The plain, wood-paneled dining room that’s the archetype of every BBQ spot doesn’t give any hints at the innovative fun lurking on the menu at this Oakhurst joint. It’s where the flavors of the South collide with “south of the border” cuisine. So damn-near every high-top table will have a basket of chips and queso and a saucy rack of ribs—plus a pile of used napkins from enthusiastic eaters. And this place does many things well. You'll find that proof in standouts like a smoky pulled pork sandwich on a buttery bun or the birria tacos loaded down with juicy braised brisket and a side of rich bone broth for dipping. Add the relaxed, neighborhood charm and Ford’s is great for an unfussy, solid meal.
