My ex-girlfriend just raves about this place and I finally decided to find out why. So I stopped in. Now I know why she loves it. I thought I was a great cook and could mix and match flavors and textures, and I thought some of my favorite restaurant choices had good food, but my stuff and the food in other places I frequent is lousy compared to Ford's! Used to having kobe beef at japanese/suchi places, I tried the kobe at Ford's and was shocked at how tender and tasty it was. Totally unexpected and wonderful. tAlso tried the asparagus with parmesan and loved it although it could do with a bit more cheese. The chocolate dessert thing was so good I had two. I wanted some shrimp cocktail but they were sold out for the night. And while I don't know much about wine, I recognize the good labels from the wines my ex drank and see some of them at Ford's. Love the varieties of Tequila. Would really like to see them carry Chartreuse though. I want to go back to try some other menu items (the meat and cheese platters someone on the next table had looked really good) but I'm afraid I'll run into my ex...and I'll feel stupid since I would never go with her to Ford's and now I'm sorry I didn't. The music is really great, too. The place has a nice vibe to it and I will be back.
Pros: Great food. Great variety.
Cons: Closes too early. Should be open until 1:30 a.m.
