As a food reviewer for Foodjoyy, I was excited to explore the diverse menu that offers a wide array of delicious comfort food. To start your engines, I highly recommend the Ford's Classic Wings. These crispy chicken wings are expertly cooked and generously served with celery sticks, your choice of savory bleu cheese or ranch dressing, and a choice of three tantalizing sauces: Buffalo, Bourbon BBQ, or Nashville Hot. Priced at a reasonable US$19.99, they make a perfect appetizer to share—or not!

Moving on to the Cheese Curbs, which feature creamy Tillamook cheddar in a perfect bite-sized form, paired with chipotle ranch for a delightful kick. At US$14.50, these cheese bites are an irresistible indulgence. Pair these with the Motor City Kettle Chips, seasoned chips adorned with crispy bacon and Ford's signature beer cheese—who knew comfort could taste this good?

The star-studded Roadster offerings are not to be missed. The Cali Roadster dazzles with roasted garlic aioli, tomato, avocado, and pepper jack cheese. Priced at US$16.99, it embodies the essence of fresh Californian flavors. Alternatively, the Ranchero Roadster, topped with hickory smoked brisket and decadent bourbon BBQ sauce, is a meat lover's dream, priced at US$17.50—each bite packed with rich flavors and textures. If you prefer something classic, the Americana Roadster, a one-third pound burger, offers timeless satisfaction at US$16.99.
