O.M.G. This place was sooo good. What made it better was the staff! They're speedy fast throughout the customers. As soon as i... ordered boom the food was already there! Dont get me started on the food!! The way the macaroni with jalepenos and corn meltedin my mouth was such a dream. My fav one is located in El Paso, Texas! Im coming back for you Famous Daves!! Super delicious Read more

My wife and I ordered a 3 meat platter each with 2 sides each through Favor. I ordered ribs, Brisket and pulled pork with a... side of fries and Cole slaw. My wife ordered Brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage and wings with a side of grilled pineapple andfirecracker greenbeans. What we received was only ribs, coleslaw and fries yet charged full price. Never again! Don't orderhere Read more

Got the big family order..Not to our liking at all..Only thing good was the cornbread muffins. Should have known better..ghost

The Good Ribs plate was delicious Brisket sandwich very good Baked potato right on Corn on the cob was tender and sweet Dinner... side salad fresh and generous Pulled pork sandwich was pretty good The Bad When ordered in person, the meals took about 15-20minutes to be delivered to the counter, because it is only served as take-away style. Because the food comes out of somekitchen somewhere and delivered to the order desk/counter in to go boxes inside of plastic carry out bags it is never hot andnever fresh. The corn bread was more properly called ?corn cake?. It was truly as sweet as any blueberry muffin. This is nothyperbole. I have never had tableware nor napkins nor BBQ sauce in the take out bag with any food order. Ribs without sauce? No bueno. The Ugly I have never had an order 100 percent correct. Once I got the wrong meal entirely. Once I was told (aftera twenty minute wait) that my order would come out of the kitchen ?any minute now.? When another employee checked among thebags of orders still sitting on the staging table five minutes later, they said ?Oh! Here is yours!? This place is literallyINSIDE Johnny Carino?s Italian Restaurant!!! There is NO EXTERNAL SIGNAGE!!!! Google and Apple Maps can not find it!!!! Itis impossible to find! I can not tell where the kitchen is, but I was told that this is a ?virtual? restaurant. But the foodis real. It would be wonderful if it was hot. Read more

Place is terrible. I don?t need to say anymore they will not stay in business. People are friendly and nice barbecue cold and... old. Read more

Ordered a rib & meat plate and a 3 meat plate online from the Famous Dave?s website for a future pickup time of 5:30PM. That was... my first mistake! The food was cold and not made for the set pick up time. It seemed to have been made at the order timeinstead of the actual future pickup time. When I asked if the food had been waiting their a long time, the staff member, said ithad just been brought out which was NOT the case at all. The receipt on the food was prepared at the order time which was over1.5 hours prior to pick up! Again this was for a FUTURE order, which was not made to order. I checked the food right in front ofthe staff member to be sure. The fries were soggy & cold. The salad was at room temperature at best & the croutons were soggymush! The meat was no where near warm at all! The meat was all mixed together & not in separate containers as ordered with it?sappropriate sides. The cornbread was clearly a day old and hard as a rock! This is the last time that I?d order from here. Theonly reason I had placed a future order was because I thought due to Friday night traffic & shortage in staff that I wanted tobe mindful of all that. In the end for the amount of money I spent the food was nothing close to what a Famous Dave?s pridesitself for. Read more

Famous Dave's BBQ seems to want to push the boundaries of what people generally think of as BBQ, that's not a good thing. My... wife and I ordered the rib with meat special with two sides for takeout and I can honestly say the best thing about the meal wasthe to go boxes and plastic silverware, those forks were sturdy. The and brisket definitely seemed to have that smell of smokeygoodness but when we got home and opened the to go boxes which was paper based cardboard material, way better than plasticcontainers and such from other restaurants, unfortunately the meal inside did not meet the standards of what I would call adecent . Save yourself your time and money and go anywhere else, Cicis pizza is a comparable meal at a better price. Read more

Be aware, they are located INSIDE the Johnny Carino's, Google had sent us to a different part of the shopping center and we... drove around for a while before calling and asking. However, it is well worth the hunt to find! The food was amazing! Read more
