ sauce that looked promising. Inside, though, the chicken was fatty. At least it wasn’t dry—but that’s a low bar. I ordered the tomato basil soup. Most restaurants serve soup hot; this one did not. The server warned me that the plate was very hot, but failed to mention how cold the soup itself was. In hindsight, I should’ve known—earlier I asked for hot water and received something barely warm. I understand the restaurant has burn concerns, but if waivers are an option, I’ll sign one. Hot food should be hot. The soup was reheated (clearly microwaved) and returned. To be fair, the flavor and seasoning were good. The biggest disappointment, however, was my salad. The greens were mushy, and the chicken—despite looking nicely grilled—was stringy, tough, and unpleasant to chew. Appearance clearly matters more here than execution. In the end, this place nails the garage aesthetic but misses the mark on the food. It’s a good spot for an oil change—not so much for a memorable meal.

5 /5 Steve K.: Always a fan of Fords Garage Plano! Its an American restaurant with a vintage motor garage theme, featuring classic Ford elements. The food is delicious and weve been through many of their rotating menus. My favorite is still their bison burger, but I do miss their brisket Mac n cheese! Great ambience for the whole family, young and senior and plenty of beer on tap, can, bottle -- and a full bar if youre hankering for a cocktail instead.

5 /5 Brian J: Got a burger here for the first time today and it was great. The food was good and the atmosphere is really cool with all of the car memorabilia. Very unique restaurant and would be a great place to take visitors to. Also its very convenient to the movie theater next door.

5 /5 Angelic Watkins: Was visiting Texas with our son and he was so excited to take us here and it did not disappoint My husband is a huge Ford guy so he was just like a kid in a candy shop here. So much nostalgia so much ambiance an absolute must if you have never been. The food is great as well as the drink and beer selection, but the thing that stood out the most was our server Parker. Most the time when you go to a restaurant. The servers are friendly and attentive, but Parker was more than that. He engaged in conversation and recommendations, We literally wanted him to sit down and have dinner with us. He is an absolute asset to your establishment. And he single-handedly made our experience go from a good one to a spectacularly, Great one!

5 /5 Adam B: Great ambiance, great food, but for me the star was the service. Josh was personable, attentive, thoughtful, unobtrusive, and genuine. All of the stuff that makes me super thrilled to come back. Food: I had the oil funnel onion rings and they were pretty good. The Estate Burger was off the charts great - cooked perfectly, full of flavor, obviously fresh. I got the Old Fashioned Burnout which was great and had a smokeshow which is cool. We are waiting for our dessert and Im sure itll be great too. My son got to hong the "Aooogah" horn on the car suspended over the bar which made him happy too. I live about 45 min away and occasionally have to come to Plano. Now I have a reason not to groan when I have to come out this way. Thanks! I did feel a bit guilty parking my Tacoma in front of 35 Ford signs, but oh well Im Toyota for life.
