Just had a fantastic night with the BOYS at Famous Dave’s. We ordered rib tips and beer all night long while watching football. Our server Madeline was amazing and took great care of us!

Came here for the first time tonight and I’m suprised it wasn’t more busy because the service was great! All of the staff was so nice, but especially the host! He gave such a warm welcome that is above and beyond what I’d usually expect for a Tuesday night! Will definitely be back :)

We were a group of four celebrating a birthday. We ordered both BBQ (Famous Dave’s) and steak dinners (Texas T Bone). Hannah, our waitress, did a great job taking care of us. The food was very good (5 stars). The atmosphere was good (4 stars). The restaurant strives to be a sports bar style with country music playing and multiple TVs playing seasonal sports.

My dad and I went to Texas T-bone/Famous Dave's to celebrate my birthday. It turned out that my daughter and her family drove from Chicago to surprise me for my birthday! The owners and the staff were in on the big surprise, and it was a huge, very happy shock to see them at the restaurant with balloons and flowers! The adults got excellent steaks and ribs, and the kids got delicious looking hamburgers. With the big surprise, I didn't think to take pictures of the food like I usually do at a restaurant. I'd highly recommend Texas T-bone and Famous Dave's BBQ...
Especially for a birthday!

Went to pick up the Veterans Day meal I ordered online. Pulled up right in front, walked in and walked right back out with my order, warm and made correctly.

I just posted this but it still came back I went to Famous Dave's and Texas T-Bone for the free barbecue pork sandwich and fries for Veterans Day for free and I had to take advantage of that being its Texas T-Bone and Famous Dave's barbecue. Number of people were there looking for that same deal that I had. Recommended even if they don't have that deal.

Picked up a salad and feast for 2 to-go. No one helped us when we got there, even though we made eye contact with 3 employees, including a manager. Get home and the salad is INEDIBLE! Pretty sure they did it on purpose with a to-go order so that the complaint wouldn’t come in until we were home. I removed the toppings to see what kitchen staff saw before they covered it with toppings to hide the rotten salad.

My husband and myself came here all the time when we lived in the area and we love it. We travel full time now and this was one of the first places we had to eat at when we got back in the area. The cuts of meat are always great and this is one of the few places that makes it RARE how I like. The service is fantastic and I prefer the lowkey, quieter atmosphere here compared to places like Texas Roadhouse with the constant singing and loud music. Their discounts for military and specials they do are also some of the best I’ve seen and huge respect for offering 20% off on Monday’s. A gem in my opinion and will always be coming back here.

I was chuckling to myself reading these bad reviews of famous Dave’s. I have had nothing but good experiences here. Even this trip being back in the springs the manager Mark made a point to come welcome us personally. Also have had the owners themselves welcome us on other visits. They also offer a great first responders discount on Monday. Food is always fantastic and well put together. Can not recommend this place enough. Don’t let the whiners steer you away. This place rocks.

I ate here today and I could seriously not have asked for a better experience! I had the privilege of meeting Mark the manager and server, Miss Cherylann. I really am incredibly lucky to have met them and had such an amazing meal. Get over here soon and have an amazing experience!

We eat here often and can’t say enough good things. My daughter has celiac and needs gluten free items. She had tons of options and loved her food, so did I. She had no issues. She is celiac. All of our food was absolutely delicious. Our waitress Linsey and the manager Mark were wonderful. Highly recommend Famous Dave’s
