It was my wife's birthday tonight. We had a rough day in regards to things and wanted to get to the restaurant earlier but didn't end up there until 8:15 when they closed at 9pm. We are in the service industry and don't like coming in that late.

Our server Lolita gave us a great experience and we enjoyed her delightful demeanor and her willingness to talk. Out food came out promptly and we'll cooked. Thanks Lolita.

Excellent customer service. Mark the manager has a great personality and was very welcoming. Our waitress Lindsey was very attentive with also great personality and took great care of us. Food was excellent and delicious. We will definitely be back over and over and over again!

The food is great! Their signature salads are huge and VERY good! I had the ribs and even dry rub, the way I got them, they were seasoned great and tender. Oh, and the peach cobbler was WONDERFUL! The waiters/waitresses are right on point and very nice and friendly. Plenty of room. The general manager was very nice and absolutely cared about us getting the best service and even had gloves on helping out. Last but not least…one of the owners (Tristan) was SO kind and so easy to talk to and was SO accommodating and made our visit even that much better! I HIGHLY recommend Famous Dave’s BBQ anytime you are able to stop in to one!

Love the vibe...traditional BBQ!
Ordered a combo platter, roasted chicken and St. Louis Ribs. FANTASTIC!! THE sides, potato salad and Wilbur beans were tasty!!

Presentation was great and price is reasonable!!! Will come again when we want BBQ.

Have enjoyed every dish I have ordered, even the appetizers! Wait staff never let my cup get empty (without asking), and they're all genuinely friendly.

We went to the combined Texas T-bone and Famous Dave’s BBQ last night. We were very pleased with everything. They have the wonderful make your own salad from Texas T-bone and the mouth watering smoky BBQ from Famous Dave’s. How can you go wrong? Our server, Lolita, was very friendly and attentive. She kept our drinks full and that’s a big deal in our family. Thirsty people. We then met the manager, Madelyn, who was so gracious and welcoming. Thanks for the bbq sauce! Can’t wait to use it! Oh, and a fresh pecan pie to go was amazing! We will be back! Support this local business! 5 stars all around!

We wear so amazing at the food portions. Our waitress Victoria was wonderful. This was our first time here and both myself and husband were very impressed. We are always looking for a wonderful place to have a nice steak. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. The side salad they gave us was from another world. Other Restaurants normally do on up charge on the salad we got. The feeds 2.
The owners came out to greet customers and check on their customers. You don’t even see that much.
Great place to eat. We will definitely be back.
Thank you

The owner walked around and made sure we were good multiple times. She also gave us a first time guest gift of BBQ sauce and a $15 gift card for next time. Food was good.

Excellent food and service. Great combo great steak house and Famous Dave's BbQ. Love this place! Fried pickles best ever ... becusea they start with Famous Dave's spicy pickles. The burnt ends and the ribs were top notch! Potato salad and Cole slaw were great and went perfect with the bbq. Salads big and lots of ingredients! Kids meal was great ... and they even offer ribs for kids!

We had not been to Texas T Bone in a while. We truly enjoyed spending Valentines dinner with them. One of the owners came around to talk and it was a lovely visit.

Absolutely my favorite steakhouse. The atmosphere was nice. I could hear myself talk, also the bread and steak were extremely good, and the ribs were done to perfection. Definitely going back next year Valentine's Day and many more times after that.

Famous Dave’s has great food and great prices. I met here for a Shriner’s meeting and they were able to set us up in a private room so we could have our meeting and eat. I’m a big fan of their large salads and BBQ ribs / chicken. A great fun and friendly place to take the family.

This was my first American steakhouse & BBQ experience, and it couldn't have been better. The food is great and the staff are lovely. You can tell the management team really care about the place.
The fried pickles are a must have!
