Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que

Had a nice meal at Famous Dave’s Bar-B-Que while visiting long beach. The service was great, our drinks were always full, and the food was. Very good. My wife and I watched tv on the big screen and were able to talk without being drowned out by noise. Everything was very clean as well. I would recommend you check it out if you’re in the area!

Popped in on a quiet Friday afternoon, place was quiet but looked the part inside... brisket sandwich and pulled chicken sandwich ordered... beers and food came very quickly. The brisket was awful... at best can best described as bits that were ready for the bin from previous cooks chopped up, heated up and popped on a bun. Not tender at all and not what a smokehouse should be offering. Friend said chicken was good. On a plus their bbq sauces where very very good but unfortunately they were badly needed for the brisket

Sunday afternoon they had reruns running on the TVs in the bar one small TV had football games on. I asked for my salad wings out first everything came out at one time. It was cold. The bartender was not very nice at all. We never got water we asked for other things that never came. Just absolutely horrible. I’ve been in famous days in Phoenix many times as wonderful. This place is a joke.

This was my very first time trying barbecue — ever — and it couldn’t have been better! I’ve been pescatarian/vegetarian since 2008, so I wanted this to be special, and it absolutely was. Jason was amazing — he gave us great suggestions, encouraged us to step out of our comfort zone, and even let us sample a few things before ordering. We ended up getting the Burnt Ends and Texas Beef Brisket, and wow — the burnt ends literally melted in my mouth, and the brisket was so juicy and flavorful. We also tried the coleslaw, mac and cheese, and Wilbur Beans. The coleslaw was crisp and refreshing, the mac and cheese had just the right jalapeño kick, and the beans were smoky and rich. The banana pudding was also very delicious. So light and fluffy. The perfect way to end a meal. 10/10 — highly r

Went here due to Gladstone experience being a waste of time. Got food fast, people were nice and music was different.
