★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Mala Persaud · Oct 2025

Unfortunately I went here to get dinner after work for takeout, the first red flag should’ve been the takeout box not being warm, it was very disappointing to the point I can’t even eat it, I got a rack of ribs for around 40$ and it was so dry and hard to chew and smells weird as if they were just sitting for a long time.. not my first time at this location but more than likely my last. Even close to closing time, you should make your customers good food. You never know if this was their only meal

★★★★★ 5.0 Zacharus Turner · Jan 2026

I had a great experience dining at Famous Dave's. I'm not a pork eater, but I found thier BBQ Chicken quit delicious. They have many side dishes that are just as good. My friends say that their ribs are lip smacking and finger licking clean. The best part was their friendly service. I've been a fan for decades.

Yesterday I placed an order for delivery. (side note, I live 6 blocks away). I placed my order at 7:02pm. Strike 1, I wanted a 3 meat, 2 rib tips & 1 brisket, I was told I could not order 2 of the same meats 🤔 but that I could or a 2 meat with an extra side of tips for $4 (I know, ridiculous) so I did. My order arrived at 7:51pm. Despite giving the order taker explicit instructions for the delivery person, they had none, strike 2. So I went downstairs to retrieve my order, this guy was standing outside, in the dark... ok. I go upstairs, my food is COLD! (I live 6 blocks away!) I the presentation was pretty decent, however, the food was straight garbage! Strike 3! The brisket was both tough & dry & the tips, most of them weren't even tips, I'm not even sure what part of the pig they came

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Desiree Boeltl · Feb 2026

Food was terrible! 3 of us had the 2 meat combo with ribs and brisket. Ribs were 85 percent fat and over cooked for all of us . Brisket was also over cooked 😔, corn was good but that's about it. Would never go there again. I do not recommend it!

You can't rush near perfection!! The food here is consistently good to great. I ate at this location multiple times and rarely disappointed. I love the decor and the atmosphere is cool also. I like that they have multiple TVs and you can watch the football game on Sundays there. I like that they have lunch specials and staff is friendly and helpful. My favorite is the rib tips🔥
