If you’ve ever wondered what disappointment tastes like, this place has it on the menu. No chicken, no ribs, no baked potatoes, and no flavor anywhere to be found. The “mac and cheese” tasted like cardboard, and the sausage looked like it had been through really hard times. We were relocated to a different table as soon as we sat down. Moved from a clean table to a dirty table. Served sweet tea and then never came to refill until the end and then said, we’re out of sweet tea. Huh, isn’t this a BBQ restaurant?
The highlight of the meal? The baked beans. Don’t believe the hype on these other reviews.

My favorite was the sausage, but everything was excellent! Our server patty was very friendly and attentive.
Camden, was very busy and was on top of all the orders and customers. He was smiling and very positive even with hard to please customers. He made my experience at Dave amazing. Food was amazing as well as the staff. Thank you.

I’ve been several times since the restaurant opened. The food is delicious! My favorite is the smoked chicken panini sandwich that’s available on the lunch menu. Fantastic!

I walked in and there for one is no air circulating. I just want to say that I probably won’t be back for the amount they charged for a medium baked potato in comparison to Blazing trails jumbo baked potatoes located a mile south of West Frankfort if your willing to drive. The left or top picture is Dave’s medium potato compared to the jumbo blazing trails baked potato on the right or bottom. Dave’s is almost 15 and I believe Blazing Trails is 13 unless there are new prices due to the Tarriffs. So you guys pick the public can decide.

Excellent ribs. Really BIG baked potatoes cooked right. Excellent service. Nice clean surroundings. I'll be back.
My husband and I both had the brisket. I had a chopped sandwich plate and he had a chopped plate. Both came with one side. He had the smokehouse beans and I had the mac and cheese. Both were very good. For dessert, we had the apple crisp a la mode. It was delicious! It wasn’t overly sweet and had an oat crumb topping. My husband, who bakes much more than I do, said he could tell they used real butter in the topping. The dessert was just enough for the two of us.
We’ll definitely be back now that we know there’s brisket close by.
