" The beef is sourced from Niman Ranch and shows a nice crust. The bun is a big top brioche-style that makes a stab at originality with a twist of onion baked into it...."
"Hostess gave me a 15min wait, we got a drink at the bar & 15 minutes later, a table was available. My girl and I decided to make it a..."
"And at first I ordered a glass of Cab but then I spyed the cocktails list sitting behind the bar and pushed to the side. I immediately asked to see it and was impressed by the selection...."
"What's worth going to 'Ford's Filling Station' or 'Fraiche' in Culver City..."
"I am not squeamish about scary-looking fish but I was slightly put off by the slimy spotted tail. In addition, I think it was telling that I had to take about a million photos of the dish...."
"Since down-to-earth can seem so original here, Ford"s Filling Station, the new gastropub opening today in Culver City, might cause a wave of whiplash. From the bar to the lofted ceiling in the dining room, chef Ben Ford (who calls Indiana Jones dad)..."

"Ben Ford and His Temple of Meat. "Head to Tail" Dining at Ford's Filling Station. Culver City, CA...."
"For the side dishes they brought out Roasted Kabocha Risotto, Brussel Sprouts with Bacon, Cavalo Nero & Escarole and nicely rounding out with Roasted Carrots with Pomegranate. The selection of winter veggies was a nice touch, and each dish was delicious...."
"This was heavenly. I love butterscotch pudding and this was really the pinnacle of butterscotch. I loved the chopped nuts on top, it gave a nice contrast to the pudding...."
"Chef Ben Ford, previously of Chadwick, is opening Ford's Filling Station in Culver City on Valentine's Day. I had a peek of the gastropub-style menu and the space at an opening reception Saturday -- dad Harrison and Calista also stopped by -- and it looke..."
"For main courses, I settled on the walleye pike with fennel mash and leek cream, two of my favorite veggies. J hemmed and hawed, vascillating between the steak or leg of lamb, but finally kept it simple and went for the chopped sirloin burger, with blue c..."
"All three desserts we split were good to great. King Hawaiian Bread Pudding ($8) was crafted from chunks of sweet Hawaiian bread produced by King’s bakery in the South Bay. This version sported a crème fraiche cap and the plate was strewn with intensely s..."
"Somehow I ended up with half of the leftovers. The pork loin made for great lunch/dinner along with the pork confit sandwich :P This was a very special treat, since chef Ford does not normally make this unless by special request, and we all had a blast!..."
"I was the brain child behind the idea to meet two of my girlfriends for drinks and appetizers as (advertised) on city search for Fords Filling Station. The happy hour is mentioned on the City Search web site as being from 4 to 5:30 p...."
"Clam Chowder with Manila Clams, Roasted Potatoes, Tomatoes, Bacon in a Creamy Leek Broth - very rich and, as you can see, chock full of the good stuff... no little, limp, rubbery pieces of mollusks here...."
"Under an exposed-beam ceiling, a cozy bar and brick walls complement the wall of glass at the front, which looks out onto tables on the bustling sidewalk, and a lack of wall in the back, where chef Ford's open kitchen churns out a small menu of classy com..."
"Bottom line: Yum. This is the food I love to eat. These are fresh, well-seasoned, unpretentious, and simple dishes borne of a deep hunger within, not of some intellectual curiosity or misinformed science project..."
"I happen to be lucky enough to work not too far from the Filling Station, and they have now opened for lunch. My first recommendation is reservations are mandatory if you want to get anywhere near the place...."
"here is a din at dinnertime inside the earth-toned Culver City culinary enclave known as Ford"s Filling Station. The aural landscape is not solely composed of clanging glasses, banging plates, shuffling servers, gnashing palates, and ch-chinging credit-..."
"The main courses were tasty and filling, although none quite lived up to the promise of that clam chowder. My porchetta sandwich with fontina and caramelized onions was a fantastic take on a ham n' cheese sammie, although the flatbreads that Ford's uses m..."
"We also tried the skirt steak sandwich – dressed with horseradish aioli and fried shallots – and a grilled eggplant sandwich with buratta cheese, leeks, peppers and pesto...."
"i went the lighter route and ordered the split pea soup (w/yummilicious bacon bits) & my favorite lentil salad. soon enjoyed his first baguette-based french toast w/strawberries & bacon...."
"to celebrate, i decided to splurge on a special dinner event at one of my favorite places in LA: ford's filling station...."
"If you don't mind rude hosts, and sometimes downright awful food, unstable bar stools and the high prices ($30 avg per plate) then this is the place for you!..."
